Here is what I managed to pick up at The Makeup Show Chicago 2013. I’ve been so busy I haven’t gotten to play with anything yet but at least I can share what items caught my eye with you guys. If you haven’t checked out my post on my Makeup Show experience yet click here.
On June 8th I flew out to Chicago to attend The Makeup Show at the Bridgeport Art Center for the very first time. For those who are unfamiliar, The Makeup Show is a traveling beauty event featuring key note speakers, demos, exhibitors, and networking for those in the beauty industry. Basically, it’s a makeup artists dream come true with companies giving discounts on products and being able to get up close and personal with celebrity artists.
Amy is Cara’s sister (in case you didn’t see the resemblance, what a gorgeous family!) from my last post (link found here) and also one of my favorite past brides. Below is info on products used to achieve this look.
Cara’s big day is quickly coming up and not only am I lucky enough to be her bridal makeup artist but I got to do her makeup for her bachelorette party as well. Below is info on products used to achieve this look.
Black eyeliner is one of those must-have beauty items for anyone who likes defining and bringing focus to their eyes. It’s a product that pretty much every brand carries but don’t be fooled into thinking they are all made equal. If you are on the market for a new favorite, here are my top three black eyeliners.
Danielle was one of my favorite brides from my 2012 season, she had SO much personality and really had fun with her makeup for her big day. Below is the look we came up with. Thanks for being a wonderful client, Danielle!

Last weekend I collaborated with Vain Salon and Mad Chicken Studio, some of my very favorite talented people in the business, on a creative photo shoot with Rachel as our astounding model. I had the concept of doing a very summer feeling makeup look featuring nautical inspired details. This is what I came up with and seeing as it has a prominent “red, white, and blue” color palette I thought no better day to post than the 4th of July, Independence Day. Below you will find all the products I used to achieve this nautical/patriotic makeup look.
A quick iPhone capture for you guys.
With Summer FINALLY here (for now) in Duluth I thought I would do a short post on a few of my all time favorite products for the sunny months.
Daisy wanted something bronzed, beautiful, and not too dramatic with a pink lip for her big day. This is the look we came up with together. Check below for products used to achieve this gorgeous beachey bridal look!
Just a quick photo I snapped with my phone, wish I had better photos! Continue reading
