Back to Basics

posted on: Saturday, July 11, 2015








T Shirt Dresses and Tennis shoes are a match made in heaven. I finally found the perfect style from Twenty Tees that I can casually wear around LA to run errands and lounge around with one of my dear photog friends... the amazing Samuel. This dress really captures the easy breezy laid back lifestyle Ive always dreamed of having living in LA :)....Don't get me wrong sometimes things are always a lot harder than they seem ;)

Soft Signature Daytime Look

posted on: Friday, June 19, 2015







Creating a soft natural day time look is more simple thank you think! I love to keep my makeup natural and fresh. Less is ALWAYS more! 

I have created a customizable eyeshadow palette using a mix of gold and neutrals from BUXOM eyeshadow bar!
Form left to right the colors I chose are: Invite only, matte terra cotta, golden brass, matte vanilla, metallic taupe and shimmering frost

My secret to soft even application is to apply tinted moisturizer type of foundation all over the face using my hands! Buxom weightless foundation is skin pampering and delivers breathable coverage that increases hydration and brightens the skin lasting up to 8 hours! I absolutely love it! follow with " Intoxicate" blush.


 For my base and my inner eye I brushed shimmering frost gently around to give my eyes that  brightening effect. Next I used a combination of invite only and matte terra-cotta in the crease, and a dash of golden brass to add a little bit of glow! secret tip: lightly brush shimmering frost under your brow to create the perfect arch! Each shadow includes a primer base to lock in the color all day long!

 You can customize the same EYESHADOW bar as me or create your own with 40 different shades to choose from!


Thank you Buxom for partnering with me to create this soft subtle look!

Beauty is in your Biology

posted on: Wednesday, June 10, 2015







It has been a while since I have done a beauty post for you guys! Finally I have found a product that has visually made a difference. It is super important to take care of your skin, especially for those of you who live in the dry desert heat like me! 

It has been incredibly hard to find the perfect moisturizer that works well on my face for this season.  This plant derived serum leaves your skin noticeably replenished, revitalized and instantly hydrated.

Fun Fact: Did you know that the beauty of you skin relies on natural moisturizers found in the body on of which is called squalene. An active ingredient found in Biossance

Biossance has incorporated a very special  30 day expert program tailored for our 5 target phases of a woman's life. Biossance  created a customized program of weekly newsletters and blog content for each phase to bring them through their sampling experience with relevant content for their mind and body! Not to mention this product is extremely affordable
