Pretty in Pink!
I like the trends of color going on so I gathered up some of my favorite pinks from Serenity+Scott.
#1- Pink Bubbles(G10) a spearmint flavored, very opaque lip-gloss with high color impact. These glosses from Serenity+Scott more importantly do not have a sticky finish.
#2 Claire(S55) eye-shadow is a beautiful crease color. This color is actually named after Claire Danes from the tv series Homeland. Serenity and Scott meet with Homeland’s Makeup Artist and created this color for her character to wear for the show.
#3 Phlox(S35) eye-shadow gives a soft iridescent pink that looks great for a pink lid or as a soft crease color.
#4 Georgia Peach(S22) eye-shadow is one of my favorites to add to the crease. Soft and subtle gives warmth to lid or crease. I add this color on top of Georgetown (S28) a lot.
#5 Coral Reef(B5) blush is beautiful pop of color with just a hint of shimmer to give you that summer glow.
#6 Haute Pink(NL7) is what I call my Nicki Minaj pink. This pink delivers a powerful punch of color to the lip. Add this underneath Pink Bubbles and POW! you have a beautiful bold pink lip.
Spring in your new look!
From Serenity+Scott Beauty I have picked some products to help “spring in” the new you.
#1 – I always start a face with the eyes. I find that if you plan for accidents they won’t happen, so if some of the shadow falls out then wipe it off and continue on! Here I have chosen some Serenity+Scott eye shadows, from the top to the bottom, S2 Biscuit for the lid, S23 Peony mixed with S28 Georgetown for the crease.
#2 – I personally have very moody, oily skin. I love a product that can give me great coverage, not give me too much shine, not settle into places it shouldn’t, and STILL look like skin. The Skin Perfecting Foundation from Serenity+Scott is perfect for this.
#3 – Venice Beach blush is wonderful. It can that give you that light sun-kissed glow.
#4 – Brow Gels from Serentiy+Scott are the perfect way to achieve that full brow without anyone knowing. This “brow mascara” coats only the brow hair to give them more color and more depth. If you need a little fill-in I recommend finding an eye shadow color that matches your natural color. Then lightly apply a small dusting to your shape. Next apply the Serenity+Scott Brow Gel on top to help keep things in place for longer.
#5 – Serenity+Scott Mascara is non-waterproof but tear-proof buildable formula. The chunky brush allows you not to keep dipping back in for more product and adds great volume to the lash.
#6 – Her namesake Serenity lipstick is a beautiful shear warmer plum that adds a wonderful depth to you lips.
Fun Fact:
Lip Gloss was invented by Max Factor in 1930 for the ladies of black and white films. Women in the general population noticed and wanted the look. In 1932 Max Factor released “X-rated” lip gloss and continued producing that same formal until 2003.
The Makeup Show NEW YORK!!
Just landed yesterday and these two are already up to no good. Good Luck guys and knock them out of the water! MUAH XOXO!!!
One of my FAVORITE people to work with!
This past week has been a blast and a blur. I always have the most fun with stylist Morgan Purdy. Having this lovely lady on set is wonderful. Her career began as a New York model and has taken her to behind the camera. That alone makes her priceless on a set. Her carefree persona, on point and forward thought adds a warmth to every set I have ever worked with her on. Love, love, love this beautiful lady. 
Out on the job.
One thing I love about commercial work is the places it takes me. This photo is of one of the many taxidermy pieces that where in the wardrobe and makeup room. Unfortunately we weren’t there for them but for the beautiful lodges and views. Be back next week.
Skin focused
Spring time! To achieve that glow Ren and I packed a Serenity+Scott bag filled with products that brighten the skin. First off good skin care is always a must. From Mario Badescu we chose Rose Water Facial Spray and Vitamin C Serum. The Rose spray is great as a hydrating toner but also keep a small bottle of it in your bag and spray a little for a boost of hydration. The Vitamin C serum aids in fighting off damaging free radical AND vitamin C helps in lightening and brightening skin. From Femme Science we chose the Under Eye Renewal. This eye treatment is my favorite, I call it my hangover cure. Packed with Coq10, green tea extrat, and much more Eye Renewal helps in depuffing the puff, stimulates blood flow to lighten dark circles, and fights off fine lines.
In makeup we chose the Balm’s Balm Shelter with an spf of 18, Serenity+Scott‘s Dual Action concealer,and highlighters from Serenity+Scott. Tinted moisturizers are great for soft coverage and often have a small spf to help protect your skin. The Dual Action Concealers from Serenity+Scott are super light weight with fantastic coverage. Most concealers are dry looking but these concealers are more of a dewy finish. To add a little something extra hit the cheek with a highlighter from Serenity+Scott. A perfect way to brighten up the skin. 
Speaking of Lynn…
I was so honored to be apart of The Scene campaign last year. Lynn Harty and her team and everyone from the The Scene where so much fun to work with. We all had a blast despite all the icy conditions and crazy weather. I am little late in blogging about it but I was floating around and I thought I would share.
