And the Emmy goes to...

Hello my dear Vixens!
 I have neglected you in your times of need! I promise to be better but I am only human! Ha ha! Ok moving right along.... As you may or may not know, I have had the privilege of working the Emmy's for the past 3 years. This year my client's tripled from the previous! Whoo hoo! Work work work! Between the creative Emmys (yes that exsists), the pre Emmy parties, the Emmy's themselves and let's not forget the after parties it is important that your hair and makeup get you through these events! I mean who wants to walk the red carpet with smeared eyeliner and flat hair? The answer is no one! and I can bet your ass if that happens you won't be getting booked the next year either!  Working with the most prestigious people in the industry means having all the right materials to get the job done! Which is why I created a list of my Emmy award winning products that got me and my client's through the awards season this year.... and the first Emmy goes to....

MAKE UP FOR EVER HD Microfinish Powder, $30      
Everything is in HD these days! This means major changes and breakthroughs in makeup! Ever see someone walking the carpet that looks like a melting Picasso? Think Nicole Kidman a few years back. She wasn't equipped with HD makeup! This powder is super duper fine making it easy to slide into those pores... or should I say what pores? Yes it is that incredible. Use it as a last finishing touch to set in all makeup. It is ok for pretty much all skin tones but use very very sparingly to avoid looking white or cakey. A little (I mean teeny tiny) bit goes a LONG way which also means more bang for your buck! Amazing!
       The next Emmy goes to...


Smashbox Photo Finish Foundation Primer, $36 - $49
    Not to prime is a crime! This fills in pores, fine lines and unwanted nonsense. This makes the skin a smooth canvas to work on and also helps everything to stay on longer. Not much to say but use it! It helps!
 The next Emmy goes to...

Maybelline Washable Mascara
Maybeline falsies mascara is my new lover! I am sickly obsessed with this mascara! I did not even need to apply one fake eyelash this year! Thank you Maybeline falsies I LOVE YOU! (Hey I said sickly obsessed). Best mascara I have ever used and it's only $7.50! LOVE!
Last but not least.... The Emmy goes to...

Urban Decay All Nighter Long-Lasting Makeup Setting Spray, $11 - $29
Before I leave my client  I spray a mist of the setting spray. I can leave confident knowing that my clients will withstand the lights of the red carpet, the camera's and the late night cocktails or at least their makeup will. Don't be caught without it! Thanks so much! Check back in for the hair portion of the Emmy's! Coming soon.... xoxoxoxo
