"If applying makeup feels like a chore you are doing it all wrong. Have fun, step outside your box and if red lipstick seems scary, wear it! After all, it comes off at the end of the night. I hope to get you excited about looking and feeling your best." - Marla Del Angel

This weekend @ Bon Ton Milwaukee
Having to wake up at 6am on a Sunday is my least favorite thing but it's all worth it once I get to paint beautiful faces. Had the pleasure of shooting with Max @ Bon Ton in Milwaukee. The beautiful Becca @ Ford models was my perfect canvas.

Skin Is in
While most of my beauty hauls are for my professional kit, I make it a point to keep my personal kit stocked with my beauty essentials. I met with Denise at Saks Michigan Ave for replenishment on my skincare. Denise is a beauty advisor for Chanel and knows her stuff! She's extremely knowledgable and lots of fun to shop with. The girl hooks it up with tons of beauty treats and samples. Stop by and sit in her chair.
I've used La Mer for some time now and truly love the results it delivers for my skin. I was using the La Mer eye concentrate and liked it but wasn't in love. This time around I switched to Sisley eye gel and can immediately feel the difference around my eyes after only a few applications. The texture is amazing!
I will say that the creme de La Mer will remain my staple moisturizer. I absolutely love the rich texture and how hydrated and glowy my skin looks and feels. I was overdue for a brightening serum and decided on the La Mer essence intense. I will have to give the serum a review in few weeks.
This morning I woke up and gave my skin a little extra TLC after a long and fun weekend.

Wing Stop Mango Habanero
We seriously had a blast shooting this commercial for Wingstop. Being able to snack on wings that were not being shot was a total perk! Thanks to an awesome crew who made an overnight shoot lots of fun!
Work hard play hard
It has been a blessed year so far and I am so fortunate to work year round as a freelance artist. Sometimes I forget to stop and smell the roses because quite frankly, I would rather be painting rosed colored lips. I took some time off to enjoy some fun in the sun on the beautiful beaches of Puerto Rico. My beautiful friend Kerre who is also a makeup and hair artist met me up and we rocked out on the island. 
The trip was exactly what I needed! Now I'm back completely refueled and ready to bust out the brush set!
