DC Model Contest

Hey guys!

I'm so excited to be participating in the 1st annual DC Model contest and  Fashion show!!
 I'm working on a team with Russian Designer Evgenia Luzhina Salazar and the guys at Sun Sight Photography.
Make sure to check out each of their websites!  Evgenia is an artist of many sorts--an amazing painter, interior designer and Russian costume designer.  The guys at Sun Sight are photographers and videographers headed for much success in 2011.  I'm going to be doing stylized Russian inspired make up to compliment Evgenia's clothing.  The guys are going to be taking runway shots and working on a documentary style video of the whole fashion show.  

There are going to be celebrity judges (Michaele Salahi), food and prizes for all the models.  Check out the model contest website to see about getting tickets!  I hope to have photos to post when the event is over!  Have a great weekend, everyone!

New Vendor!

Hey guys (and future brides)!

I just met with a new vendor tonight that I'm going to be adding to my vendor list and telling all of my brides about.  She is Dottie Sheldon, owner of Pearls of Wisdom, a wedding planning company.  She's a great, high energy lady that will make SURE your wedding day will go off with out a hitch. 

She's been planning everything from weddings to anniversary parties for over 10 years and would love the opportunity to meet future brides in the DMV!  Check out her website and give her a call if you'd like to chat with her about her services!  

More later!

Lip Care

Hey guys!

I just wanted to post a few tips about how to get really soft lips during the winter months!  The first step, like a lot of first steps in basic health, is drinking a lot of water.  It helps to keep your skin and entire body hydrated, which will make you lips feel softer.  The second step is to use a good lip exfoliator a  few times a week.  My favorites are Smashbox Emulsion Lip Exfoliant.


 
 
 
 
 
 
 
I like this because it's made of natural ingredients, so it's ok if you swallow some.  It's s sugar scrub with poppy seeds and other ingredients to take all the dead skin off of you lips.  I use this on my brides before weddings.  All I do is put a little on a lip brush and dab it on the bride's lips.  The rub their lips together for about a minute, and after, lips feel 100% smoother.  Finish it with a lip balm and your lips will feel great all day.
My second favorite is something my sister in law Becky got me a year or so ago.  It's an exfoliator and balm all in one by Tarte.  One side is the sugar based lip exfoliator and the other side is the vanilla flavored lip balm.  Just rub the exfoliant side on your lips for a few seconds and wipe the excess off with a tissue.  Go over your lips with the lip balm side and finish with your favorite lipstick or gloss.  It's that easy!  I hope you all try some of these products!
