The Makeup Show NYC 2011
Makeup, seminars, workshops, and the top artists in the world – what more could a beauty lover ask for? Perhaps and interview with celebrity makeup artists Sam Fine and Billy B. Yes I interviewed them both. And that was just a small highlight of my weekend. The Makeup Show is the only all pro trade show around...

5 Ways to Transition to Natural Hair
I’ve been thinking about transitioning my hair to its natural curly waves for a while.

Kate Winslet in Vogue UK April 2011
