Final Juice Plus Conference in Phoenix notes!

Hello Gorgeous!
I am a bit rested now-getting ready for church. Here's a wee recap and share from the Phoenix conference for Juice Plus.

Last night, I stayed in and the rest of the crew went out to the Chase Field for an Arizona Diamondbacks vs Los Angeles Dodgers game!  I so wanted to go! I was so tired and I had so much to do to get ready for my next event that it made good business sense to stay in. Though my party bone was itchin'!

Here's my well laid out table after the long and fun weekend. Everything seems to be everywhere!
I must admit, the stars of the show were UNITE Expanda Dust, OC8 mattifier and Laura Mercier Brownberry gloss.

It always surprises me what people say they like!

Ok, my makeup kit is packed and it's time to take down the lights. That is, after one quick creepy selfie styled in old Hollywood horror movie lighting!

 Now, this week it is a time of rest and fun as my family gets ready to celebrate Passover and Easter. We have so many fun family events planned! I'll post pics as we travel.

As for now, I pray you and your family are enjoying some sweet time together!

Coachella beauty tip with Charlotte Tilbury

Hello Gorgeous-
I just got back from the Phoenix conference. More on that later. For now enjoy these Coachella beauty tips from Charlotte Tilbury!

Coachella is the ultimate cool, bohemian festival that often informs beauty trends and fashion styles for the season. The desert setting means dewy, creamy textures work well, rather than powder-based products which can slip off in the heat. These tips from Charlotte will keep you looking gorgeous from Coachella to Governor’s Ball and everywhere in between:

·                  Coachella is all about fringed crop-tops, and leg-baring denim cut-offs; so make like Gisele and use a moisturizing, gleam-getting, gorgeous illuminator cream to highlight your arms, legs, and décolletage. For the face, mix a high SPF with a light-reflecting illuminator like Tom Ford’s Summer Skin Illuminator for glowing protection. Build up the sheen on temples, cheeks and nose to mimic where the sun would light up the face.

·                  Create a seductive smoky eye in seconds with a crème eye shadow pen – you can keep it in your shoulder bag. Sweep over the eyelids, smudging outwards and upwards with your finger to create a winged look. For added summer sexiness, smudge underneath the lower lash line too.

·                  Add a pop of color to bronzed, freckled skin by using a striking stain on the lips – experiment with eye-catching coral, berry and plum tones of Becca’s Beach Tint. Cheat a smattering of freckles by painting them in using a soft, taupe eyeliner.

·                  Lipstick is your best friend. Vamp up your ethereal maxi-dress with a crimson pout and blend a little color onto the apples of the cheeks for an effortlessly pretty, dewy glow.

·                  Keep a little stash of pointed Q-tips, some face-wipes (festival is the only acceptable occasion to use these!) and a mini pot of moisturizer in your emergency kit. A Q-tip can help fix a poised feline flick on even the wildest of dance floors.

Coachella and Juice Plus : the weekend

Hello Gorgeous,
Well, let's just round out the Juice Plus conference in Phoenix as I transfer to Coachella.

Let's just say: makeup is amazing and transferrable!

 So here I am hanging on to the goodness at the Phoenix Juice Plus conference

 John Frieda hair irons abound! Why? Because they are so good and so effective and so affordable!

 I've got my Juice Plus men speakers covered with the basics: I take the shine off their nose and put it on their hair thanks to OC8 mattifier and Osmotics skincare with Acai shine spray by Brazillian Blowout.

Now for my Juice Plux ladies, I use YBF primer on top of beautyADDICTS creme to powder foundation with cheeks by Benefit and lips by itCosmetics. The lashes are courtesy of Sonia Kushak! 

What's the snack bar you say? It's the new Complete by Juice Plus. It has great texture, low calories, whole foods and all delicious. Need some? Ask your  JP rep!

 As for me, I'm enjoying the view from my room of the BOB, which by the way in Phoenix is now called the Chase Field. There  was a gig game between the Dbacks and the Los Angeles Dodgers-genes, sure, but I am more interested in rest!

So what does all of this have to do with the Coachella weekend? Well, back in the day I attended the first Coachella Music Festival and now that I am invited out to cover this weekend for beauty and brands, I have the option of attending on Sunday.

I will let you know how that turns out...
