Fall Lipstick Trends You Can Wear Now

 Hi ya Gorgeous!

Here in Arizona the weather is changing. It is the tiniest bit but just enough to let me know that Fall is on it's way here. True, in the rest of the country, the official beginning of the season change was yesterday, though for the desert, it's s till going to be some time before Han Solo uniform days are here!

What's that you say? It's my fave cool weather outfit: tall boots, skinny jeans, some sort of shirt and one of my vests - just pick one!

Today's post has some lip trends you will see in this season: either the super dark berry red black a la Vamp circa Chanel 1994 or a peach nude in a semi matte finish.

Generation Beauty 2016 review

Hi ya Gorgeous,
Today is a sideways "throwback Thursday".
First, I have a fresh review of my recent trip to Los Angeles for Generation Beauty by Ipsy. In the spirit of all things #tbt, here are some photos from the 2015 Generation Beauty event I attended.

 This is the Beauty Content Creator gift bag from the invite only reception the night before the event.

 Oh last time, it was so much fun to go to the party and meet so many fellow beauty bloggers and YouTube beauty gurus.

 But of course, there was the usual cluster mug of "Line Closed" and crowd management issues.

So, now-let's take a look at this year's review.



And second, I'll have some commentary.  Cheers to you having an awesome and amazing day!

Who is going to Ipsy Generation Beauty at LA Live in January?

 Hi ya Gorgeous!

I've attended all of the Generation Beauty events by Ipsy at LA Live.
They are amazing for the beauty content creator or beauty enthusiast.

So this time around, I would like to do something different for the event!

Makeup University has two opportunities for the Generation Beauty event this month:
1) For the beauty lover who is attending, come join me for an on camera collab!  Watch the video for more info!



2) For the beauty lover who is NOT attending, Makeup University is giving away the goodie bag being given to attendees. Stay tuned for details on how to win that.

I pray this is your best beauty year ever!

GRWM video: Ipsy OS edition!

Happy Monday!
(*Update: p.s. Sorry, in the hustle and bustle I forgot to put the video in! I have a marathon recap post coming up tomorrow!)

I love Mondays!

It's been a busy weekend in Las Vegas with the Rock n Roll marathon.
What an amazing run! It was surreal to run down the Las Vegas Blvd strip all lit up and music blaring!

Now it's time to get ready for a trip to Ipsy OS for the Makeup University Holiday Gift Guide!

True story, I meant to edit and post this video first but one thing led to another and somehow it has become the last October Ipsy OS video that I have posted.

So here's the story from the last trip to Santa Monica, enjoy!

August already? SoHo beauty bags for your BTS & LBD

Hi ya Gorgeous!
Happy Saturday and happy August.
Well. Sort of.
School starts back on Monday meaning the summer is over for us. The heat is still here, though the wanton days of fun and meandering will cease as the rigors of school life comes back. Sigh. Such is life.

 So back to school it is! Maybe take some SoHo beauty bags with you?

EDC: get ready with me and Buxom by Bare Minerals

Hi ya Gorgeous!
Woot woot! Honk honk! Who is going to EDC in Las Vegas?

Truth, not me. But! There are so many events filling this week leading up to EDC that even if you don't have a ticket to the main event, you can still enjoy some EDC activity like the Downtown Las Vegas party with the Stitch Factory!

Now this post is titled "get ready with me" because I have been seeing a ton of those types of videos on YouTube. I'm not quite ready to make a video of me getting ready, but here is me getting ready with the Generation Beauty by Ipsy in Los Angeles haul of makeup from the Buxom line in Bare Minerals.

It's a rose smokey eye and light pink lips and beachy wave hair using all of this...

Shabbat Shalom from Phoenix!

Well Gorgeous,
It's Friday afternoon and I'm about to get my Shabbat on with Chante and her family. The Phoenix Fashion Week Launch party was awesome! Pics and details on Twitter!

Now as I start my rest, enjoy this video roundup of my experience at Generation Beauty 2015 in Los Angeles.
A week late? Yep. Maybe a little bit more! Sorry-I've been so busy and traveled alot!

How to use the Generation Beauty app for the New York City

Holla Gorgeous!
Happy Monday. I love Mondays!
Now it's over a week since I have attended the Generation Beauty event in Los Angeles at the LA Live event deck.

Loved it! In fact, I will have my review videos and product review posts coming out this week. Why so long?

 Because when I got home last Monday, I instantly launched into LEGO Robotic Camp Mom mode for my Mancub's week of engineering and building robots.
I created a "how to" video for the Generation Beauty app. Why? Because it's news I wish I had before I got to the event. Yes, I had a plan. But I didn't have enough of a plan or a Plan B, Plan C and a Plan C 1/2.

Now about that video...

Generation Beauty: Day 2 experience is awesome!

Hi ya Gorgeous!
Happy Monday! The Generation Beauty event in Los Angeles at LA Live was cray cray amazing! So much fun!

Special thanks to #Smashbox and @smashboxcosmeticsevents with @ikhanicpix for the new headshot. Love it! Personally, I know, I know, I could possibly be a bit biased - but- Smashbox had the BEST booth at #GenBeauty.
Why?
First: Greeter. She was friendly and communicating the points of the booth while directing traffic to the different events going on in the booth. 
Second: Two lines for taking the guests to the artists for touchups.
Third: a photobooth with a wind machine. I'll post my photo on Instagram. (@CherelynnBaker)
Fourth: knowledgeable and welcoming staff to hand out the product sample. Oh, that is after I figured out I had one on the GenBeauty app and could redeem for a product.
Fifth: Donald Robertson decorated the Smashbox and made it feel like visiting part art exhibit and part studio session.  It was luxe all around and I loved it, felt welcomed and taken care of and it was so good I went back on day 2 for a second photo.
This one from professional photographer Steven Khan- I really like and will be using as my new avatar. Why? Because I have my hair and makeup on!

Now, let's finish a wee wrap up of the Generation Beauty event by Ipsy!

Generation Beauty: what happened at the opening night party and Day 1 per Makeup University

Hi ya Gorgeous!
Well, the trip has been something else so far! 
The drive out was wonderful. Uneventful. Actually, it's always the same for the most part. It's a wide open spanse of desert road filled with big trucks until I get to Barstow. Then it becomes an open flood gate of high speed traffic. Serenity now!

The weather here in Los Angeles is a very fine, 68 degrees! I got a pedicure and now I am ready for the party tonight at Ipsy Studios in Santa Monica.

 I took my very first Uber to the party! What a great experience too!
So here I am checked in at the party and ready to meet the other YouTubers!

I love a photo booth! The ladies in attendance were dressed in there best and finery! Such great makeup looks too! Let's just say, that lashes were in abundance.

 Now, it's not the tequila talking here-it's that my camera doesn't take great photos when far away and in low light settings.
That's Michelle Phan welcoming the guests and doing a bag giveaway! Oh grr slow phone service! You had to text a message and show it, and then the lucky gal who was first got a new purse. Oh am I ever in the market for a new purse!

 Yes! That is a light up dance floor! To kick the dancing off there was a guest Bboy dancer who did a routine that was outstanding!

 Oy. My head the next day! I enjoyed some Milagro tequila and then on my way out found the berry concoction flavored champagne! So natch I had some of that too.

 The party was amazing. I personally, am a radical giver and very generous. Michelle Phan and the Ipsy team are too! The party was a wonderful treat full of tasty snacks and flavorful libations. Let's just say-starting early is looking like a challenge...

Road trip! Ipsy Generation Beauty here I come!

Hello Gorgeous!
I need a personal Manny. Not sure what a Manny is? It's a male who does childcare instead of a woman.

My son. The LOVE of my life. Is always with me. On this epic trip with so many things going on; the LA Live Generation Beauty event by Ipsy (p.s. in case you have never seen the YouTube channel-he is always my big helper!), the Cinetransformers San Andreas screening, the Grammy Museum and let's just a say a lil ol' thing like staying a block from the BEACH!

I have to be 'on' and working the events, so I won't be fully available to meet Mancub's needs and discuss the situation or answer his questions. Plus these days are very, very long.

I wish I had a Manny who could travel with me and care for my child while I am working and then when I am free, be able to hand The Mancub back and let me enjoy the event with him.

Sigh.

Ok-back to Generation Beauty.

Generation Beauty bound wearing Rimmel Scandaleyes turquoise eyeliner

 Hi ya Gorgeous!
So excited!!! Generation Beauty in Los Angeles starts tomorrow. The official kick off is a cocktail party at the Ipsy Studios. Wee!

Part of the summer beauty looks for 2015 is really bright blue eyeshadow and eyeliner.

If you remember Mimi, you too, won't be wearing the bright blue eyeshadow. Now eyeliner, I can do!

The new Rimmel Scandaleyes 007 turquoise liner is gorgeous! It wears well, if super affordable to add to your summer beauty routine and on me, it doesn't smudge!

So get yo'self some!

Stay in touch over the weekend on Instagram @CherelynnBaker and on Twitter @Cherelynn for the latest in #GenBeauty news!

You can find Rimmel at mass retailers everywhere!

Top Ten Beauty Items in my Generation Beauty travel vanity case

Hi ya Gorgeous,
It's Tuesday, but it feels like a Monday due to the holiday. So rise and shine! Up and at it!

I will be traveling to L.A. Live for my third, ...must be a charm...visit to the Ipsy sponsored Generation Beauty event.

So stinkin' excited! This is the first time that I will be able to attend both days. So stoked! So bummed there is not a YouTube space L.A. party this year.

I know that I will be picking up a super fat swag bag of new beauty products, but-the real question is: what are the  top ten items that will be making the trip with me?

See this photo, this is the bare bones minimum that I will be taking with me.

So let's go through it!

Here are the top ten...

#GenBeauty in LA next week: you going?

Hi ya Gorgeous,
I'm about to start my shabbat, but before I do, I have a quick video for you and a question: are you going to #GenBeauty (Generation Beauty) by Ipsy next week in Los Angeles?

If yes, I would like to meet! I am looking for YouTube collaborators. Is that you?


Here is the video, comment on the video and tag #going and let's meet up!
I'm thinking cocktails at Wolfgang Pucks?

Shabbat Shalom!

Lather & LaurenB. Beauty give a mani ready for Fat Tuesday! Laissez les bons temps rouler!

Honk honk 'n' holler Gorgeous!
I'm not going out today or tonight to celebrate and indulge in Fat Tuesday. That was SO ten years ago...

But if I were, I would want a festive manicure-something that says modesty and Mardi Gras at the same time.

Meet LaurenB.Beauty and the other goodies I used in my manicure!
