Giveaway Winner!!!

Kevin and I sat down (now that we are both healthy LOL) and went through all of the pictures sent in and Kevin was very vocal about which one he wanted to do. I was surprised at how quickly he chose it and how he kept going back to the same picture (giggle). So without further ado here is the winning picture:

Sent in by Stacey. Congrats! =D You are the winner of the Sigma F80 Foundation Brush!!!! There were some very beautiful pictures sent in that I loved and I am going to be doing some of them for SURE!!! I loved all the smokey eyes sent in and the character makeup as well. Some of the natural eyes were simply stunning! =) Thank you to all that sent in pictures and be looking for our 1000+ giveaway coming soon!!! Stacey can you send me your information where you would like your brush sent? Thanks again ladies!

Published...And A Giveaway!!!

Former stylist and Hollywood event producer Jet Moody (how much do you already love her based solely on her name?) contacted me wanting me to do a Q&A on makeup for her new site. I was ThRiLlEd and excited. Jet moved back to Utah not too long ago and was kind of sick about the fact that there really wasn't a site to inform ladies about all things fashion going on. Boutiques opening up, designer shows, up and coming artists and the like. Well thank heavens for HER right?!? ; D I was super excited about the idea of getting correct makeup concepts into the hands of readers. I mean isn't that what I do here on the blog? I'm by no means an expert. You're learning, I'm learning and well, that's just a happy place I think! I would love for you guys to go and check it out and tell me what you think!!! Will you??? Pretty please??? =D Here's the link: http://www.fashionutah.com/a-sit-down-with-classy-cosmetics/ 

ALSO!!!!!!!! I loved doing that cute tutorial with Kevin but ladies I am NOT about to tell him we have had not one SINGLE picture sent!!!!! I think his poor little feeling would be hurt. I am ALSO going to leave out the fact that I am now about to BRIBE you to send some in!!! You know that I absolutely aDORE my F80 foundation brush from Sigma. It buffs everything in so perfectly and holds a good amount so you actually use less.....once you experience your fist application (HA!).

So who will be the first to find an image that Kev needs to copy and send it to me? Send me a link, send me the actual pic to my email or pop the picture in the mail! =) This offer will go until I get at LEAST 5 pics to choose from. Help me out here ladies! I will keep you updated as to how many entries we get. I also never did my 1,000 subscribers giveaway and I have a HUGE makeup case to giveaway!!! Any of my readers in NY? I will be coming there the 9th-11th, yes NEXT WEEK!!! I'm so excited. My FIRST trip to the big apple!!!!! =D Okay, get to finding pictures. Send in as many as you want!

Votre Vu Review and CONTEST!!!!!

Here is my review of the French skin care line Votre Vu. I went to a really classy party where this was introduced and was pleased that Marti asked me to review the line. She is an ambassador with Votre Vu and was eager for me to try it out and see the results I was wanting.  I personally wanted to help my poor face even out a bit more after having a reaction to something. My mother-in-law also tried the line for a week and will be giving us her review soon as she is out of town on an extended stay in Utah. I will be placing a link to Marti's website in the side bar so that you can call her and ask all of your questions =).
