Highlights from Oscars Weekend 2015

A few weeks ago I had the pleasure of working a Pre-Party for the Academy Awards.  The event started with a gifting suite showcasing products from different vendors, followed by a party at the Beverly Hilton.  My hairstylist friend Stacy (OC Hair and Makeup) and I shared a booth, doing hair and makeup for celebrity and press photos.  

This event was hosted by Real Housewives of Orange County star Gretchen Rossi and Chris Booke.

Gift bags my assistant Jessica and I put together.  Each bag contained some of my favorite products to use in my studio!  I selected an assortment of lip liners, cream blushes and lipsticks in various colors.
