It's another artistic expression that i truly enjoy. Thank you to all who have supported me on this journey!

Hooping practice.

Nothing fancy, just a dance jam, where I attempt some of my newer tricks.
I try to practice 20 minutes a day. It was really hot today, and my plan was to jump in the pool after, hence the swim suit.
I've also decided that my belly is a bit jiggly due to summer. So seeing this video is motivation to tighten up!!!

Hoop Adventures- raving

Taking a hoop to a rave or large club can be really great or super frustrating. People want to use your hoops,people will completely disrespect your hoops. It's a strange eb n flow. I bring mine everywhere I go, if I can. But last weekend I had to deal with both issues, which was not surprising. I'm glad that#1 b.A.D. ASS let me bring mine in. #2 the music, lights and energy was great. The bottle neck to get outside almost ate my hoops but I'm glad they resolved that quickly. #3 I'm glad Meredith got to experience such a cool party. And she fell in love with hooping!

I am most happy to share but sometimes I have to say no. And trying to get anywhere with multiple hoops in tow causes some congestion to say the least.

I still hooped my butt off. Got to play with my uv hoop in a blacklight and made some new friends and spread hoop love!

Wedding Make-up, Larson Wedding, May 19th

what a fabulous weekend!  Meredith Daniels and I drove up to Virginia to do the make-up for my Clients, the Larsons.  We did 14 faces Saturday Morning, before Chrissy got married.  the ladies looked spectacular and Meredith and I were a great team.
Pictures coming soon, as soon as I figure out how to get them from my phone to Blogger. 

I would really like to do more weddings.  I really enjoy working with families and bridal parties and making them all feel so beautiful.  I will be working in coming months to start establishing myself here in Charleston.  I'm also thinking about cosmetology school.  I'm well trained but it would be nice to have the certifications in SC to make everything official.

The look we designed for this wedding was a dramatic but elegant eye. Lots of purple,gold, bronze and pink. Not all together of course but the final result for each lady was spectacular. We also applied false lashes to everyone. Highlighted eyes and cheeks but kept cheeks and lips soft and rosy. Touch a gold glitter to finish the look.
Used mostly Bare Minerals and urban decay products. Fabulously beautiful!
