I had the wonderful privilege of working with Donna Summer – a great talent, a great life and an even greater spirit. Her passing is an incredible loss to this world. We bow our heads in remembrance and great respect to a woman who gave us so much. RIP.
I had a wonderful time presenting at The Makeup Show NYC this past weekend. I wanted to share some of my favorite Make Up For Ever products that I used during my makeup demonstration.
Powder Brush 55N – a face brush, particularly perfect for applying a cream cheek color or contour
Matte Eye Shadows #000 – White, 003 – Eggshell, 015 – Bisque, 035 – Buff, 088 – Cotton Candy and 157 – Flesh Pink – kept in a 4 Eye Shadow & Blush Palette
Satiny Eye Shadows #128 – Copper Fawn and 133 – Baby Pink – I love shadow number 133 on the cheeks for a luminous shimmer with a touch of subtle color
Waterproof Eyebrow Corrector #0 and 2 – although intended for eyebrows, the divine texture of this product makes it perfect for use on other areas of the face
Aqua Cream colors #1 – Anthracite, 19 – Purple, 21 – Turquoise and 13 – Warm Beige
Full Cover Extreme Camouflage Cream, #01 – Pink Porcelain and 03 – Light Beige – this incredible cream allows you to really control its coverage, adding more to conceal and applying only a sheer layer to even out the skin
I hope everyone had a great and inspiring time at The Makeup Show NYC!

I worked on this shoot some time ago but I wanted to share these beautiful images of Naomi Watts from WestEast Magazine.
Naomi was wonderful to work with, she truly transformed into Marilyn.
This collaboration between NARS and Thakoon is pure optimism at your finger tips, or should I say on your finger nails?
Rush to get your hands on these vibrant and exciting colors.

I had so much fun working with Paula Patton for the Neiman Marcus Spring 2012 edition of The Book. There was such great energy on this shoot!
When I am on set Kett Sett powder is a staple in my kit. Its invisible design performs under the most scrupulous of situations where heavy powder can’t afford to be observed or maximum coverage and minimal texture is required. Its convinient and practical formulais designed to be used with all skin tones. It instantly leaves a flawless invisible matte finish. You can apply it with a powder brush, sponge or powder puff.
Last week I had such a fabulous time working with Model Erin Wasson for Maybelline. She has such an amazing spirit and is absolutely gorgeous! We spent 2 fantastic days together! I must also mention how great it was to work with hairstylist Peter Butler. He is an incredible artist and is always such a delight. 
Had the pleasure of working with the fabulous model Alli Cripe from Click Models.
She was truly amazing!
Skin – Yonka
Lashes — Paperself
Lips – OCC Lip Tar
Eyes — M.A.C
If your searching for an incredible start to your day in Montauk, NY head over to Joni’s. Known for her incredible smoothies, wraps and the best blueberry muffins I have ever tasted!
