Today I wanted to share a tutorial using none other than the totally sexy Urban Decay Smoky Palette which I previously reviewed here. Although there are a variety of looks that you can create with this palette, I thought it would only be appropriate to share its namesake look: the smoky eye.

This smoky is very red carpet glamorous but not too over-the top so I consider it more of an everyday smoky you'd wear on a date night or going to a special event.

Yes mom, you can wear red lips with a smoky eye! *teenage angst*

Ahh, London, how I adore you! The breathtaking architecture, the royal palaces, beautiful gardens, and of course the epicenter for the impeccably dressed during London Fashion Week. London just oozes history and charm and I was absolutely elated to join the Burberry team to experience it first hand.

Our trip started off with visiting Covent Garden to pop into the Burberry Beauty Box, a boutique featuring the entire Burberry Beauty range as well as fragrances and a scarf bar. I personally loved the giant My Burberry perfume bottle outside and wished I could take it home with me. :)

Hey everyone! If you follow me on Instagram or Twitter you may have already heard that I had the incredible opportunity to partner with Burberry and travel across the pond to London to attend the Burberry Spring/Summer 2016 fashion show to help promote Burberry Beauty's new launch at Sephora.

In addition to seeing the presentation up close, I also got to join press to check out the red carpet and got a backstage pass to see the day-of details for the beauty look the models wore. The 3-part combo was both a first for the brand as well as a dream to experience for me. I'm still a little breathless after that gorgeous, whirlwind trip!


I'll be sure to dedicate a future blog post to my experience, but today I wanted to share my take on Burberry's edgy Spring/Summer 2016 look which works equally well for rocking this Fall!


We're going to start off using the Face Contour pen on the hollows of the cheeks, sides of the nose, and under the jawline to add definition. I find shade Medium No. 01 to look really natural on my skintone. You can use a brush to blend, but I find fingers work excellently to warm the product and blend really smoothly.

Hey everyone! I am so thrilled to share with you a project that I've secretly been working on for the last several months: The GRAVITY jewelry collection!

Anyone who knows me knows that I've always loved collecting nice jewelry, especially pieces that I can wear and layer on a daily basis so when Mejuri came to me with the opportunity to design pieces of my own, I was overjoyed to give my design muscles a stretch and jumped in head first with my pencil and sketch pad!
