I was blown away by Brandy Miller, when she sent me a email saying, ”I saw your featured guest information on the Radio Guest List and wanted to reach out. I am putting together a magazine tailored toward women executives who may not be living up to their full leadership potential. The magazine is tentatively titled Trend Setters…because real leaders don’t follow trends, they set them.”

“Would you be interested in being interviewed and an article written up about your work?”

After my jaw hit the floor, and the initial shock wore off, I responded with a, “OMFG, YES! Thank you Brandy, I am beyond honored and excited!”

So here is the magazine cover of Leading Trends Magazine Fall 2020! I am very proud and honored!

How to Prevent "Pale Blondes" Using Makeup

1. Using your favorite foundation add a tiny drop of a foundation that’s three shades darker to just warm up your skin a bit. It adds a touch of warmth and color without being too much.

2. Filling in your brows frames your eyes , gives a very polished look. When hair is very light you can look incredibly washed out with pale brows. Using a taupe shade of a brow pencil or a shadow, gives a soft subtle touch that will definitely accentuate your eyes.

3. Having light hair means that your lashes are typically very light . Using a dark brown or black mascara will definitely give a pop to your lashes and brighten up your eyes.

4. A classic red or fuchsia lip give a classic Hollywood touch.

5. A swipe of bronzer to cheeks,forehead and chin will give that look of being in Cabo for the weekend without the damage to your

Brow Do's and Don't s

Do…

  • Be in a well lit room with a mirror

    • Avoid hand mirrors, one should be able to see both eyes at all times

    • Free from distractions, give your brows the attention they deserve

The warmer, the less painful

  • It’s important to note that before attempting to do your brows on your own, the skin needs to be plain, clean, and particularly warm. Taking a warm shower or using a warm washcloth is advised because with warm skin comes open pores, so the pain usually inhibited while doing your brows is minimized entirely. I find that morning time is the best, right after a shower with the light is at its peak. Waiting until the end of the day could be risky, as we’ve all had long days that seem to lead to a surprise Zoom Cocktail hour is going to lead to a potentially scary situation. The skin should be free of any product, oil, or cream, which may, in turn, result in irritation of the skin or over/under plucking in areas in which they do not need to be plucked. I would recommend a good micellar water to ensure the skin is clean before starting into your brows.
