Evette...Mommy to be

I met Evette several years ago through my sister... Ive known her through her college years, then she got married, and now she is pregnant!....and almost due! I was so excited to get to see her so close to her due date, and actually see that she is human and that her belly did grow to a normal size, cuz for those of you who know her she is the fittest of fit! Evette even pregnant is just gorgeous! She has this calming energy to her and a very peaceful way about her! I think the setting and look of the entire shoot was really her! I wanted to keep her as natural as possible because of the type of shoot we were doing...so i waved her hair with a smoothing iron, and really glossed it up to give it a lot of shine. I didnt do a lot of teasing because I dodnt want any height really, i just wanted to keep it like her but with a lil something. As for the makeup, Evette is usually very natural, and doesnt wear too much makeup, so it wouldt fit her or the type of shoot if I would have done anything too heavy. I stayed in neutral palletes of cremes, tans and browns, lining just the corner of her eyes to give them a little depth for the camera. As for the skin she has a gorgeous tan color so i just highlighted and contoured in the eye and cheekbone area to give her some definition! Lastly the lips were just a golden pink hue by lancomes juicy tubes...love the color selections of those, but not so much the taste :) Here are her pics by Alicia The Moderntype

Time for Shine

A lot of people always ask me what is your favorite product? and my answer has been PM Shines since the very first time I used it! All of my closest family and friends are in on it, so I thought I should let all of you in on one of my best kept secrets!

What is it?

PM SHINES™ translucent hydrating color is a deposit only, ammonia-free demi-permanent hair color. It consists of 27 intermixable colors and a Clear Shine, which can be mixed with the total color palette to create a multitude of colors. PM SHINES™ have been developed with an exclusive Intense Hydrating Complex (IHC) that penetrates deep into the hair shaft to intensely hydrate and help replenish amino acids lost during the coloring process.

Why do I love it?

it's easy, quick, and simply amazing* PM SHINES are easy to use, delivering true to tone, long-lasting, healthy looking hair color with exceptional shine and condition.

It's called PM Shines for a reason

The gentle formula coupled with a unique conditioning agent derived from Meadowfoam Seed penetrates into the hair shaft to help repair damage and intensify surface shine. I don't know of any other color line that can produce this much shine!

There's more to it than just shine

HYDRATING and CONDITIONING: IHC (Intense Hydrating Complex) penetrates deep into the hair shaft, intensely hydrating while helping replace lost amino acids

LONG-LASTING: An ammonia-free formula imparts less structural damage to the hair providing a smoother, healthier surface. UV absorbers help reduce environmental damage and keep color from fading.
