    Brukwine Dance Workout

    What are your plans tonight? Not big on the whole club scene, but love to dance? I can say that my club days are dwindling down but I truly miss hitting the dance floor. Dancing is totally fun and a great way to get some quality exercise in! Have you ever looked at a dancer’s body? Really check out their physique, in general their bodies are toned, slender  and incredibly fit. When a friend invited me to a dance class I gave her that look, but her excitement for Brukwine let me know that this was no ordinary class. She immediately pulled up their instagram page (@bruckwineaddiction)where I watched 15…

    Do you swirl?

    Do you swirl…your foundation, that is? I know I do! As a professional makeup artist I create flawless foundation for my clients. It’s high unlikely that a cosmetic company will get it right in just one shade. If you are a woman of color chances are you have multiple tones in your complexion. You can create a custom blend foundation for your perfect shade by mixing two or sometimes three shades together to create one. I simply add a lighter or darker foundation shade drop by drop until I create the desired color. Seasons play a big factor in your skin’s tone. Lets face it, in the summer the sun gives…

    Spooky Destinations

    As much as I love travel there are some places that I just won’t go! Xochimico is just south of Mexico City, you’ll find “The Island of the Dolls.” Don Julian Santana Barrera once found a little girl in the river who had drowned, and awhile after her death he found a floating doll in the river. To honor her, he hung the doll in the tree, and over the years he found more dolls, convincing him that each one held the spirit of a dead little girl. Im totally creeped out! Catacombs in Paris, an underground ossuary in Paris that holds the remains of about 7 million people. Part of…
