My Extensionz Photo shoot


Hello My Fellow Followers and Bloggers! 



I did a photo shoot for a new and upcoming business, My Extensionz. The company focuses on bring 100%  Fine Virgin Hair. It was a lot of fun doing makeup for these girls. They were all easy to work with and it was a pleasure shooting with them. Pretty much the main focus of these shoot was the hair. As you can see, all of the girls had 20' of hair of more. 

If you are looking for amazing 100% pure hair, you can go onto the website, myextensionz.com! Let me know if you go!

Below, this is going to be the location for the new store.The old Esquire Movie theater on Oak, which closed down over 10 years ago will house the new 1000 sq ft store. Its going to be on the very popular Oak Street in Downtown Chicago. Oak street hosts many popular retail stores, Barneys, MAC, Tori Burch, Tom Ford, BCBG, Gucci, etc. So the store will be fitting in the new home!

Val Wedding Makeup

Its Been a long time, but I'm back! Yay! 

Its about the time that I take this more seriously! So lets get back to what I know and love, Makeup!

First is Wedding season!

I had the pleasure of working with my bride Val. She got married on April 28, in a amazing church in Lockport, Il. (its about 35 minutes outside of Chicago)

Products I used: Eyes: naked lunch (mac), saddle (mac), print (mac) Royal Blue (chenman for mac limited edition), Lashes #21 (mac) Cheeks: dame and Fluer Power (mac); Lip: Angel (mac) and Oyster Girl (mac).

She loved her look and I was a pleasure working with her!

Here are a few pictures of the wedding below.




I love her dress! It was amazing in person. it was so elegant and completely fitting to her personality! 


Those three girls were her made of honor and her two sisters. 

She was amazingly glowing on this day. She was very happy! Overall I did a smokey eye with a hint of blue. 




This was their redone church. I was so pretty and it had a old school vintage feel just like her dress.

Congrats to the happy couple and I truly wish them the best of luck. 



xoxo Love, 

Brittany
