My Own Worst Client!!!!

Hey there Poptarts
                                With all the advice and suggestions I give to clients I've come to realize I'm horrible at sticking to my much valued words. I normally put my mind at ease by convincing myself I'm too busy or just don't have the time. I'm well aware of the many wasted hours I spend crushing addictive candy or trying to figure out truths from 4 pretty liars. That precious time could be put to great use, so from here on out I'm making a change...time to start actively practicing what I preach!

Tomorrow I fly out to do makeup for part 2 of a fabulous desi wedding. The flight isn't major so I thought 'meh, no harm doing my makeup prior to right?!?' - WRONG! That small flight is prime time for me to throw on a face mask and relax my mind before the festivities began. I think I might finally break down and try this Snail Collagen Filler one!!!!!

 
Found this and other gems at my favorite local Korean beauty store.
 
This particular mask is by Leaders Clinic - a company run by some of the top clinical experts in Korea and has a two step system. Step one which is an Ampoule Booster and helps with the absorption rate of the mask. Step 2 is the mask itself which contains a special formula that aides in improving elasticity which has been damaged by the environment. The filler system contains elasticity building ingredients such as snail mucus components, marin collagen, and coenzyme Q10 that helps in restoring suppleness and firmness to the skin.



I've been avoiding trying this out (ya know the eek factor with snails and all), but I'm actually super excited to see how well it works. And I'll definitely be following the steps I shared with Mickela Mallozzi of Travel Bare Feet during our Travel Beauty Tips segment on her YouTube channel. Check out my video version of Throw Back Thursday and while you're there Subscribe because she is AWESOME!

 
I'm still in awe over how white my teeth are ^__^... modest much >_>
 
Would you try a snail mucus on your face? Let me know your thoughts by commenting below. 
 
Until next time Love & Hugs ~_^

Happenings Around and About CMF

Hello my dearest darlings! I know its been awhile but yours truely has been mega busy...as of now I'm seriously considering seeking out an assistant. But in the meantime I had to reconnect, and let you know what I've been up to and give a warm thanks to my lovely readers for their continued support. Listed below are a few things I have been working on just for you guys:

Website:
Color My Face is now actively working on bringing you a site you'd be happy to look at, share and interact with. Remember its not just makeup here, we're creating a Beauty Community that will allow us to inform and learn together. CMF will intergrate its beautiful pictures, beauty tips, industry expert interviews and "how to" videos all in one place...just for your viewing pleasure ;)
I've given a few previews of some of my portfolio work on Facebook and Instagram but there's definitely more to come. Make sure you stay tuned, trust me you won't want to miss it!

Projects:
Cole Haan Campaign Ad submission - *Models out the wazoo* (insert need for assistant), Stylist, company contacts....seriously it's enough to drive anyone competly mad!

Why You Mad Son film - The brilliant minds behind Why You Mad Son Radio will be bringing to life their next short film. Casting calls were held here in NYC last week and I can't wait to see who I'll be working with. I can't say much about the concept just yet but keep in mind ZOMBIES!! The revolution of the mind is undead  :)

Enigma Filmworks - CEO Kecia J. Benson allowed CMF the honor of being her MakeUpArtist for the screening of her documentary 'Beale Street Blues'. She covers the tale of legendary blues musician Memphis Gold and the tribulations of blues musicians in todays world. Look out for my up coming interview with her and more about projects she has in the works.

Lalitha Dance Troupe - CMF has been named their official MUA....enough said!

Editorials....Collabs....Youtube appearance..Workshops...Television......Movies..........YEAH I've got even more on the horizon.

Whats next?
A look into social media. Bloom.com gave CMF the opportunity of attending a Social Media Week event in conjunction with Elle.com for 'So You Think You Can Start Up' as a Bloom Ambassodor. For a new business this was HUGE! Not only did I get to meet the CEO & Founder of Bloom (who is an absolute doll), but also some other fabulous startup folks in the beauty and fashion industry. I'll give you all a deeper look into this event and my Top 10 social media beauty outlets in the next post.

So lovelies, I hope you are as excited as I am for the upcoming months, and I will definitaly be sure to keep you all updated. Make sure to folow me on Bloom, Twitter, Instagram, Tumblr and like the Color My Face page on Facebook for my on the go updates <3
