A night out at the theater usually means dressing up and carrying that tiny black satin clutch that we never get to use any other time. It also usually means the black eyeliner and the red lipstick to round out that fancy outfit. But what about a Saturday afternoon matinee show? Not nearly as fancy […]
Sometimes we get caught up in the ‘bigger’ parts of our makeup routine, and forget to double-check the little things. But if you make them a part of your regular routine, they really won’t add too much time to your morning. Here are a few quick things that I try to pay attention to: Lip […]
