BeautyCon LA 2019: Pink Carpet Trends


This year I headed back to BeautyCon LA to spot all the latest new trends in the makeup and beauty industry straight from the pink carpet and now I'm bringing them to you! This year was all about color and several celebs showed up in their brightest neon looks with matching make up and accessories.

The festival has always been a place to put the spotlight on changemakers in the beauty and influencer industry and this year was no exception with a lineup of influential speakers including Tina Knowles Lawson, Priyanka Chopra, Kelly Rowland, Ariana Huffington and more! The theme coming from this year's speakers this year was "keeping it real" and many addressed the social media driven space beauty and influencer businesswomen work with reminding aspiring influencers in the audience that social media doesn't always reflect real life. Even the successful speakers and female business owners admitted that the hard work doesn't stop once you reach success and that women still have a long way to go when it comes to equality in leadership roles.
The main message everyone could agree on at the conference was that no matter who you are and what you're doing it's important to practice self love.

Check out my interviews with these up and coming stars below to hear about the latest makeup trends Hollwyood is loving right now!

I also love attending Beautycon because it is the perfect place to discover new brands and products! I have found some of my favorite beauty tips and hacks from Beautycon! You can read all about my favorite new brands and products in my article over at Hollywood Glam magazine!

Live the Blonde Life: My Tips for Getting the Perfect Summer Beach Hair


This summer I decided it was time for an update to my hairstyle. Summer is definitely the time for a cut if you've been thinking about it because a shorter style can do wonders for keeping you cool on those hot summer days. I know I was ready for a style that could be quickly ready to go since I have a ton of summer travel plans and need an easy low maintenance do! I went to the experts at Kasai hair salon located in Manhattan Beach for the perfect playful beachy summer cut. Read all about my experience at the salon below to see how it came out!
Before
After





















I headed down to Manhattan Beach and arrived at the beautiful Kasai Salon where I got the full VIP treatment.




The salon has such a relaxing atmosphere and even has ocean views from their outdoor patio. My stylist gave me a great cut with these fun bouncy layers that made my hair feel so much lighter without looking too short! You can ask for this cut at Kasai by showing this picture and they will be able to easily recreate it!


They styled my hair giving me a blowout that lasted for the rest of the day as well and kept my hair feeling full! The salon is also launching a new line of products by celebrity hairstylist and owner Kasai. I got a sneak preview of the line which is currently only available in the salon but will be launching online soon! The line includes shampoos, conditioners, and hair masks for all hair types!



After getting my cut and style I headed down to the beach to enjoy the perfect sunny day! Everything stayed in place perfectly as you can see from my pictures! I love this cut and will be wearing it all summer with my favorite hair products from Joico.



I use the Blonde Life line to wash and condition my hair and love how this line works with my new haircut! Plus it smells amazing so that's an extra bonus! Blondes really do have more fun!

4th of July Style: Shine in Bold Stars and Stripes with My Favorite Summer Beauty Products



This fourth of July I am sharing some bold style inspiration along with my favorite beauty products for creating that glowing skin that will shine underneath the fireworks! I am obsessed with creating the perfect runway ready dewy skin look and I wanted to share my tips with you guys!


I paired this blue and white striped jacket with these bright red shorts and my favorite festive Kate Spade star print purse for an amazing patriotic and fierce outfit. The oversized jacket paired with shorts is one of my favorite street style trends of the summer. Finish it off with a pair of wedges for a polished look ready for a rooftop celebration with your friends!

For my ma

For my makeup look I started with the Shiseido WASO skincare line to make sure my skin was plump and moisturized before applying make up. Then I started with my favorite Becca backlight primer which is my favorite product for prepping my skin because it really brings out the shine when I apply the rest of my products! I use Fenty matte foundation and this Shiseido blush that has a little sparkle in it. Then I add in my highlighter using my NYX contouring pallette. I blend together the gold and champagne colors for a nice natural summer glow.
For my eyes, I started out with my Tarte mascara and used my Desert Oasis Pallette from BH cosmetics. My favorite shade in this pallette is called quartz which I applied in the corner of my eyes, then I used the gold sparkly sands on my lids and the beautiful dark turquoise blue color in the corners. I used my Dior brow pencil in Strawberry blonde to highlight my brows.
For my lips I used the brand new Charlotte Tilbury hotlips 2 lipstick in Patsy Red. Then I added my Lip Bar rose gold lipstick on top for a golden shimmer.
You can check out my article on the Charlotte Tilbury launch party at the Grove here to learn more about the brand new Hot Lips collection!
I loved this red white and blue makeup look which can go with any 4th of July outfit! I hope this look gives you some independence day style inspiration!

A British Fashion Invasion at the Grove: Charlotte Tilbury Opens Her First US "Beauty Wonderland" in LA



On Wednesday night Charlotte Tilbury and several celebrity influencer guests took over the brand new Charlotte Tilbury store in the Grove to celebrate the grand opening of the celebrity make up artist's first US store. Of course the beauty guru to the stars chose LA for her first permanent Beauty Wonderland location since she is all about Hollywood Glam makeup. She has worked with A list celebs such as Natalie Portman, Kendall Jenner, Gigi Hadid, Kate Moss, Nicole Kidman and tons more!
She also just launched a brand new line of her popular Hotlips line of lipsticks and they are all named after celebrities she loves like Edward Enniful, JK Rowling, Kylie Minogue, Amal Clooney, Jennifer Aniston and more! I learned all about the new line at the event because this line is benefiting a very special cause for Charlotte Tilbury. She has pledged to donate 1 million pounds to Women for Women, a charity that helps women in underdeveloped countries like the Democratic Republic of the Congo and many more! These lipsticks truly represent a great cause! 
Another one of my favorite things about this line is the packaging! Not only is it beautiful, it is sustainable and good for the environment because Charlotte specifically designed the tubes to be easily refilled so customers can keep their original packaging and purchase refill lip shades.

Charlotte brought her signature British luxury to Hollywood to create an amazing paradise for beauty lovers in the store. Every detail was carefully thought out from the beauty boudoir where guests could get their makeup done by experts to the Fountain of Youth where guests can experience the best skincare products from the brand. The London society meets LA glamour theme makes for a fun and luxurious shopping experience. I got to meet Charlotte at the exclusive pre-party where the fashion and beauty world's elite came out to celebrate the occasion!


First she stopped by the Charlotte Tilbury counter in Nordstrom to see her LA team and take pics! Then she made a quick wardrobe change and stepped onto the red carpet for the launch party wearing a sparkly black floorlength gown. Guests started to arrive and enjoyed the refreshments and hors d'oevres as well as beauty treatments in the beauty boudoir. Some of the celebrities in attendance included influencers Nicole Williams, Chloe Morello, Jade Marie, and of course yours truly!
For my red carpet look I decided to go for a British inspired style using the red, white, and blue color theme and completed my look with a hat a la Pippa Middleton. Charlotte even popped by for a pic with me and commented on my look! What do you guys think? Could I be a royal darlings? 
The event was a great success and I even got the exclusive on some new product launches that the brand will be rolling out this fall! I can't wait to see more from this amazing brand! 
Details on my look below!

I wore this amazing Kate Spade dress with navy blue polka dots and it even has pockets which you know I can't pass up! Then I accessorized with my Steve Madden red pumps, this bright red Kate Spade polka dot purse to match, my red and white hat, and topped it off with red lips! 
I pinned my hair up in a side twist to complete the elegant outfit and used my Kollectin pearls to pull everything together!
