Mexico Here I Come!


Departure date is tomorrow at 2:20pm and i'm gone for 7 days in Mexico! I can't hardly wait! I'll be sun bathing in the beautiful Mexican sun with some of my bestest girlfriends who includes Pachee, Amy and her little one Olivia and ofcourse my younger sister whom I can't live without Suni.

This will be my second trip with my younger sister to an all inclusive resort. The first trip was in March 2009. We went to Dominican Republic for my older sister's wedding. We had so much fun. Ofcourse, I did the hair and makeup.

I started off with bride the day before the wedding with a mani+pedi.

Finally on the wedding day we woke up in the morning for about 7am for hair and makeup.

With the bride(My older sister), I started with her hair. A little bit of tease on the top of the hair, pulled back with pins and with beautiful tight soft curls. I used my favourite stay put hairspray, got2b glued blasting freeze spray. Never leaves your feeling heavy nor leaves that white sticky residue on your hair.

As for her makeup application I used my favourite inexpensive foundation L'Oreal true match. I find that if you never wear makeup this is the perfect foundation for you. It looks natural and feels great, exactly what she wanted. Also, if your oriental your prone to have oily to normal skin and this foundation is water based and oil free! For the eyes I applied soft pinks and brown eyeshadows from Nature's Solutions. I also used the blush from Nature's Solutions which gave her a beautiful glow.

I ended off with darkening her eyebrows with a soft Lancome dark brown eye shadow and Lancome's Juicey Tubes lip gloss!

*Now here's a tip for get away weddings. If you plan your wedding day a few days into the trip, when buying a foundation always remmber that your going to be about 2 shades dark then what you are before your trip. And, make sure that if you are sun taning put sunblock evenly all over your body and including your neck and ears.
