I’ve been completely obsessed with Mac Mulch and Patina eyeshadows. I’ve applied the duet on light, medium and dark skin; blue, green, brown and hazel eyes along with every possible hair color combo you can come up with and it looks great E.V.E.R.Y.T.I.M.E.
The shadows can be worn as a light wash over the lid when going natural or dramatically for party night. My favorite was last weekend when I applied them on a bride with very fair skin, who wanted a strong but not overdone smokey eye, the contrast was dazzling. I added false lashes (you know me and my lashes!) for added drama and let me tell you ladies, she was one gorgeous babe.
To me Patina has more of a light shimmer than a true frost and the delicate pearl reflect is just gorgeous. Patina is cooler than most gold and kinda looks antique which is where I feel it’s uniqueness and versatility comes from. Used as a light wash on the lid for a natural look it brightens up the eyes just enough.
Haaaaaaaa Mulch I love thee! Slightly shimmery, rich chocolate brown with red and gold undertones, ideal shade to smoke things up! I also applied this one as an eyeliner with great success. The color is extremely build-able. I deposit with a firm brush, then use my favorite blendable brush Mac 217. Paired with Patina it’s a combination made in heaven.
… And a tutorial
Check out the video below for an example on how to use Patina and Mulch. Love FashionfaceTV!
Here’s a photo a one of our upcoming bride who came to the studio for her hair trial. Feathers are huge this year and I’m such fan! Actually I’m a fan of hair accessories in general, you can’t go wrong. One of my favorite site is haircomesthebrides.com I love browsing their endless collections, look at their portfolio and read their blog. Check it out.
It’s Monday and I don’t know about your weekend but mine was fantastic. First off I just love my staff, go Amanda and Shawn, everyone raved about the hair and the makeup! Second ALL my brides were **divine**, one after the other amazing inside and out.
First thing this morning I received an email from weddingwire.com letting me know about a new REVIEW posted by Lauren a recent bride. What a great way to start the week. THANK YOU.
Life is great, I’m very grateful for all the goodness around me.

I like to think of myself as a low maintenance gal. Hey I can leave the house in the morning within 30m after showering, pretty good no? So imagine how shocked I was after making a list of all the goodies I use everyday – A whooping 24! So much for low maintenance. LOL!
Here’s my list:
In the shower: shampoo, conditioner, body wash, face wash.
Day: Vit C serum, moisturizer, sunscreen, body hydrating cream, foot lotion, deodorant, toothpaste, Moroccan oil. Makeup: tinted moisturizer, bronzer, primer, eyeshadows, blush , eyeliner mascara, lip gloss.
Evening: Vit C cleanser, Retinol, moisturizer, Latisse.
for added drama and let me tell you ladies, she was one gorgeous babe.
Patina: Taupe Brown with golden pearl (frost).
Mulch: red-brown with w/bronze pearl (velvet).
LOL!
