IMATS 2011

So i got to go to the IMATS this summer and just an fyi IMATS stands for International Makeup Artist Trade show.

Its a huge trade show that takes place at the pasadena convention center once a year where makeup artists come from all over the world to be apart of the show.

But first i met up with these little angels to cause some trouble

We stayed at Jasmins Aunt house in Santa Monica... literally right on the water .

This was a house in the neighborhood that i called dibs on.

This was the street view to die for right?

So we spent all day saturday at the show. What an amazing experience

Reppin for MAC all day ;)

These were some of the contestants for the beauty fantasy contest. Some of the work was unbelievable

He was covered head to toe in MAC pigments

Then inbetween walking around the show and the contest there were hourly classes taught by some of the top makeup artists in the business. I got to take a class by a top mac artist , tyra banks personal makeup artist who literally just got in from filming the next season of americas next top model, and a bunch of others

It was such a crazy cool experience to be apart of im so glad i go to be apart of it! i will for sure be back for it next year!

21 betchesss!!!

Wooohooo wohoooo guess whos 21!

This girl right here.

Actually i wasnt all that excited to be turning 21. Any one who knows me knows that im just such the partier that this birthday really wasnt relivant to me what so ever. Also for the past like 3 years i have not had the best birthday luck. 18...sick as a dog. 19... grandma in the hospital. 20..it rained all day..im talking frickin monsoon rain. So i wasnt expecting this year to be all that much different.

But i was pleasantly surprised.

I didnt do anything crazy. I didnt have a party. I didnt go out and party. I didnt get completely smashed. Nope i had a very quite relaxing day at the spa with my Mama.

For my bday my Mom took me to the PGA national spa for the day. We got to sit by the pool all day and take advantage of all the wonderful mineral pools they have there.

We got lunch and then as a right of passage i ordered a drink.

Too bad i had like 2 sips and didnt like it ...oh well.

Then we each got a spa service. I got a facial while mom got a massage.

I didnt really want a cake or anything all i wanted was to go to Bone Fish Grill for dinner so i could get the bowl of mussels ...to die for!

And then this was my great gift from Blam. Its the professional pics i had taken at the hair show i did. I loved them!

This was by far the best bday so far . Simple and Perfect just the way i like it.
