Talk to Me!
I realized today that I don’t know much about my readers, and my readers may not know much about me. Even on Twitter it surprises me how many people have no idea what I do. I clearly need to toot my own horn a bit more. Nevertheless, this post is dedicated to giving you a closer look at my life… as it relates to beauty… and you doing the same.
So a little about me… You already know I’m a cosmetic chemist. I do contract work and consulting for small businesses, spas/salons and independent beauty professionals who want to market a line of beauty products. Manicurists and Makeup Artists have been my best clients so far. I also do private labeling and wholesaling. The product offerings for those services is growing gradually.
I am vain in the sense that I take pride in the way I look. I’m not the “I know I’m prettier than you” type. I just like to look pretty and I easily recognize and appreciate beauty in other women too. I am the QUEEN of complimenting a stranger 🙂 I’m obsessive about taking care of my hair and my skin. I spare no expense for hair care and skin care… especially when a product no longer works for me. I don’t think I’m a true product junkie, but that’s probably only because I can read an ingredients list and instantly know if a product will live up to it’s claims. My fave beauty products to buy are lip gloss and nail polish. I keep approximately 5 lip glosses in my purse not including the lip balm and carmex that I tote around. I buy nail polish compulsively, yet I rarely have my nails polished because of the work that I do. I also enjoy perfume… I wear it more for the status. It makes me feel all glamorous and grown up. I create perfume because I enjoy the process and because I can be inspired by so many different things that lead to creating a beautiful perfume.
So that’s enough about me. I want to know about you! Tell me, what’s your favorite nail polish brand? What nail color is an absolute classic in your eyes? What’s the best top coat and base coat? What beauty product or types of products excite you? How often do you wear perfume? What’s your signature fragrance? Are you obsessed with lip gloss like me? How long do you wish your lip gloss would last? Do you wear bronzer, foundation or tinted moisturizer? What’s your fave makeup brand? Are you into color or are you a neutral gal? When you pamper yourself, what does that include?
I want to hear it all, ladies! So, please leave a comment telling me all about your Glam Life 🙂
