Thin eyeliner aka micro liner is actually a very classic look...and soooo flattering

FYI I did switch liners in the middle of this video bc the Clio one wasn't going on dark enough lol I ended up using CanMake's

I've got a post on my LTK with this and other micro liner recommendations--you can find it in the link in my bio

It took me about 8 years to land my first celebrity client--definitely the opposite of an overnight success

Blush is actually hard for a lot of people

It’s easy to put too little or too much...and it can be hard to get the right blend!

Better application will get you better results, so try this out!!

Any good wavy hair routine is one part product, one part patience! lol

Yes, this takes a little time, but then I will preserve my waves for about 3 days by sleeping in a banana clip and a bonnet

Comment SHOP if you want links to everything I am using...including my diffuser bc it’s seriously the best

Other products I have found to work well for defining my wavy hair are:

Colorwow Dream Coat for Curly Hair
Ouidad Vitalcurl Mousse

...and that’s honestly it so far! Wavy hair is so particular!
