Loved Doing the Makeup & Hair for the Cynthia Rose 2014 Spring Line

Cynthia Rose Collection

Here I am creating a hair and make up look on set at the Cynthia Rose 2014 Spring Line shoot “Fountain Bleu!”

Temptu publication jpeg 2

I worked with an amazing and talented crew. Exquisite Fashion Designer Cynthia Rose, International High Fashion Photographer Jonathan Bookallil and the beautiful and gracious model Dominyka Gajauskaite.

From Paris flea markets to couture houses around the world, Cynthia rose continues her passionate search for the most exquisite vintage fabrics and decadent trims defining her “elegance with an edge” philosophy.

The art of collage is the true inspiration behind the Cynthia rose collection of luxurious ready-to-wear and accessories.

The inspiration for the Spring 2014 collection entitled “FOUNTAINBLEU” evokes Palm Beach with a hint of the 20’s. The hand painted “Monet” inspired watercolor rose print is evident in the streamlined dresses and blouses and the intricately beaded bodices. The colors of goldenrod, aquamarine and blushed coral highlight the tweeds, suedes, laces, silks and cashmeres. Cynthia’s “signature sweaters” are breathtaking and essential for the Spring season.

Her signature limited edition works of art are collected by those who are true individuals.

Christina Aguilera at the AMA Awards: Red Carpet How-To from Stylist David Babaii

The 41st Annual American Music Awards aired yesterday and Christina Aguilera stole the show the moment she stepped out on the red carpet, and again shortly after she took the stage for her moving performance. From head to toe, Christina was the epitome of timeless beauty on the red carpet in a Maria Lucia Hohan crisp white satin gown with a side slit and diamond-shaped side cut-outs at the waist, Christian Louboutin shoes, a Jimmy Choo bag, Lorraine Schwartz jewels, and flawless makeup. Christina’s look was highlighted by smooth, voluminous curls courtesy of celebrity stylist, David Babaii.

Come her emotionally charged performance, Say Something, with A Great Big World, David styled the songstress’ hair perfectly, with an on-trend bun and braided headband. To achieve her look, David explained you need to start with damp hair and blow it out straight with a sleek center part. Then, he took a significant amount of hair at the nape of the neck and braided it tightly, bringing it up and over the head. He secured it with bobby pins and took the rest of Christina’s hair and put it in a low bun, spritzing it with a styling spray to ensure everything stayed in place during her performance.

For fans of The Voice, this style may look familiar. Well known for her platinum locks and refined style, Christina recently took to her red chair rocking a similar ‘do.

When asked what he suggests for those trying to achieve Christina’s look at home, David mentioned “I recommend Christina and whoever else wants luscious thick hair start taking Viviscal because it makes a big difference and helps achieve luscious, thick, beautiful hair.” While he also said Christina’s tresses are gorgeous, not all of us are blessed with that naturally. Viviscal is perfect for anyone who is looking to get thicker, fuller, healthier hair. David takes Viviscal himself and mentioned he strongly believes “good hair comes from within.”

Premiere Orlando Recap: TENAJ Beauty Group

DSC03823 (374x640)

As big as the Premiere Orlando Beauty & Hair Show is you never know what to expect when you round the corner.  Coming from an appointment,I had the biggest surprise of the weekend.  I ran into an old beauty school classmate of mine and he told me that the TENAJ Beauty Group was there showcasing their new line of products called proTENAJ.

If you are wondering what it is about TENAJ Beauty Group that came as a super surprise to me,  it is the sister company, Shear Express Inc., that owns the beauty school I graduated from; “The Salon Professional Academy”  in The Villages, located in Central  Florida. Many of my former educators,  classmates and other stylists from their three sister  salons  were there demonstrating the proTENAJ products while doing a PINLESS UPSTYLE!!!! Yes a pin less upstyle using nothing but a craft wire and their own creativeness.
TENAJ Beauty Group
I got to meet a lot of new people and see some that I have not seen since beauty school.   Everyone asked me all about what I have been doing since graduating beauty school and how I got into blogging for & becoming a Brand Ambassador for ”It’s a Glam Thing”. It was definitely an awesome beauty school reunion for me.I loved seeing everyone and getting reacquainted with them. I also enjoyed trying out the new proTENAJ products (posts coming soon).  I have more for you on TENAJ Beauty Group. Stay Tuned and be sure to check out their website for more info at www.tenajbeautygroup.com
