Belle du Jour by NARS

I love NARS cosmetics. They are famous for their Orgasm blush because it is a universally flattering shade that will never go out of style. That's how I think of NARS products: TIMELESS!

Their new collection for Summer 2010 is no exception. It was created by NARS Founder and Creative Director, François Nars. He drew inspiration from his longtime muse Catherine Deneuve’s portrayal of Sèverine in the movie Belle de Jour.



Model: Amber Valletta

Welcome!

This is my first post on my new blog about beauty, fashion, and all other fun things in life.
Here's a little background on me and why I am starting this blog.

I love makeup and was a makeup artist for over 9 years. I have a California esthetician's license but I now consider myself retired from the beauty industry. I only help friends with their makeup now but I'm still obsessed with makeup, fashion, shoes and beauty in general.

I got married in December 2009 and I am still obsessed with weddings.

I love books and reading, computers, internet, baking, animals, coffee, movies, games and so much more.

I see things that I love everyday and I have to share my obsessions somewhere so, here it goes. I hope that anyone who reads this blogs enjoys what they see.
