Makeup Happy Hour
Hi and welcome! I have a lifetime of love of all things beauty! While I grew up an athlete and a tomboy, I still loved makeup, hair and beauty. I have always been interested in the latest beauty launches and innovations! And what better way to investigate, test out, play and review new products than over a cocktail or glass of wine?
I love pairing unique custom cocktails with fragrances and to be inspired to pair colors and textures of makeup with cocktails. I spent more than 7 years working part time with Sephora and Estee Lauder as a makeup artist and beauty consultant, and I have had the chance to learn tips and tricks from some incredible makeup artists and brand founders over the years.
I hope you enjoy and share your thoughts here, too!
Cheers, Kristin
Transparency about editing, links and gifted products.
Editing:
While I frequently use the Portrait filter on iPhone, I generally do not otherwise edit my photos. If heavy editing is done of face and makeup, I will note it in the blog post.
​
Links:
I include links in most cases for convenience to you, but will note when links may be affiliate or sponsored.
​
Genuine reviews:
Most items are purchased by me directly, however I do occasionally receive gifted items. I have done my best to always include whether items are gifted or purchased. Regardless of whether I have purchsed or received as gratis, I create honest reviews based on personal use and product performance.
