Last week in Orlando the  popular reality TV show Master of the Mix made it’s final stop in  our beautiful city and it brought out everyone ! Orlando’s very own Dj M-Squared is one of  the shows finalist and all of the  creative and most stylish crowd  came out  in full effect Saturday night to support him and to show how we do it down here! Can I tell you I was so proud,  just about everyone represented well! Makeup, Fashion and Glamor was on point, just about everyone  we  snapped looked great,  there were just a few that missed the memo and the mirror, #imjustsaying. So peep the pics and see how the  young, fashionable  and fabulous crowd represented !

This was one of my fav couples of the night. Their looks compliment each other to a T!   Her natural makeup  and hair look is perfect giving her  girly Bohemian chic look sexy sophiscatin and style.

These ladies are so on point! Natural Hair was in full effect! I love the color blocking on Miss Thang to the right, and her earrings! I die! Major cute. Both of these ladies brought their accessories game! I  absolutely love the fact that they got  made up, I see color on the lips which is this seasons trend, so many girls rock nudes which is great, but it nice to see a  colorful lip to  compliment  the outfits.

The mens! Yes Honey, they donned the wife beaters and baseball caps and grown man style was in full effect. #REFRESHING. The sweaters and button downs are  working for them,  I did a double take. I love how my man on the right went with color. Traditionally most guys opt for black, but these men embraced new mens style which is adding color, texture, and shape to the ensemble and they did well!

Girls, girls, Girls! This bunch is  absolutely adorable and sexy! I love the array of colors, everyone looks like they belong, they all represented well! Take note this is what LM is all about Makeup, Fashion, and Glamour and they did that!

He’s just  FINE!

Today’s Feature Friday goes to two ladies LM  enjoys working with so much, Nicole Mitchem photography and Tina Jackson of Style Attic! We started early  and boy did we start off well! Mrs. Jackson was not only the one styling the shoot, she was the model in FRONT of the camera! Yes she held it down doing new bio and promo pics for her site which is coming soon! When I tell you there is nothing better than a stylist, styling themselves there is NOTHING better! Every single thing she wore was friggin HOT! I didn’t take to many pics because they are so epic, I don’t want to spoil the surprise but these 2 here are certified bangers. I  could see  see myself wearing this  so I had to twit pic . My BB pics do the blue ensemble no justice but believe me when i say it was on point.

Throughout  the shoot we did beautiful clean natural makeup, natural eye and lip, which was perfect for  her, she has the most beautiful big eyes which is a makeup artist dream but I chose to keep it simple. As  for the last look I brought the eye color up! I added a  purple-bluish looking  loose eyeshadow and a slightly thicker  black eyeliner and a soft lavender  lip, ummmm gorgeous! I did choose to  mostly play up her skin, Tina has beautiful skin so I  used my new highlighter pen form MAC  in Bright Forecast and a old beauty powder called Brunette. Since  we were outside most of the day I wanted to keep the skin luminous and not work against nature because so that glow you see is all Tina’s  , she  looked AMAZING!

The Wait is over, the wait is over, the wait is over! The first Lipstick Mixtapes makeup video is finally here and we are so excited! For months we having been hearing do a makeup video, and I never was really interested until a sweet young lady by the name of Mandie B said Safia, “Lipstick Mixtapes should do a makeup video”, and just like timing is everything we were finally willing and ready! The Culture Climax production team was great to work with Vanessa, Arielle and, Miss Mandie B directed us thru the process like PRO’s. Somebody hit Vanessa’s car that night but frazzled she was not she came to the set and put us into action, while Arielle was moving furniture, positioning us for the camera, and Mandie B was cranking out the questions as great host and and interviewer. You all are truly “The BEST”!
