Dr. Feelgood!

Nope, and I don't mean the song either-although that one is on my ipod!
We have been swamped! Shoots, weddings, and traveling-cannot believe it has been over a month since the last post. I really don't know where the time is going. I have to say, this has been the best season with the best Brides...ever! I am so happy that my girls are beautiful inside and out. I develop lasting relationships with most of my girls and often get holiday photos and pictures of their babies and growing families. I love it! They say, "If you enjoy what you 'do', you will never work a day in your life...". I truly believe that, and I am most grateful.
We are in the process of updating and freshening up our site and blog...so hang in there. We have a few weeks in August to get to some "biz"ness done and we are getting our pretty little ducks in a row to showcase some of these gorgeous people.
In the meantime, we are getting a lot of calls and email about what products work for this heat and humidity. I have found that proper skin prep, make up, and finishers are key...so is the actual application. In my search of alternative products, I found an oldie but goodie and reintroduced it to my kit.
It's Benefit's Dr Feelgood Balm...
This can be worn by itself, under make up, over make up, and even for touch ups. It's an alternative to powder and great if you have oily skin. I prefer to use this instead of powder. It closes pores, keeps shine at bay, and locks in the make up. For touch ups, I would blot first, then tap this product on gently with your favorite sponge applicator.
Next time you are in an Ulta or Sephora...give a try and see what you think!
