Shannon Reviews: Laura Mercier Exclusive Essential Eye Organizer

Laura Mercier Exclusive Essential Eye Organizer
(Exclusively from Neiman Marcus)

I am currently in LOVE with this kit. I do love a good kit and I ADORE Laura Mercier, so this was a level of bliss I had not experienced until I saw the tester of this in the NM store a few weeks ago and snatched it up at a pre-sale event for their September Beauty Event (started September 10).

So here's the skinny: 12 of their best selling eyeshadows (some of which are already in heavy rotation in my kit), 3 double sided brushes, a sleek magnetic closure kit. Mercy. Did I mention that they have a super cute gift-with-purchase that comes with a full sized lip stain, mini mineral powder in Candlelight, minis of skincare and mascara too? No? Well they do. I have a feeling this will sell out fast so I recommend calling your associate at Neiman Marcus to reserve yours right away!

I have created so many incredible looks with this kit already...soft and organic to glam-o-rama. It is entirely possible that I will have to buy another as a back up because this deal is fantastic at $125 ($250 value). Happy spackling, Poodles!

Fort Worth Bridal Show

I'm a little nervous, I'll admit it...my first bridal show in forever is Saturday & Sunday and I am all a twitter! The floor covering is purchased, the brushes are (as always) spotless, the media has been printed (hope I have enough) and I'm plotting my outfit as we speak!

I do this all the time! I have the backing of the premier bridal gown boutique in the metroplex & the support of my entire world. Why am I freaking out?

Anyone?

Miss Texas Week with Miss Ellis County

I had the distinct pleasure of making Miss Ellis County and Miss Ellis County's Outstanding Teen even more beautiful than they already are all week long. Have I metioned that my job is fabulous!?! Here are their crown shots from this winter...believe it or not, they were EVEN MORE gorgeous the week of Miss Texas than they are here! More to come, but for now, visit their websites and that of their fabulous photographer, Chris Martin.

What a beautiful day for a wedding....

Bridal make up can be a blessing and/or a curse. This weekend's blushing bride was an absolute blessing!! Calm, focused and stunning. I love to work with a face that's attached to a person who knows what they want.

With a colorful wedding palette of Tiffany Blue and Shades of Tangerine, Diana's wishes were 'naturally glamourous with a twist'! Purple eyeshadow is her signature look and we were happy to accommodate. A carefully chosen color group along with a custom blended lipstick rounded out her wedding day look. It didn't hurt that she started out as a gorgeous girl, but WOW....the end result was stunning!

Special thanks to Wendy at Bliss Bridal (where the Bride's Winnie Couture gown was found) and Sarah of Lightly Photography for being a fabulous team to work with!
