Spaphile LovingEco Beauty Event


It was pouring rain on Sunday but that did not stop me from attending the Spaphile Loving Eco Beauty Event in Santa Monica with my friend Jessika.
We had a wonderful day of pampering from manicures to makeovers.


 Failed attempt at vlogging. :(
Jewelmint booth!  I was hoping to purchase the swan bracelet in gold and silver.

Vanity Girl new portable vanity.

Loving Eco booth

I picked Green Tea and Jessika picked out Vanilla.

This purse was made from recycled Forever21 bags!  The beauty of recyling!

I had the greatest honor of meeting Justine Lassoff, CEO & Co-Founder of LovingEco!

Manicures by BelaCures

Makeup by Lisa Nunez

Makeovers by Crystal





The event took place at the Tiato restaurant and so Jessika and I decided to have a lunch date.


I love red!  Wore my Forever21 short sleeved sweater dress for the first time. :)

Jessika's makeover by Crystal. :)
Jessika and I really connected with the makeup artists Lisa and Crystal and we had some time to chat with them until the event ended.  It's so wonderful to make new friends and connections through events. 

Jessika's gorgeous look! :) I meant to create before and after pictures but unfortunately the picture I took turned out blurry.

After makeover:
My husband loved the soft smokey eye!  
I suppose I should experiment a bit more than just wearing my go to neutral look.

Belacure Manicures

 Jessika got a manicure first and I fell in love with her nail polish selection Essie Fiji!
 I decided to get the same color too, but it didn't look as great on my skin tone.
I think the manicure pops more on gorgeous tanned skin such as Jessika as opposed to my hand.

Happy to have met Crystal, so happy I asked to take a picture of her! :) 

The event ended quicker than expected!  We didn't make it to our Aveda hair appointment, but happily went home with a fun filled goodie bag!







 OPI Warm & Fozzie, the perfect holiday shade!
I see myself painting my all my nails in a gorgeous red shade such as OPI Meet & Jingle then painting my ring finger Warm & Fozzie!


A very special thank you to Alissa for the 2 VIP tickets!  Jessika and I had so much fun!

Random note: I tried to film a fashion video outside of my apartment but failed terribly. 
I will try to make a Winter Fashion video again though.

Loving my makeover by Lisa Nunez!  Thank you!  My husband loves it! :)

No falsies, I think after months and months of using Revitalash my lashes are growing! :)
I also recommend an eyelash primer before applying mascara.  It will help your lashes look fuller and longer!
