Whiskers on Kittens

Whiskers on Kittens

I have always found cats to be one of the most beautiful creatures. Their gracefulness, curiosity, and true beauty have drawn me in from a young age.

My mother took me to the musical “CATS” when I was just four years old. I thought the “cats” on stage were real, and grew up hoping and wishing that just once I would come across a Jellicle Ball!

Fast forward many years, and I finally had a kitten of my own! My husband decided that the purrrfect birthday present for me would be a sweet little two year old kitty cat. We adopted her from the Lange Foundation which is a no-kill shelter that saves many little kittens, cats, puppies and dogs from animal death row.

My lovely friend, Andrea from the blog World Walk About posted about her new kitty, and I thought I would play tag and post about mine! (FOLLOW HER! Read through her journey in South Korea and many other far away lands! She is an amazing writer with an impressive blog!)

So here is one of my favorite things. What are some of yours? I hope you think she’s as sweet as I do!

How to Cover a Zit!

This is the most easy way to cover a pesky pimple and make it stay all day long!

I call this segment, “Tune in Tuesday!”

1.) Apply shadow primer to the zit (make sure your hands are clean!)
2.) Apply concealer
3.) Blend around the zit with your ring finger (don’t touch the zit!)
4.) Set with a translucent powder
5.) Apply foundation to the face

Continue with the rest of your make up! For a really intense pimple, apply foundation to the whole face first, then apply steps 1-4.

Love and Beauty,

E

Must Have Monday

Must Have Monday

I do a segment for my facebook and youtube followers called, “Must Have Monday.” I would love to share this segment with you all here! 🙂 So to catch you up, here is Monday, October 7th’s installment:

This #musthavemonday with #emilyoliverbeauty features tea!!!

This powerful drink has been around for centuries and possesses many healing and de-stressing benefits for both the mind and body.

From simple peppermint to a bold chai, there’s something for everyone’s taste buds.

Women, around that special time, I highly recommend a draining or detox tea. Be sure to also drink plenty of water, and you’ll be feeling less bloated in no time!

Also, tea in many cultures is enjoyed after dinner- it is soothing to the tongue as well as intestines and helps aid in digestion which equals a flatter tummy and happy organs!

So raise a cup and toast to long life, peaceful minds, and healthy bodies!

Happy tea-sipping!

Love and Beauty,

E

There’s a First for Everything…

There's a First for Everything...

Hello and welcome to Emily in Beautyland. As mentioned above, there’s a first for everything. This is my first blog. And my first entry!

I am a professional make-up artist living in Los Angeles specializing in red carpet and celebrity artistry. I love every single minute of it.

Beauty and all things aesthetic are what drive me in this lifetime. Beautiful make up, faces, words, voices, things, ideas, etc. There is inspiration everywhere, and I am here to enjoy and help others to see, but most importantly, to see it in themselves.
