Holiday 2016 Photoshoot

This holiday photoshoot was probably the funnest one to date! Both Victoria and myself somehow were able to decorate our set within an hour, which included putting up and decorating a tree. Such a feat!

We used Victoria's home to shoot to give it a cozy, homey holiday vibe; we also used my family's decorations. If you look closely you can see my mother's, my own and my cats' stockings. Of course we had to deck out the set with Mary Kay products! So we turned some of Victoria's gift bags into ornaments as well as some of my gift certificates!

There were lots of goodies below the tree!

We set up all of our products (ALL Mary Kay except for brow products and liquid eyeliner by Sorme and Urban Decay) and welcomed our models!

Our first look done on our lovely model, Jasmine Dorfshmidt is Hollywood Glam Holiday. I crafted this look inspired by old Hollywood glamour, a look that never goes out of style. I was inspired by the glow in old black and white movies that the leading woman would have, so I recreated it by mixing Tarte Maracuja oil with the foundation and by applying lots of highlighter to really enhance the glow.
