Why You Should 'Turn Up The C' with Kiehl's

Hi lovelies,

Last night’s party was super fun because I got to dance the night away to tunes by Taryn Manning who isn’t just a talented actress, but she’s also an amazing DJ, and I got to have the ultimate Kiehl’s experience with the launch of its new Powerful-Strength Line-Reducing Concentrate that went from 10% Vitamin C amount to an impressive 12.5% Vitamin C amount with Hyaluronic Acid.

In my Tobi outfit, which consisted of my Rodeo Black Denim Jeans paired with my Destructed Distressed T-Shirt Dress in Taupe that I rocked with a crystal statement necklace and studded boots with a heel, I got mingle with my friends, fellow actors, musicians, and influencers and nibbled on yummy bites and drinks.

The new concentrate is more powerful than ever and promises to reduce the appearance of wrinkles, smooth and brighten skin, and improves the texture and radiance of the skin. I tried it as soon as I got home after the launch party and I already feel and see the results with my skin feeling more hydrated and plumped.

Grab yours now and Turn Up The C!

The 3 Things I Did As A Panelist At BlushCon with Tobi

Hi lovelies,

This past weekend I had the pleasure of being a panelist during BlushCon, an LA based celebration of all things youth and beauty featuring the best cosmetics brands from the United States, Asia, and beyond. Beauty lovers were able to listen to panel discussions and meet their favorite beauty influencers and brands.

My panel took place on January 13th, and the topic was, “How to Build Your Audience and Monetize It.” While prepareing for the big day, I knew that there were three that I needed to do in order to make my session a success. Please check them out below and let me know what you think!

#1: Prepare. Prepare. Prepare.

The first thing I did was go over the panel questions that I was sent prior to our session. I wrote out my answers on paper and then practiced saying them aloud. This way, once I was on the panel with the crowd and all of the lights, I would still feel confident and prepared because I would already know the talking points and message that I wanted to get across. There’s no substitute for preparation to build confidence while public speaking.

#2: Comfort. Comfort. Comfort.

Sitting on stage in front of a large crowd with cameras and lights can be a bit intimidating, so feeling confident in my own skin is super important when it comes to public speaking. That’s why I wanted to make sure that my outfit made a style statement while still being comfortable.

I opted to wear a vintage sequined jacket because I love, love sequins and paired it with a Up To No Good Distressed Tee by Tobi in white. Of course, I wore my signature Kate Spade black tights and brought along my Sandy Lisa Amalfi Shoulder Bag in beige to carry all of my stuff.

#3 Connect. Connect. Connect.

I made sure to not only connect with the audience and the people in the crowd, but I also made sure to connect with the other panelists. We laughed and shared stories prior to our session so we were able to work as a team while on-stage.

We also started following each other on Instagram and tagged each other when we posted about the event to make sure that we were supporting each other. It’s important to see your peers as collaborators and not as competition.

How to Get Red Carpet Ready with On Location Glam and Tobi

Hi lovelies,

The other night I had the pleasure of celebrating the launch of On Location Glam, for its Los Angeles debut. This amazing beauty service is available in both Hong Kong and L.A. and it provides luxury beauty, hair, and makeup services directly to you. You can get glam whether you’re at-home, at a hotel, at the office, or on-the-go.

What sets On Location Glam apart from other mobile beauty and hair services, is that On Location Glam prides itself in offering a luxury, glam experience that starts with one-on-one consultations for a customized experience.

The service is so elegant that there’s only a concierge experience available, meaning that there’s no app and you must email or call to set-up appointments which adds a very classy touch to the overall experience.

Since the launch of On Location Glam was highly anticipated by its elite clientele, I knew that I had to bring my ‘A game’ when it came to walking the red carpet. I decided to wear my signature Kate Spade black tights, a vintage brown leather bag, and a Tobi Alexa Lace Skater Dress.

For my makeup, I opted for a black cat eye using Cleopatra Eye Stamp by Lyda Beauty and a rose blush on my cheeks by Physician’s Formula. I trusted my lips to Maybelline’s Vivid Hot Lacquer.

I felt extra confident walking the red carpet for the glamorous night of makeup, hair, eyelash extensions, bubbly, and more, because my dress fit me perfectly and the lace detail added an extra flair of femininity and glamour.

So if you need to get red carpet ready, trust your hair and makeup to On Location Glam and your wardrobe to Tobi.
