Beauty Tips
Check out the steps throughout AJ's makeover process

Tips for Makeup Application
  • Use powder brushes to seamlessly blend in foundations
  • Recommends a water base foundation for the first layer, then add cream foundies on top to add various color tones to the skin
  • Our faces are multiple skin tones
  • Use foundation as eyeshadow
  • Contour using cream foundations
  • Use foundation as concealer, let layers dry in between and stipple on coverage

Tips to Inspire
  • If you have a great opportunity don't let it pass you by
  • Don't worry about money, find a job that makes you a better person...then the money to pay bills, insurance will come
  • Surround yourself with people that you want to be among
I am in love with his line of Kissable Couture lipglosses.  I picked up a few at his show for a discounted price and I can't wait to get my hands on more!
