My first reaction to the stunning array of designs on www.dressprom.net.... WOW!!!
I have been the Official Makeup Artist for the California International Pageant circuit for six years and through that time I have worked with some of the most beautiful girls/women on the planet and have seen some of the most fashion forward gowns around but was stopped in my tracks when I came across Dress Prom's fashions and helpful website. These guys know what's hot and can only imagine that they have to be attending some of the top market shows to bring their current and potential clients dresses that are awe inspiring and eye catching. I find myself wanting to go back in time and attend Prom all over again just so I can wear one of these gowns. If you have any formal event to attend and have been searching for that perfect dress, stop... you have found your shop! Wildly impressive and light years ahead of the competition, www.dressprom.net!!

Behind the Scenes of the Charlotte Russe Holiday 2009 Catalog Photoshoot
I have had the pleasure of working with an amazing team this week for the Charlotte Russe 2009 holiday catalog photoshoot. The locations have been spectacular and the clothing super fashionable. There were at least a dozen outfits I can't wait to buy! The ever charming and magnificent Artists on set were Rick Gabrone (Hair), Niki Uberti (Makeup), Stacey Hummell (Makeup) and myself, Jacey Cosentino (Hair). We all are signed with Next Artist Management. The Executives at CR booked the New York lot at Paramount Studios for the Monday shoot. The models and photo crew climbed fire escapes, worked through a snowstorm (well, fake snow that is) and dodged taxi's; all to capture that perfect shot. Here are a few shots from behind the scenes at Paramount Studios (shhhh... don't tell anyone).
Paramount Studios was an amazing location to shoot at but the last two days of shooting were done at the Greystone Mansion in Beverly Hills. The Mansion was one of the most gorgeous LA locations I have ever had the pleasure to work at. A 412 acre property of ponds, luxurious gardens, never ending rooms with not one detail left out. Charrlotte Russe Executives brought in Wolves, fog machines and exquisite furniture for the models to work with. It was truly a memorable week. Here are a few sneak peeks from the Greystone photoshoot.

The New Wave in Beauty Parties
Through my years as a Professional Makeup Artist and Hairstylist I have been asked by clients and party planners more times than I can count for fun and inviting beauty party ideas. I have done countless Makeover Parties which are always a blast!! After almost a decade of offering Makeover Parties I began to think that I needed something different that I could offer my clients and party planners, so I started brainstorming and researching. After about two years the Prim Cosmetics line and Prim Couture Bath and Body Parties were born!
Here's how the Prim Party Process works...
My fellow Prim associates and I will show up at your soiree with over 40 (yes, 40+!!) of the finest and most inviting scents and fragrances on the market. Everything from Gardenia and Jasmine to Strawberry, Ginger and Lime, yummy! You will pick your favorite scent and product size, Prim offers 4oz and 8oz bottles and tubs, then you decide if you want Shampoo, Conditioner, Whipped Body Frosting, Shower Gel, Bubble Bath, Luxurious Walnut Scrub or Hand Cream. We whip all this up in a matter of seconds right in front of you and then last but not least you get to choose what color you would like your Couture Product to be - my favorite is the mint green, so soothing.
Does this sound like fun or what?!!
Her are a few pictures of the Prim line to tease you a bit...
I know what you're thinking, "this party must cost a fortune" Well my fellow Powder Puff Girls you are so mistaken. The Prim Party is Absolutely FREE!!! And the products, none above $17.95, so like totally reasonable. Now you have no excuse not to visit www.primcosmetics.com and book your Party.
Remember, at Prim were never to proper to know when to party!

Attention My Lovely and Sophisticated Powder Puff Girls!!
It's that time of year again.... Pageant time!! Powder Puffs to Brushes has been selected again to be a part of the California International Pageants as their Official Makeup Team! This will be our fifth year. Each season more and more gorgeous ladies compete for the prestigious title of either, Mrs./Miss/Miss Teen or Junior Miss California and a chance to go on to the National Pageant circuit.
Each year I have the exciting task of searching for a fun, cute and fabulous Make-up line to receive the title of "Official" Cosmetics Company and go on to receive nation wide fame and recognition (well, anything's possible, lol!).
This year I had a fellow Powder Puffs to Brushes Artist tell me about this flirty cosmetics line, Primp Cosmetics. I was intrigued and called to chat with the owner, Kim Bouman. Come to find out, Kim's products are used by some of the top A list celebs in Hollywood (and globally I'm sure) and are adored by all who use them. I realized then and there my search was over!
Here are a few fun facts about Kim and "Primp Cosmetics"...
Primp Cosmetics is located in the beautiful city of Corona Del Mar and attracts the likes of Denise Richards and Kristin Cavalleri as well as the areas top socialites. Primp is known for their perfectly designed eyebrow and eyeshadow products, must haves in your bag of tricks! If you're looking for that perfect mixture of Orange County lux and grown-up girly fun, this line is the one for you!! Visit Primp at www.primpcosmetics.com
This leads us to our second and final Cosmetics sponsor for the 2010 California International Pageants, Powder Puffs to Brushes sister company, "Prim Cosmetics"!

Fellow Powder Puff Girls.... I am thrilled to announce that I just signed on a third fabulously girly Cosmetics Company "Mally Beauty"!!
Mally is a Makeup Artist to the stars (I believe she's done even more celebs than I have, wow!! lol!). She's pretty enough to be a star herself and probably is now that she launched her Cosmetics line. Her products will blow you away! She has the most unbelievable waterproof and smudge proof eyeliners I have EVER found. Her black eyeliner stayed on for 3days, NO JOKE!! Her product packaging is flirty but sophisticated. Hints of snake skin and pastels, I feel so posh whipping her compacts out in public. A must have besides her eyeliner - her lip glosses. Throw away the MAC lipglass (that's so 2004) and try Mally's Pink and Peach tone glosses. They have the perfect combo of moisturizer, gloss, color and endurance. I'm going to beg the higher ups in her company to let me extend a discount to you ladies so you can stock up... I'll keep ya'll posted on that ; ) Thanks to MALLY BEAUTY for being a part of the 2010 California International Pageants.
