Haute Body Of Evidence!

Celebrites, Models in fashion ads and that girl we all just can't stop staring at always look so amazingly otherworldly. (If you need a visual cue, think Jennifer LopezTracy AndersonRihanna, Gwyneth Paltrow, Lea Michele, Brooklyn Decker -Er, scratch that, think about any haute girl on the scene....) Some of these girls just happen to look like that normally - ok, wink wink, —but for the most part, they look so unbelievably haute because of a secret weapon: PRTTY PEAUSHUN. This shiny stuff can give you dewy-looking , illuminating skin transforming you from a lackluster diva wanna be to a full on out of this galaxy Goddess (Score!) . 
The Skin Tight Body Lotion is a perfect balance of smooth, supple, and glossy—think satin making one feel instantly like a pretty haute thing (hence the name). This product really does replicate incandescent light - no matter the complexion (I'm dark skinned Haitian American and it gives my epidermis an insane high octane shine!). Made with a slew of all natural raw ingredients PRTTY PEAUSHUN absorbs faster than any other lotion I've tried in ages, its scent is light and airy, and it leaves your skin feeling absolutely unreal.

Celebrity make-up artist Bethany Karlyn , creator of PRTTY PEAUSHUN 

Karlyn, a makeup artist and founder of PRTTY PEAUSHUN Cosmetics, works with Tracy Anderson and some of the hottest names in LA. Bethany's ingenious creation of a low-maintenance body lotion for high-maintenance types is truly a must have! And what better way to spend the holidays and start the new year looking haute! We here at LPB highly suggest you get your well manicured hands on PRTTY PEAUSHUN now ... thank us later!

*Credit goes to the AllanFace BLOG*

SHAY MITCHELL IS A SAVVY GIRL

Shay Mitchell from the hit show Pretty Little Liars was photographed for a 6 page spread in Savvy Magazine! I got to do her makeup & hair and had the pleasure of working with photo duo J Squared photography! Thank you to my assistant Dominic Elias who I adore! Below is the spread and a behind the scenes page mentioning me with my lip gloss of choice for her on the shoot! Go Dior Beauty! The pages were scanned so the color is a bit off but you get the idea! Shay is stunning! P.S. We slathered her with Prtty Peaushun! Love that stuff!
