Looking for Kim K!

Look at me! Full on "incognito mode" 😅

Lol this was me today after attempting to look for Kim Kardashian (@kimkardashian)  and Malika Haqq (@forevermalika) in New Orleans. I literally walked around for hours looking after being prompted by a small hint from her Snapchat (@kimkardashian) as to where she may be:

Unfortunately it was the only hint I was given by Kim K herself and it proved not enough to find her. Oh well maybe next time!

She and Malika had posted a selfie to snapchat earlier this morning in the plane on their way to NOLA

The two flew down in support of their friend Raquel Smith who suffered a gun shot wound to the leg in a road rage altercation that led to her husband's (Former Saints DE Will Smith) death Saturday April 9.

Correction: Khadijah Haqq McCray (@foreverkhadijah) was with Kim K today. I've been fooled by their twin powers 😩😂

My Favorite Setting Powders

So I mentioned in my recent video (http://youtu.be/ZYlTKz-klGI) how I've been using the Ben Nye banana powder to brighten up certain areas of my face. It's definitely one of my favorites for its soft texture, but I wanted to mention a few other favorites of mine. Check them out! 👯

I haven't slept..

It's almost 9 a.m. and I still haven't gone to sleep. I've been editing my latest video since 3 a.m. that I had to re-record yesterday due to some annoying circumstances, but this one's a winner!

I am SO pleased with how this one came out and I put a lot of hard work and long hours into this video so I sincerely hope y'all enjoy it and that y'all learn something from it.

I'm currently in the uploading process so it will be up sooner than you think :)

I will have a blog post with product and video details so stay tuned! :)

Here's a cute picture of Mardi Gras "helping me edit" 😒❤️😻

When is the last time that I've seen 9 a.m. ?

I am SUCH a nightowl y'all so for me to be up this early is a miracle, but as promised I told y'all I'd be awake bright and early to make sure I get this video filmed TODAY!

So as I'm typing this, my eyes are barely open, wondering why the floor feels cold this early as I listen to my Keurig warm up hot water for my tea all while I'm shoveling spoonfuls of yogurt into my mouth.

The bed is entirely off limits and the couch is questionable cause I know how I am and I'm gonna end up laying down thinking yea sure I'll rest while I wait for my tea knowing damn well I'm fooling myself into going back to sleep lol so I'm forcing myself to sit at my kitchen table 😂 The struggle is beyond real!

It actually doesn't feel bad to be up this early now that I'm finally awake-ish. It almost feels a little adult and.....responsible 😱

Yogurt, tea, film! Let's do this!!

P.S. I'm doing a test run makeup appointment today on a client for a photoshoot I'm doing early next week! Long day ahead of me 😁
