life~LOVE~laugh

I had one of those moments last evening with uncontrollable laughter.
It was rejuvenating.
As if a small piece of me was awoken.
It is neither here nor there WHAT exactly I was laughing about...late night shenanigans with a close friend.
Rolling in tears with wheezing giggles it reminded me that LIFE is a lot about the small things. Enjoy the small things for they create how you come off in the bigger things of life.
Live your life
Love your life
      &
PLEASE
make sure you are laughing your way through every day of that life as well.

Fall In Love

Marilyn Monroe for MAC

With some of my dear girls in tow, we conquered the beautiful crowd at MAC on Robson 

last evening to see the buzz (not the Sara Rose type) on their latest release!

Champagne flowing,

makeup applications at every corner

& 

a swarm of MAC goers from every corner of Vancouver.

Well done MAC on a great evening & some more wonderful products.

“This life is what you make it. Not matter what, you're going to mess up sometimes, it's a universal truth.

 But the good part is you get to decide how you're going to mess it up. Girls will be your frends - 

they'll act like 

it anyway. But just remember, some come, some go. The ones that stay with you through everything - 

they're your true best friends. 

Don't let go of them. 

Also remember, sisters make the best friends in the world. 

As for lovers, well, they'll come and go too. And baby, I hate to say it, most of them - 
actually pretty much all of them are going to break your heart, but you can't give up because 
if you give up, you'll never find your soul mate. You'll never find that half who makes you whole 
and that goes for everything. Just because you fail once, doesn't mean you're gonna fail at everything. 
Keep trying, hold on, and always, always, always believe in yourself, because if you don't, then who will, sweetie? 
So keep your head high, keep your chin up, and most importantly, keep smiling, 
because life's a beautiful thing and there's so much to smile about.”
― Marilyn Monroe

Carrie Bradshaw Dreaming

"You may say I'm a dreamer but I'm not the only one." 

Well I know for a fact that I'm not! Pretty sure that after watching 6 seasons of Sex and the City about 3/4 of the female population took on one of the characters personas. 

Me?!

Well let's be honest here...

Carrie Bradshaw aka SJP

(I lust!)©

I understand I don't have her figure or her closet or live in Manhattan with Big but what I do have is an AMAZING career and some AMAZING news, that helps me feel a lil more Carrie Bradshaw-esk.

I...

Sara Rose,

am about to be an OFFICIAL published writer!

Bat those LASHES

Purchasing makeup has always had its perks to me, even since I was a young child. I remember my Aunt giving me her free bags with testers in it from Lancome, ummm dress up HEAVEN. I thought to myself, WOW when you grow up you get free goodie bags by just buying a perfume...now that's cool..you don't even have to attend a party!?! Well, now that I'm cool enough to purchase makeup, with a purpose, I get the goodies too! And thanks to Sephora, at my recent shop/splurge/IT'S FOR WORK I promise, I came across my new mascara of the moment.

My mini mascara tester that Sephora gave me for FREE has now got me addicted! Make Up For Ever's Smoky Lash is an amazingly ultra-pigmented, lengthening & volume enhancing mascara. It is (as far as I'm aware & google can tell me) is a Sephora exclusive product from Make Up For Ever. To purchase a regular size tube it goes for $25, which I would say is about an average price for a good mascara...smack dab between my FAV MAC False Lash & Lancome Hypnose.

Hopefully this helps some of you on a hunt for a new VOLUME building, LASH batting, Smoky eye mascara.

I LUST©

NYFW...I LUST©

Two NYFW seasons down and missing this one : (
   There will be more & until then I watch the trends & find some FAVS!
Just as I was Googling and browsing through Vogue.com tonight watching some videos I came across Tory Burch Spring 2013 show
                                                   hair & makeup.
      I LUST©

The clothes were somewhat in my eye of style but the team did well in completing the whole look. 
     Fishtail pigtails..yes please...(When will my hair every grow long enough) mixed with the 
fabulous no-makeup makeup look. Just delightful. 
But the Tory Burch collection is obviously just one of many stunning designers showing this season.
       Who's one of your FAV'S?
 Do you spot some of the upcoming trends?

This is my CAREER 

this is LOVE!

Josie Maran 100% Argan Oil..it is pure LOVE

As mentioned on my Sara Rose group page, I promised a review of my new found friend. 

Really what more do I have to say than AMAZING.

Day & Night.

Meaning I use this as my daytime facial moisturizer as well as a evening one.

This is my GO 2 GAL. 

Who knew that this organically grown lightweight oil could do such wonders for my skin. 

For the past few years my Momma has been getting really into proper products. The issue for her is how every product we (aka ME as a makeup artist) use seeps into our skin. But with wonderful all natural products, such as this Josie Maran 100% Pure Argan Oil, there isn't that concern. 

This product has been keeping my skin in a happy place. I haven't been having that irritating random cystic acne appear and my rosiness has tamed down! (YAY)

For more information & reviews get on over to this site, Josie Maran Argan Oil  and let me know if you are ON already or going to JOIN this All Natural skin care train!

Kat Von D Autograph Eyeliner

WOW wow E WOW

Having mentors in yoUR industry are KEY! One, few or many...I had an
amazing time with one of mine this past weekend & of course I took in every word she said!

One word was a MUST TRY with the Kat Von D Autograph Eyeliner.
I bought it. Tried it.  LOVE IT!

It is a LONG lasting (even on my oily lids) thin brushed liner.
I have tried so many liners and this one gets my CHECK of approval.

LET ME KNOW YOUR THOUGHTS!

Life...thoughts

Do you have those mornings when you wake up in thought. 

Deep entrancement into LIFE

Well this is what WIKIPEDIA has told me...

"Life (cf. biota) is a characteristic that distinguishes objects that have signaling and self-sustaining processes from those that do not,^[1][2] either because such functions have ceased (death), or else because they lack such functions and are classified asinanimate.^[3][4] Biology is the science concerned with the study of life." 

How are you treating your organism?

Time Flies

This is suited for my recent life revelation.

 

I never really let the words "enjoy your life because time flies" sink in when my parents would tell me this.

It has sunk in. 

 Time flies.

Stop & enjoy.

 

50 Shades of Oops Oh My

I think if I had to explain myself as to the inspiration for this collage it would be a waste of breathe typing.

I began reading Fifty Shades of Grey about a week ago and DAMN this is real. 
I had spoken to some other ladies about reading this new age soon to be movie bestseller and I never really understood their reasoning for saying 
"Oh Sara you just have to read it to understand" 
I know understand.

I am truly honored to be apart of such a great cause.   

My thoughts feelings & vision are displayed above.

Keep an eye on my Tweets tmrw & the near future for some exciting updates...visually that is.  

Inspirational Visions

Hair - LOVE

Makeup - yes please

I think that if I was to carry on looking for inspiration I would veer to far from what my original vision was....which was well...this. Thank you Pat McGrath for the perfect look from 

Dolce & Gabbana's SS 2012

Add some varying lip colors and we have the beginnings of a SHOW!

See you at the luncheon ladies.

MORE Miley...Billboards 2012

I wasn't able to catch the 2012 Billboard Music Awards last evening, which therefore means I sadly missed the Red Carpet....waaah.

BUTT

But

Thankfully for Google (where were we before it) I found Miley Red Carpet....almost ready. 19 year old Miley Cyrus was fitted together in a Jean Paul Gaultier Ivory double-breasted blazer & mini dress to pull off this OOPS there goes my pants OH MY look. The voluminous hair, kohl rimmed eyes & pink pout definitely caught my eye though...lets try pants the next time maybe?

ALSO..Lip injections...I can see that poofie pout?! Miley don't take that LiLo train because you will Break my Heart...my achy break heart. 

And if you didn't catch that lil' family tie/ditty please refer to your country CLASSICS! 

Butterflies

Just one of those songs....I can keep on repeat.

Tell me you've heard it before.

Cause you give me butterflies inside, inside and I

The things you have....

I have a love for PATTERNED pants lately.

What could be better than ROSE patterned pants. 

NADA. 

Never let the things you want make you forget the things you have. Appreciate the ones you love & the ones that love you. Be true to yourself & your heart.
