My name is Laura and I’m a young 20-something mom of 2. I’m proud to say that I’ve lived in Sonoma County my entire life, and love being able to call it my home. I’m a plus sized girlie girl with an affinity for tattoos. I listen to just about all genres of music, adore horror movies and comedies, and can often be found giving in to my sweet tooth.

Aside from motherhood, makeup is truly my passion. I spend the vast majority of my free time on makeup in some capacity, whether it’s sitting in front of a mirror testing out new ideas, researching new products and techniques, or reading into the lives of famous makeup artists. The world of makeup is ever growing and changing, with many things to consider. It’s not just about esthetics and what looks good to the eye or doesn’t; it’s also about safety, hygiene, and what works well in media.

My goal is not to make you look like a different person, but rather to enhance your natural beauty. I play up on your best assets; maybe your long, full eyelashes or your beautifully high cheekbones. I also work to disguise and hide the features you may be particularly self conscious about, whether it’s a pimple with bad timing or lips thinner than you might prefer. I honestly believe that every woman is beautiful and should have nothing stopping her from feeling that way. I look forward to working together with you to create the look you desire, while making sure it is truly you shining through. I want you to look in the mirror and at your photos and see your gorgeous self, not a mask of makeup.

Brands you’ll see in my kit include: MAC, Graftobian, Make Up For Ever, Urban Decay, Sally Girl, Benefit, Smashbox, Sephora, etc.
