All I need to know I learned from Enizio Salon

I had the privilege of meeting the genius behind Enizio Salon, Alex.  Enizio started out as a mobile hair & make up salon, that's right they come to YOU. I absolutely love this feature, but sometimes you just want to get away and their brick and mortar salon is just that, A GET AWAY. The pics, don't quite to do it justice but don't you want to see it for yourself? Do it, GO, book your get away now at Enizio Salon. I learned so much this night and I'm sharing it all with you...........

These beautiful ladies above are Morgan, red head hairstylist guru and the stunning Carrian from Oh Sweet Basil. Morgan is Carrian's stylist and I'm so glad she shared her with us. Carrian was the hair and makeup model for the evening, lUckEE (napoleon dynamite). These are some of the brilliant items that have now been put on my makeup shopping list. Below is how to use them.......

Embroylise: Moisturizer and Primer; a must for every day and especially photo days.

Eve Pearl Trio Eye Concealer: You must go darker and then gradually blend to lighter in order to actually lighten the under eye.

Headshot Tips by Heidi Ann

• Never face the camera full front. Always angle away from the camera with your weight on your back leg. 
• Avoid white and black (usually). 
• Choose colors that make you look good. 
• Don't stick your chin/neck out no matter what the photographer says. The trick is to use darker pigments (makeup), not MORE makeup.
• Make sure you tell the photographer what you want. If you hate the urban background you'll end up hating all of your photos. 

Thank you Emily,  Is This Really My Life, for the invite, The Chocolate for delicious desserts, it was a wonderful evening out, even if I was in my workout clothes, doi (as I hit my forehead).
