This past summer I had a great opportunity to meet and greet with alot of different people in Chicago. One of the more exciting events that I was able to do the makeup for was http://www.hercampus.com/ / www.hercampus.com/uic   Magazine release party! Under the direction of Marissa Govedarica (President UIC Campus) and Tamara Edwards(Vice President), Her Campus launched at UIC this past summer; {HerCampus is an online magazine for the college women of UIC with features on Campus News, Events, Profiles, Polls, and even Campus Cuties! Her Campus UIC is a place for the women of UIC to get personalized information about what's happening on their campus!}. The event was located in the Southport area of chicago at a bar called Sopo Lounge & Grill. There was amazing food and great giveaways, the young ladies really knew how to throw an event.  Marissa is truly making a name for herself as well as keeping college women in the loop on the lastest beauty and fashion trends. As the makeup artist for the night, my goal was to create a "Victoria Secrets/beauty" look on the models. I am a firm believer in keeping a beauty for younger women very shimmery, young women want a look that easy to manage and flawless; essentially what HerCampus promotes .....Highlighting the cheekbones, bringing dimension to the eye, and pouting the lip with a light or netraul liner and shimmer gloss. Sometimes less is more, enhancing someones natural look can be enough, especially on younger women. This can give the seductive,sexy but NOT overdone look that you want without clumping on makeup.
