My Philosophy

I created Porcelain & Pink because I love women, and want every single one out there to see that she is beautiful! Self-esteem and personal confidence is very important to me. There's nothing I hate to see more than a woman that can't see that she is beautiful. The first time I could see a woman's self image change just because I put makeup on her, I fell in love. The way we look and feel about how we look has a lot, if not everything, to do with how we feel emotionally. How we feel emotionally has EVERYTHING to do with how we act. So look your best, feel your best, be your best! And I haven't met anyone that isn't beautiful. Just people who can't see it in themselves! There's nothing like the smile of a confident woman! If I am only able to help bring out a few more, I've made a difference.

My Background

I got into makeup via art. Drawing, painting, whatever I could do. Then I tried art on people, and loved it! Skin is such a beautiful canvas! I have worked at MAC Cosmetics in Saks 5th Avenue since 2006, while also doing freelance makeup. I've worked with every avenue of makeup. I love teaching women to do their own makeup, as well as getting brides ready for their dream wedding! I've had the opportunity to work for a music video that was shown on MTV, work with the fabulous Dr. Ro that we've all seen on The View, Oprah, and the Dr. Oz Show, as well as work with local publications such as Portico Magazine and the Birmingham Weekly.

My Makeup Kit

I keep a fully stocked makeup kit capable of doing any look on any person! I am always looking for the very best and won't use anything on you I won't use on myself. Most of my makeup products are MAC and Temptu. I also have odds and ends from other quality brands when I've found something I loved! I am always out to find the best of the best to bring to my clients. All products I used have proven to be very compatible to all skin types, textures, colors, sensitivities, etc.

The Personal Stuff

I am married to my very best friend in the world and he is my biggest support. I am the worship pastor for Cultivate Church, where my husband pastors. I paint, play guitar, sing, and hang out with my dog, Charlie as much as I have tim for and love it all! I'm about as laid back as a person can be. I love sweets and foreign foods, and am ALWAYS in the mood for coffee! (Decaf these days though.)

And if I haven't yet, I just can't wait to meet you!
