Halloween Approaches...

-
Hello, scaries!

Getting ready for a crazy weekend of makeup and mayhem. I am booked for several private makeup sessions and classes--but still have some free time on Day of the Dead if anyone wants their makeup done.

For this Saturday's Pretty Pretty (Look at You!), I'll be putting on my Pearls face and making up the lovely Bonni Suval, of Shocktoberfest, "Kiss of Blood" fame. I'll be demonstrating some lovely zombie techniques on her. Please come by if you can... Come early if you really want to stick around and watch. The store is going to be very busy and it's going to be standing room only!

Some highlights from the last week (s)
  • I did zombie makeup for an army of kids, who performed "Thriller" at Stern Grove's Halloween Festival, Scare Grove. I posted a video below. I'm hoping someone took photos or video from a closer distance, because those kids looked amazing.

  • I did some face painting for grownups at Les Folies Champagne, at the Bubble Lounge.
  • Shocktoberfest, "Kiss of Blood" is going strong.
  • Also, my father came and saw "Pearls Over Shanhai." Something I never thought would happen, but that went over quite well! I resisted the urge to write "Hi Dad" for "Sweet Temple Bells," but don't think the thought didn't cross my mind.

Hey y'all. Magnetic false eyelashes...I had so many questions about these--mainly "how" and "why?" Special thanks to Niki, who found these online and gave them to me as a gift! I'm a few days late of my goal of posting a video every week, but I hope people enjoy! I still haven't had a chance to really post any Easter pics yet, but I will get to that soon!  (Nobody is putting any pressure on me to do so, but myself.  The main significance of posting this blog is just for my own sake--to keep record of what all I'm getting myself into!) Love, Kate

Single for a year

Today I’ve met a personal goal—to be single for at least a year.  I'd like to share about this. (Mind you, for the last 365 days, nobody has been banging down my door to date me—though I did have my “Sorry. I am not available,” speech prepared!) Since I was 15, I’ve been in one romantic relationship or another, with the longest time between relationships being around 3 months.  I’ve been in 2 relationships that were over 5 years long and 5 relationships that were over 2 years long.  I've had some really wonderful partners, but it was often the luck of the draw. I was casting a pretty wide net. A year ago, I had to end a relationship that was not healthy.  I was scared of a lot of things, including being alone. I had been finding my value through romantic love, which meant my value always fluctuated. I felt that I needed to change myself to become whatever the other person wanted me to be.  I now know that had the relationship not been so extreme, I pro...
