New from DRMTLGY and one I’ve been excited to share. 💋

The Needle-less® 4D Volumizing Lip Treatment has officially launched, and if you love the look of fuller, smoother lips but hate the burning/tingling of traditional lip plumpers, this is worth a look.

As an esthetician, I especially love that this is more than just a cosmetic plumper. It’s a peptide-powered lip treatment designed to help plump, define, smooth the appearance of vertical lip lines, and keep lips hydrated with zero sting. It gives my lips an instantly smoother, juicy-looking finish while still feeling comfortable enough to wear throughout the day, and the subtle pink tint + glossy finish makes it beautiful on its own or layered under your favorite lip color.

✨ Makeup 101: when the goal is natural, polished & still completely YOU. Beautiful before and beautifully enhanced after.

My client wanted help toning and evening the appearance of her complexion, including areas of melasma, while learning how to create a simple daytime makeup look she could actually recreate at home.

We also worked on fuller, more defined brows and techniques tailored specifically to her features.

The goal isn't to cover up who you are — it's to learn how to enhance what you already have. 🤍

That’s the beauty of a personalized makeup lesson. 💄

Bridal trial glow ✨

A bridal trial is all about finding that sweet spot between looking like yourself and feeling beautifully elevated for the big day. For this bride, we went with airbrush foundation for a lightweight, seamless finish that looks polished in person and photographs beautifully. I kept the complexion fresh and skin-like, with softly defined eyes using eyeshadows with one color (Glistening) from ABH Soft Glam palette on the lid, a delicate flush of color, and a natural rosy lip.

The goal isn’t to cover your skin; it’s to create a smooth, even canvas while still letting your natural features shine through. 🤍

The right blush can bring the entire makeup look to life.

Blush is one of those products that seems simple, but the shade, undertone, and finish can make a huge difference in how natural and flattering it looks on your skin. This roundup includes some longtime favorites and a few newer formulas worth exploring:

🌸 NARS Blush in Or**sm — probably one of the most requested blushes I hear about from clients. The peachy-pink tone with a subtle golden sheen gives that beautiful “lit from within” flush without looking overly sparkly. It’s a classic for a reason.

🍑 MAC Powder Blush in Melba — another client favorite and one I reach for often when I want a soft, warm peachy-beige flush. It gives the cheeks warmth and definition while still looking incredibly natural.

💗 Clinique Cheek Pop in Pansy Pop — a pretty option for fair to light skin tones when you want a fresh, cool-toned pink.

🍊 Tower 28 BeachPlease in Tower Hour — perfect for that fresh, dewy, cream-blush look.

✨ Patrick Ta Major Headlines in She’s Blushing — beautiful for a more polished, dimensional cheek.

🌹 Rare Beauty Soft Pinch in Bliss or Joy — highly pigmented, so a little goes a long way. These are great if you like a more modern, diffused flush.

🍓 Milk Makeup Bionic Blush in Spritz — another pretty option when you want a fresh, juicy-looking cheek.

✨ And for deeper skin tones, shades like Fenty Drama Cla$$, Juvia’s Place Doux, and NARS Foreplay can create gorgeous richness and contrast.

My makeup artist tip:
Don't choose blush based solely on your skin depth. Your undertone + the overall look you're creating matter just as much. And remember, blush should look like a natural flush, not a stripe of color sitting on top of the skin.

I've linked these popular blushes on my LTK if you're looking to find your next favorite. Which one is already in your makeup bag? 💄
