After your mid 40’s the flex isn’t being “booked and busy” it’s enjoying a life that involves having free time and balance. It took me a while to realize that my worth isn’t measured by how much I can do and produce…it’s also reflected in knowing when to say no and rest.

Long gone are the days where I rush out of my son’s games for a wedding gig or come home so late from the studio that we end up at a drive‑thru instead of sharing a homemade meal. Experience has taught me that time is not on sale and there are no refunds for missed moments.

So after a wonderful decade of makeup, brows, photoshoots, classes and weddings I am officially retiring from all in‑person services (makeup, makeup classes and brow services). Married life kindly taught me how to slow down, enjoy quiet mornings, take midday naps, and be a present wife and mother. At this stage in time it feels good to intentionally slow down and enjoy life. I’ve been grinding for a long time…first job at 14 and been hustling since! My priority now is seeing my family grow and showing up for every real life moment.

The good news is that Dusk to Dawn Cosmetics will still be available online.

To everyone who supported the service side of Dusk to Dawn Cosmetics I love you, thank you, and appreciate you! Your support helped me reach this stage of life and now it’s time to sail into this thing they now call the “soft-wife life era” lol

To anyone reading this, give yourself permission to rest and do less on purpose. Saying no has turned my life from a crowded inbox into a curated gallery with fewer obligations, less burnout and finally room to breathe. Your health, relationships, and peace of mind are so worth it!

With sincere gratitude and many thanks,
Dawn 🩷
