I’ve always loved makeup and being able to work with it every day only makes me love playing around with products even more! Tan is my absolute fave product, you’ll never see me without a tan. Being a beauty buyer means I try out a lot of new products, from makeup and tan to hair and skincare... my skincare routine has more products than I’d like to admit! My go-to cocktail... a Pornstar Martini.
