Experience the henna magic
My first Japanese Luxe Glow bridal!

It’s always a surprise when I get a Japanese client since I rarely advertise in Japanese community never mind someone who wants to get Luxe Glow for her wedding!  It was a great surprise for sure :) .   We met up to discuss designs 2 month ago and decided to get something starting from top of her shoulder going down towards the elbow and design stretching towards her collar bone.

here is the bride.

Luxe Glow keeps evolving!! Tri color Luxe Glow!

Mahima saw Luxe Glow on my arm last summer when I was doing an event at a boat party.  She emailed me to set up an appointment to have it done for her cousin’s wedding to attend in India.   She wasn’t sure which colors to do so I said if you have a dark skin any cols would look great and she took as 3 colors combined.  After we agree on the price we made an appointment and I just went all out!  Copper and gold combo looked so fabulous so last layer of silver was just a touch.  We both had a great time and finished the night quite happily :)

Luxe Glow Black- fancy tattoo?

Between my friend is in town and with henna gigs and having to start my new venture, I feel like my week went so quickly last week…  Oh, I should tell you what my new venture is.  I just became an independent consultant for Arbonne.  They offer skin care/personal care products free from animal testing/animal bi-products, parabens, mineral oils, artificial fragrance, dyes and all botanical base :)   I started using this anti aging line- RE9 and it’s great!!  even with my lack of sleep no dark circle under my eyes!  if you are interested in sampling please let me know i have some samples ;)

Back to Luxe Glow,  I had a client who recently had a back surgery and came to me to cover her scar.  We did a henna test to see if henna worked, but it was to light to cover it.  This photo is with henna past on:

So I suggested to do Luxe Glow in black and it covered up really well and looks great!!
