The Cosmetics Bar Private Party

My friend, Kris, recently opened a new store in downtown Collingswood, The Cosmetics Bar. He's an amazing hair and makeup artist and has a beautiful line of his own makeup available for purchase right in his salon. Talk about a one stop shop! After hours, you can rent out his shop with a group of friends and he'll teach you how to do makeup trends/techniques like the pros. He had me sold at, "sure you can bring wine!" So I gathered a few neighborhood friends together and armed with wine and tired-mom-faces, we sought out the great mysteries of looking good (without looking like we tried to look good). My friends were hesitant about me snapping pictures in the beginning, but as the wine flowed, they cared less and less about my lens in their faces. Whether or not they'll still be  friends with me after I slather their beautiful mugs all over the internet is up for debate.
He taught us what what products hide/fix different skin issues.

And we all learned how to do a classic smokey eye.

Keep reading for some "after" shots.









It was a perfect night out with friends. Thanks to them and to Kris for letting me be a shutter bug.
