... Read moreAs someone who has worked extensively with clients needing to conceal port wine stain birthmarks, I can share some insights on achieving a beautiful soft glam look with full coverage. Port wine stains are durable vascular birthmarks that can be challenging to cover, but the right products and techniques make a huge difference. First, prepping the skin well is crucial. Use a hydrating primer to create a smooth canvas, as dryness or texture can make coverage more difficult. Then, I recommend using a full-coverage color correcting concealer, ideally one with a peach or orange undertone, to neutralize the purple-red hue of the port wine stain before applying foundation. After color correcting, use a buildable, long-lasting full-coverage foundation that matches your skin tone perfectly. Applying thin layers with a damp beauty sponge helps avoid cakeyness while ensuring even coverage. Setting the makeup with a translucent powder is key to locking everything in place and preventing transfer. For the soft glam finish, add subtle contouring and highlighting around the face to bring dimension without overshadowing the concealment work. A touch of soft eyeshadow and natural lip color complements the look beautifully. Remember, practice and patience are important. With experience, blending these products seamlessly becomes easier, and you can customize your approach based on the birthmark's size and intensity. Sharing this signature soft glam technique has helped many feel confident and radiant, proving that effective camouflage is entirely achievable.

Chips are my favorite, go-to snack, so when I learned they had a long list of ingredients that I couldn’t even pronounce I knew something was up. I did a little bit of research and found out those words I couldn’t pronounce were CHEMICALS that are directly linked to weight gain, high blood pressure
