I originally bought MAC Paint Pot for my son’s wedding because I needed my eye makeup to last all day.

What I didn’t expect? It would become part of my everyday routine.

As someone with hooded eyes, this has been a game changer. My eyeshadow stays put, blends beautifully, and doesn’t crease nearly as much throughout the day.

10/10. This one has earned a permanent spot in my makeup bag.

If you have hooded eyes, have you tried it yet? 👇

Planning my Mother of the Groom outfit ended up being one of the easiest parts of wedding planning. 💙 I found the dress early, added the perfect shoes, and finished the look with simple, elegant earrings.

Makeup in your 50s doesn’t always play by the same rules as it did in your 20s. ✨

One of my favorite under-eye tricks is to spray a little setting spray onto my fingertips and gently tap it under the eyes. If needed, I’ll add a light dusting of blurring powder, followed by one more tap of setting spray.

The goal? A smoother, more natural-looking under-eye that doesn’t feel heavy or dry.

Pixie girls, let’s talk cowlicks. 👏

They’re frustrating enough on their own, so don’t make them harder by blow drying your hair in the wrong direction.
