a little bit of old hollywood....

how excited would you be to see this "glam-tastic" box sitting on your doorstep!?! Even the logo makes you feel like a Hollywood Starlet, sitting at her vanity table in a pink silk robe with white fuzzy trim...like Marilyn Monroe or Audrey Hepburn.....
.....AHHHHHHHHH.........(insert heavenly sound effects)......and look what was waiting inside!!!! I met Maxine...the dollface girl that owns this company...she is so sweet and adorable...and she said she would send me one! It was like the most fun birthday (or Christmas) present.....I have always wanted a vanity table...or just a place with lighting like show girls, or actresses of Hollywood's hay-day, would've used....and this is it baby!!!! It even has a dimmer switch!!! WHAT!!! I know....cray cray!
It is so stinkin' cute...and PINK! It's 3 feet wide....glam-big!
It's got 6 light bulbs...that ultra-true white...which is the only way to get the truest color, for skin-tone matching to perfect color choices for anything. Ain't nothin' like putting colors on in a yellow-ish lighted bathroom...and you wonder why your make-up looks funny all day! ha ha

And I love that it's a girl powered company...owned and run by Maxine...., she is the "adorablest"...I was met her at the Melrose Trading Post, I saw that pink mirror...and was drawn like a bug to a light! She loves flower rings, hoop earrings, nameplate jewelry (like my Supreme, necklace)...and I am so excited to see girls going after their dreams and starting awesome companies like Vanity Girl! She really is in West Hollywood, and the vanities are made in Los Angeles! I want to help her and support her company...go girl power!!!

It makes my room look so much more fun and glamorous!
It gives off the most beautiful, even, "divine" lighting...lighting makes the biggest difference!
QUICK STORY ON THE IMPORTANCE OF LIGHTING:
I once worked on this movie where one of the actresses wasn't being very nice! The lighting guy on the crew said.....you've never want to be mean to the lighting guys, because light can either make you look flawless and young...or we can make you look old and ugly! (ha ha ha ha)
here is me after I filmed the "Ke$ha" make-up video with this light! Luuuuuuv IT!!!!

WANT ONE...or WANT to see the other Vanity Girl Hollywood De-LIGHTS!!!!!
CLICK HERE: www.vanitygirlhollywood.com and tell Maxi I said HI!!!!!!


Thanks MAxi! I love my vanity!!! And I love that you started this company making the cutest Vanities I've EVER seen! And my make-up has been looking even better, since I can really see everything perfectly!

check out the "awesome" lighting...in this video....

huge love and perfect lighting.....kandee

The link to Vanity Girls isn't working for some reason.

Katelyn said...

Kiraesque said...

awesome vanity, girl!! the lighting was perfect for your Ke$ha look!! <3 love you!

Unknown said...

Hey Kandee. I really enjoy your videos and blogs. I just wanted to give you a little tip- when writing a blog, it is so much more enjoyable to read when you use correct grammar. For example, I simply find it annoying when reading your blogs and have to see ellipses ('...') everywhere. It would make you appear much more professional if you corrected these little imperfections. I'm not hating just providing a tip!

love you!

a look for dark toned skin like olives tans that would be great! like an everyday look!

Unknown said...

Thanks Kandee for the awesome video...keep them coming.

That vanity mirror is to die for. When I tried to get into the website, there was an error message for some reason...

Can you do a video with the pigment colors from mac and the different ways to use them, etc.


You have an amazing gift and I really appreciate you sharing it with us!

Stay strong,

Kathy

I loved this video - it's real fun to watch you doing this! :) How about an Audrey Hepburn kinda look? Like all classy and glamorous? I'd love to see that! :)

Unknown said...

Oh my gosh...how AMAZING is this?!?! So pretty, I want one.

Unknown said...

Help! The link doesn't work. ???

I love this version of Ke$ha's makeup! Her makeup is usually really "out there" but I really like it. I love that I can wear your version of it without getting weird looks, lol.

I found this look today and I fell in love with it. Would you consider doing it? It's Christina Hendricks at the Director's Guild of America Awards:

That is such a beautiful vanity table!

I wish I can purchase one right now.

This is so cute! I totally want one!

Unknown said...

Oh Kandee,

I just thought of one more request....Could you do make makeup looks from the new Urban Decay "alice in wonderland". It should be in the stores in Canada this month and maybe two or three different looks with this set would be awesome.

Cannot wait to get it!

You rock!

Kathy

Kandee, I am your biggest fan and supporter i've defended yall on that mean hateful site recordcourier.com and I am sending u happy thoughts and prayers, stay strong. Your real fans will be with you long after this is over.
Those hateful people are making fun of me for supporting you but you know waht? I don't care because I am only telling the truth on how amazing you are and they're so full of hate they can't see. it.

God bless you sister!! STay strong, your real fans will love you no matter what.

ssmith said...

Love your last video on the Kesha look. I'd like to see what else we can do with the Alice in Wonderland eye shadow. Is there an everyday look we can use with those colors? Also, you've inspired me to start my own blog but about cooking. I teach a Culinary Arts Club for a high school in my area. What kind of camer...a do you use to do your videos? It looks like you get great sound and light. I would love some feedback. Thanks so much! Keep up the good work! :)

Unknown said...

Kandee,
I just want you to know that you are one of the most beautiful people that I know. You are always so positive and you really motivate me to be a better person. You don't let life get you down and you see the good in everything. You are a role model to me and I really look up to you. I have learned so much from you, not only about makeup, but about life too. You are an strong and amazing woman!

Worthyoflovee said...

i have been dying to get that mirror they are expensive tho

CosmoFreakaLeak said...

omg i was looking at these before!! they are so cute but too much money for my pockets!

Heather B said...

Wonderful look! Thanks so much for breaking it down, it really helps me.

If I was to request one thing, it would be how best to use MAC pigments. I purchased a little 5 mini pigment spindle type thing over the holidays and I love the colors, but they are so intense they kind of freak me out and I have only used them once. Any ideas or fun looks would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you for all that you do, you are amazing!

Unknown said...

Does the company have a website for those mirrors? I didn't see one posted in your blog or comments - but I may need to go through and re-read again after some sleep...

The D said...

I love watching your videos, you've always provided great advice for us "non make-up experts". Can you do a look for some of the blondes, either a Charlize Theron or Carrie Underwood type, neutral in a sense but drop dead gorgeous!

Keep the great tips and pointers coming!

Unknown said...

Another vote for a Lady Gaga look. I would especially like the mini-mouse look from her Paparazzi video. Or the goth look she has in Bad Romance (right before walking up to the bed).

Thanks Chica!

TKOmulatta said...

Rosy said...

Thank you Kandee, now I want one really bad. I love it!

BTW ladies, we are doing a Valentine's Day giveaway on a pink one just like Kandee's (or the color of your choice). So tell us about your VDay plans -- and what make up look you'll be rocking. Most of you are of course wearing one of the Divine Ms. Kandee's looks (natch!) so tell us, tell us!

Trina said...

Oh boo, the website is down again it seems. I would love one of these. Have someone let us know when it's back up so we can enter/see what you have to offer. Thanks!

Leza1121 said...

Hi Kandee:
I heard that very comment made by the lighting personnel on movie sets I've worked on. It's soooo true. The very same thing can be said about us makeup artists. You never want to make your mua mad.
