Dirty Deeds Done TC
I'm a low-rent high-heeled coffee-fueled pabst-swilling slutpunching disaster. If I can't be your good example, then I'll be your horrible warning.

Trade VS. Paid
Photographers… If you contact me for a trade shoot, it means it’s an TRADE of ideas between all involved.
If you want me to shoot something the exact way you want it shot, then you pay for the make-up and the hair stylists time and artistry… you pay me my rate for being your bowl of fruit or clothes hanger with attitude.
It’s a brilliant concept… trade means TRADE OF IDEAS.
Paid gets you what you want.
If you don’t get it, do NOT waste my time.
Thank you,
The Management

Random Thoughts
When other girls played with Barbies, I had my Hot Wheels collection.
When other girls played with make-up, I was doing skateboarding, boxing, tae kwon do, volleyball and basketball.
When other girls dated and simpered, I was working 30 - 40 hours a week to cover my own personal expenses (including paying my parents rent) and overachieving by being the first student in my high school EVER to win a scholarship to a very exclusive private college.
When other girls married and had babies, I was touring and rocking every venue that had the misfortune to see me.
When other girls are now becoming grandmothers, I am just now thinking about settling down and am modeling more now than I did at 18.
And with that, I’m not like what most people are used to. I’m okay with myself and doing my own thing. I definitely dance to the beat of my own drum.
Why waste time with petty bullshit? Just go out and do it.
Success isn’t who you know, who you fuck or even what you do. Success is being happy with yourself, even if it means no one else gets it.

Skin care…
Because I do get asked often what I use to take care of my skin and in particular my face…
I will say this…
Aveda’s Sensitive Skin Cleanser and Moisturizer every morning and every night.
I use Witchhazel as my tone in between.
If I wear make-up that day, I will clean my face with Neutrogena’s Make-Up Remover for Sensitive Skin and use a gentle cleanser with salicylic acid in it, Aveeno’s Clear Complexion Pads work wonderfully for me, then witch hazel, then the Aveda moisturizer.
I also use Aveda’s Eye Cream from Green Sciene line when I have shoots because it really helps in my morning prep to help keep my eyes less puffy, more eye toned and more firm. As you get older, you will always feel ‘the age’ in your eyelids. You need to take extra care of that extremely sensitive area of your face.
Every other day I use Queen Helene’s Oatmeal and Honey scrub on my face. Again, avoid the eyes and I use it VERY gently.
Then I make my own mask… which one, looks hilarious and two, will make you hungry. I start by brewing myself a cup of green tea (caffeinated) with matcha. I will open the tea bag and let it cool a bit. While it’s cooking, in a small container I put tablespoons greek yogurt (greek yogurt has more protein so it’s more beneficial than other yogurt), two tablespoons lightly warmed (enough to make it runny, not hot to curdle the yogurt or burn your face) honey. (About 15 seconds in the microwave.) I will then put a light coat of it on my face until it dries and hardens. 5 -15 minutes? Then I will wash it off. The green tea has caffeine and antioxidants. The yogurt protein. Honey not is good for your immune system, but has also in studies after long term consistant use helped in the healing of scars, and has a VERY light acidity to it that help remove dead cells.
Hope that helps answer all questions.

Vanity… Armor of the insecure…
Sometimes it kills me how people get caught up in the instant image of someone and will trash them because of some sense of thinking that beating someone down will make you look better somehow…
Self absorbed insults aimed at what some perceive as flaws in beauty represents vanity… And vanity is often brought out by insecurities to mask for the fear of your own flaws…
Look inward to improve before you go bashing on others to do so…
