Before | After

Happy weekend beauties!

Here’s a Before | After photo of my beautiful client for her Prom yesterday. She wanted a romantic soft smokey eye with a little gold shimmer to compliment her sparkly prom dress.

It’s Prom season and I still have some slots available so email me to book your glam appointments. I am available to come to you in the LA, OC, and inland area of SoCal region! Group rates are available for 3 or more girls also. Email me at info@ryulala.com

 Have a great Sunday dolls!

Ciao,

2016 Prom Season

Can’t wait to glam up my beauties this Prom season! I’ve been getting a lot of romantic shimmer eye look requests from my clients. Something tells me this LORAC Unzipped Gold palette is going to be working overtime!

Friday Hair Essentials

Happy Friday beauties!

I’m sorry I’ve been MIA for a little bit from my blog. I have been super busy with work and especially been feeling under the weather. I’m trying to get back into blogging and posting again so show some love on my social media please!

Today, I’m sharing some of my favorite hair tools that I love to use! The Nume 25mm hair wand is my go-to hair wand and I have another set that I use for all my clients. This baby holds my curls in for days and gives amazing 2nd day 3rd day hair! For my ladies who like to keep their mane styled for a few days without having to wash right away, you know what I mean! Before I do any curling, I like to use a good dry shampoo or texturizing spray and my all-time favorite texturizing spray is by Oribe. God bless this brand. It is so amazing and I have this smaller size bottle so I can easily carry it around with me when I need an extra lift. Of course having a teasing brush is a must for me because it goes hand in hand with my dry shampoos and texturizing sprays. Don’t forget a good teasing brush to help style and separate areas of hair while doing your hair. I like this one I picked up from Cosmoprof because I love the end part that helps me divide areas of my hair and tease and lift accordingly when styling. Finally, to top off the styling, I use a good hairspray. Today, I’m using my Aquage Transforming spray because it was in my kit and I haven’t used it in awhile, but this baby is the best for holding up texture especially shaping and lifting without all that crusty residue from cheap hairsprays!

Hope you dolls enjoyed my hair post and let me know if you want to see more like this in addition to makeup beauty posts!

Have a great weekend!

Late night brush cleaning

Late night brush cleaning using my favorite brush shampoo and conditioner by Blvd Cosmetics by Brian Champagne. This cleanser thoroughly cleanses and conditions my brushes without leaving any residue of makeup on my brushes! It smells so great and is really efficient since it cleans so well. I ❤️ this cleanser!

What are some of your favorite cleansers dolls?

Happy Spring 🌻💐🌸🌼

Spring 🌷 is in the air! Enjoying a pretty warm, Spring day in LA today. I had a meeting and stopped by Krispy Kreme’s to grab a doughnut (I haven’t been to Krispy Kreme’s since high school) where there was a huge line of people waiting. I came across the Easter selection and couldn’t resist the cute little Easter egg shaped doughnut. It was so cute to see all the little kids enjoying their sweet treats and couldn’t help but feel like a kid myself! 

Happy Spring and have a wonderful Easter Holiday weekend!

Ciao,

Thursday night skincare essentials

Hi friends! Hope you all had a great day today. I’m starting to wind down a bit and preparing for a little TLC for my skin tonight, but targeting my eyes. I haven’t been getting the best sleep and waking up extra tired and it’s been obvious on my under eye areas.

I’m using all sample products I got when I was in Asia (Korea and Taiwan). I came back with a goodie bag full of fun samples to use so I’m having some fun trying out some new things here and there. So tonight, I’m using a hyaluronic acid, hydrating and brightening eye mask for my tired eyes (Lord knows I need these bad boys), a Toner/Essence, a serum, and a gel cream (These three products all have Bulgarian Rose oil and other natural ingredients that help hydrate, tighten, and restore radiance in the skin!). Hopefully a little TLC for my tired face will help me prepare for the weekend!

Have a lovely night, beauties!

Ciao,

Yuri

Nude Lipstick of the day

Having a coffee break with my Milk Jar cookie while I share today’s nude lipstick of the day: Lorac Alter Ego lipstick in Visionary. I love these lipsticks because they are so pigmented, smooth, hydrating, and yummy smelling.

Happy hump day, dolls!
