Well it's always bittersweet to be finished working at the CSL!  Its so exhausting when you are there but sad to leave the "bubble" of it. So many  memories made, loads of laughter and buckets full of glitter. Which I am sure those poor models and dancers will be finding flecks of until this Easter  (sorry guys )

 I had a whale of a time and need to thank the incredible beauty sponsors of the Fashion Theatre: Benefit Cosmetics for all of the amazing products for me and my army of a makeup team. We were up to our eyeballs in Badgal mascara and Benetint lipbalm and loving it. Also a big shout out to Jessica Nails for getting all the models & dancers nails did pre show with Geleration. And of course it couldn't have been done with out the talented hair styling a of Paul Mitchell's team.

Here's a funny snap from my last day on the style stage, doing a Benefit Cosmetics demo on a member of the crowd AND I'm wearing a Onepiece on stage. ( all the models and dancers backstage wear them between shows)

And now that I'm back home in Brooklyn, writing my final posting of this season from my cosy bed I'm still wearing it, watching junk TV and getting loads of cuddles from my dog Louis.  It may take me a couple of days to recover but its always worth it.
 I heart u CSL xoxoxo
Happy Crimbo Everybody
And remember : got makeup??'s send me a tweet @rachelmakeup74

So excited to be here in Birmingham.   It only took a cab ride from Brooklyn, a flight from New York and a 3 hour drive in some unexpected snow through the midlands to get here!LOL! 

I've spent the day setting up all my fabulous Benefit cosmetics backstage with my makeup team making sure everything is all good to go and ready for the Fashion Theatre. I'm loving Benefits Dandelion lip gloss which I'm using on all the dancers. And for the models,  it's all about Benetint lip balm which is super cherry red.

It's so great seeing so many old faces from the past plus a whole bunch of lovely new ones to work with.

Hope to see you all at the show!!
