Kayla gets her uber-glam on without looking like a prom queen with the Luxe Beauty Team at Warren Tricomi

As a working mom of toddler twins, my daily beauty routine is down to a pathetic minimum– last time I checked, my kids were using my powder brush to "paint" the toilet.   So when I was recently invited to a big-time Hollywood wedding  (Heidi Klum was maid of honor!), I knew I needed professional help, a body-double or, let's be honest, a miracle.

Only here's the thing: I've got professional-makeup-application-a-phobia.  In the past, I've ended up looking like a prom queen or worse, a drag queen.  At department stores, I've gotten my face done for free… then ended up with a bag-full of expensive products I never use.  

Thankfully, Luxe Beauty Team came to the rescue.   In a mere hour, makeup artists Sarah and Amy worked some serious magic on my face and my psyche.  My look was chic, fresh and sophisticated — no prom-like glitter, tranny lashes or terrifying beauty pageant spackle.  Instead, they applied oh-so-subtle temporary lash extensions, smudgy kohl eyeliner, a light foundation, the perfect berry lip stain.   They use products from a wide variety of makeup lines so I had endless choices but with no pressure to buy (though I did end up with a life-changing lipstick and some extremely cool bracelets — did I mention they sell jewelry?)  

The team has a home-base at Warren Tricomi salon in West Hollywood but they also do house calls, special events and wedding parties.   Plus, their services are endless: airbrush tanning, waxing, brow-shaping, nails, makeup lessons.   And their prices are beyond reasonable.   I might get divorced, then married again just to have them do my complete bridal look.

Don't be jealous, Heidi.
