Yummy411: Best Week Ever! Beauty Blog Edition

I've only done this type of post once, well I guess twice before... here and here. For this post however, is my week to shine baby!









Why did I have the best week ever? (Okay weekend!! Dag! LOL)






because







(when I met this lady here in LA during the TB Blogger's Summit)



Tia Williams said to me......











"your makeup is flawless!"






I'm done.


(p.s. okay i'm not quite done. i love her so it was a great day for me! i will give a bit of credit to the makeup artist on set who intensified everything i had already done, by just a bit...brushed a brow, added a bit more crease color and quite a bit more bronzer.....oh by the way, guess what mascara she was fond of??? -- you know i had to ask!--Yup, our favorite L'Oreal Voluminous!! I asked her to add a bit more of that LOL! Omg! the e-drama on Tia's site is off the chain! Worst than the last time something crazy went down in the comments! Obviously, readers missed the part of about a porn director approaching her husband about exposing his 'Latin Lover' on film.. totally cracks me up and overshadows the other crap they are talking!)

Yeeeaaaah, she's got mad e-drama over there. I was readin' it like a good novel. I guess that's when you know you've made it....when you got e-hatas. Heyyyy!

....it's me, Brit. Just changed my name and alias.

OMG, you've got the longest word verification known to (wo)man. It's like 10 letters and they all look like a 3-year old wrote them. Geeez this stuff kills me on the mobile phone. Lol!

I sat next to Tia at a booksigning a few years ago. She is really fricking nice!

It was so much fun talking to her, I didn't care that nobody bought either of our books!

I really enjoy Tia's blog and she's been such an inspiration to the blogger newcomers like myself. It's a shame when people want to tear people down for such silly reasons.

Anyway, from the photos that you post here, I agree with Tia - your makeup is FLAWLESS!!! :-)

@ b: mad drama right? e-haters.. lol.. sorry.. i can't leave any comments from my pda =(

@ tammy, renren, and pjd: THANK YOU!!

@ pbw: she's so cool and down to earth. we were listening to a makeup presentation when the presenter said that the foundation comes in 3 shades... tia said, " how many?" out loud, and the lady looked a bit shook explaining that they'd exand as the demand grew... right now they only had shades that covered a good majority.. something or another.. hahaha!
