ABOUT ME

Hi, have we met? I’m Ivy.

I’ve been working in the beauty industry since 2012, when I started this blog and began working for Sephora inside JCPenney, RIP. Now, I spend my days working as a freelance makeup artist and I really love my job.

I live with my husband Jake and our 4 rescue cats just outside Des Moines, Iowa in a home we built. We love filling our house with mid century furniture.

I love animals more than makeup and because of that, only feature cruelty-free products on this blog.
