American Express "Everyday Moments" Makeovers

Yesterday I had the pleasure of spending the day at Milk Studios in NYC applying makeup for the winners of the American Express Mother's Day 'Everyday Moments' contest. I met women from all over the USA and I loved hearing their personal stories and the fun experiences they've had while on this trip. 

Their day of pampering included makeup applications from Sephora Senior Artists,  hairstyling by Drybar, and a styled fashion shoot with designer dresses provided by Rent the Runway. All of this beauty fun was leading up to get the ladies ready to attend a Maroon 5 concert later in the evening. Besides getting the winners glammed up, American Express brought them to a filming of the Today Show, took them to see a broadway musical and sent them home with lots of goodies. Actress Kristen Bell even attended and mingled with the winners!

I had a ton of fun attending the event and meeting all of the women, it was great to be a part of their special trip and see their transformation.
