HIS 9 to 5 by www.inkcosmetics.com


HIS 9 to 5 by INKCosmetics.com

Fall is filled with family time, holiday happiness, and new experiences.

We’ve noticed an array of new campaigns and couldn’t help but jump on the band wagon. I took about an hour in the woods with my wonderful husband and soul mate Christopher Crabb. All to cover “His 9 to 5” a shoot which will be part of our continued Unisexed Campaign for Spring 2012.

Chris, an avid ink…cosmetics men’s skin care user and ultimate sexy rugged metrosexual, works hard and plays hard. While at work, he sports suits by H & M® or Ralph Lauren® as you see here with a side arm for protection at minimum. While on his turf (acres of open land,) for play he’s armed with his favorite Firestorm Bow by PSE®. I love a man who can function well in business attire.

Is your man in need of a new skincare regimen? Have him try Chris’ fool proof technique to keep his skin feeling sexy all winter long.

Apply small amount of Men’s Facial Cleanser by ink…cosmetics, lather and rinse.

EXTRA CARE
For that extra finish, spoil him by booking a Men’s manicure at your nail salon while you get yours.

  • Eat a good breakfast.
  • Dress warm.
  • Make sure your weapon is sighted in.
  • Do pre-season scouting.
  • Invest in a good tree stand.
  • Wear camoflauged clothing. (MUA Note: Suit for editorial shoot only)
  • Wear something bright during gun season.
  • Remain silent.

Neverending Story Editorial Shoot

I cannot even begin to explain the weekend I had.  First, I worked my butt off all week trying to fix a military mix up, then my on duty agent calls were out of control. I did get to squeeze in two makeup applications though.  One for my good friend and biggest ink... cheerleader Shaina Millan who came by the W Salon today for a little one-on-one makeup application with me and left with a bag full of her favorite must have ink...cosmetics items. 

THE OTHER   ????

An awesome event for ink... this weekend was working with Ms. Katherine Gaines of AmbientEye Photography, model Jessie Landry and stylist Emily Bodak.  I had the opportunity to do hair and makeup for our creatively cultivated Neverending Story Editorial Shoot.  Completely brilliant!  I will not disclose too much in hopes that are photos will be picked up by an undisclosed magazine.  Fingers crossed! Thanks ladies for such a great weekend!
