I started this blog to have a place to keep up with my wonderful parents when they moved 800 miles away from me. With the advent of FaceTime and free cell-to-cell minutes this little section of Cyberland has been completely neglected.

A few years ago I had some crazy health issues. Make-up helped me feel better about myself. Since then, my health has been pretty dang good! I’ve even done a couple 5k’s and have a happy life.

Several years ago, my amazing BF got a job in the aesthetics industry. He works many hours in a week. In order to see him more, he asked me to join him at industry trade shows and conventions. What fortuitous timing, right?

So, here I am, many trade shows later, cabinets full of cosmetics and an old (now repurposed) blog named Eyeliner and Bourbon. Why not talk about my favorite things and have y’all read it??

This week I plan on telling tales from Cosmoprof North America that was in Las Vegas. I met some amazing people that represent some awesome brands. I’ll leave you with a little teaser, my two very full bags and a whiskey sour from Rx Boiler Room! Lugging theses bags through Mandalay Bay to The Luxor was a work-out in of itself! Luckily, there’s cocktails!

Cheers!
