Glimpse Of Merlot & Makeup

Overlook of the evening

The evening started with girls admiring the colors and shades from their seats, wondering who will be the first one to start playing. With a little persuasion and encouragement to beginning, there was no end. The girls were trying on lipsticks, eye shadows, and liners in no time! The bright vibrant colors and rich pigments were attractive to the eyes, making it hard to decide which one to pick up first.

Later Olivia Li, Eric, and their friend accompanied us for the evening. Olivia Li was our guest of honor, she is the youngest millionaire at Shop.com and has already retired herself! It was truly an honor to have her at the event. Earlier that day she was the guest speaker at an event in Queentown, MD. Immediately after the event, she came straight to our event. It was an hour and half drive but she came especially for our guest.

Alongside Olivia and our other guest of honors, we had Ruby Kaur from New York come as well. She has been working with Motives Cosmetics for 2 years now. She is a certified Motives Customize Foundation Specialist. With her busy schedule and traveling, she took the time out to attend the event and make customize foundations for our guests.

There was chatter of beauty throughout the room. Ladies got to try our Lumiere De Vie Facial Cleanser to remove their makeup and get customize foundation made. The ladies were amazed by the texture and application of the foundation. The colors match perfectly!

As some got their customize foundations made, other nibbled on snacks while testing out Motives Eye Base with the various pigments. The eye base neutralizes the eyelid, keeps from creasing, and makes the colors more vibrant. Another favorite trail was Motives Collagen Core Lipstick, it moisturizes, reduces fine lines, and promotes elasticity.

Overall the event was successful. Everyone left with goodies and a new passion for Motives Cosmetic!

Wine Tasting at the Galleria

White or Red Wine?

Over the weekend, we went to a mini wine tasting at Tyson Galleria Mall. A new restaurant opened up called Vino Volo. After a week of craziness, this was perfect. We sat at the bar and took a look at the menu. The menu was clipboard to a wooden cutting board; simple and cute. There is a set of three wines in each tasting. The catchy and creative names made it hard to pick. I got the Fireplace Red and my husband got the Winter Whites. The waiter was polite and knowledgeable about wines.

Alongside our wine, I got a salmon dish and bowl of almond. I have to admit the almonds were delicious! The unique blend of herbs went amazing with the wines. I liked the salmon dish as well. My husband doesn't eat fish so I can't say we both enjoyed it. We sat there for couple of hours just talking... about life & business of course. The atmosphere was so relaxing. All you needed was a fireplace and it would be perfect! 

We had a slight buzz going on from the wine. We decided to go home and make it a movie night. Looking through our list of option, we picked The Butler. Wonderful choice. It really makes you understand and feel what it was like to be an African American during those times. The difficulties they faced constantly. Not being able to look a white man in the eye or stand for what you believe is right. It was also interesting to see that not every African American was for the movement, Freedom Fighters or Black Panther. Also to realize that this wasn't too long ago. And now we have an African American President. Amazing how times have changed yet there are still people that are racist.

Great way to end the night, with great wine and an amazing movie.
