Real Simple + Olay Shoot!

Real-Simple-Olay-Shoot

Today I’m excited to share a little peek behind the scenes at a fun shoot I did at the end of the summer with Real Simple Magazine and Olay Fresh Effects for a feature in RS’s December issue.

Fun little fact for you, I was actually incredibly sick during this shoot. It was at the end of summer and I somehow managed to get the worst summer cold ever. Tonya and Debbie (the other two gals from the shoot) had flown in for it, and everything was already booked so I had to be a trooper but I could barely stand up! The Real Simple team was amazing, getting me Nyquil and tea… and I took naps between the shoot. It just goes to show you that a great makeup artist (and skincare products) is a wonderful thing… based on the photos and these videos you’d never know how bad I felt (and looked… before all the makeup!)

Next week I’ll be sharing the full feature! 🙂

      Hi Stella! Yes – it’s by Reiss! We shot in August though so I’m not sure if it is still in stores! It’s so cozy.
