~ All things beauty - especially vintage GLAM! ~
Makeup and hair tutorials, vintage fashions, dressmaking, beauty-enhancing foods/recipes, and maybe a review here and there ;-)

I also have a facebook page if you'd like to share pics, ask questions, see what I'm up to, etc @ http://www.facebook.com/Aja...
About Me:
 
Hi!! I'm Aja :-) I'm a makeup artist who loves all things vintage and I'm a total self-professed beauty-holic, haha. I graduated college with a degree in microbiology and immunology, but my addiction to makeup and vintage glamour has led me to pursue a career in makeup artistry and take up sewing vintage inspired dresses as well.

I just decided to start uploading videos to satiate the crazed beauty addict that I am, so we'll see where that takes me. ...oh the possibilities :-P

I hope you enjoy! Thank you!!
