My Favorite Person Ever!

My Babushka (grandma) is the greatest. Tougher than a Soviet tank and sharper than a scalpel, my Ba always tells it how it is and takes no BS from anyone. She loves to fatten me up every time I visit for the summer and always makes sure the cellar is filled to capacity with her home made wine. Yes, she makes her own wine (see pic). My Babushka thoroughly enjoys a good girl gossip over a few beers and is famous for her solid, fail-proof advice. I wish I could see my Babushka more often, but she is very far away in Southern Russia... I woke up missing her very much and decided that I will do everything in my power to see my favorite person this summer!! So, I'm putting it in writing... right here, on my blog :))

Who is your favorite person ever?

Happy Bday Mr. Maquillage!!

Hello old friends and new!! Today's post is a snippet of my personal non-blogging life, introducing my beau: my BDAY boy LeeLee!! This week was hectic as Lee's best friend and I were very busy planning his surprise. My blog, in turn, went into hibernation mode and with no beauty material to share, I figured it was time to meet the man behind Maryam Maquillage!!! No one does more for this blog than my LeeLee; he is the brains behind the operation, the muscle, if you will :))) Not to mention, he's also my photographer and photo editor. Notice the photo credits at the end of my bigger blog posts :)) Yup, that's my Le Var!! So, on Sunday we celebrated... ooooh we shhelebrated LeeLee's hallmark birthday with unlimited mimosas, bellinis, and red & white sangria at a poppin' NYC brunch spot. Surpriiiiise!!!

See more pix, read our love story and meet our best friends!!
