My husband and I decided to take the kids to Disneyland last week for a quick 5 day trip. We were having too much fun in California to go home and decided to hit a few more cities. Our final city was San Francisco we had only one day here and were driving out this morning. But as we headed out of the city this morning we decided we just couldn’t leave so we are staying a few more days. We may be living on rice and beans when we get home but for now we are having fun!

So for now I will be posting remotely to make sure no one misses on out any great new makeup products.

Erin

Hello all my product lovers. Well my dear (and lucky) friend Jocelyn was given a trip to Vegas with her hubby for her birthday. So she was whisked away on Saturday evening and won’t be back posting until Wednesday.

Now I know we all feel bad for her sleeping in, enjoying the pool with a cocktail. I know she wishes she could be here with me watching Dora and looking for the next great product. Maybe she will win big any buy me my own Sephora?

I can hear my coffee is now going and I better get posting. Have a great week and don’t feel too bad for Jocelyn. Maybe while she is stuck in those smoky, kid free casinos she will win a bunch of money.

 I’m the map, I’m the map, I’m the map, I’M THE MAP.

Welcome to Make Her Up!

Make Her Up is a site devoted to all things BEAUTY. Erin & I always want to know what’s hot – what’s new – what everyone’s using.  So we decided to create a site devoted to just that!

FAQ (Advertising & Sponsor info below):

8 CATEGORIES: We’ve broken the site down into 8 categories: Body, Eyes, Face, Fragrance, Hair, Lips, Nails & Skincare.  When you visit the homepage, you will see all the categories – mixed up together.  But if you’re only interested in seeing the “Fragrance” products, all you have to do is click on the tag titled “Fragrance” and you will see all of our posts in the Fragrance category, in chronological order!

Once it’s been submitted – it will come to us, we’ll check it out – and if it fits the site, we’ll post it!  It’s that easy!

JOCELYN: Erin and I have been friends for a verrrrrrrry long time now. We met when we were nine years old, and have been best friends ever since. Of course, it’s easy being my friend – what, with me being so understanding, non-judgemental, generous, caring and loving as I am. (I’m perfect, really)

I like to think of myself as a makeup expert.  I have - you see - tried every hair color, every eyeliner, every clumpy mascara, every blood red lipstick, every orange foundation they make.  If there was a wrong way to apply makeup – I had it down cold.  I’m not sure why I thought the clown look was hot. 

Erin and I grew up together, and let’s just say we had lots of free time to daydream. Through high-school – and college – and even into our married lives, we have always been looking for something to do together. When I started my website a couple years ago, I realized how much fun having a website could be! So Erin and I dreamed up Make Her Up – and here she is!

If there’s one thing that never gets old for Erin and I, it’s beauty products. We’re always looking for something new, a good tip, a hot find. And I know we’re not alone, so we hope to bring to you guys the hottest new (and maybe unknown) products out there!

ERIN: Once upon a time a young girl (Erin) who refused to leave the house without her scrunchie matching her shorts and shoes met another girl (Jocelyn) who loved eyeliner. Over the next 20 years they played together, chased boys, shared 21st birthdays, college dorm rooms, weddings, and babies.

Jocelyn and I have been friends for over 2 decades. We have done so many things together and we have always wanted to work on a project together.  Growing up we thought it might be a movie review show on cable access that would rocket us to stardom. With Jocelyn’s success on her website In Case You Didn’t Know we decided a website would be a great project. The one thing we both love maybe even more than our husbands is beauty products. Any kind of lotion, potion, eyeshadow, perfume, lipstick or blush gets our devotion.

Over the years of manicures and pedicures, trips to the cosmetic counters we have found many products we love. With this website we want to share some of the great products we have found and love. And learn beauty tips and finds from other women to add to our arsenal. We hope you love this site as much as we do.
