Ladies you must check out my girls hair/makeup blog Lady Art. My favorite section is the Step by Step where they have video tutorials of how to apply makeup. I’m not very good at painting my face but these vids make me want to run out and get the recommended brushes and makeup and go to work on my mug!

Nice job Alana and Azelle! xo

Here is the long awaited Maria Menounos story I styled for Coco Eco Magazine. There were so many good things about this shoot. Maria was an absolute sweetheart to work with and all of the amazing eco-lines we used fit her like a glove (a stylists dream). We shot in the beautiful, solar powered Marrakesh House and had an electric powered, bright orange Tesla delivered specifically for the shoot.

Happy 1st Anniversary Coco Eco mag!

Check out Cocoecomag.com for the rest of the shots and the inside scoop on TV’s green “it” girl.

With subtle hints of gardenia, jasmine & other white petal botanicals, Zuzuz Petalz is a perfume oil to transcend seasons & embody every moment of the day. It is comprised of essential/perfume oils and delicately mixed with an organic carrier, all of which are sustainable.

Isn’t she lovely? Especially in Leila Hafzi, who is one of my favorite designers at the moment.

Baby Smiley Gives Makeup Tutorial Says Eff The Ozone Layers

Posted in beauty, environment, eye candy, video/media, wtf by thuy | Tags: , , ,

Yes as in layers- she pluralized it, not me.

“Now, in order to get these razor blade sharp look you’ll get like 3 gallons of hairspray. Don’t even worry about the- what is it called? The Ozone Layers? Gotta have at least like 50 more layers left for the earth to like freeze over and explode.”

Sorry but I think this gem from Cops would’ve given a better tutorial. If you only watch one video today-make it this one. I’d quote my favorite parts, but it’d be the entire thing, so just press play.

I’m going to try this the next time I get pulled over by the po po’s.

Deep Is So Fresh And So Clean Clean

Posted in Peeps We Rep, beauty, charitable causes, environment, events, everybody's doing it, los angeles, music, organic, reduce/reuse/recycle by thuy | Tags: , , , , , , , , ,

The keystrokes have been light here in the GG&S world. With all the Earth Day celebrations going on this month, it’s been like a non-stop birthday party.

This past Sunday, our Deep team joined forces with Aveda and the Surfrider Foundation for a much needed beach cleanup at the Venice Pier. Much to my relief I didn’t come across any condom wrappers this time. Small bits of Styrofoam were the biggest problem, followed by plastic drink caps, gum wrappers, water bottles, and plastic bags.

Special thanks to Aveda for continuing the celebration after the cleanup and turning the Deep lounge into an Aveda sanctuary.

We are grateful to everyone that came to give love to Mother Earth. The Deep fam is looking forward to doing more of these in the near future so stay tuned.

First stop- Deep Venice office to prep our new organic cotton “Listen To Your Mother” tees and tanks.

Aveda team reps for Clean Water.

The Deep familia cares!

After the cleanup we went to fill our tummies with Bloody Marys brunch. Thanks Tak!

For Deep, every day is Earth Day. Our flyers are now printed on 100% recycled paper and are printed with soy ink. Hollar!
