Kevin Murphy Color Bug

Dip-dyed hair styling is such a fun way to change up your look and play a little. You can color-block the end of your ponytail or have a sweet little colorful ombre!  You can mess round, wear it, and know that it’s going to wash out when you get bored since it’s temporary.  Our favorite hair chalk for the dip-dying is Kevin Murphy’s Color Bugs.  They’re easy to use, come in great colors, and most importantly are formulated to come out (art store chalk is a gamble, ladies).

Heres how to do it!

1. Decide what look you want and think about what type of placement you want.  All over, ombre, color-blocked at the bottom. If you’re going to have your hair up, put it up now.
2. Apply product- you need to have some product on your hair to protect your hair and give the color a bit more to grab on to. Spray the portion you will be chalking with hairspray. If you have super light hair, put in a Argan Oil or leave-in conditioner before it dries as extra insurance for it to come out.  If you twist your hair as you apply it there will be more texture for the chalk to attach to.  If your hair is super-dark and the color isn’t showing, you can dampen your hair with water for more color-payoff. Brush it a bit when you’re finished color-bugging so that excess comes out and dosen’t get on your clothes.
3. Enjoy your colored style!
4.To wash out, brush as much out as you can first before getting it wet.  

The Cream LA – a good ‘ol time

The Cream has come and gone but I wanted to share what a fabulous event it was!  The Cream is a curated event that is a experiential showcase of all the best talent in the party and wedding industry.  It was beautiful, fresh, delicious, and FUN!  Anything but traditional and we were thrilled to be invited to participate, getting all the gals gorg.

The Creme was held at the grand and lovely Vibiana.

There were so many beautiful things to look at with all the talented vendors showing off what they do best.

There was amazingly delicious food, drink, and treats of all kind.

We dolled up the ladies with lux Winks lashes topped with emerald and cobalt liner and a manicure bar with Incoco Nail Wraps!

And most importantly everyone danced and laughed and had themselves a good ‘ol time.

And there was even a dance contest to win a honeymoon trip to Mexico from Ever After Honeymoons. This guy won when….

he whipped out fan as his dance partner.  He and his fan are going to have a fab time in Cancun!

So that’s about the size of it, we we’re so excited to be chosen for this amazing group! You have to go the next time around, it is a blast!  Follow them on Twitter @thecreamevent so you know when and where.

The beautiful photos were taken by especially chosen Rad & In Love, Raya Carlisle, and Paige Lowe. You can see who all the vendors that participated and so much more photo goodness here, here, and here in 100 Layer Cake.
