Welcome back to another edition of Locals I Love! This week, I'm shouting out a special lady who helps make me feel beautiful whether I am actually sitting in her chair or watching her YouTube videos from home. I'm talking about the lovely Asia Th3 MUA . Asia is a local M·A·C Cosmetics certified MUA, educator, creator, and influencer that I have been blessed to get Graced By a few times! The reason Asia stands out to me so much as a local MUA I love is that she doesn't just have a single look that she gives to every client. She is an actual ARTIST . She seems to take her clients features and make her own work of art. Not only is she gracing faces all over the Las Vegas Valley, but her Youtube videos also give future MUA's and current freelancers tips and lessons on becoming successful in their own businesses! I am not the best at doing my own makeup, but her Youtube page has been helping me elevate my own makeup game! Watch this video to...

Welcome back to the second edition of the Locals I Love series! This week I am telling you all about one of my new favorite brands to keep up with and adorn myself with, the Wallet Friendly Luxury of Bougie Girl Vegas . Bougie Girl Vegas is an online accessory boutique that I came across while looking for a local place to get my jewelry from instead of always shopping overseas for a discount, or going into a mass retailer that doesn't actually care about me and the look I'd like to portray with their jewelry.

It didn't even take a second thought, and I've been here for the brand ever since. For me, it matters so much more what the person who runs the business is about than anything else, and just recently I got the opportunity to meet the beautiful young woman who runs the business. Cortney is a Las Vegas local t...

Welcome to my first edition of Locals I Love! This is going to be a weekly series I run where I will feature local people, businesses and services that are amazing, aiding our community and I think we should all know more about. To start this all off, I couldn't think of anyone whose commitment to the community I admire more than my very own mother, Frances Urtaza ! Frances is a local Reiki Master, Seraphim Blueprint instructor, facilitator, divine channel, crystal enthusiast, and the worlds most amazing mother (and a cool Mom at that) just to name a few things she does. She has aided hundreds in our local area through meditations, energetic shares, teaching classes on the different modalities she uses and by being a sympathetic and understanding shoulder to lean on and an ear to listen. Once a month, she gifts to anyone available a free phone in guided meditation and energetic share where everyone can call in and have a moment to unwind, relax and tune in to a higher fr...
