I don’t brag about these babes enough, soooo HERE WE GO!!! Let me introduce you to the Blush & Tease Dream Team. When you come to the studio for your boudoir shoot you will have the privilege of meeting 2 of them. They are all INSANELY good at what they do (like, the best in Denver). Your jaw is gonna DROP when you see your hair & makeup! But more than that, every single one of them has a heart for empowering women. They each have a story, and just like you they endure challenges, they work through hard things, and they show up ready to help you do the same.
I can’t really explain the feeling of sitting in a chair, getting pampered by women holding that kind of space for you. It is incredible, you gotta feel it to really get it. So dive in and meet my favorite small business owner babes in Denver.
(Dream team left to right: Me, Jamie, Nicole, Tina, Heather & Hayley. Also pictured is my amazing hubby, Travis. He helps me keep the wheels turning around here. And Paige, my beautiful trusty assistant when I need an extra hand!)
NICOLE TOLEDO MAKEUP ARTISTRY – https://nicoletoledomakeupartistry.com/
Nicole offers makeup application, makeup lessons, waxing, and lash goodies. She is the BROW QUEEN! Her space is feminine and relaxing. Spending time in her chair feels like 1000% pure self care. She’s always nailing the dramatic looks but also knows how to let freckles and natural perfections shine through. I’m a little obsessed with her (if you can’t tell)! Here is her INSTAGRAM, go give her some love!
“I love being part of the Blush & Tease team for so many reasons…my favorite being part of a women’s comeback story or allowing them to see themselves in a different light. Being part of the process which empowers women to look and feel their best is the BEST feeling in the world.” – Nicole Toledo
MAKEUP BY HEATHER B – https://hbmakeup.com/
Heather has been a part of the team for as long as Blush & Tease has been in Colorado! I knew as soon as I saw her work that I HAD to have her. She knows how to bring out my client’s natural beauty, whether you’re going for a smoky vibe or just want to look natural, she’s got you covered. In the 12 years I’ve worked with her, she has never stopped impressing me. I’ve watched her walk through some very hard things and listened to her dream about being vulnerable and telling her story. She now holds a women’s empowerment event (Be You Beautifully) every year that truly changes people’s lives. AND she has her own makeup line! She’s crazy good at teaching people how to use different products on her INSTAGRAM. Heather is a dynamic dreamer who is always showing up for her people. Go shop her makeup line or visit her at her adorable studio in downtown Littleton!
“My favorite part of being on the B&T team isn’t just doing makeup (though I do enjoy that). What I love most is witnessing the bravery of these women as they choose to invest in themselves.” – Heather Baker
HAYLEY STYLES – https://www.hayleystyles.com/
If you’re in the market for a new hair babe, hold on tight as you I introduce you to the 3 best in Denver…starting with Hayley.
Hayley’s energy is 10/10. Totally recommend any day of the week! She asks the best questions and truly listens to your answers. She’s the curly girl that we all want to figure out how to be! And when you sit in her chair you know you’re in good hands. She has catered to my fine, very picky hair for years now and she’s taught me how to care for it so I can actually love it! Here’s her INSTAGRAM to follow!
“I love being a part of this team because I get to be a small part in an experience that I believe is beautiful and nurturing for every woman. I am honored to be a part of a team that embraces every woman’s beauty, inside & out.” – Hayley Hales
JAMIE PITTMAN – https://www.citrinesalonco.com
Although my team can get kinda rowdy, Jamie is probably the most reserved. When you meet her you are immediately greeted with a sense of peace and calm. She communicates in a way that makes you take a breath and be present. It is such a gift to everyone she interacts with! Also let me tell you, girlfriend is REALLLL good at what she does. Don’t let her gentle demeanor fool you. She is passionate, hilarious, and ready to remind you that you showing up for yourself matters! INSTAGRAM love on her right now! And while you’re at it, schedule a cut, color or even some extensions…you’ve been wanting to, so get on it!
“One of my favorite things about being a part of the Blush & Tease team is empowering others to see themselves in a new, confident light. It’s incredible to see clients transform from feeling shy or nervous to embracing and celebrating their beauty. Knowing that these photos, hair styling, and makeup can boost their self esteem and become a reminder of their strength and beauty is incredibly rewarding and one of the biggest reasons I chose a career path in the beauty industry.” – Jamie Pittman
TINA MARIE HAIRSTYLING – https://www.tinamariehairstyling.com/
Tina gets ahold of hair and makes us all stand back watching, totally in awe. I mean go check out her INSTAGRAM and you’ll see what I mean…especially HER BRAIDS! She’s a pocket sized powerhouse that never ceases to amaze me. Watching her navigate running a business through the challenges of life is nothing short of inspiring. If you get lucky enough to find yourself in her chair, you will not only have hair that you LOVE, you’ll laugh, you’ll connect, and you’ll have plenty to talk about. She sees you and dives right into your world. Get on her books ASAP!
But really, Dream Team, there are no words to explain how much I adore every single one of you. THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH for being a part of my team. I could not do what I do without you. Read that a million times and it will never stop being true. YES, you make my clients look and feel beautiful but you are also like soul sisters to me. I feel so lucky that I get to do this with you by my side.
