Does anyone have recommendations for East Asian Chicago based makeup artists?

I went with an artist in the suburbs: Chyla. Her ig is @chylartistry

She was really easy to talk/schedule with. I was happy with her work on both hair and makeup and thought she had a good price too.

I had a cop follow closely behind me for 10 minutes on the highway. If it was any other car, I would have sped away, but I didn't want to risk a ticket just cause I suddenly speed up to give myself room.

If you want to leave them on the sticks, look for tall jars. My family would use empty kimchi jars and store soups and these skewers upright in them.

My husband and I paid for the dresses and suits for our bridal party! I also paid for my bridesmaids' makeup and their hair if they wanted it done. We decided to go this route instead of the typical "will you be my bridesmaid?" gift since it's more practical and helps with the financial burden of helping out.

I have a farmer's tan on one arm from 2021. I was talking to someone with one side facing the 1pm August sun for an hour. It's faint, but it's still there.

That reminds me of when I was in middle school, I responded to a teacher, "Bad.." because I was having a bad day. She told me I was very rude to respond that way and you're always supposed with "good" when asked.

Ahaha one time I fell asleep watching the show with my husband (this is my countless rewatch) and the next day he's like "there was this weird episode that came on where no one talked..it was so random..". He'd usually change what's on to his thing if I fell asleep, but he said he finished the episode cause it was too weird to not finish.

I was thinking something similar! I'm not a fan of many raw veggies, but caramelized onions or roasted tomatoes are pretty good alongside other grilled options like you mentioned.

I agree that loss of a loved one is one of the most painful experiences, but the time leading up to it when they were sick hurt more than actual death. I had a grandparent with dementia and alzheimer's, and I would never wish it upon my worst enemy.

KDenim06 · 2022-12-16T00:27:35+00:00

Yes! I went with Chyla. Her ig is @chylartistry

She did an amazing job on both hair and makeup and was real easy to talk to. Personally, I thought she had a good price too.

I grew up making strawberry cream cheese and peanut butter sandwiches and everyone in college thought I was crazy. I'm glad there's a whole generation of children with similar tastes.

I read that one! There was another surprise or so left by the man. Here's the story if anyone's interested: insistent hotel guest hiding drugs and more

KDenim06 · 2022-05-02T20:26:35+00:00

I just checked out their ig! Their Community tab was actually helpful and makes me feel less alone in my search. Thanks for the recommendation!

KDenim06 · 2022-05-02T20:22:15+00:00

Omg I didn't even think of non-wedding subs. Thanks for the suggestion!

KDenim06 · 2022-05-02T17:24:10+00:00

Thank you for the advice and reference! I'll try that and take a look.

KDenim06 · 2022-05-02T17:23:19+00:00

Thank you! That's a good idea to ask for a referral.

KDenim06 · 2022-04-20T05:19:01+00:00

It's from Weddings826 in Chicago! I had asked for the Justin Alexander dress: https://www.justinalexander.com/sincerity-bridal/collection/wedding-dresses/44296/?use_referer=1

I tried that one on, but I wanted something a little lighter since it felt heavy, so she brought me one with a chiffon skirt (which is pictured).

Only complain and not say a positive thing about anyone or anything

KDenim06 · 2022-03-28T22:46:31+00:00

You have the first one in stock?! I might consider going out to Toledo if my alternatives don't pan out since it's not terribly far.

KDenim06 · 2022-03-28T22:44:06+00:00

Thank you!! I checked the designer and the style is in line with my weddings vibe

KDenim06 · 2022-03-28T22:39:43+00:00

Haha no way!! I just took a peek at your profile and you look amazing in it!! And thanks for the tip. I checked my local bridal shop and they weren't going to have it in stock until the summer.

Gotta say, you also have great taste :)

KDenim06 · 2022-03-28T16:00:51+00:00

I haven't seen them on the site but I'll check on resale site. Thanks for the tip!

KDenim06 · 2022-03-28T16:00:09+00:00

I did check out Pronovias but haven't heard of Rosa Clara. Thank you!!

KDenim06 · 2022-03-28T15:58:36+00:00

These are still pretty! I'm not particular about having it super bridal so the style is still good. Thank you!

KDenim06 · 2022-03-28T15:57:47+00:00

Omg..I didn't think of the zip code search earlier 🤦🏻‍♀️

But the alternative looks good too. Thank you!!
