I’m so excited to announce that I’ve added some fun products to my shopping cart. Here Comes The Makeup by Zipora! Southern California residents and sisters, Zipora and Erica decided to team up to create and design an upscale makeup and body line that will help anyone get ready for their upcoming big event. With the expertise and background that they both possess, the line is going to have you looking your best.

Zipora is a professional event planner (Events By Zipora) and wedding consultant thru the Association of Bridal Consultants. She has been in project management roles for over 10 years and decided to bring her background of marketing and design out with Here Comes the Makeup. “ I wanted to give every woman out there a place to go to get products that will have them feeling great. The market is flooded with products that claim they work, but don’t. I wanted to give everyone a chance to experience top quality products at affordable prices that do work and give you the results you want.”

Erica is one of the West Coast top cosmetic chemists. She has been a member of the Society of Cosmetic Chemist for over 18 years and in the industry for over 20 years. Erica has worked with such lines as StriVectin, Jergens, Bath & Body Works, Disney, Warner Bros. and much more.
