The Late Show: Big Girl Cosmetics at Macy’s on State Street

By  | 

This news isn’t exactly new and I’m once again on the late show but I had to share what Macy’s been up to lately. It’s good. It’s reeeeal good.

Remember when Oprah gave everyone in her audience a brand new car? Chicago’s Kiley Russell was fortunate enough to attend the show that day but had the foresight to quickly sell her new Pontiac G6 and fund her dreams. Today, instead of holding the keys to a greatly depreciated bright red car, Kiley is the Founder and CEO of Hyde Park favorite Big Girl Cosmetics- a complete cosmetics line, makeup bar, and full service spa. Having received free Kiley is giving free to all Chicago beauties by hosting a makeup class GRATIS at Macy’s on State Street this Friday, March 29th between 4-6pm and Saturday, March 30th between 11am-1pm. Learn how to apply your own custom makeup look, receive detailed application instructions and pick up a free gift if you spend $65 or more. If attending the lesson hosted by Big Girl Cosmetics at Macy’s on State Street, register here.

 

Marilyn Monroe at Macy’s

I’d suggest you check out Macy’s new Marilyn Monroe inspired collection while you’re there. The line, which debuted this month, includes pieces inspired by the iconic beauty and is available both in store and online. Like we needed another reason to book that beach vacation, right? Here are a few of my favorites from the line:
