Makeup by Jenn Dockendorf
I met Jenn at a dinner party I threw almost two years ago and since then we’ve stayed in touch. To be honest, makeup is not my strong suit. My makeup regime consists of occasionally putting on concealer when I can’t hide my exhaustion, blush in the winter when my skin looks a little greenish […]
