About Me

MySpace Profile Photo Editor I'm Elle. Co-owner of Spell Cosmetics. www.spellcosmetics.com I have worked between NY and LA over the last 18 yrs making people beautiful! I started my career as an educator for Goldwell, Framesi, and regional artistic director for ARTec, which got my foot in the door to do behind the scenes styling/make-up artistry for runway and photoshoots. I've done shows for Betsey Johnson, Ralph Lauren and countless other trade shows. Although fun and glamorous, I am devoted to my hometown right here in Cleveland! This year I have finally realized my dream and launched a cosmetics line. It is ever evolving and my work is never done! I love the creative process of formulating...it makes up for all the times I wished a product would work differently than it did. I am completely open to new product ideas, so email me any you may have or feel free to ask me any questions! This is my personal myspace,a totally non judgemental place. Whatever your gender or lifestyle, this is the place for you!!!!!

Desiderata, an old favorite...

Go placidly amid the noise and the haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence. As far as possible, without surrender, be on good terms with all persons. Speak your truth quietly and clear...

In honor of mothers day...

...I had to put up a song that hugely reminds me of my childhood!  It's definately out of my usual genre, but I digress.      I was driving home today, and it came on the radi...

I would make a terrible farmer...

Okay, I gave it my best shot.  I have all these romantic notions about gardening, and I love it once it's done, but.... I lie to myself and everyone else that I put in "a full day's work". And I ...

If Demi Moore was a valley girl that guzzled codeine cough syrup...

What will I be like when I’m old?

I had to run a bunch of errands this morning.  Of course I decided to run them in my new rockin' 4" Colin Stuart wood sole sandals I've been dying to wear for 2 monthes.  The floors of the s...
