🔥 One HOT Momma and 2 munchkins in one photo! 😉 Yep you read that right! Two ✌🏽! Baby Vansh in my belly and Raajah (Big Bro) under my skirt. Raajah has been following me around and has been my security detail for at least 3 months now. Wherever I go, he goes! Raajah just came and sat right next to me as I was getting my pics taken so I fluffed out my skirt and just put it over him. He stayed there the entire time! 🤣 Officially a #boymom to two BOYS! Can’t even express how excited both Harshal, myself and the family is! 📸 @nirmibee HAMU @redlotusartistry with our new Lotus Lashes in Classy Outfit - STAY TUNED more 2021 plans to be revealed. If you read this far, you’re the realest! 😘

From the moment I found out I was pregnant it’s been nothing but moments of curiosity. 🧸 will I be a good mom? 🧸 am I really ready for this? 🧸 what if I have a miscarriage? 🧸 what if I’m doing things wrong? 🧸 is this the right amounts of veggies, fruits, nuts, and more? 🧸 IS IT A BOY OR GIRL? ....and so much more.... Curiosity really is/was driving me nuts, and I’m told that never stops. So thanks to all the amazing moms for updating me on that. I needed to hear that. This past weekend was special; my parents, my sister, husband, special group of friends who kept a big OLE’ smile on my face as we showered our baby the best way COVID would allow us to. And then the moment arrived; the answer to are we having a boy or girl! (Im going to insert here that both Harshal and my side are filled with nothing but girls - but that’s a story for another day). Then we found it out that our little handsome prince Vansh is on his way into our hearts come March. For sure active shock is the right way to describe that moment but SUPER excited to be an official #boymom 🧿 But, needless to say, the questions, uncertainties and curiosities continue. Drop any tips & tricks for this #boymomlife I’m about to venture in to below please! Photos by the incredible and talented @nirmibee 📸

Green Glitter + Nude Lips + Add a Bow and you got yourself a Christmas look! Of course the red top helps too! Merry Christmas to everyone. Hope your day was filled with all the joy everyone wants and needs. This year brought many unplanned changes, dilemmas, issues, growth even in places we didn’t think we needed them. BUT, we are and we are still getting through it all together. Myself and the #rlaglamsquad can’t thank YOU enough for your continued love, support and WANT to work with us. 2021 is going to bring more changes and growth and we very much look forward to them all - especially with BabyRLA on the way! Peace and Love to you and your loved ones!

Do you, as a makeup artist or even when you’re applying your own makeup happen to catch yourself NOT breathing when you’re doing certain parts of your makeup routine?! I definitely used to do that FOR SURE! Especially, when I’d do eyeliner on myself AND on my clients! Now..... I can do liner breathing perfectly normal. Of course PRACTICE has everything to do with that! The old saying, “practice makes perfect.” Would you like a tutorial on how I do my own eyeliner? Drop a thumbs up 👍🏽 in the comments and I’ll show you how! P.C. - @_rafaelgamez

Date Night Glam + Baby Shopping literal shenanigans! HALP me! Yup it’s that time in the RLA house! We get so many questions about nursery and all. But, heck, are we the only ones that are waiting until end of month 6 to work on those things? 🤔 We don’t feel behind but the pressure is there to get things sorted for sure. SO, With the pandemic and all my glam level definitely has decreased QUITE a bit! Lol! I’ve even questioned my own articles of clothing, fashion and lack of getting in my makeup room. Some pretty hilarious outfits. Should I share my looks? 🤪 But, today I went in bc I felt I needed to get adventurous! - brown lip (like, WHAT!,) I never do that! @makeupforever I actually LOVE IT! - natural wavy hair (no hot tools at all) with some @bumbleandbumble hair texturizer - full coverage foundation @beccacosmetics that I tried for the first time and OMG IN LOVE! - didn’t do lashes but I used the @ctilburymakeup mascara I scored during the @nordstrom sale and another LOVE product! All this to just go to @nfmpics and look at some gliders! But, let me tell you it felt great dressing up, glamming up and making it across town with Harshal! #danessamyricks #makeupartistsworldwide #indianbeauty #indianbeautysecrets #babylistbumps #firstbabyontheway #datenight #husbandandwife #dallasmua #dallashairstylist #dallasmakeupartist #brownskingirls #browngirlblogger #brownlipstick #firsttimemom #helpme #crownthebrown #indianmuas #rlaglamsquad #beccacosmetics #makeupforever #maccosmetics #nofilter

✨glammed up✨ Doing my makeup while 5 months pregnant was no easy feat! Hot one second, hungry the next and then uncomfortable the next. Working on clients also hasn’t been an easy task either because working with a mask on... UM helllooo.... pregnancy during Covid hasn’t been easy. Why am I sharing this?! No other reason then the fact that even the stuff we love to do, the things we are great at, the things we get complete joy out of sometimes can just be the opposite! BUT, we do it because it keeps us going. And that’s good right?! I needed the reminder to get back in my #makeupgoals and #makeuptutorials because I LOVE teaching. This is the look I did for our 2020 family photo and pregnancy shoot! I can NOT wait to share our photos that amazing @nirmibee took! Stay tuned! P.S.- we all need some motivation and uplifting sometimes, being on the motivation IG fam!

Happy New Year! Sal Mubarak! Nutan Varshabhinandhan! 🎉🎇🪔 May this year bring everyone the lit year we lost this past year and bring it with double the light, love, laughter, joys we all need and deserve. 🎉🎇🪔🎉🎇🪔🎉🎇🪔🎉🎇🪔🎉

Who knows someone that knows someone that knows someone that always captures a shot of you in the most random crazy position or awkward look?!?! I’m Hi hello, ME! Lol! (If you were to go through my phone you’d laugh to see them too). Ok REELING it back in! I look like a crazy person or I look perfectly perfect? I’m going with perfectly perfect, and here is why: - I’m teaching my star student @rx.dolls - education is everything when becoming a Master Artist. - I want my MUA’s of the world to know that it takes doing to learn what you could have done better. - it takes taking risks to be able to look beyond what we already know. - from the making of 2 very different looks Dolly was able to learn about 10 things she didn’t know prior. Her foundation of becoming a strong and confident makeup artist has been set. I’m pushing her boundaries in ways she didn’t think was possible. We are on week 4 of makeup training and SHE. IS. KILLING. IT! Dolly, I’m SO proud of you and how far you’ve come! Keep going! Possibilities are endless! 💕 #dallas #dfwmua #dallasmakeupartist #dallasmakeupartists #makeupacademy #educationispower #teachingartist #masterartist #rlaglamsquad #rlamakeupartistry #teachergram #educatorsofinstagram #muasupport #maccosmetics

The makeup look I did when we were heading to Houston to tell my parents and sister that they were about to be upgraded to Grandparents & Masi (Aunt). Our journey to becoming future parents wasn’t easy, and that story Harshal and I will definitely share.

What’s missing in this picture? 🤔 It’s real easy! (Answer are the end) . As RLA is embarking on new things and classes and coaching, I can’t help but think..... WHAT THE FU#K is missing?. . We are always our own worst critics! That’s like an understatement! Mindset has been my biggest priority over the last 4 weeks. (Yeah, I have the best fam, friends and team a girl could ever ask for). . It’s MORE than that. I want to be perfect! I want to be be the best leader. I want to be the best MUA. I want to be the best at marketing. I want to be the best at EVERYTHING! Realistic huh? Hell NO! . Sooooo, I’ve FINALLY reached the understanding what ONE step at a time REALLY means. Shit ain’t gonna happen if I shut down. I can’t be the best at ANYTHING if I try to be perfect at it all! . Problems, mistakes, failures ARE OKAY! And I’m ok with that if and when it were to happen. But for NOW, I’m choosing to say NOTHING is effing missing besides the fact that I wasn’t showing up FOR myself! . No more LOTUSES..... I’m back with fierce y’all! 💯 . Drop a 💯 in the comments if you agree mindset over matter! . . . . . Also, lashes are what’s missing in my picture! LASHES! 😒 How’d that happen? oh well..... I’m NOT perfect! 🤪

Yeah. So it’s not a sexy 2 piece!Vulnerability: for me has been my health journey for a decade now. . I can give you a list of all that I’ve been through in the last 10 years but that’s not point of this post! . This post is to SHOW you that YOU are worth it and ARE absolutely able to show up for yourself and success is right there looking at you in the face! That’s what happened for me and my MUA career! . I thought for a LONG ASS time that there is no room for a “BIG” girl and the Artistry world! No one would see me the same as that skinny MUA that’s way successful. . And in my eyes it seemed as if I could ONLY be successful if I lost weight and got skinny. . THIS caused more pain, strain and stress for myself! . It wasn’t until recently (mid 2019) that I overcame that nonsense, bc THAT is exactly what it is.... nonsense. . With me throwing out the negative mindset in came the flood of confidence, self respect AND success! . Bc YOU KNOW what, humans have that sense of finding fear, like a dog at airport sniffing for drugs, and humans act on it, or the lack of. . I WOULD have NEVER EVER posted a picture me in a swimsuit, let alone it NOT being a sexy two piece prior to 2019! . BUT, I accepted who I am for what I am! And people LOVE me for it! I grew my business so quick at that point and jump started classes, and 2020 was almost fully booked up (pre-corona). . It’s that whole quote, “if I can do it, so can you!” . Is success lurking away in the darkness for you? Are you not jump starting your biz bc there is fear built up? I can help! DM me a 💛 and I’d love to chat with you! . . . . . . . . . . @jera.bean @thesocialmediasaloon #socialmediasaloon #success #smallbusinessowners #biggirlswinning #bossbabe #mua #dallasmua #dallasmakeupartist #womenempire #womenempowerment #inspiringwomen #inspiringmakeupartist #selfconfidence #muabiz #muacoach #behappy #chooseyou #rlaglamsquad #rlacoaches #indianmuas #growyourmuabusiness #wegotthis #makeupbusiness #makeupbusinesscoach #makeupbizcoach #sheo #femaleentrepreneur #makeupartist #dallas #dfwbusinesscoaching
