Memoir

I am Vanessa Lauren, 20 years young & an Iowa resident. I graduated from Capri College's makeup aristry program in March 2009. I am currently attending La James International College's aesthetics program & I graduate July 2011. I have been in the beauty industry for over 3 years now. I have worked on countless photo shoots, at weddings & proms. I have worked for such companies ast Estee Lauder & Mary Kay but unfortuneately they weren't the right fit for me. I have a tremendous passion for this industry. I dream of one day owning my own organic & vegan  cosmetics company that is not only "green" but makes the world a better place through charity.

I live by truth, love & serenity. I believe in hope & I know no bounds. Being orthodox is overrated & dreams are everlasting.

XOXO, Vanessa Lauren
