the nude, contoured face
natural faces are so perfect right now, after all the overdone-ness of the past.

try: Bare Skin Blush, Fringe Lipgloss, Eyes Closed Shadow, Latte Shadow

hello!

Welcome to the new blog companion to your favorite beauty boutique, Odalisque Beauty Apothecary! If you already shop at Odalisque, then you know us. For those who haven't, we now introduce you to our friendly, helpful staff, and invite you to visit our boutique at 312 South Third Street in lovely, downtown Geneva, Illinois. You may also simply call 630-232-2070 to set up an appointment or to order product.

Our hours are Monday-Friday 10-6, Saturday 10-5, late night Thursdays until 7, and we are closed on Sundays.

We look forward to helping you!

Now, let's meet our artists!
(note that the photos represent our artists' fantasy interpretations!)

Paty
Kind and easygoing, Paty treats her clients to beautiful, soft-looking makeup with sultry, colorful eyes. She will not just cover you in the usuals. Paty is also a brow artist extraordinaire, and is bent on getting your brows and lashes looking fierce.


Chelsey
Is it possible for a 20 year old to be this good? We are hoping she won't take off to do the shows in Paris too soon. Natural, chic but with a strong, youthful statement, her style is just cool.


Bridget
Do you feel lost? Well, you needn't. Book an appointment with B. to figure it all out and feel great again. Your personal style will be distilled into something very you and fantastic.


Check back again very soon for fun inspiration and news about what's going on at the boutique!
