I’ve been tearing through this book, Passport to Beauty, by Shalini Vadhera.  It is such an inspiration to me and, it’s just what I’ve been wanting to do for this blog.  I come from a multi-national background (Brazilian dad, French mom, Cuban babysitter, Guyanese best friend, etc…)

One thing all my extended family, friends and acquaintances have in common is a desire to be beautiful.  No matter what women have a desire to be perceived as pretty, of course the standards differ greatly around the world and so does the method.

Shalini is a world traveler and makeup artist.  She brings to us in book format all the international beauty secrets she could pack.  I’ll be spilling the contents little by little, and have some upcoming product reviews to share on her fab Global Goddess Line.
