The Lauren Scruggs Kennedy Foundation

After my accident, my prosthetic arms brought another level of healing and wholeness, and it broke my heart to know insurance failed to provide for many. I couldn't be more excited to announce that the Lauren Scruggs Kennedy Foundation has launched! We exist to bring hope, restore dignity, and ignite faith in girls and women by providing beautiful cosmetic coverings for prostheses. Read more about our story and mission on our website to see how you can get involved, or maybe you know someone we can serve. P.S. Any Stranded purchase gives a percentage to the foundation!

my makeup go-tos.

If I'm honest, I would rather spend an hour on my hair and five minutes on my makeup when I am getting ready. My sister has always been so talented at the art of blending eye shadows and making your face a masterpiece, so my focus remained on curling my hair with a straightener and round brushing my locks. I have started getting more into makeup the last few years, although I generally prefer more of a natural look. Buuuut...I still have my all time favorites (some I use every day; some are saved for special occasions).Clockwise from the left:'Diorskin Airflash' Spray Foundation: I wear this on night's when I want my make-up to last. This makes your skin look like porcelain yet still looks natural. I use this buffer brush to blend it into my skin.MAC Eye Brow Brush: Filling in eye brow gaps and naturally shaping them makes a world of difference.MAC Paint/Brown Script Eyeshadow/Sketch Eyeshadow: Putting on this MAC paint will keep your eyeshadow in tact all night. These are my go-to shades that I wear to a dinner out with friends, a fun event, or a work meeting.MAC Select Cover Up: On the sleepiest day, this will make you look fresh and bright. I use this brush to apply.Chantecaille 'Hi Definition' Perfecting Powder: I always put this on after my everyday foundation using this brush, and it makes your look skin flawless.MAC Powder Blush/MAC Bronzing Powder: Most of the time I use only the bronzer, but at times I use the blush on my cheek bones to add some color and dimension.
