About

The Author



My name is Annabelle - Belle for short.  I'm a 20-something young professional born and raised in Silver Spring, Maryland.  I graduated from Visitation and left the area for college.  After graduating from Villanova, I decided to move back to the DMV (DC-MD-VA).  I currently work in DC, but moonlight as a beauty blogger (with the occasional mix of random stuff).  My ultimate career goal is to work in the health field, but I also hope that I can also work on one of my favorite hobbies, writing.

When I'm not working, studying, or blog writing, I love to read, shop, volunteer (member of Greater DC Cares), watch sports (love my DC teams and my 'Nova Wildcats!), try new restaurants, and spend time with my family and friends.  




The Blog


Sweet Blushes (formerly known as MakeUp Actually) started in May 2010 and stems from my love of makeup, health, and personal wellness.  It's basically my outlet to write about what I love.  Sweet Blushes is mainly a beauty blog, but I hope to incorporate other things in the near future.  This blog is not just about looking good on the outside, but it's about feeling good about yourself too!  You can follow me here, on Facebook and on Twitter.


Thank you for visiting :)


Xoxo,
Belle
