Best of Beauty: Primp Palaces
PRIMP ME OUT The Primping Parleur. Beauty is more than skin-deep—it’s a lifestyle. And we primpers want a new experience while shelling out for shellac. A handful of O.C. beauty mavens get it.
Enter Lisa Winters, owner of Brea’s Primping Parleur, and Jeannie Lorin, the brains behind H.B.’s Beauty Society, which features an in-house lab. The former offers elusive lines Paul and Joe, Kevyn Aucoin and Becca in a frilly, pink, feel-good interior.
“Every client who comes in here gets an earful from me,” Winters says of her unabashed maquillage mania.
The beauty junkie worked runways and photo shoots as a makeup artist for 13 years, so your face is putty as her palette. Lorin’s search for perfect skin led to her product line its star, Enormous Lash thickening serum (a Kim Kardashian fave).
Aside from workshops galore and private pampering, both spots boast lofts for all-out vanity indulgence.
