Have the Habit

Addiction Makeup Studio & Boutique Opens

You binge on comfort food to avoid unhealthy relationships that result from codependency that you blame on abandonment issues.

Go directly to Addiction Studio, opening today on Antique Row.

The sexy, baroque-style shop’s a smorgasbord of self-medication. It’s stocked with high-end, on-trend, men’s and women’s consigned clothes and accessories from the likes of Louis Vuitton, Dior, Linea Pelle, and YSL.

Owners Joelle Brodhecker and Candice Birdsong, both makeup artists, hold makeover parties and give girls good face for a night out in the in-store makeup studio. There’s also cafe seating with coffee served on a vintagey-looking armoire.

Hey, gotta keep up with the jonesing.
