Kit progression

I found a wonderful website that is perfect for makeup artists pretty much everything you need. I'll do a post later on about what I plan to get and another one after I make my order.

Current Lust

Im loving these products...

These are just like Red Cherry lashes. My favorites are 747 M.

A great spin on the original.

NYX lip pencils are so affordable and they work great.

elf brow kit, somehow I picked up light but I really love the brow wax.


Prussian eye shaddow by MAC. I've been all about the navy smokey eye lately.

Im Baaaaaaack!

Hello ladies! I am back in full swing, I got a new laptop and camera for Christmas. Not to mention tons of makeup. So I have lots of fun things coming up.

This blog started as a school project, but I think I'm going to keep it up as I move forward in my career. Oh yeah and I passed my practical next stop theory!

I've met my match

As much as I love makeup and hate my hyperpigmentation I have never been one to wear makeup everyday. BUT since my recent purchase of MAC's pro longwear concealer I have been wearing makeup everyday. Even on days when I say I don't feel like putting on any makeup I soon find myself with a concealer brush in my hand and a smile on my face. I purchased the concealer in NW45 which is my exact skin color, so I could just conceal what I need to on my face and litteraly do nothing else to my face and go on with my day. I usually do dust a little pressed powder on anyway just to set the concealer and it stays all day. Anywho at first I had decided that I did not want to purchase a liquid concealer but Im glad I did. Yeah, I really don't have much else to say other than I LOVE THIS CONCEALER!

Primer Police

Back again and I think I've found one!

There has been so much chatter in the cyber makeup world about Too Faced shadow insurance for a very long time now. But I had been reluctant to try it for no real reason at all. But on a recent trip to Sephora I saw that they had a shelf with 80 % off select items and what do I find? A small Too Faced makeup bag with shadow insurance in it as well as an eye shadow duo and one of their eye liners, so of course I couldn't turn it down because I got all that for only 10 dollars. When shadow insurance is put on they lid it goes on smoothly and doesn't leave the lid matte. So I was a little thrown off at first because I felt there would be nothing for the shadow to stick to. Silly me, even with my oily eye lids my shadows stay ALMOST all day. I do experience a little creasing around the 6th hour of having my makeup on but no fading. Over all I give this product an B+ so the search continues but for right now I'm happy with my shadow insurance.
