Make-up...?

So one of my little hobbies is doing some make up. I will write more later but here are some picts of makeup I did today for my sis's prom.

Being successful at doing make-up can be achieved by anyone, as long as you follow some easy steps.
1. Be calm, and have confidence. - steady hands are a must. Anyone can be successful with practice and patients.
2. Be generous - Like artwork, applying make up is a step by step process. Always apply A LOT more than you would like with the finished product. Overdoing it is a good thing...because once you blend the colors will fade.
3. Be prepared - The Internet is a great resource to print photo's of ideas for color schemes and other ideas. It is always easier to follow an example.
4. Have the proper tools - Sometimes you might have to splurge a little go get the look you are going for. Thank the lord for urban decay. I feel they have the best products when it comes to eye shadows and primers. Their primers are a MUST for all makeup enthusiasts. They can make any brand of eyeshadow blend well and last longer. This primer also intensifies the colors! So worth 16 dollars! http://www.urbandecay.com/
 Also it is good to keep proper brushes on hand. Ecotools has nice, affordable, and are nature friendly products that are usually available at drug stores. http://www.ecotools.com/

Besides those products I used the following for the design above...
  • Lash stilettos liquid liner http://www.maybelline.com/
  • Loreal Telescopic original mascara
  • Urban decay FREELOVE, UZI, SIN, and GUNMETAL colored eye shadows
  • Urban decay ZERO colored glide-on eye pencil
I really enjoy all the above products and highly recommend all of them. I literally should work for Urban decay because i continuously promote their products lol. So worth the extra buck. If you like nudes and want to try out Urban Decay try the naked palette. I absolutely love it! Message me if you'd like any additional tips!
