Learning Beauty Week 2- Practicing Makeup

I was excited to begin my next 2 sessions since here was my chance to see what I could do. Our tutor told us to go home and practice after week one and this was what I did. Actually I did a bit more in that I re-read my notes, reorganized my makeup and setup a station a home for my practice. It’s a good thing there are 4 other ladies at home to be my models. But of course I model for myself too!

For me the hardest part is doing the liquid eyeliner. I so need more practice here!

Session 3: This was my practice session where I got to makeover my beauty partner. I used similar colours like I used on myself above and it turned out pretty well. Too bad I don’t have pictures to show off my work L

Session 4: This was our time to do makeup on ourselves to showcase for our tutor. We were all given what colours to wear by her and we were to make it suitable for an evening out. So yes I was a bit nervous to work with blue eyeshadows since I am usually a neutral eye kinda girl but it turned out great!

For the nighttime you want to go bold and bright as possible. With such strong colours you may want to skip the blush though. When I was done she showed me how to make the eyes pop with a bright colour underneath. Even though this is way too much makeup than I am used to, I really loved it.

Looking forward to week 3!

Revlon Sculpting Blush Palette in Pink

I have never been so disappointed in a Revlon product before… until now! Maybe I chose the wrong colour for my skin-tone but there are so many other things about this palette that makes me think I should have bought some more lip butters instead. Let’s start with what I do love about the palette. It’s simple black compact that has the same sleek look as the other Revlon photo-ready items. I find a highlighter, contour shade and blush in one palette is a great idea too. Having more blush colour in terms of quantity with smaller sections for the highlighter and contour makes perfect sense since I will use more of the blush anyway. The colours as they appear in the pan look perfectly coordinated to work with each other. You get a small brush with soft bristles in your kit to ensure you can just pop this in your bag and you’re off.

Marble Hearts: BCD Nail Art Challenge (Day 13)

Today's challenge utilizes the technique of dry water marbling to create your pattern. I'm doing a twist of it but doing a needle drag i.e using a needle or any fine point for just a smidgen of swirl to the colours used.
