Soft Blue Smoky Eyes by Krys


Before I got into doing makeup fully for myself I always had to rely on the skills of my family and friends. My good friend Krystal who I grew up with did this look for me to go to another good friend’s wedding. She is working towards being a true makeup artist and making a career out of makeup. I certainly don’t remember everything she used but her skills were amazing enough to totally transform me so much that I am literally glowing in these pictures.
So we trinis love to be matchy matchy, it’s just our thing right? She asked for the colour of my dress to ensure she had some eyeshadows to work with. All I needed to bring was my foundation. Using a damp beauty blender my Revlon Colorstay foundation in Toast was applied followed by Revlon powder in medium deep with a powder brush. Eyeshadows from Sacha trios were used and just some liquid eyeliner and mascara. Some light pink blush and the lips were filled in with Kleancolor waterproof  lipliner pencil in Natural with clear gloss on top to finish the look.
My vampire face!


So the moral of this story is that to know if you have some skills means you need to have a happy client in the end just like I was. She didn’t use any expensive brands just simple product and tools working her skills for this gorgeous look. Of course she did invest her time in practicing, watching youtube videos and some makeup courses to come to this point. I will be following in her footsteps soon hopefully.

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.  In the sunlight Now here is where it all goes downhill like Jack and Jill with their pail of water. Let’s start with the swatches which made me think twic

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.
