Ben Nye Look

Hey guys,

It has been sooooo long since I've posted anything or updated my blog!!! AAAAAH. Well I am back and ready to keep posting different looks. Recently I got two makeup gigs!!! I did the bridal party for both weddings. I need to get the photos gathered and up here so you can see how they turned out :)

Right now I am posting a look I created last night using my Ben Nye Luminere palette. I love these colors and don't use this palette enough. I was very tired and kind of out of it so I didn't talk through the video. I just did the techniques and what not and showed you what I used. Hope you enjoy the video. Leave comments if you have any questions or would like to request any looks!

As always, thanks for watching!!!!

Mint Chocolate Chip look and 2nd day at Sephora!!!

Hey ladies! SO today was my second day at Sephora! :) YAAAAAY!!! It was really fun although my feet were killing me by the end of my shift! Not wearing heals to work again lol.... just flats I guess. I think I have finally found the retail job that fits my personality perfectly :) Sephora is like girl heaven.... so I enjoy being there thoroughly. Anyway this is my look of the day. I used my ben nye palette as well as a couple of my mac eyeshadows. This is my 2nd attempt at applying false eye lashes, so I know they look a little messed up on the closeups, but hey what can I say, I'm trying :) I am pleased with how it came out. Let me know what you think! Click the photos to see the look better and thanks for looking!

Ben Nye Look

Hey ladies,

I've been super busy so haven't been able to post for a little bit... my birthday was Monday (YAY!) and this whole week I've been working and then going places each night and getting home mega late, so I've been super tired... BUUUUTTT I ordered tons of makeup as a present to myself :) And one of the pallets I ordered was the Ben Nye shadows... first off they are GORGEOUS! and really pigmented... I love them.. I think it's funny that they are considered clown makeup, but hey whatever works, ya know... Anyway I haven't used it too much, but the first look I decided to try was a bright pink one. So here it is.... let me know what you think :)
