I am an aspiring makeup artist ready to share my knowledge with the world and to learn as much as possible from others with similar interests. I am one of the sweetest people you could meet so please introduce yourself :)
Hello lovelies!
I am SO excited about this makeup tutorial!! This has got to be my favorite one yet. I love doing fun and dramatic looks. Because I mostly do makeup for TV shows or weddings, I never really get to play around with colors and that is why I adore Halloween! It's great practice and SO much fun!
Watch this to learn how to do it on yourself! (:
Here are some HD Photos of the look! (:
Here is the picture of I got my inspiration from:
He was one of three winners who won the Illamasqua contest. I think that the look is very "joker-esque" bahahaha.
Anyways, I hope you all have an amazing halloween and can make use of this look! (:

One of the most iconic and distinct looks for halloween. Today I am bringing you a Cleopatra makeup tutorial. I am very fond of the outcome. I think that it is very glittery and glamorous but not too over the top for those of you who don't want to scare anyone away! This look can definitely be toned down by just applying regular eyeliner to the water like rather than the golden liquid eyeliner. I also think that if you wanted to take this look an extra step, adding a brown lip liner and blending it in into the gold lips would make this look a bit more sophisticated and well put together. With a black wig and a gold dress, you are set to head out for a Halloween party, trick-or-treating with your kids, or simply watching scary movies and handing candy out to all the dressed up children. I love Halloween soooo much! It is one of my favorite holidays...probably because I like to dress up and just have an excuse to go crazy with my makeup. Anyways, I hope you really enjoy this look.

I think that if you were to add a wig and the dress this look would be so adorable! You don't even have to go get an expensive costume because the makeup is so extravagent! Anyways, have a wonderful day guys (:
For the past month, as many of you know, I have been working with QVC network at L.A Live as the hair and makeup artist for the models. Let me tell you, I have had more than a wonderful time and am so sad that it is over. All of the dreadful two to three hour drives there and back were definitely worth it. I gained some knowledge about what it is like to work on a live TV show and more importantly gained some amazing new friends. In a way I am relieved to have a little more free time (AKA study time) but I will definitely keep a space in my heart for so many of the wonderful people I have met along the way! Here are some of the gorgeous models I have had the opportunity to work with. I did the makeup for all of these girls over the span of the nine dates I worked.
Ambreal: Some of you may recognize her from America's Next Top Model! Me and her have become so close now!
Cora: My mom says she looks Sandra Bullock! Bahaha
Emily:
Brittany:
Martha:
Casey
Heather
Kate
Nora
I do hope QVC comes back because I truly enjoyed my time with the crew, the hosts, and the models. Everyone was so wonderful. If you have any questions please feel free to message me or leave a comment down below.
Hello lovelies :)
I wanted to write a quick bloggie giving you all a sneak peak of some videos I will be making very soon! First, I have recorded a full review of Eve Pearl cosmetics. I will be reviewing/swatching the blushes, lipsticks, and of course, the salmon concealers! Also, I have been in the process of making a review for the gosmile teeth whitening kit!The process takes twenty days and I am almost half way through with it. When I finish the process and get my final synopsis I will be able to post the full review!
Sneak Peek photos for your viewing pleasure!
Anyways, I must go because I am typing this from my morning class.
