Gif Making for the Technologically Challenged

2012-11-24T11:17:00.002-08:00

Making a gif from pictures is simple, just upload the snapshots to a gif maker such as imgflig.com

This is one I made yesterday

Making a gif from a video requires more steps, I'm sure there is an easier way to do it but this is how I figured out how to do it for myself and it works

1-Find the video you want to make the gif from. Download to your computer with Keepvid

2-Open Windows Movie Maker or whatever software you can use to make videos. Upload the video to WMM.

3-Crop the part of the video you would like to make into a gif. Keep it short, less than 4 seconds. To crop you need to go to "edit" and set the "start" and "end" point.

4-Save your project

5-Sign up for Youtube if you don't have it. Upload your shortened video to Youtube.

6-Youtube will process the video. ****sidenote****Videos from WMM save as a .wmlp file. To create a gif you need to convert .wmlp to .mp4 files.

7-Go to "Video Manager" in Youtube and click on download to mp4 on the video you just uploaded. (You can only download 2 vids per hr on YT). Your video will now be downloaded as an .mp4 file.

8-Go to imgflip.com or a gif creator that can upload videos. Upload the .mp4 file and voila a gif!

So a short clip goes from this to

Lipstick Tag!

2012-01-12T09:27:00.000-08:00

1. How many lipsticks do you have?

Do I really have to count? I hoard lipsticks…I am going to guess and say around 30. I am going to count and see if I am realistic!

2. What was the first lipstick that you ever bought?

Hmm I never liked lipsticks when I was younger. I remember buying something from L’oreal when I was about 14. It was a metallic brownish red shade. I would kind of line my lips with that color and fill them in with another color. I don’t remember what kind of shade but I loved the combo lol. I remember buying a dark vampy red from Naturistics and returning it b/c I was too young to be wearing such dark colors. When my lipstick obsession began I first bought Mac’s Hold on creamsheen.

3. Which is your newest lipstick?

Maybelline’s pink please. I love their colorsensational lipsticks.

4. What is your favourite lipstick brand?

I have one high end and one drugstore:

Mac (the traditional ones, I don’t buy mattenes or kissable lipcolors and whatever else they come out with), Maybelline colorsensational line, Cover Girl trushine lipsticks and finally a tie between L’oreal and Revlon.

5. Favourite Pink? Hmm this is hard. I love Mac’s Viva Glam V. I used to hate it but it grew on me. And I also love Maybelline’s Born with it, more than I should because it creases.

6. Favourite Nude?

That’s hard b/c I have more nude lippies than I have fingers and toes. Hmm L’oreal Fairest Nude, Maybelline Warm me up (a rediscovered love, Idk how I wasn’t rocking this everyday, I loooovvvvee it) and Mac Freckletone and Viva Glam V (b/c nudes fall into nude pinks, nude peaches…)

7. Favourite Peach/Coral?

Mac dressmaker dressmaker, Revlon Siren, Milani Mandarina. Those hot oranges fall into coral right?

8. Favourite Red?

Idk, this is a hard one. I love the matte Wet n Wild red lipstick. Revlon Fire and Ice is also pretty nice.

9. Favourite Hot Pink?
Milani Rose Hip, Mac Gladiola.

10. Favourite Brown?

I don’t really do browns. The closest thing would have to be…L’oreal Aishwarya’s beige. Its really not beige at all.

11. Favourite Rosewood?

Hmm I don’t do roses.

12. Favourite Plum?

Mac Up the Amp, Revlon Berry Haute, Mac Violetta, L’oreal Mica. I love purples!

13. Other Favourite Lipsticks?

Mac Lavender Whip which I barely use b/c its limited edition.

NYX Pumpkin Pie.

NYX Chloe.

Mac Sweet Thing.

Mac Viva Glam 2

Mac Made to Order

Clinique Black Honey or shades like that

Cover girl true shine in Raspberry

14. Favourite Lipglosses?

I have so many Mac lipglasses but not necessarily a favorite shade. I love the Hard Candy plexiglass. Really, I am not particular to one brand.

I love coral orange lipsticks...

2011-09-11T02:18:00.000-07:00

Bright coral orange lipsticks are one of my recent favorites. Good thing the orange lips trend is extending from spring/summer into fall!

Wet n Wild Blazed NOTD

2011-09-11T02:12:00.000-07:00

Wet n Wild Blazed is a soft orange or coral orange, however you want to describe it. It is one of those colors that are in between shades. It reminded me of Mac Toxic Tale lipstick and Revlon siren. I love this color, it applied smoothly and dried fast. I used three coats but liked the jelly like appearance of two coats.

It leans on the pink in the above pictures. In real life it appears more orange.

Revlon Siren on lip, WNW Blazed on nails

Wet n Wild Enter A New Realm EOTD

2011-09-10T16:58:00.000-07:00

I just got my hands on all of the Wet n Wild Dreamweaver palettes, I will be posting EOTD with them everyday. I love Enter A New Realm, I think the color combination is great. I used the red on my lid, black in the crease and silver right above the crease with Stila Kitten as a highlight. I love the outcome.

Enter a New Realm, WNW Mellow Wine, Stila Kitten, Elf Gotta Glow, WNW 901B Think Pink

POUT APRICOT TOTTY REDISCOVERED

2011-09-01T17:52:00.000-07:00

This was literally rediscovered, it has been sitting in my stash since 2005 and something told me NOT to throw it away. I saw a Pout blush for $20 on a blog sale and it made me wonder what this would be worth...pretty much it is a cult item and I am holding onto it for prettiness' sake
I remember buying it at Sephora Times Square after having a major lemming for a peach blush. I saw a photo of Beyonce wearing peach blush and lips and peach blushes were few and far between in 2005.

CHAI TEA FRAPPE RECIPE

2011-08-19T06:03:00.000-07:00

I love Nordstroms chai tea and I thought I could recreate it after buying Big Train Vanilla Chai tea, but alas, I couldn't. So I made a cup of hot chai and decided to freeze and blend it. It was SO good.

Recipe
chai tea bag or powder
milk
hot water
whipped cream

Directions
Seep one bag of chai tea or use 1-2 tbsp of chai tea powder in cup
Pour about 1tbsp hot water in powder so it can melt, this will get rid of grittiness
Pour milk over the tea and freeze for 3-4 hrs. You don't want it frozen solid, but frozen enough that you can easily blend.
Blend
Top with whipped cream, cinnamon, nutmeg, chocolate, your choice
Enjoy!

Fred Christmas is crazy...entertainment for all ages???

Apple Dumplin!

2011-03-05T16:06:00.000-08:00

Sobe and I have a new obsession which stems from our Strawberry Shortcake obsession, its Apple Dumplin! Well, baby Apple Dumplin to be exact. She is too cute!

Its my new nickname for Sobe, too cute!

Sobe had a tail...

2011-03-05T15:43:00.001-08:00

Today I was in the kitchen at 8amish and Sobe ran in and said :Mommy, I have a tail!" She turned around, the girl had a belt hanging out of her undies. I was ROTFL! Unfortunately since I was laughing at her she ran away and took it out!

A change of direction...

2011-03-04T16:50:00.000-08:00

I read as many mom blogs as I do beauty blogs and I had a sudden change of heart in my blogging goals. I want this blog to be a sort of "gift" to my little one. I want to include more about her and just things she would like to read about one day. One thing that amazes me about Sobe is how creative she is. At her age I was pretty lame. I don't remember being 4 but I do remember being 5. I was never as involved as Sobe when it comes to crafts and creative play. I have always had quite an imagination and a semi gifted artist but Sobe is innovative. If she wants something she will create it. Yesterday she made a feather duster out of paper and a fork. She makes presents out of wipe cases and ties (the tie is a ribbon).She figures out certain things (like how to use her Play doh cake maker) faster than I do. I hope her creativity is nurtured through her childhood, teens and adulthood. I am excited to know what my child will choose to do with her life.

Sobe has qualities similar to the six people she is closest too. She is a temperamental, loves makeup, somewhat demanding, artistic, and loves to read. These are qualities I share with her. She has a big heart and is very giving like her uncle who is also a Scorpio. She enjoys the same activities as her other uncle. She loves to jam out to Indian music like her grandfather. She loves to cook, clean, and do crafty things like her grandmother. She acts silly like her father and shares his love of Simpsons, Spongebob, Futurama, et cetera. Do your children share traits of those they are closest to?

So much for a Mac ban...

2011-02-19T08:40:00.000-08:00

I tried to refrain from purchasing Mac, especially anything from the Wonder Woman collection...but
Athena's kiss is soooo pretty with its melange of glitter, purple and pink!

The MSF's are soooo big!

Mighty Aphrodite is a sherbet colored blush and I can't resist anything that reminds me of ice cream!

That being said I refrained until yesterday and today to place orders, hopefully I don't get an out of stock message from Nordstroms

OPI Got a Date To-Knight! and China Glaze Mrs. Claus NOTD

2011-01-19T19:03:00.000-08:00

I felt like painting my nails pink (probably because of all the Valentine's day paraphernalia popping up everywhere) so I used my go to pink which is OPI Got a Date To-Knight! I used about 3 coats and topped it off with some Seche. I decided to jazz up my nails a little with Mrs. Claus on my ring fingers, which I have never used before. It is a very cute pink glitter polish.

I used the Elf Everyday Beauty encyclopedia for this look. It is washed out as I only managed to get one quick snapshot. My eyeliner is Jordana's Fabuliner in black and my mascara is Mac's Zoomlash in black.
