     I promised to share after I attended the first makeup class with Erin Wooldridge, professional makeup artist. The class was approximately five hours long, small student size (5 today), and was in an intimate and wonderful setting, Erin's awesome and inspiring studio.  We were given a printed overview she had put together of the basics of laying down foundation,

Hey Everyone, So I know I vanished with no warning. My apologies! I'm alive! I started not only working again, but class the very same week. And math class at that. My worst subject. Plain ick. Things are hectic, with work, school, homework, laundry, and every other detail in between, so my blog went neglected. I would like to find a reasonable rate at which to post, one that is relaxing and

With my hectic schedule of figuring out how to be a productive new mom in addition to daily laundering, cooking, and cleaning my beauty time has been virtually cut to sloppily smearing on some eyeliner in my car at stop signs. With my personal time cut to an all time low, I have discovered a way to integrate some self care with a pleasurable and quick activity; painting and decorating my

  I don't care who you are, waking up with an unsightly blemish can ruin your day. There are so many products on the market that are supposed to help get rid of zits that Zapzyt was just another one on the list for me to tackle and wait for results. Without needing to go into the nitty gritty details, I'll break down the pros and cons of this particular treatment.   Pros: 1) If

I ordered some samples from a company called Premium Minerals. A "Hello! Sampler Pack" includes five different little baggies of various minerals, you choose the shades. You can test this out for free, you just have to spend $3.61 on shipping. I figured it was worth a try, and there were enough different tones where I felt I might be able to land my color. 10 grams of the mineral foundation

 Last night our family friend and babysitter came over for some shots and nachos and babysitting and....makeup! I know, what a weird combo, right? Well we are weirdos, what can I say. Fun is a requirement no matter what I am doing, so that's what will be had! And I demand no less, lol. Anyhow, we took our shots and at some point, I asked her if she had anywhere to go later, because if she

I put these colors together to go with a specific dress. I like my makeup and outfit to coordinate, so some days I dress for to match my face, while other days I do my face and find clothes to match! We were out camping in Lotus, California, and being me, I went ahead and lugged my two filled-to-the-brim train cases of goods with me. I had my portable mirror and set out to work in the sunlight.

Maybelliene Eye Studio Eyeliner (blackest black) I love wearing eyeliner and wear it everyday if time allows. My two staples in life are eyeliner and lip gloss. However, for some reason, my eyelids run hot. almost every stick eyeliner I purchase ends up smearing and by the end of the day I look like a sleep-deprived raccoon. This has forced me to switch over to things like liquid

 A look I did on my girlfriend recently. I used a copper color on the lids and an iridescent shine powder under the brows. I lined her lower lashes with a blue. I would normally not think to use these colors together on myself, but her rich, deep brown eyes were my inspiration. When you apply makeup on other people, you really get to create things you wouldn't normally come up. New palettes

I love Grocery Outlet! I found two Revlon ColorStay Overtime shades for $1.99 each, so I thought I would give it a try. I later checked at Kmart to make sure I was not reviewing something that discontinued, and I was able to find both colors still on the market. For 9 something a piece!

I really like this Maybelline limited edition palette. I decided to try it out specifically because I have the worst time trying to find a yellow that's NOT gold in the drugstores. I walked up and down the aisles carefully scanning every eyeshadow pot, trio and palette. Then did the same in three other stores. Nothing. I've only found decent yellows by shopping Indie brands. Anyhow, I needed a
