Mother's Day Hair and Makeup Tutorial

I am vlogging once again!

I had fun the first time and so I thought 

I would try it again.

Check out my Mother's Day

hair and makeup tutorial!

Still getting used to recording my voice without
reading a script - soooo forgive my ums and my
stuttering.

Let me know what you think about my second youtube video!

My First Makeup Video

Vlogging...

Not something I normally do,

but one of my final projects

this semester for school

was to create an instructional video.

This was something I had always wanted to

try doing, but was wayyyy too lazy to actually

do.

I had to pretend I was an instructor and

create a 2-3 minute long instructional

video on anything I wanted.

So, of course, I chose makeup :D

I decided to teach how to 

do a very simple every day

make up look (I mean it had to be

2-3 minutes long).

So I didn't even put eyeliner on!

I recorded and edited this video with

Imovie on my macbook pro.

It's not amazing, but I am pretty impressed

with how it turned out.

*SPOILER ALERT*

I received full credit for this post 

and the instructor loved it :D

Let me know what you think!

Should I be doing more of this 

"vlogging"?

Or should I just stick to blogging?

(I know, that is just a wonderful pic...)

Primed for Primer

Where have I been?

A little late to the primer game apparently.

I could not figure out why my 

makeup and eye makeup 

were not staying all day long

while I was in the comfort

of my air conditioned cube!

Girllll you need some primer!

LACK OF PRIMER!

Who would have thought that one product could

make such a difference?

Well, really two products for me...

I have fallen for, and use every day:

- Eye primer

- Face primer

Face primer? Is that what its called?

Anyways...

These are my RIDE OR DIE.

I have gulped down the kool-aide and

I will NOT be looking back.

What is a primer you ask?

I asked google.

If you want your eye makeup to stay all day 

Buy this:

Too Faced Shadow Insurance

Money Shot

I bought it hoping it would make my

eye shadow last more then a mere

two hours in the Florida heat,

and it did me one better...

My eye makeup and eyeliner

last through work, through workout,

and even sometimes through my shower.

I have to actually use makeup remover to get

it off.
(Note* I do not have to scrub to get it off,

it comes off quite easily once I use some makeup remover)

The other primer I use is a base
for my foundation.

At the moment I am using
Smashbox Photo Finish
Foundation Primer Light.

This is the travel size.

It really has helped my foundation
stay on longer, but I think I want
to play the field a little.

I've heard great things about Make Up For Ever
Step 1 Skin Equalizer Primer
Color Mattifying Primer - For Oily Skin

I've also been DYING to try the
BECCA Backlight Priming Filter.

This is supposed to give a more dewy finish - and my
face is already pretty dewy, but I love
everything BECCA and have
heard great things about this primer too.

Those will be the next ones I try, so I'll be sure
to give updates :D

In case you didn't know...
