Dreams can come true!!!

WoW! So it's been awhile since I have last been on my blog, How I have missed thee lol. But really so many things have changed in my life and honestly I must say it was all for the good! My make up career has been booming and honestly its all to the Big Man Upstairs because with out him none of the opportunities that have come my way would have been with out him! However, I am here to say that I am finally able to say that I am following my dream and when you dream they can become reality. So for all the Barbs and Kenny's out there who feel like they can't amount to anyhing, you need a new frame of mind and a new crowd to center yourself around. I'm not playing!! But I am here to say that some changes will probably be happening to my blog but no worries I still think I am going to be on here...but now more than ever....So i just wanted to stop in and show my face again and tell a little about where I am in my life at the moment and to say that anything that you dream is possible.

BH Cosmetic Is Hypnotizing With An Array Of High Pigmented Colors!!

It's finally here!! I have just received my 120 eyeshadow palettes from BH cosmetics!! I have been hearing so much about BH cosmetics 120 eyeshadow palettes and how pigmented they are, that  I had to see for myself. I went to Bhcosmetics.com and got this great deal. I got the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd addition of the 120 eyeshadows palette kit,  plus there 10pc deluxe make up brush set, and there 66 color palette lip gloss kit!! For a great steal. I recommend this website to anyone who is either in love with make up or who is trying to build there make up collection with high pigmented colors.

I am OBSESSED with eyeshadows and to get all these colors just gets me so excited!! I'm like a kid in a candy store. This product is safe and won't irritate your eyes or skin. So enough with all the chit chat, check it out for yourself www.BHcosmetics.com

Get Full Coverage In The Simplest Way!!

If your looking for a foundation that covers and won't clog your pores and give you nasty break outs, then check out Maybelline's Dream Liquid Mousse. This formula gives an air brush look, its dermatologist tested, non-comedogenic ( so it won't clog your pores) caters to those with sensitive skin, and is good for all skin types.

Cover Girl Aqua Smoothers Tinted Moisturizer is AMAZING!!! This tinted moisturizer is sheer; so it gives you a natural look as if you have nothing on. Because this tinted moisturizer is sheer it might not give full coverage to all skin types depending on if there's acne scars, zits, or any other blemishes to the skin; so added foundation may be needed. But if your just looking for something light with a little color and that moisturizes, then this is for you!!

I use the CG Aqua Smoothers Tinted moisturizer along with the Maybelline Dream Liquid Mousse for the days I'm just kind of keeping it simple and I get complete coverage!! I love both of these items because they don't clog your pores and that's a #1 keeper in my book. If you  haven't checked these items out see for yourself. Hope you Enjoyed!!!

KISSABLE LIPS: EVERY GUY SHOULD EXPERIENCE

Don't you hate when your lips get all dried and cracked? Ladies you know what I am talking about, you go to put on some lip balm but hours later you find yourself back with the same ole dried up cracked lips! Well I have found a solution in "Cosmos Sexiest Secrets Book" to pamper those lips and polish them back to new, so any guy would want to experience those sexy moist voluptuous lips. Below you will find the steps to getting those lips back from missable to kissable. Enjoy.

1. Apply lip balm to the entire lip.
2. Take your fingers and rub in the balm for 30 seconds ( This helps stimulate the blood vessels).
3. Run a tooth brush or dry cloth over your mouth to remove all of the dead skin cells ( a cool trick is do this while your in the shower because the steam will help with removing the dead skin quicker).
4. After you have completed steps 1-3 your finished and your lips are polished!!!

BTW: *If your on the go SUGAR works just as well*

Super Size Your Eyes

I was reading the new issue of cosmopolitan and ran across a make up look i couldn't pass up! This article talked about Super Sizing Your Eyes. Believe me if your a chic that doesn't like to wear a whole lot of make up but still like to look flirty, this is the look for you.

What you will need:

Dark brown eyeliner pencil or dark brown eyeshadow
 light gold eyeshadow
 silver metallic eyeliner pencil or eyeshadow
white eyeliner pencil or eyeshadow

Steps:

1. Take your brush and take the gold eyeshadow and dust it all over your lid to your eyebrow.
2. Take your dark brown eyeliner or eyeshadow and line the lash line; bring the brown out into a wing at the outer corner of the eyelid.
3. Take the silver metallic eyeliner and line just the inner corners of the eye (top and bottom).
4. Then take your white eyeliner or pencil and line the bottom of the lash line. This makes your eye look bigger.
5. Apply mascara to top lashes.

This is a great daytime look and is effortless. Get your brushes ladies and let them eyes flirt!!!

Hope you enjoyed :)

Shaping Eyebrows And Arching Them

Some instructions to those who may have to thin or to thick of an eyebrow:

If you have a tiny face thick eyebrows can be overwhelming; Also those with a low brow bone shouldn't go to thick. At the end of the day you want to open your eyes, so if there isn't enough space between the brow and the lash; make the eyebrows thinner and more arched.

If you have a higher brow bone then thicker eyebrows is a great look to have with a defined wide arch. DON'T over TEASE!! just play with shape of the brow, but if you do mess up, just allow hair growth and try again.

If you don't have full eyebrows and have a few gaping spaces in your brow... pencil and powder are great savers. While using pencil or powder on the brow, a brow gel is a great staple to have in keeping the color on the brow in place and from smudging.

When it comes to the color of your eyebrow when matching it to your hair color, remember if your brunette keep the eyebrow one shade lighter and if your blonde keep your shade one shade darker.

Hope you enjoyed!!!
