Jennifer Lawrence at the Oscars


I was inspired by Jennifer Lawrence's look at the Oscars. It was not overtly done but quite glamorous. She seems to be quite simple and down to earth. I hope you guys enjoy my rendition of this look, it is great for evening parties, clubbing, or formal events and dances.

Mila Kunis Allure Mag 2013

This 60's cut crease look was inspired by Mila Kunis in the March 2013 issue of Allure. Its not an everyday wear look, but it is quite a classic look. If you choose to try out this look, dont feel like you need to use all the same colors. You can substitute the classic black with bright colors for a modern spring twist. You can use neutrals in the eyes and bold lips to spice it up. Remember, make up is fun, so have fun with it.

Grey's Anatomy-Meredith Grey

Hi internet, thank you for taking the time to check out my YouTube channel and my Blog. I chose to start a YouTube Channel because I love make up. I love the artistry behind it. It isn't just about an obsession with outside beauty, a misconception that distracts from the positive engagement of cosmetics, but about bringing the beauty we know we have inside to the surface. Sometimes life is hard and we need something to lighten the load. Sometimes sickness occurs and it challenges us to a point that it takes a toll on our physical appearance. Sometimes bad things happen and there is no need to let the world know about them just by looking at us.

Make up should be fun and it shouldn't be taken so seriously. The most beautiful thing you can wear is confidence but sometimes you need a little help. Recently, the new Bobbi Brown ads featuring Katie Holmes has a quote that perfectly summarizes this, "Confidence is everything, but a little makeup cant hurt."

For my first blog/ video tutorial, I chose a look from Grey's Anatomy. All the doctors wear very natural and glow-from-within looks. Hardly any eye make up, but always a subtle shimmer through the cheeks and pink lip gloss. This look is ideal for school or work or where ever you want to sport a nice 'no makeup makeup' look.
