My Way: Atelier Versace Spring 2013 Eye Makeup






wwd.com



Hello you blogders! Today I am going to show you how to recreate this amazing smokey eye. Instead of being just a plain ol' smokey eye, the makeup artists took it to a new level, by adding a couple of simple details to it. As you can see in the photo, the addition of two foil shapes, possibly applied by using lash glue, are strategically placed, and balance out the smokey eye quite nicely. Well, let's begin!

My Lipgloss Trick

Hello everyone! How are you today? I can finally post pictures for tutorials and reviews, as I had a little virus scare on my computer, and was wary about uploading any photos. Now that it's over, I want to share this little trick with you guys. I was surprised that other beauty bloggers knew about this, as I made it up in middle school, but I realized that people have probably been using this way before my time.

This trick works with any type of lipgloss. I find that it works for every type of application as well, whether it is a doe-foot applicator or even a clean finger. This trick will make your lips appear smoother, a little bit plumper, as well as give it a cool 3-D effect.

In order for this to work properly, make sure your lips are properly exfoliated and moisturized. I know that the "traditional way" of applying lipgloss is to just slather it on and press your lips together, but I think it ends up looking messy. Also, the lipgloss would settle into the lines of the lips, making its look odd.

The next step is to apply the lipgloss in downward strokes, rather than horizontally on your lips. In an other way of putting this, start with your choice of applicator at the top portion of one of the lips, and just aplly it in a downwards motion,and prepeat on the other lip.

That's it! That's how easy my "secret" lipgloss trick is! You know have something new to try out, especially if your not one for lip plumpers or injections (ouchie).

Thank you for reading!

Well, hello there free time, we meet again...

 


Hello my wondercats! How are you doing today? I am finally back, after a month of studying for diploma exams, and boy, that was a a life-sucker. It was hard for me to not blog all month, as I had so my reviews and tutorials to share with you!I thought that this slightly cheesy tumblr photo fit the bill just right. On a positive note, winter in Canada is almost over! The weather has been crazy in my town, we had over 5 feet of snow in some areas! However, this used to be the norm way back in the day, during a few winter seasons. For those of you that also finished your diplomas, I congratulate you for enduring the mind-numbing torture of doing all of those numerical response questions and picking the right answer from a question with 3 of the exact same options. I only have two this coming semester, so not a lot of cutbacks in free time.

Now that I have a ton of free time, this is the perfect way to introduce new ideas for the blog , which I am excited for. Before I sign off, I wanted to thank you for sticking around, though there have been no posts for a looong time!



Happy Thursday!

^_^
