Cut crease eyeshadow

 This is the eye for the season everyone is wearing it no matter the type of eyelid you have everyone is rocking Cut crease eyeshadow , hooded eyes or almond eye it is going with the flow, and  it is sure gorgeous  I have rocked it and am still loving it, I saw this video on youtube  and am going to use the pictures to explain the simplest steps on how to rock your cut crease eyeshadow.  First of all am going to list all the things you need on your desk.

v  Eyeshadow pallete

v  Gel/liquid liner

v  Eyeshadow brush

v  Eye primer

v  Blending brush                                                                                                                                                                                                         

Step 1-line the crease of the eye with black gel liner, I prefer gel liner because it won’t smudge and it dries fast.

Step 2- blend the lined crease upwards, while applying a light brown eyeshadow on it to make the eyes look bigger 

Step 3-highlighten the brow.

Step 4- apply the eyeshadow under the crease

Step 5-line the eyes.

This is the easiest step have seen so far and very easy to do. Let me know how it goes when you try at home. Leave your comments on the comment box. pin- 2bb5d2ee 

Cocoa body scrub   

I am sure we've all been hearing about cocoa body scrub and some call it chocolate body  scrub but either ways have fallen in love with this scrub so much I just love the way it makes my skin glow after sing it am dark skinned, and am sure my dark skinned sisters can tell you how hard it is to find something that will work for your skin. I have invested so much money in cocoa scrubs from recommendations from people and because of my skin type. I love the way some of them make me feel but have never really gotten the glow I wanted after so much research online and from other products I decided to make mine and trust me when I say it was amazing. I loved the finish. I am going to share my recipe with you all especially for people with dry skin. Note it can be used by both sex, so with that out of the way here is my recipe.

Ingredients.

Cocoa powder

Raw sugar

Olive oil

Vanilla extract

Ginger extract

Instructions.                                                                   

Mix the sugar and the cocoa powder together

Add honey and olive oil to the mixture

Mix the mixture with the vanilla extract

Mix to form a fine paste

Finally add the ginger and mix a little 

  

I really hope my cocoa scrub works for you too. Let me know how it goes on the comment box. Later  sisters.  You can contact me on 0800782462 pin-2bb5d2ee 

Let’s smoke it up.

Everyone loves Smokey eyes. I am not quite sure if it’s the glam or attention or the cat calls that we are all so much in love with but have realized we all love Smokey eyes for different reasons. I love Smokey eyes for the attention and you would never catch me with a smoked up eye in the afternoon, I would always wear it in d evening. It just works better for me in the evening maybe am over sensitive about it because of my color or maybe it is just my mentality who knows. I am not one to believe that Smokey eye are better on people with light skin I just believe ladies with light complexion get away with a lot of makeup mistakes due to the color of their skins. I believe everyone no matter the color or race will look flawless with a well done Smokey eye.

   Now to the point, ladies black isn’t d only color you can use for a Smokey eye you can use any dark color even red, yes I said it red!! Now be calm you can’t use red alone but you can use red missed with another dark color. Now am not saying mix red with dark blue.  You ve got to use a color that will blend with the red and matt red only please.. am going to write the steps needed for Smokey eyes and the tools needed to get this look.

Makeup Tools

v  Blending brush

v  Dark eye shadow pallete

v  Light eye shadow (optional)

v  Nude or light pink lipstick

v  Lip gloss

v  Eye shadow brush                                          

v  False lashes

How to get the perfect Smokey eye 

Apply the light color as the base all ova the eyelid with the eye shadow brush.

Apply the dark color from the corner of your eye to d inside getting lighter as you blend it in, you can either apply it all over the eyelid or leave a little at the corners of your eyes. I love leaving a little.

Apply you liner and false lashes to give you the perfect eyes.

Line underneath the eye I love lining it black but you could use any color of your choice.

 Apply a nude preferably or light pink lipstick.

Vouloir, you ve got the perfect Smokey eye. I always prefer light lips with a loud eye. Loud eye and loud lips well girl you are the new queen of the circus. Bye ladies

makeup do's and dont's

hello beauties, this is a topic have been dying to talk about for a very very long time. Its good to have fun with makeup but this should been done at the corner of your bedroom, I don;t believe in experimental makeup, there are rules for a reason, this rules are to guide us. There are so many videos online now and so many blogs and search engines to guide you and teach you makeup from even the convenience of your bedroom, so why do you go wrong with makeup!!!!. I am going to make top 5 list of my makeup do's and don'ts
      DO,S
1. Use mascara : It brings out your gorgeous beautiful eyes, it enhances and elongate your eyelashes making       you eyes look bigger. the more you apply you mascara the darker and longer your eyelashes look but           remember too much of everything is not good.
2. brushes: do use original set of makeup brushes, i would advice bobbi brown its good and easier to handle      for learners.
3. Apply powder: always apply powder, no matter the matt look you foundation gives you always apply           powder, most people guilty of this are people who use marykay foundation. t gives you such a dry and           smooth look and you think why waste my powder? but when it all comes down to it, and the sun come         out trust me you wont like the way you will look.
4. Blush: Am also going to also put this in my don'ts so be patient and wait for it. there is a thin line between       sane and insane makeup when it comes to blush. It can make your makeup pop so much especially if you     are black and you apply a light colour t can make your makeup so beautiful my best blush sleek sheen           cover. and when u apply a stupid color and you dont blend it well u might look like the clown  in a circus.
5. lip liner: you see models on magazine covers and you fall and love with there lips, that's because the lips
   are liner, never line your lips with black,  always go for the color of the lipstick or the color of your lips or      my best presently *wink* dark purple..

DON'TS 
1. Blush: blush can make you look like a Disney princess when you apply the right color and blend it well but    it can also make you look like a clown, so hands down sister on those lovely blush brush of yours and            wait till you learn how to apply it before you do so.
2. foundation: always use your right color of foundation, gone are the days wen there test foundation on you       hands cause in case you don't know your hand is always lighter than your face, so tell them to test it by the    side of your face, on your cheeks or below your jaw line. secondly, blend your foundation in well with your    foundation brushes. the best method to use in blending your foundation is the hair line method, by blending    your foundation into your hairline.
3. Do not sleep with your makeup on: horrible habit most women are guilty of, even if you are too tired to         wash your face before you sleep use a wipe, when you sleep its time for your skin to rebuild and relax, t       cant do this under several layers of chemicals called makeup.
4.eyebrows: do not ignore you eyebrows you don't how to draw them then learn or buy an eyebrow filler.        they are the most important feature of makeup and can make your face look so beautiful when done              correctly.
5. do not forget to blend your contour: unless you are doing a fashion or runway look i see no reason for you not to blend your contouring,  get a big fluffy brush and spend 5 mins blending it together without rubbing your foundation  all in.
  that was worth my time, so i hope you read and  go through it and leave your comments cause i wll get back to you. see you soon beauties and till then stay FLAWLESS!!!

Important things to know about makeup

Last week i had a long talk with one of my friends and he was telling me how much makeup decisive guys and its like they have done plastic surgery. Ladies makeup is not going to change you from been who you are. Makeup is to enhance your beauty"when done the right way" and help you cover spots, marks, acnes you don't want to be seen. It wont turn you from been dark to been fair. So when you  hold your mirror  and your brushes smile at yourself and think of how beautiful you are and not how much you want to be like someone else.
       There  are so many makeup brands we have Mac, Marykay, Iman, Tara, Bmpro and so many more. you cant use all these product. in makeup its good to stick to a product that  works for you and do not go for a brand cos it is expensive or as name or is used by most of your friends. you can use a 6k powder and react to it and use 1k powder and look flawless. the fact that i use a powder and look gorgeous doesn't  mean you will use it and look  the same, you might even get a reaction. when you use a product and you get irritations its either you bought the fake which happens most times or a substance in the product doesn't work for your skin. you have to carefully select a product that is good for u with the help of a qualified makeup artist. Ladies you don't have to use the same brand for everything anything that works for you should go e.g you can use a Marykay foundation and a Tara powder.  
      BRUSHES!!! i love my brushes. brushes are very expensive and you can say you will improvise or use inferior brushes  but trust me brushes go a long way. like i ask what is a painter without brushes? what is a tailor without needle and thread. you have to get original brushes . YES there are expensive but i consider my brushes as my investment with the right set of brushes you would go a long way. it will be easier to learn and easier to use. so please ladies invest in a set of brushes today and thank me later *wink*
 let me know what you think bye ladies!!
