This blog contains A LOT of make-up selfies... SORRY (but how else should I show you, right?)
Hi Beauties,
I have had some serious laptop issues and I think it's time I replaced my trusty laptop and so today I am using my boyfriends computer as that is my only other option until I find a suitable replacement and magic some laptop money from somewhere!
Anyway, in this blog I wanted to show you some of my make-up looks that I have been loving!
Since doing my make-up course in London, I have really adapted and changed my make-up ways. I was very much stuck in a routine and it didn't veer off course very often.
I like to think that now everyday I wear make-up, I make a special attempt at making it different and trying something new. One of my students actually said to me on Friday that they loved how I always looked different every week, so that was nice and hopefully means that my attempts are working.
Make-up Look One: Since doing my course at DFMA, I have made a strong effort to improve my eyeliner and with the help of some new tools and plenty of practise- I am getting there. I still sometimes get one eyeliner that is ‘on fleek’ and the other one is more ‘oh f**k’ but it has definitely improved. Practise makes perfect, so they say! Always start by prepping the skin, it is so important to creating the perfect base.
