mAkeUp glamor mondays



Hey DoLls!! I've been super busy lately. Today I am going to teach you how to put on fake lashes!

1.) You will need Duo glue or if you are allergic to latex Revlon has lash glue that is latex free.

2.) You will need fake lashes. I recommend using Human hair that way they won't irritate your sin or eyes. I bought mine from the mall for $2.50 each.

3.) A tweezer.

4.) A brush.

5.) Mascara

6.) Eye Liner

STEPS
1.) I first take out the lashes from the plastic and wrap the lashes around your finger and bend them a bit so they are not stiff.

2.) Next take your glue and squeeze a little bit on to the plastic case of your lashes. Let the glue get tacky for 30 seconds.

3.) Take your brush and dip the end of it into the glue.

4.) Glide the glue on the flat curved lash line. Make sure to be cautious and not get it on the actual lashes.

5.) Gently place the lashes on top of your real lashes and take your tweezers to push the fake lashes into the lash line and to adjust as needed.

6.) When lashes are dry take mascara and blend the fake lashes with the real ones.

7.) Take a eye liner and line your eyelid to blend the lashes with your lash line.

All done and ready to be glamorous!

Please be careful if you get Semi- permanent eyelash extensions. Your lashes will fall out and you may have to wait two months before they grow back for some people even longer :( !

sPArkle sUrPriSe glamor Saturdays and Sundays- This will include reviews of products, contests, or any requests from my followers!!



Hello dOlLs!!
Todays post will be about how to become a real makeup artist!

Makeup gLaM sQuAd Artist Guide

1.) Accumulate enough makeup to practice and to apply makeup on clients. Make a makeup kit. I suggest getting samples from makeup counters.

2.) STUDY, STUDY, & STUDY: Study makeup charts ex.) http://www.google.com/search?q=makeup+face+charts&hl=en&sa=G&rlz=1G1GGLQ_ENUS317&prmd=ivns&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&ei=LPwwTpqYKabjiAKFi-WmBg&ved=0CB8QsAQ&biw=1123&bih=538

3.) GET INSPIRED: Checkout or study other makeup artists work on youtube, google or any other places online. Practice on yourself different looks and always document with your camera. That way you can see what you may need to work on.

4.) Choose people from different ages from each age group 16-19, 20-23, 24-29, 30-40, 50-70. Apply makeup on each client and take photos.

5.) CREATE Resume / Portfolio: with photos. I suggest getting photos printed at Kinko’s on gloss card stock for a more professional feel.

6.) Add photos to the end of your resume and make sure the photos are versatile so that the client can see your range in your makeup ability.

You may want to show a elegant makeup look, a natural look, dramatic look, theatrical look and etc. Make sure your photos are edited for any touchups that may be needed.

7.) Applying: If you are applying for a job at a makeup counter as for an application. Drop off your resume with application to all makeup counters. Introduce yourself, show that you can call peoples attention and get them to want to apply and buy the product. Your attire should be all in black to give a professional look and have your makeup done.

8.) Follow up: Make sure you keep following up with them every week and a half. Be persistent and show them that you want this job.

9.) Freelance: Mean while post your resume online or in the newspaper with a photo of your work. Make a list of pricing with your contact info.

For example: a.) Name: Gizelle

b.) Services: Makeup weddings, fashion shows, theater& etc.

c.) Pricing: $ 40 with lashes, wedding packages, & etc.

d.) Contact: email, phone number, & etc.

e.) Photos: Different photos of your work to show range.

10.) Networking: Make a blog, youtube channel, website, facebook, twitter with all your Photos and network with other makeup artists as much as you can to get your name out there.


Please let me know if you have any other questions!

wHiMsiCaL makeup glamor wednesday - Fantasy makeup (more colorful)




Hi dOls,
Today this blog is all about the Kim Kardashian eyeshadowLOOK!! Everyone loves the smokey eyes. And I decided to take it up a notch. I wanted to make it more dramatic and bold.

1.) Do your foundation, blush and contouring as normal.

2.) Use a base for your eyeshadow. Such as the paint pot by M.A.C. in the color painterly.

3.) Use Vanilla underneath the brow and in the inner corner with a 217 brush.

4.) Use M.A.C.'s charcoal brown all over the lid a little past your crease with a 217 brush.

5.) With a 224 brush lightly use NARS night breed (black) shadow in the outer crease and blending it inward towards your nose. (make sure to take your time to blend and don't use too much black)

6.) In the inner corners blend inward with a shimmery pigment such as M.A.C.'s pink bronze or tan with a 224 brush.

7.) Use the charcoal brown mixed with night breed underneath the eye. Start at the the middle of the eye and work it up until the outer corner of the eye. Blend up into the smokey part of the shadow to create a cat eye illusion.

8.) Use black liquid eyeliner from the inner corner to the outer part of the eye at an angle. Make sure you take your time lining the eye to prevent any mistakes.

9.) Now line the inner rim with a black pencil such as smolder. And set it with a black eyeshadow to prevent smudging.

10.) Next put some mascara such as plush lash or some fake lashes to make the look more complete!

Now you guys can go out on the town and feel just as gLaMoRoUs as Kim!

mAkeUp glamor mondays - Glamorous makeup to go out



Hey gLaMoRoUs girls!! OMG!! I'm sooo excited for this look. It's super cute and can be worn at work or at a gLaMoRoUs event.

Eyeshadow Application:

1.) Apply a eyeshadow base. I used the painterly paint pot. From the lid to the brow.

2.) First I used Brule (creme) in the inner corner, lid and underneath the brow bone with a 213 brush.

3.) Then apply Rule (orangey brown) above the crease. Make sure you blend this upward into the Brule with a 217 brush.

4.) Next apply Aquadisiac (turquoise) to the lid underneath the crease, but avoid the inner corner. Blend the Aquadisiac with Brule with a 224 brush.

5.) Then use a 224 brush in the crease with the color Saddle (brown) and blend inward.

6.) Use an angle brush with fix plus and charcoal brown eyeshadow to brush in your brows. Use a light hand to give a more hair like effect.

7.) And to complete the look use the lipstick Girl About Town (pinky purple)!

And that's how you become part of the gLaM sQuAd!!

Let me know if you have any other question dOLls!!

I'm doing a review on the most recent craze in the nail world. Nail bliss Bling Appliques!!
They are the new nail stickers that have crystals and awesome patterns.
These Bling Appliques are fast and easy to use.

1.) Apply any nail polish on your nails of your choice.

2.) Measure your nails and see which sticker best fits your nails. As soon as the nail polish dries apply the sticker to your nails and rub the sticker on the make sure it sticks.

3.) Cut the excess off and file the nails for a smoother finish.

4.) Apply a clear coat and your done!!

I have applied these to my finger and my toe nails they never chipped or came off. I had them on for 3 weeks. I received so many complements! These are absolute must.

wHiMsiCaL makeup glamor wednesday







Today our gLaMoRoUs dOlLs we will be learning how to achieve the famous Barbie Doll look.
Since she is one of the most famous dolls in the world I felt it was perfect for our first tutorial.

1.) Always exfoliate your face before doing your makeup
Suggested: The Body shop seaweed pore-cleansing Facial seaweed scrub $14.50
http://www.thebodyshop-usa.com/shop-by-line/seaweed-skin-care/seaweed-pore-cleansing-facial-exfoliator.aspx

2.) Moisturize your skin
Suggested: M.A.C's Complete comfort creme $32
http://www.maccosmetics.com/product/178/13268/Complete-Comfort-Creme/index.tmpl

3.) Applying foundation
Use your 187 brush by MAC with MAC Prolong wear Foundation. The brush should look like a blush brush but it has white ends to the tip. Dip the brush (just the tips) in the Pro long wear foundation and buff all over.

4.) Applying Powder
Use studio fix powder and buff in with preferably a Kabuki brush MAC 182 (looks like a very short blush brush) or you may also use MAC 150 which is an extra large blush brush. Pick up some powder with your brush and buff the powder in a circular motion until the whole face is covered.

5.) Applying Bronzer and Blush
Apply the bronzer first and use it to contour the cheek area. I used beach bronze by MAC. Suck in your cheeks an apply the bronzer in the hallows of your cheeks from your ear to your mouth in a diagonal angle. Next smile and on the apples of your cheeks apply a bright pink blush called Desire by NARS. This color is super intense so build up the color slowly on your cheeks. And blend into the bronzer for a more natural look.

6.) Base for eyeshadow
I used a paint pot by MAC in the color painterly. Apply this all over the lid all the way up to the brow. I use my finger to do so. Make sure it is completely blended.

7.) Applying eyeshadow
I started with applying the light creme color called Vanilla by MAC to the eyelid below the brow and 1/4 of the inner part of the lid with the MAC BRUSH 227SE.
Next apply the green color called Lucky by MICABELLA an eyeshadow from the lid up until I reached the crease with the MAC BRUSH 224.
Next I applied the the blush by NARS called Desire (same one as cheeks) above the crease and blended it up into the Vanilla with the MAC BRUSH 217.
Next I used the MAC BRUSH 219SE to make a cut crease with the MAC pigment called Grape and blended the crease as it reaches the inner part of my eye.

8.) Applying eyeliner
Next I used black track for my eyeliner with MAC 266SE Angled brush winged out at the end. You want to dip your brush into the gel liner and start making a line from the inner corner out to the end of your eyelid. As you reach the end of your eyelid you want to angle the brush towards the angle of the eyebrow and flick out. Take your time to do this part you may need a little practice and patience.

9.) Applying Mascara
Make sure to spin the wand in the tube and do not pump it. I used PLUSH LASH BY MAC. Place it at the top of the eyelashes and wiggle into the lashes as you spin the wand outwards. Do the same underneath the eyelashes until all of the eyelashes are covered. You can always add lashes if you'd like a more dramatic Barbie look.

10.) Applying lipstick
I first outlined the lips with NYX lipliner called PINKY. Then I filled in my lips with a Barbie Pink Lipstick by MAC called Chatter box and to top it off I used a clear lip plumper by Pout to make my lips more full an Barbie like.

And that's how you make your self in to a gLaMoRoUs BaRbIe dOlL!!

If you have any questions feel free to ask!
