M.i.A. [Missing in Action]

I have been for a minute! LOL
With the Holidays, trying to get back in school, and the girls being sick, I've been to busy to anything other then glance at the computer... =]
Now that everything has slowed down, I'm ready to focus a little more on the things that I want to do!
It's a New year, and i'm hell bent on achieving a new attitude for it!


Hope Everyone had wonderful Holidays.♥

Now I'm looking forward to tax time so I can get some better makeup!!!!!!

It wasn't as hard as I thought it would be, but I definitely need more practice...[[AND BETTER MAKEUP!!]] [Probably a better camera too lol =D]]
...But hey, I tried. =]

The Smokey Eye




...And a purple version. ; ]



All created using:

[L.A. Colors black eyeliner && Mascara,both of which i got at the dollarstore...]
[Max Factor Silk Perfection Liquid to Powder in cool bronze]
[Covergirl Outlast pressed powder in translucent honey]
[Fantasea cosmetics eyeshadow and lip color which are standard issue at the cosmetology school i attend.]

**Ok, i HATE all my makeup at the moment. and the camera too, tho it's not mine. It's raggedy! =p LOL
Anyway, why do i hae the cheap makeup if i hate it you ask? Well I used to have a very nice makeup box, with my good brushes and all in it.... But, some hateful person stole it. Along with my lovely camera, an xbox and a few other things, i might add. =/ My Nikon. *Sigh* I miss it...

And being a mother of two, trying to get through school, I can't afford to replace anything yet. =/
oh well, i don't have too mcuh longer in school, and i'll be making big bucks =]

[WELCOME] - [A NATURAL LOOK]

My first post!! =]

Okay, well if you're reading this, Welcome!!
<3

I'm a cosmetology student, and recently, I became more interested in the make up side of my profession.
At the cosmetology school I attend they don't really teach much about makeup, they mainly focus on hair. So after a few pointers and a through search of the internet,I decided to teach myself the makeup game.

I've always loved it anyway, I remember one Christmas I got a makeup kit, with all the brushes, colors, polishes and lip glosses a kid could want! Lol! I made my little sister sit and have a makeover like every other day!! =D

Anyway, my mother never really wore makeup... and when she did, it was always subtle and natural, so that's how my makeup has always looked! Like This:

April 2007

*My mother's cardinal makeup Rule: "Lip gloss and a little mascara ALWAYS."

Well, I've become obsessed with the popular "Dramatic look" of the smoky eye and other looks! Like these:



So, welcome to my journey.... =]
