Hello, Beauties! So the best event of the year has come and gone. You know the event, Ulta's 21 Days of Beauty. Every time this event happens I pour over the deals and decide on the best ones, the ones I want to try out, and the ones I can't go without. Now, I cannot afford to buy everything I want, I mean teachers make next to nothing. I always save up for this event though, and I mean that. I will not buy most things I drool over throughout the year, because I know Ulta will have this event, and I will want the deals more than I want a temporary item. I know! I have some powerful willpower! So what did I get this year?

Hello, beauties!! Tonight was my husband’s and my date night! I recorded a video, sped up to 800%, of me doing my makeup. What is not at the beginning of the video is me putting my Mac Paint Pot in Latin low all over my eyelids. I chose to do some heavy makeup for this date night.

I started with my eyes because I have been more interested in the sharp eye. What I mean by this is that I wanted my eyeshadow to begin at a sharp point, and not slowly fade in. I will be trying this more for my date night makeup, but not my go to work makeup looks.   Links to youtube. No filter and no photoshop/facetune.  In pure daylight. No filter and no photoshop/facetune.  After the date. In the yellow light of my home. No filter and no photoshop/facetune.  "Beauty is not in the face; beauty is a light in the heart.&qu

Hello, Beauties! It has been a HOT minute! I have, since my last post, moved to a bigger home and I now have my own beauty room. I took a back seat in makeup in the last year, more important things came up, such as getting married. I can't wait to post more, and probably not on a schedule yet. Through this blog, I want to work on becoming more confident in my makeup game, and hopefully, start making live videos of my makeup process. Hope your day is as beautiful as you are! Love always, Shea
