Hi guys, so today I eventually decided to try out the makeup look that Penelope Cruz had on on the Nespresso commercial made years ago, everytime I saw that commercial I always like looking at her eyes trying to figure out the right shades of color and how the look was created , I know that my attempt at it wasn't even close to it but...hey....it was worth a shot... I now know that I should've used a darker color for the winged part instead of Crave from Urban Decay. I think if I had used a black eye shadow the look would've probably look more like it....anyway next time....so I guess you can call this look another makeup look....anyway enjoy what I have posted until I decide if to redeem myself or just leave it as it is.....anyway.....until my next blog......

Hi guys, so this does look like a lot of products was used just to accomplish a no makeup makeup look but doing a no makeup makeup look for me is a bit tricky, only because as you saw in my video I do have some really dark under eye circle, so in order for me to hide those I obviously have to use my concealer which do seem like using unnecessary products but I wanted a really smooth, flawless look without having those dark circle showing. I wouldn't recommend using the Hourglass Immaculate Liquid Powder under your eye area only because it settles into fine lines and wrinkles and makes them even more noticeable so for that I used my concealer and I would also skip the setting powder when using the Hourglass Immaculate Liquid Powder because when blended into the skin you get a nice powdered and mattifying finish. As I mentioned in the description bar on my video using a face highlighter is totally optional...I just love my Luminous Lighting Powder. Anyway here's some photos of all the products and a list of the brushes used, and I do hope you enjoy my blog and my video.....until my next blog......

Hi guys, as I mentioned in my introduction blog when the weather is getting cold or when winter is actually here my fashion blog will be to a minimum only because my attire is mostly black or grey or just not enough colors....you know what I mean....this cold weather just makes everything in your life so down ..... you don't feel like going out because it's cold.....but yet still five days a week I have to get up and head out....cold or not, but I certainly can't let that keep me back or affect my everyday life living in Canada, I guess I have to get used to it, so today I had a planned outing with my kids, went shopping to one of my favorite stores....Sephora....I had to get my share of the VIB 20% off. I had my eyes on a lot of stuff so I was waiting patiently for the sale to start, and I did get my hands on all the stuff I wanted and more except for one which was all sold out....can't believe how beauty crazy people are....haha.....but then again so am I.I guess you can say I eat, sleep and dream about makeup, but that's ok it's just my hobby, I love playing with makeup and trying out new beauty products....so before this blog gets a bit lengthy and senseless let me just get right to it.....this is my outfit that I wore today, not like it's all that or anything, but just had to share....and mind you it was cold out and I braced the cold just to get a photo of my outfit including the shoes this time...anyway hope you guys enjoy.....until my next blog....
as I mentioned in one of my summer fashion blog I just love details
and this sweater had all of that ....
so here I'm acting as if I'm not cold at all
Sweater (Forever 21), Jeans and Booties (Old Navy)
Hi guys, so here's another one of my many looks that I love creating, sorry but the photos on the blog and my you tube video just doesn't look right but these same photos looks so good on my camera, don't know why, but anyway this look I would definitely wear around the Christmas holiday season because it's not a look I would wear casually....I would definitely pop on some false eye lashes as well, just so your eyes would stand out more.
