Below is a great kit I found and would like to share!

Collections Wedding Essentials Only $19.00 usd

Please keep in mind that prices here and on other parts of the site are subject to change without notice!

Monday's Natural look

I useually start with the browns, that if I go a little out of the area I want I can quickly remove it faster with my foundation application.

1. Brows

Essential Brow Kit  A complete kit for expertly shaping grooming and defining your brows. The all-inclusive kit contains wax to sculpt the brows and two powder shades to create a natural look.

Motives Lustrafy Mascara

I like to prime my eye lids before I do my foundation as well so that by the time I add my shadow I know it is fully set long enough to not smudge and pull.

2. Eye primer/base

A creamy weightless formula that helps smooth and even the complexion of the eyelid creating a perfect canvas for eye makeup. This formula extends the wear of eye shadow prevents creasing and makes shadow colours more even intense brilliant-looking fresh and just-applied all day.

I like to also prime my face before I add any other makeup, weather it is foundation/blush or pressed powders.

3. Perfecting Face Primer:

A clean satin-finish primer that helps keep makeup looking fresh and prevents fading. The formula also absorbs excess oils and minimises the appearance of pores by evenly distributing light to help hide and soften skin imperfections and fine lines.

I like to than add a light layer of liquid foundation(s) and fix/shape around my brows if need be.

4. Liquid Powder Mineral Foundation:(please choose the right shade for your skin tone)

A 2-in-1 foundation that provides the superior buildable coverage of a creme foundation and primer with the natural-looking sheer finish of a powder foundation. This foundation hides discolourations and covers skin with a fine light-diffusing layer to minimise pores and imperfections for clear satiny-smooth skin under any lighting.

(Optional) And if you use pressed powders/dry foundation powders, I use it sometimes if my skin is feeling extra oily at the time, and take away some shine from my skin.

-Full Coverage Photo Finish Powder:

A velvety-smooth powder that blurs fine lines for a soft and even look. This powder protects skin and absorbs shine while setting makeup to create a flawless finish. Perfect for all skin types and shades.

I usually add as mentioned in another post (HERE), my fake lashes(if I am wearing any) before I add my eye makeup!

5. Lashes that are thin and look natural!

False Eyelashes:

A set of false eyelashes made with natural hair fibres for an alluring natural look. Create bigger fuller more inviting eyes with our collection of false eyelashes. These do not come with the adhesive/glue!

Motives Lash Adhesive

After the glue has set I than add my eyeshadow, here is a nice neutral color I like!

6. Pressed Eye Shadow:

A luxurious eye shadow that is crease-proof and deflects light away from fine lines for a bright polished look. Featuring many shades in glitter matte and pearlised finishes the possibilities for unique looks are endless

Eyeliner
7.Motives Khol Eyeliner
An exceptionally smooth eye pencil that provides precise definition without or pulling the delicate eye are. Enhance and enliven your eyes with the bold long-wearing colour of this eye pencil.

Optional
-Sculpt Series:

A perfecting palette that includes everything you need for a flawless radiant complexion with a no-makeup look and feel. Perfect for concealing, highlighting and contouring the face. This palette is perfect for all your foundation needs.

And here is a nice lip color I like

PS

Here is a nice kit I found as well! ENJOY!

Want you hair long again? And a little explanation...

I love hair extensions, I don't know too many women who don't! There are so many different types out there, below you will find two of these different types. I'll explain as best I can on how each type is used, I'm a hairstylist! Please if you have any questions, feel free to ask me in the comments box below!!

Another few things I love! Kind of a tutorial :-)

Now I wasn't really one for make-up a few years ago, I mean I used it, but I really wasn't interested in wearing it, I wasn't good at applying it properly, I didn't wear all the essentials, like foundation and other things that hide imperfections! But I guess since I turned 30 years old, I noticed how tired age was making me look! 

So now that I am 36 and I have finished beauty(Hairstyling) school (where it was mandatory to wear it) I kind of enjoy it, I would often watch videos on YouTube and see the different kinds of ways I could apply my make-up(eye-shadow combos and eye-liner tutorials, etc..) and now that I am experienced I love sharing what I have learned and the colour combos I put together as well! So here are some things I would like to share with you! 

All Over: For the girl who wants to hide her freckles this is probably your go to all over cover!

Lashes: I have found out the hard way, that putting the lashes on before eye make-up is easier that applying them after your eye make up! It's harder for the glue to adherer(stick) to your lid with a foundation under the glue layer!

Brushes: I absolutely LOVE brushes by this brand! They are soft pick up, hold and apply the products very well! The eyelash and brow brush duo works great as well!

Foundation: This lightweight acne fighting foundation works to disguise redness, blemishes and uneven skintone. The flawless coverage foundation formula is infused with acne fighting key ingredients Salicylic Acid, Witch Hazel, Camphor, Tea Tree and soothing Aloe, to help prevent and treat acne blemishes. 

Eye-shadow: This high quality, yet affordable eye makeup set allows you to achieve everyday professional results while creating the look that best reflects your personal style. 

Eye-liners & Shadow Stick pearl/glow:

1.  Shadow Stick pearl/glow- A touch to the inner corners near your tear-ducts to highlight your eyes a little!

2. Brightening Eye Liner(in black) - The rich gel-powder formulation in this eye-liner instantly brighten eyes for a healthy, radiant look. 

Mascara: This is great after your lash glue has set and dried

Blushs:

1. With a a light stroke of this powder over your upper cheek bone area, it gives a nice light glow and highlight to make your face seem brighter. You could add a little here and there to your face's natural high peaked areas for an even bright look! LOVE this as well, so pretty!

2. A nice soft pink lightly dusted near or on the cheek bones! (some apply behind the bone, some apply directly on the cheek bone)

Bronzers: I don't use bronzer's too often, but I really love how it looks when it is applied just right to the right area! This one has a very nice shimmer to it and you have to apply just the right amount for it to look phenomenal! Dust a little on the outer corner of the brow bone just above the temple and you'll look sun kissed! The shimmer is my favorite part!

Lips: I picked this colour, (Strawberry) because it goes great with all the other colours I have added here today!

Once you're all done, these are a great finishing touch!

Finishing powder and finishing spray: 

1. a translucent, versatile loose powder that creates a flawless, soft focus effect to the skin. Masks fine lines and imperfections for a glowing, radiant complexion. This incredibly soft and invisible powder is ideal for everyday wear, either alone or over your favorite foundation.

And

2. Keep your make-up staying in place all day with a radiance boosting invisible hold with this new Makeup Mist & Set. The invigorating mist moisturize's and soothes the skin with key ingredients Aloe, Green Tea, Cucumber and Vitamins A, C & E.
