BROW DOWN

Nothing makes a face like a great BROW! With the amount of attention this facial feature has been getting lately, it's only right I share with you my simple how-to. Here's 3 easy steps on how to achieve a more defined brow. VERY SIMPLE!!! 

• Use the brow wiz pencil by Anastasia, simply draw your ideal arch.
• Use brow powder by Anastasia to fill inside the outline area using an angle brush.  I prefer MAC #263
• Use duality highlight and concealer pencil by Anastasia to outline.  Lift and of course highlight the area.  I prefer MAC Brush #242 to buff out the highlight area.

Fashion without the Price Tag

Ladies I am a living witness to shopping on a great bargain. Well, I had three items I needed to return which totaled to about $50.00.  So I saw a dress on the sales rack which stated an additional 50% off on the markdown price.  I also noticed some shoes that were marked down to $39.99 and had and additional 50% off that price.  The dress came up to $16.00 and the shoes were $20.   

Here's my outcome. The clutch and accessories I already had but YES! An AC look for sure all for  50 DOLLARS! What do you guys think, feedback is encouraged and welcomed.

Another GREAT Collabo PUBLISH Worthy!

Not in vain...

Today in class, my young ladies learned how to work with matte eye shadow. I preformed the look on one side and two of the students, Asia and Tavana,  accomplished the other side. 

What do you guys think to say two 15 yr olds demonstrated what was taught to them in class ? I'm so very proud of them, it lets me know that they are really paying attention and that my teaching isn't going in vain. #sbbsyo
