Newbie

My version of Dark Angel/Dark Fairy/Gothic
My version of Forest Nymph/Tinkerbel/Mother Nature
My version of Splash of colors/Rainbow Fairy/Abstract
The looks above are inspired by Misschievous.
It is not as polished as hers...What can I say, I'm a work in progress. I'd have to practice MORE.

 Putting make-up on is like painting on a canvas. It takes a good eye and skill to come-up with good and inspiring ideas. It is Art, a form of expressing your self.

I am a huge fan of make-up. I love watching make-up tutorials and make-up gurus do their thing, it seemed magical how they can transform from plain and simple to a fabulous or fantasy look. I learned tricks/tips from them on how to improve the skill that I acquired from years of watching my mom in our humble family business, the salon. 

I pretty much grew up attending hairdresser and make-up artist's seminars and it never fail to mesmerize me when I see these talented stylists come-up with fantastic ideas that are really jaw-dropping. As a kid it is like seeing cinderella transform as I watch them on the runway.

I didnt have access to the internet back in the Philippines to update myself on make-ups and hairstyles. My knowledge comes from my experiences and Mom's training . 

When I came to US for marriage, I have all the time in the world to hop on the computer whenever I want. The tutorials are overwhelming. And I certainly LOVE IT!

It started with watching eyebrow shaping, hi-lites and I stumble upon really good gurus like Misschievous, Michelle Phan/Rice Bunny, Promise Phan....Their creations inspire me. The videos provides full-packed information. From where to get affordable tools, great finds, to product reviews. I totally admire their talent on make-up transformations. From celebrities to disney characters, looks for different seasons or look of the day.
Misschievous
Michelle Phan
Promise Phan
I would certainly work on my skills to become as good as these girls and hopefully find my way to be a successful stylist/make-up artist someday. Who knows...**wink wink More looks to come.....
