Day3 of the Fabulous Holiday Blog Challenge:
I already blogged about this on Sunday!
So scroll down to see some of my decor.
Our tree is up now though!
The whole middle section of lights won't come on though!
And I still need to add more ornaments & bows, and a tree topper!
Isn't this dark middle section awful!
Hubby searched for an hour to figure out where the the missing plug is and couldn't find it.
Boo!
********************************************************************************Moving along!
I am no professional make up artist, but I do LOVE make up! So I'm going to share with you random tips I've learned from my MUA (make up artist) friends, the internet, and good ol personal trial & error!
So here is tip #1.
Do you wear foundation?
If so, how do you apply it?
I've heard mixed reviews from various MUAs.
Some have told me use a sponge- but then that takes up a lot of foundation and can hold lots of germs.
Some have told me use your fingers- but you can end up applying more in some areas and less in others. Basically causing unevenness due to the pressure in your hands.
Then of course there's the brush. This is my new favorite way to apply liquid foundation!
The above image is of the MAC 187 brush. Quite pricey but during the holidays you can get a brush gift set for $50. The sets are smaller but you get more brushes for the price you'd normally pay for just one. You can apply a small amount on top and use it to evenly apply your foundation.
I can't even express how much better this looks now! It makes a HUGE difference!
It literally gives me a flawless look.
Don't believe me? Check out some of these reviews.
Just make sure you pick up some brush cleaner of course!
