In Makeup you advance by doing. There is no shortcut you just have to get up and do it! I have gotten better in my makeup application. My only problem area is my eyebrows but I am working on it ;). Anywho here are some photos of my makeup progression. And some Videos!

In the first half of my makeup applications I was only using one color and not doing any blending or crease cutting. It looked good enough, gave me a small pop of color. In the second of half of my makeup applications you'll be able to see how I began to use certain techniques in my makeup: crease cutting, playing with dark and light colors, giving my eyes shape and dimension.


This was the Early Days of My Makeup...Not Bad Right?!

Years 2005 - 20011


Pretty Simplistic looks. No shading, no contrasting colors. Just one color, liner, and some lip gloss and I was still killing it! LOL



 


My Makeup Looks Now: See we've got some contouring, shading, creasing, etc. In this part of the blog I'm showing you my current progress in makeup. I evolve everyday by doing. Makeup can be a challenge but you will only improve if you continue to work at it. 

Years 2012 - Present












These are just the different ways I have done my makeup. I've been able to evolve in makeup because I kept at it. Makeup is an enhancement tool. You can do so many creative things with makeup and its simple small techniques that can help you to achieve everything from smokey eyes to simple everyday looks. Just try it out. I can give out a list of YouTubers that will help you to mold your technique. Just let me know if you would like the list in the comment box below!

Marc Jacobs is one of my favorite designers hands down. I have every perfume he's come out with and I love his entire fashion collection. He's chic, original, and knows how to be himself something I envy and admire. And now he's coming full circle with his career by adding Beauty to his repertoire. Marc Jacobs is releasing his makeup line exclusively in Sephora on August 9th, 2013!


Many other designers have tried and failed in the beauty dept but with Marc Jacobs its projected that the line will succeed and make well over $15 Mil between August and December of this year, and in 2014 to make 20 Million.

Explaining the expansion into cosmetics, Marc says:

“I like the transformative qualities of fashion and fashion to me is not just clothing, it’s handbags, it’s shoes, it’s clothes, it’s hair, it’s makeup, it’s fragrance, it’s the whole ritual of making those choices, of enjoying the ritual, of making the choices that will tell the world who you want to be that day.”

Now I've never been one for luxury makeup as I can't afford it. But Marc Jacobs seems to be doing a great job and I can't wait to see what his makeup is like! I may buy 1 piece at a time LOL :)!
