I decided to jump on the throwback Thursday bandwagon. So here is a pick of me and my good friend from back in high school. This picture was taken back when I was in freshmen year.

First Impression

Hey everyone I'm back with a tutorial about first impressions I was trying to get a job at Sally's beauty store and I had to turn in my application. So everyone knows you have to look good even if you're just turning your application in or you want to meet the manager and make a good first impression. So that's what I wanted to do and I always thought your outfit was the most important but its not its your face and that's what this to tutorial is about. When you greet someone the first thing I notice is your face and how you express yourself next I look at how you hold yourself together what you're wearing and so this is what this tutorial is about.  When you're going in for an interview or just turning in your application or just wanting to meet the manager you always want to look your best you don't want to wear too much makeup or too little makeup and your outfit should be professional. I applied my regular foundation, contouring, and highlighting routine then I went and applied primer to my eyelid an added just a base of brule. And I wanted it to be really simple. I wanted a really thin liner nothing too dramatic so I took my Mary Kay angle brush and my Maybelline eyestudios duo and applied a thin line right above my lash line and winged it out just a little. Then I went ahead and applied mascara I used Maybelline the rocket. And for my blush I used Maybelline's fit me in a medium coral. And for my lips I didn't want anything to dramatic so I just used Maybelline Baby Lips in pink punch. Because I was just turning in my application I wasn't going in for an interview I wore a maxi skirt with tribal print on it with a black tank and I left my hair natural. So it was still elegant and sophisticated yet pretty casual to wear out during the day. So just remember that your face is most important because it's the first thing people see. So you just want to make a good first impression especially when you're applying at a beauty store you want everything to look perfect because you want to look like you know what you're doing. And the best thing to wear when you're going in for an interview or applying for a job is confidence so don't walk out the door without it.

I hope this helps and I hope everyone's having a beautiful day I know where I'm living it is sunny and warm and I'm so excited for summer I'll be coming out with more summer tutorials and outfits and I'm so excited to show you guys.

March Madness

                 Hey everyone! I am back and I have missed you guys a ton! I also have missed posting for you guys and March has been madness to say the least. I have not posted since March 14th so I have been gone for about a month. I am going to tell you why I decided to take a break from blogging. First, My spring break was the first full week of March and that within itself was crazy. During that week I got into a bad car accident. Yes! A car accident even though I do not drive. I was with a friend who was driving and we were heading back from the mall. We both did not see the red light and just kept going and T-boned the other car that was making a left turn. The impact turn our car completely around and I thank God that I only walked out with a bruised sternum. I was pretty medicated the last couple of days of my spring break so I posted some on the blog. Week after that I started school which was pretty crazy and I also I had received some bad reports which I will not share. Then my boyfriend and I spent our birthday having a nice lunch and just hanging out for that weekend. After that I realized I only had a couple of weeks left before my competition which I am excited to show you guys my make-up for it. I had to get started on it ASAP and I almost finished. I just had to give up some time to finish the art pieces that I am entering. But after Competition I will definitely be posting more I have some exciting post for you guys. I just had a lot of personal issues going on in March. But I hope you like the new stuff I will be posting.
