I
think i have always been interested in makeup. Art in general actually.
I dabbled in drawing, i wrote, i sang... and of course I had my friends
with likewise interests..
It
never was a competition, but i always felt as though there was never
that one thing that i was able to
shine through with. I never thought much about my makeup as an art at
the time, I just knew i loved the vivid pigments and gorgeous color
combinations that could be made to add drama and style to every outfit.
So throughout high school I was just known as the "colorful one" who always had makeup done to match every single outfit lol
Sephora
was this heaven that I only wished I was able to frequent.
It wasn't till about two years ago, on a stateside deployment with the
Army National Guard, where I finally had enough money to set aside and
splurge with to finally start making my way with my hobby. Then one day
while browsing youtube, I found this amazing makeup guru: Lauren, The
Queen of Blending!
I was hooked, I never thought outside the box even once with the stuff she came up with, so i watched more and more,
found other gurus and beauty bloggers and realized this is what I could shine through with.
Its
my form of self expression, I can display an emotion, a feeling, a
style, I can pretend to be someone else, an alter ego, its amazing to
see what can be done and by everyone using brushes and shadows.
So
now I have a page where I never once thought I would have HALF as many
followers as I do.. I love it. I love finding people who share my
affinity for makeup!
A
huge inspiration would be of course the queen of blending herself, she
doesnt care for trends, she just does what she wants and likes and says
forget all the closed minded people who cant accept a lil color in this
seemingly monochromatic world =]
She
also turned me on to what I think is one of THE most amazing brands
EVER- Sugarpill Cosmetics. so bright, colorful, and just my style!!
bright and bold!
I'm no model, or even close to being a professional makeup artist [although someday I would like to be]
I am just an everyday girl who likes to feel glamorous <3
