Hi! This is just an announcement post to say that I uploaded a makeup tutorial. It was kind of a “practice” video. I have this urge to film makeup tutorials, but I keep making excuses- there’s no room in my apartment, my lighting sucks, editing is a struggle, my arms look big, I don’t have time, I act awkward on camera, somehow it looks like I have a lazy eye when I’m talking to the camera, etc. This one has all of those aspects, but I still went ahead and did it.
The makeup has all kinds of flaws and didn’t turn out exactly how I wanted. I would describe this makeup as a get ready with me while I slap on and go look. If I was going out somewhere, I would have cleaned up my contour with translucent powder, carved out my brows, and more finishing touches. In reality though, I put this on and took it off to just hang out in my apartment. Please excuse those undesirable little things.
Video here.
About the makeup
I used the Tartelette in Bloom palette because it’s been too long since I picked it up to use on my self and the champagne gold shade was calling my name. For this look I tried out the Voila style lashes by Esqido. They contacted me to send them a sample of the pair of my choosing and their lash glue. I was very excited to receive an email from them with the offer because I’ve seen youtubers talk about these lashes for years. They were very lightweight and popped right on when I used them. The lash glue comes in a lipgloss style packaging with a brush applicator. The packaging is the prettiest lash glue I’ve ever tried, and it seemed to do the job. These are lashes that screamed “bridal” to me.
