Dark n' Sultry Christmas Look

Hey Everyone! So I really wanted to do a Christmas/Holiday look, but it seems like everyone is doing more gold, silver,and glittery looks, so I didn't want to do another one of those. I decided to do a dark look! I understand that Christmas isn't a dark holiday, but alot of people prefer darker looks (I know I do). Well I hope you guys like it! I incorporated red on to the lid and green smudged under the lower lashline to give it a Christmas touch;) haha. Blending some black all around, but to add a little pop to the look I added a subtle gold highlight to the inner corners. I would add some false lashes to this look, because sometime when a look is quite dark it can wash out your lashes and won't be noticable:/ Unfortunatly I couldn't find my false lashes! But I would totally wear them:)

Painting The Ends Of Your Makeup Brushes :)

Hey Everyone! I've recently painted the tips of my makeup brushes, and I wanted to show you all. A lot of makeup artists use this technique of painting the ends of their brushes! It's a way to identify your brushes when your working around other artist who may have the same brushes you do, so it makes it easy to see which are yours! It also give them some personality when you customize them, and it also makes them look very cute! I've done many of my brushes. I decided to paint different brands different colors. ex. my MAC brushes are a glittery pink, and my e.lf. brushes are a silvery purple, etc. All you need to do this is; scotch tape, nail polish, and, of course, your makeup brushes! Tape the end of your brush, leaving about a quarter of an inch space from the bottom, then just paint it! It's that easy:) I'll soon be posting a video tutorial on my channel, with step by step instructions.

Here are a few of my MAC brushes I painted:) I used Finger Paints nail polish in "Hue Left A Message?"

These are a couple of my e.l.f. brushes that I painted with a SCENTED nail polish from Revlon called "Not So Blueberry"

I painted all my Coastal Scents brushes a minty green color (showing a few) called "Mint Apple" from Sinful Colors.

These two are Studio 35 brushes from WalGreens, I painted these ones with another Sinful Colors nail polish in "Timbleberry".

Here are the nail polish that I used on my brushes:)
