MAKE YOUR BROWS BENEFIT

Hey my lovely makeup addicts!!!!! Today i'm going to review and give you guys a picture tutorial using Benefit Cosmetics Brow Zings, Gimme Brows, and High Brow.... Let me start by saying that these products are amazing!!! I have tried so many products from a lot of makeup brands like  for example NYX, Urban decay, M.A.C, Smashbox, Bobbi Brown, Anastasia from Beverly Hills etc...
The one I really loved was Anastasia and I still love it don't get it wrong but I have found something right there next to to it and that's benefit cosmetics.... So when benefit came out with their new products i was a little skeptical but I decided to buy some of the products, I was given two of them by the way and believe me it does not influence my opinion at all... so lets get started with the pros and the cons i'm going to try to give you the best review I can :)

Lets start with The brow zings... So this product contains one side of a pigmented wax(left) and another side of a brow powder(right), it also contains one small angle brush, one flat bush, and a pair of small tweezers. Here are the things I love from this product... first thing is the wax I love this because it prevents your eyebrows from moving to all different directions... second I love that the wax helps the brow powder to adhere more to your brows and with the wax already in place it also helps to shape your eyebrows very well, also the powder is goes on really smooth and has no fall out like other brow powders I have tried in the past.

now lets start with the cons... This is the part I really don't like:(... So for this product their is two things I don't like and the first one is  when you apply the wax you really have to build a lot in order to get that perfect brow and that takes some of your time to do that and the other thing I really didn't like and found no use for were the brushes, to me they are too small and the flat brush does not make any sense to me. Pretty much that's it for the cons Other than that I love this product. 

 

 First step Dip the angle brush into the wax and start shaping your brows with gentle strokes until your get your desire shape or form

Second with the rounded brush just apply again with gentle strokes the brow powder that way the powder adheres to the wax

Now to finish off the look just highlight your brow bone using High Brow Highlighting pencil and with either your finger or a stiff dome brush just blend it lightly.

 I wanted to review this at the end because this is my overall favorite product!!! I really love this product because its amazing... without this highlighter its like your brows are boring and this makes everything way much better. So when using this product you just added under your brow bone and this highlighter just adds more definition and more shape to your eyebrow its just like your miracle worker for your brows, I really have nothing negative to say about this product, It goes well with any skin tone as long as you blend well and not over exaggerate and add a lot of it....

So you guys these are my new favorite brow products for the moment and I hope this moment lasts a long time :) thank you so much for reading and please don't forget to follow me....

Getting started in YouTube

Hey my beautiful makeup addicts so today I wanted to talk about YouTube and how I've been doing with it pretty much my experiences. Getting started in the "YouTube word" is a little difficult because you want to do everything perfect for the reason of not getting criticize by your own piers. When I decided to do videos on YouTube I thought about it a lot because I was scared of being criticized but also I was scared of losing track of life and family. In the beginning it was really hard because I didn't know how to balance YouTube, my family and pretty much my life so it became very difficult. Little by little I'm working in balancing everything, when my husband works I start doing videos and blogging, when he's home I get at least two hour of still working on videos and he gets to do what he wants like Playing video games...lol

Even though I've been having trouble with that I also been having a lot of good things come out of it too :). If you know me personally you know I'm a very shy person and I can be really quiet.... so  just the thought of doing YouTube videos it was a very difficult challenge for me, I had people telling me to do videos but I was scared of  people seeing what I do, I didn't want to be criticized.

 So finally I decided to be a big girl and suck it up and I started recording my first YouTube video :) and it was a fail...lol... The footage never got edited it was super long to edit and every time I would do something to it it never saved or it erased so I just left it there and recorded a new one...lol Ps I know my editing sucks but this video was really bad, but this is my baby so its ok :)

(Just in case you haven't seen it)

I know I know a lot of people say  they were all shy when they started and made them change  after that, you know what I do believe them because YouTube does give you a sense of courage and power. 

Now lets talk about the struggles of subscribers and views........ This is something that sometimes it could be really stressful, Why? you ask ...... well because this is what shows people if you're "good" or not, I try not to get stressed about it because well if you like me then you like me if you don't then that's ok too. I know I don't have a lot of subscribes or like a million views but I know one day I will get there and if you're starting out don't get discourage..... for some of us you will be liked instantly for other it will take time and that's ok. 

YouTube is a very scary world to jump in but its also a wonderful world to discover new things about you you didn't know, So if you're thinking about it then maybe you should just try it once and see how you feel about it, and if you do try it well try it because you love teaching and because you love doing what you do, believe me that will reflect on your videos.

Don't forget if you want more of me then check out.....

YouTube video FAIL!

Hey my fellow Addicts so I've been trying to make my first YouTube video and it was a complete fail!...lol. First of all I really couldn't stop laughing and as soon as I started recording with my friend Vanessa and my little sister it  got quiet and awkward , finally when we start feeling comfortable  and finished recording we decide to look at the video and the camera dies but that's not the best part, so I say"Well lets download this to the computer" and guess what?????....... Yes you probably guessed it, it did not download at all...so there you go no video but don't worry I'm working on a new one :-)
 
So I know this is not much of a blog but don't worry I will post more interesting  blogs very soon and till then my lovely addicts have fun and go get addicted with makeup...
