Professional Discount Programs

Sooo I know for many new make up artists a big question is always what company offers a pro discount? How much and to exactly whom? Do I qualify??

Over the past couple of days I have been compiling a list of cosmetic companies that offer a professional discount. Below I have listed how much of a discount is offered and what you need to apply. Click on the brand name to be taken to their pro page.

Soda Pop Series: Cream Soda

Day #3: Cream Soda
I HAD to do a look for Cream Soda, simply because it is my favorite color, pink. Whenever I think if cream soda the first thing I think of is the color pink. I think of the color of the bubbles, can, and pop itself. This look is a pretty simple look. Very wearable for any day of the week.

Army of Love Contest: War Paint **Sugar Pill**

 Right now I am entering a contest and of course the contest is The Army of Love: War Paint Contest. (lol) This contest is all about Kerli's new music video called Army of Love. Basically you need to create a look inspired by her new video. Here a link if you want to check it out. The winner will get $200.00 worth of Sugar Pill makeup, which sounds like heaven to me. :)

I am entering a little short. Today is the last day to enter. It will close tonight at 7pm pst. If you hurry you can still enter too! You can check the contest out on Facebook, or at http://www.sugarpillshop.com/.

When Mars Crashes into the Sun...

This look was inspired by the only two colors I had in my makeup bag at the time. lol.

I wanted to post another look for today, but only had limited products here. This is what I managed to come up with.

Before I begin and post any pictures, I would like to apologize for my bush-man eyebrows. :/ lol. I am well aware of how bad they are. :)


Goldilux

I started as usual with my primer. I then applied Goldilux one of Sugar Pill's loose eye shadows. I applied Goldilux on my lid being careful not to get too much of it in the crease. I then applied MAC's pigment Brash & Bold into the crease. After blending the two together seamlessly, I then reapplied Goldilux back onto my lid to make it stand out more.

 After I applied my Tako by Sugar Pill right under brow for my highlight. Make sure to blend the Tako into the Brash & Bold. Once this is done line my bottom lash line with Plum Glitter Stick by Avon. I do this to help the loose pigment Ill be putting on top stay in place. I apply Goldilux on my inner lower lash line and Brash & Bold on my outer lower lash line. On my upper lash line I apply E.L.F's Midnight Liquid Liner. For my lashes I used Smash Box's Bionic Mascara. For blush I used MAC's A Bite of Apple, and there Wicked Ways Lip Glass on my lips.

This look reminds me of Mars Crashing into the Sun, Iron Man, Fire, Harry Potter, the list goes on. lol. I must say this is one of my favorite ones reccently. I highly recomend Goldilux. I used it dry but it is also amazing wet.

Today's Look... Oink! ;)

Today I woke up thinking of the colors Orange and Pink, one of my favourite color combos and wanted to do something really bright and funky. The two really play well off each other, and defently work on the color wheel, so I thought lets do it! This is defiantly a much brighter look but you could do the same with a lighter Pink and Orange.

Christmas 2010 Look...

I know I’m behind on the time when I say I’m going to talk about my Christmas look for 2010. Yes I am aware it is a new year already but I never got the chance to do a blog in the time that I could have. Either way it’s only a week dif, big deal.

My Christmas look for this year went a little darker then I would usually go. I stuck with traditional red and green colors.


The red was a lot more vibriant before this picture was taken.
(This picture was taken sometime after I decided to write about the look.)
Sorry. :'(
