Valentine face painting (Makeup Monday)

This week is Valentine's Day and this past weekend was a big "LOVE" weekend filled with hearts and flowers galore. I cannot tell you how many I painted. Maybe it had something to do with this design I wore. I am so looking forward to this Friday!! Can you tell? I may even have something really special to share after ;)
 Anyway I hope you find some use out of this little eye design.

For this look I used the following:
FAB Princess shimmer
Ben Nye Lumiere Aztec Gold
Custom fire rose splitcake
Cameleon White
Wolfe Black
1/2 inch Flat Royal & Langknickle brush, #3 round Loew Cornell

The best beauty tip ever (Makeup Monday)

 Today's Makeup Monday is a little different. My best advice on beauty is that you are created in HIS image. You are beautiful before God's eyes so, does it really matter what others say about you?

No matter what when you put yourself out there people will talk about you good and bad. It doesn't matter what anyone says about you. What matters is what God says about you....So God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them (Genisis 1:27). In all things God works for the good of those who love him. (Romans 8:28)... God is for me! Who can be against me? (Romans 8:31)


  I have always prayed with my kids and asked that the light of God shine through us in all that we do and say... I am a light in the world (Mt 5:14)... I am a light to others, and can exhibit goodness, righteousness and truth (Eph 5:8-9). I am not perfect. I slip up, I make mistakes (more than I'd like to admit) but, I have been redeemed through HIS grace. I'm here to tell you that the most beautiful you is the you God created. He created you with beautiful gifts to share with the world not to keep and hoard for yourself and your own glory but for HIS glory.

 I only want to glorify him with the gifts he has given me and I hope that I bless each and every person that I touch. In this world there are many that will try to steal your peace. Don't let them. I have peace (Eph 2:14) Find your Peace, Love and Strength in HIM!

 Go out today and be the beautiful you that God created you to be. That is my best beauty advice. Let his love and light shine through you. That is the most beautiful you will ever be!

Floral Lace Face painting (Makeup Monday)

Over the weekend I had a gig where I was asked do do some makeup for some tween girls. They were having a Parisian themed party complete with beautiful masquerade masks.  The girls wanted me to paint their faces to match their masks so, I thought it was only fitting to paint an adult version of a lacy mask on myself before I arrived.

This is what I came up with. I hope you are inspired to create a lacy design yourself.

I used the following products for this look:
On my eyes:
Bare Minerals eyeshadows in Envy and Chameleon, La Femme eyebrow powder as a crease shadow, Navy eyeshadow from the Coastal Scents 42 Stack Palette, Ben Nye Lumiere eyeshadow in Azure as eyeliner under my eyes and Blacktrack fluid line eyeliner.
Face Paint:
Metallic opal paint from Kryolan and White Shimmer powder from Guerlain
Cameleon white, Custom Blue Rose split cake and custom leaf split cake.
