Good morning all! It’s Monday and if you’re like me, you’re already nursing a cup a coffee and trying to wake up and get motivated. I have my “Ellie Goulding” pandora station going to get me moving, and I’ve already gone through my emails and made my contacts for today for later gigs this week I have going on. I have a few errands today including a visit to the VA Hospital for check ups, lunch with a friend, a face paint workshop this afternoon I will be teaching. Then, last but not least, I am stocking my makeup kit this week on some things I am low on.
I wanted to share some makeup essentials that are on my wish list or that I already have. Just in case any fellow makeup artists out there are reading, I will provide links (when you click on the image, it should take you to wear you can purchase items!)
Portable Makeup Station
Kryolan Ultra Cream Foundations
Kryolan Make Up Case
Ben Nye Setting and Face Powders
Ben Nye Foundation Pallete ( I am ordering this one!)
Isn’t this necklace really cute?! I need to get this!
Ben Nye Concealer Wheel
Bobbi Brown Face Pallete
ZUCA Pro Makeup Bag Set
A lot of my makeup I have posted here, if you haven’t noticed is Ben Nye and Kryolan. If you have never heard of these brands, they are mainly used for stage makeup or even movie production makeup. You see these brands behind the scenes and even at the IMATS. (International MakeUp Trade Show)
I use Ben Nye for my body painting, but I want to branch out and start using their cosmetics as well. Their foundations and powders really help on photoshoots helping to keep your model looking fresh and not oily and sweaty as their foundations, powders and sealers help to keep it sweatproof and long lasting. I am ordering a bunch of stuff this week and next, so I will be sure to give reviews if yall want that sort of thing.
Here are a few images of their catalog from the Ben Nye Website
This is a pic of Priscilla Ono, who is an amazing MUA! This is her latest obsession color above! She pulls it off really well!
And some exciting news out there for Hair Stylists that use Paul Mitchell Products, they finally made a Dry Shampoo Spray! So, keep your eyes open for this one! I haven’t bought it yet, but I will be because I am a huge fan of dry shampoo!
I’s thinking of doing something like this (color wise) to my hair. What do you think?
Well, I need to get into the shower and get ready for the day! Thanks for waking up with me this morning!
Don’t forget to smile today! You never know whose day you will brighten!
xoxox, Cecilia
