Beauty Blogs and Videos

I've always been a fan of makeup. I remember when I was a kid, I used to go through my mom's stuff and put lipstick all over my face. Yup all over my face LOL! My mom doesn't like putting on makeup, she just thinks it's too artificial. Well I oppose that of course. Makeup is something that enhances your looks dramatically. It's not that you look totally different when you put on some but as I said, you're just enhancing what you already have. However, I don't think you should start piling on too much makeup when you're super young. Girls nowadays wear makeup like crazy! You'll get there so what's the rush all about?! When you get older and your skin looks awful, you'd wish you have taken care of your skin more. Omg, can you imagine a time machine blender?! Unfortunately, we cannot go back in time. I love makeup but I started at a reasonable age.

I really love putting on makeup on my eyes, I love making them look pretty with eyeshadows, eyeliner and mascara. Lately, I've been watching videos in Youtube and I must say that I'm hooked! My two favorites are emilynoel83 and xteener. Why? Well simply because they use drugstore products! I super love them for that. We can always see videos where they don't use anything but highend products like MAC, Smashbox, Shiseido, Shu Uemura, Chanel and so many more. I understand why they love using these products but sometimes you have to keep an open mind about products. You have to try the best makeup from both sides and those in between. It will surprise you sometimes how cheap products actually work. That's why I enjoy watching Emily Noel, she does reviews on products like Wet n Wild and I admit I'm a big fan too. Yeah I know they have products that suck but hey you can't deny the fact that they have products that can be compared to some high end brands too! I heard that their bronzers are great, I have two of their liquid eyeliners and I have no complaints about them so far. I have one in turqoise and one in blue. They last for hours and the color is just amazing. You put it on and voila your eyes are just pretty and bright! It does not hurt to try dirt cheap products sometimes especially right now that a $40 eyeshadow is not too practical. Go out there and explore different products!
