Firstly, this is a tutorial for skin retouching, and basic cleaning up of images. There is no adjusting of noses, or thinning of the cheeks here, mainly because I’m not very good at it, I’m very clearly not a professional retoucher! But I’ve taught myself some tricks to make for nicer pictures...

I think I love this look..I need to practice the lips more though, it's so hard to get the right shape! ConCrit welcome photoshopped: and a full costume pic (with the owner of the couch) Foundation: Illuminare Pale Extra Coverage Palladio Rice Powder Blush: Everyday Minerals Apple...

I actually really want to wear this to work tomorrow...and bring a donovan cd too I love period makeup. 60s looks a lot better than the clara bow I tried once though! I followed (best as I could) the 1960s tutorial on Helena Rubinstein's site Face: Alima C2 foundation Cinema Secrets...

I love my new job..I'm encouraged to wear lots of makeup and I get to do free makeovers on girls! Only downer? I have to wear company mu, and not having any I have to improvise with similar colors (wearing MAC chrome yellow? big no-no the other day!) Small pic on the face because my...

Well, not everyday, but it's my quick and dirty standard. Love the cut and colour (plus, free!) from Vidal Sassoon, it's the same as most of my other cuts this year though, and I'm itching to mix it up next time. Touched up my shinies, lipgloss and eyeliner before I took the pics, but other than...

Hi there, I have super-pale, warm tones skin, and I am currently in search for my perfect blush... I've tried NARS Orgasm (way too gold-y) Milani Luminous is my current but I'd like something a bit darker (and it settles too thick on top of my foundation) I've tried MAC coygirl and summersheen...

so I saw the pink grapefruit swatch on a website and decided I needed to have it, d/c or not... so I found it on ebay, on a buy it now..the person only had stock photos and no boxes which made me feel uneasy, but didn't have any feedbacks calling her fake, so I decided to try it here's her info...

I'm still figuring out my digital camera settings (will follow the excellent tutorial later, these I just snapped quick) my sister was in town and brought her new Barbie Loves MAC lipstuff, which I had to test, and now have purchased my own hot pink lipstuff because of Sorry for cluttered...

Ok, so there's two Sally's in Toronto...one I've never been to, the other one is 3 bus transfers and an hour away...due to unforeseen circumstances, it was 2 hours away today..so I tried to make the trip worth my while, mostly by agreeing to anything the sally clerk suggested more than I wanted...

I went to one of those huge liquidation warehouses in winnipeg this summer, looked through the makeup just for kicks...and they had MAC, for obscenely cheap, the boxes just a little battered up. They definetly had discontinued stuff, because some of the items I had never even heard of! Also...

I love Mac shadesticks, because of the lasting power and (at first) blendability. But most of all because of the amazing color enhancing. Of course, they break really easy, and dry up quick, and worst of all are pretty pricey....does anyone know of cheap alternatives? I go through them pretty...

So I thought my makeup looked pretty good the other day, me and my friends were going to an 80s themed house party, so I got to play around with bright colors...I realize the pics might not be very good, but my friend took them on her cell phone and we were...getting ready for the party at the...
