Blue eyes & orange lips

 
I wanted to play with Beyoumakeupshop's 42 shimmer double stack palette I was inspired by this Fall's beauty trend of subtle makeup and somewhat "orange" lips.

The look on the left was the natural Fall makeup trend I was hoping to end up with- but instead of smoky black & grays, I ended up with gold/orange and blue ( a tribute to my lovely UCLA) . I honestly tried to zoom into the picture and saw smoky blues- but it was a bit tad difficult to pull  this smokey under the eyes look (on myself) because the colors fall into the sockets and its not as easy to see it until you have very light skin.




This picture shows (the blues) appearing to be very "smeary" and has no depth in colors (this camera didn't capture the colors well enough) because I tried using multiple variations of blue and some grays. The original model has a thicker and more define line at the top and slowly faded down.



I didn't have any orange lipstick and so patted on some of the orange blush from the palette in the center of the lips =) I will revisit this look again!

Create a relationship that encourages openness

Is it easier to be consumed in the life I want to live and and not pay attention to the life I have, especially to those who are most close to me. The balance between the external and internal worlds we balance and manage on a daily basis can overshadow how life moves swiftly and quickly through the lives of our loved ones. If I could go back a few years ago or 10 years ago, I would wish I'd take more time to be myself and to build a relationship of openness and encouragement. It's crazy how we can share our deepest fears and our entire worlds with friends, yet, within our own family, we are so afraid to share those secrets. Share your secrets and fears with your family, regardless of the situation, they will be there for you.

First day testing out Canon EOS M6 (with 11-22m lens)

We are beginners of photography, but since I am working to build/start my YouTube channel, I invested in the Canon EOS M6 camera recently. I still have my Nikon T3 from years ago, but I never put in the time and effort to learn how to use it quickly. I feel very excited with our new M6 as it's a greater starter camera for people like myself, who wants videos and photos to be beautiful without a lot of efforts. Over time, I would like to learn more about photography because I love looking at beautiful Instagram profiles and YouTube videos. Who doesn't? :) What do you think about the Canon EOS M6? Are you a fan of Canon, Nikon, Sony, or Fuji? Below is our first Vlog with Olive using the new camera!
