2 side projects I'm working on

I stayed up all night and I finally finished a new project I'm working on. Can you guess? If I had to guess, I wouldn't have guess it right because I have no fashion sense really. More than ever, I want to dress in "pretty" clothes, clothes that are different than what I'm used to, clothes shows my personality, I just want to step outside of my usual self and challenge who I think I am.

Small Pockets is a small shop I created that offer tops and accessories (in the future) at affordable prices from pieces that I personally choose. I'll be my own stylist, I'm not sure how it'll do, but why not right? Changing and "growing up" and developing a better sense of who you are is good, stagnant is not good.

Behind the scenes of my "creativity" for this shoot... Pins and tape are extremely useful.

Nước Mắm for the Soul is another project I've been working on for my Vietnamese community, but it's not anything yet, just ideas and barely starting it. I'm afraid of criticism since it doesn't involve just me and I'm afraid that people will misunderstand it, but we will see. Hence, why it's been developed so slowly....

I'm off to sleep and then to work. There was another project but I've done a horrible job at it, I will fix it next week. These projects have helped me learn a little more about HTML coding (well copy and paste anyways) and just challenging myself on ideas that run around my head...Life is short, I should always try.

In terms of beauty, I recently purchased the Walgreens Alpha Hydroxy Acid Cream that is supposedly for improvement in texture of skin, pores, and resurfacing the skin. I'll let you know how that goes after I finish it.

I can't wait for Sunday! This sleeping schedule is so bad for my health and skin...

Review: Maybelline's Eye Studio Lasting Drama Gel Eyeliner

Maybelline's Eye Studio Lasting Drama Gel Eyeliner in Blackest Black is very creamy and super gentle when applied to the lids, not to mention the brush is definitely a great add in as well. I remember when I first bought the L'oreal Hip Gel Eyeliner, the tiny brush that came with it was super stiff and horrible, but this brush is more flexible and it can be use to fling your winged eyeliners and such. Would I repurchase this product again? Yes, I really want to eggplant . In terms of staying power, I have really oily lids, so when I had this on the other day, it lasted a lot longer than I thought (although I don't remember how many hours, definitely not 24 though because I could tell part of the liner was fading). I'm sure if you apply an eye primer base or your concealer, it would last a very long time. I took this picture right after I bought the product because I was so excited to try it since it had ...

5 Wet n Wild lipstick swatches, why customers' reviews are important to a business, WIN free eyeshadow!

Practicing makes perfect, repetition with practice is even better I had told myself I'd dedicate an hour every day to practicing makeup applications but the past couple of weeks have been so busy for me that I haven't been able to- but then whenever I do practice, I always try the same groups of colors on the eyes and same techniques. My goal is next time I practice, I will have a YouTube video on and practice along with the guru as well. You assume once you watch something, you can replicate the same colors and techniques after- but not I. I do not want Beyoumakeupshop's customers nor my friends, or people I know to think I am always about promoting our own products. I really do try to find different ways to use the products, research on the products and reviews, and I do try to test on myself prior to adding them. I have not tested nor use everything in the Shop, but hopefully over time I will be able to. Why customers' reviews are important to a business I bel...

I'm grateful for work =)

The weather has been sooo cold here in Northern California, much colder than last year =( I don't think I can ever imagine myself living anywhere but the warm states, unless its New York and there's no need to drive with the subway/cabs. Ay, with the 30 for 30 challenge, I have been so uncreative, but now that I'm starting to work, I'll be more out of the box of my typical self and practice wearing different makeup at the same time. I'm so grateful because I finally found a part time job and after the first day of work (yesterday), I was so tired and end up sick. From now on, I will make sure to keep myself warm and wear tons of layers of clothing because it is so easy to get sick in this type of weather. One of most dislike situations is being sick- it just makes you feel helpless and weak. I'm gong to make sure I work extra hard and always do my best because I'm so grateful to have found it. How do people work full time, go to school, and still raise...
