My love for makeup


It's never been easier to document visually anything than now.  Mobile devices makes the process faster, easier, and "sharable." I'm happy +Google+  has made it easier than ever to have all your photos from years ago in one place, at least if you have Android. As today is a new year, looking back at photos of years ago remind us of what we loved and what we aspired to be.

Below are a compilation of pictures of my "journey" to practice makeup, not only to look and feel better, but it gives me a chance to be creative. Learning makeup brings out the artistic qualities in me and indeed, it can be a great distraction during stressful times.

 My interpretation from Black Swan (the movie)

Yup, I even started a YoutTube channel!


I only knew how to apply 2 colors, over and over every day, on every single look.

I experimented with different mascaras for us girls who have no lashes. (Limpy, thin, lashes that don't curl= waterproof mascara!)


Matt lips are my favorite! I love beautiful colors on the eyes.

Eye liner is quiet tricky. Clear skin is the greatest foundation!

Tyra Banks said add a tiny bit of sparkles near the tear ducts to make your eyes look more wide awake! I listened!

Ah, bronzers and highlighters!

The days of the super thin eye brows...

Nails were painted on using a creamy eye shadow color. Inspiration from photo below.



Learning to contour the nose

Bruins for life!


Arranging and breaking down all lipsticks...



Festive for the holidays!

Trying to create tutorials for myself. I can never repeat the same look twice :(

Matte lipsticks can be too matte!

Beyoumakeupshop came about!





Inspirations to one day be great at makeup!



Punched in the eye! ;)



I love my short hair!

Love neutrals!


Inspired by Swan Lake musicals


That's me!

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.

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
