Make up before and after

Posted on Tuesday, July 12, 2011 | 4 Comments

I thought it would be fun to do a make up before and after post.  This post is dedicated to http://gosh-makeup.blogspot.com/ because she did a no make up post a few months back and I was really inspired by her to do my own. 

I actually don't really wear make up because I work in a very hot sweaty lab so at the end of the day I look super gross...when you add on the melting makeup it just isn't attractive.  

When I was first hired I would straighten my hair and apply eyeshadow and eyeliner and foundation and concealer... but after realizing what kind of environment I work in I decided to give up the make up...also my straightening iron broke :o(

In the pictures I have eyeshadow and eyeliner on. 


Left With make up, Right without

I'm in my mid 20's....although most of the time I just look like a teenager.  I think make up makes me look much more mature.

Also...I'm going to the International Makeup Artist Trade show in Vancouver so I'm super excited and getting pumped for it..it's next week. I'm hoping to pick up so Obsessive compulsive cosmetics nail polish (I thought they were coming to the show...but now their name is pulled off the exhibitor list...I hope they show up)


I haven't been super impressed with the 2011 nail polish collections but I saw the china glaze 2011 halloween haunting collection...and I REALLY REALLY want it.  

The number of nail polish posts have dwindled because I am on a huge no buy... I haven't bought nail polish for 4 months ...but two days ago I bought 2 polishes....china glaze sexagon and let's do it in 3d :o)

  1. I'm loving the Halloween collection too, but why is it coming out in August? They can't wait until at least September? I dunno, seems really early.
