So I have realised that I haven't blogged in a while and feel that I should start again! I apologise to those who do read my blog as it has almost been 5 months since I last blogged! I have been so busy with work and preparing for Christmas and trying to set up my makeup business, Makeup By Rebecca, which I did not realise would be so difficult.
I have always had an interest in makeup, but since watching youtube videos and getting a lot of compliments from people about the way I do my makeup, I have decided to start making over other people, and try to teach them how to bring out their best features with the art of makeup. I didn't know that some people find it difficult to apply makeup as I find it just comes naturally to me. Some people can learn to play music by ear, like my sister who has her own youtube channel Violetfield95. Some people can paint their nails perfectly and make amazing art! I cannot paint my nails to save my life as I am too impatient to let them dry so they smudge everywhere! And I just watch videos, read tutorials, pick up my brushes and eyeshadows and away we go! Okay, I'm rambling on a bit but different people are able to pick up all sorts of skills naturally but are unable to do others.
I did a makeup course in August where I learnt a few new things as I did not know where abouts to contour the face and before I did struggle to colour match. I did not understand the concepts of lilac and green concealer either! It was a great day spent. The day went so fast as I enjoyed it so much. I absolutely love trying to create a look on someone new and trying to pick out the best colours that would suit their eye colour and really make them look and feel glamorous!
In the new year I will be dedicating the little free time I have to advertising my business and building up my portfolio. I experiment as much as I can with my own looks and have begun to borrow my friend's and family's faces.
Since seeing the Hunger Games this year, I absolutely fell in love with Katniss Everdeen's makeup! Especially the black and gold makeup at the tribute parade. I will be hoping to recreate the look below as soon as possible!
In the new year I hope to be able to blog more regularly and try out more looks on myself and others. I am also open to any suggestions of tutorials or blogs you would like to see in the future. I will be doing my December favourites in January 2014, and will also be doing my favourite Christmassy look before 2013 ends!
I hope you all have a Merry Christmas!
Lots of Love
