Kandee Johnson's Glaminar 2010

Where do I even begin?! Kandee Johnson's is my new found hero!
She is such an inspiring person you really would not believe that everything she talks about and everything she says makes you want to be a better person.
I loved getting the chance to meet such an amazing person as she is. Her Glaminar was so positive and so fun! It was a really great experience to say the least. She has good advice and I'm sure by practicing what she taught us, I can go far in my career. She was what I needed to give myself that extra push to say no matter what any one says about my career choice I am strong and I can overcome anything.
I also met some amazing people there as well. Everyone was so nice. I was very surprised that i wasn't shy. But these girls were so sweet, I am so glad i got to meet them.
If there is ever another Glaminar I will be going to it for sure. I came out with alot more than just makeup and good way to go about running my own business and being my own boss. I learned that being myself is great and loving myself and others is even greater, Taking risks breaking the ice it is all worth it in the end. I honestly think that I have become a better person and have a much much much better outlook on the way in going to approach things. Kandee gave the extra little confidence i needed to have faith in everything i do.
Dear Kandee,
If you ever read this :) I want to Thank You for being the person you are and giving girls the inspiration to move forward even when they think they are going on where. I love your sprint and how kind you are. Now when I feel like things suck or I'm just not living up to what I know I can do. All I to do is go back to what you said and put the confidence back into my life and into heart. You gave my such drive to go out and do my best!! So that is exactly what I am going to do thanks to you. So once again from the bottom of my heart, I will never ever forget the things you've taught me. I will carry them with me and cherish them forever

-Star :)

Halloween Look

Another Black, Red and White Look.
How i got the Look:
(very easy makeup look)
  • I started off using the Red by Bloody Mary in the outer corner and above and into the crease.
  • Then taking the red and lining the lower lash line and extending it out using an angled brush.
  • I took a Matte Black E/S and did the same thing but still leaving red showing through. and counted on the lower lash line.
  • I took a clean  brush with Matte White on the lids of my eyes and took a clean angled brush and continued that on the inner and outer part of my eye following the shape.
  • Lined my eyes with Gel Liner and add Mascara
  • For brows i just used a dark brown E/S and fulled in with a brow brush.
  • For cheeks i just contoured with a matte bronzer.

Halloween Mask Makeup

Hey Everyone!
So i decided to do a look for Halloween that is kind of like a mask.
Like what you see above.
This is what came out of being bored.

How I got the Look:
**Note: I didn't not make a youtube tutorial out of this **
(if you would like to see a video tutorial comment below)
  • I started off by taking my Maybelline Gel Liner in Blackest Black and made the outline for the shape i wanted to go for with a thin liner brush.
  • Then shading in the whole in with the Gel Liner.
  • I took a Matte Black E/S and went over all the Liner using an angled and crease brush. Blending on the balls of my eyes a Matte White to make the middle of the eye to appear lighter.
  • Took the Matte White and went in between the Black Liner and took it up to my brow, and fading the White out into my skin.
  • I then took a Matte Red E/S for this i used Bloody Mary Red (which you can get from Hot Topic) and followed the shape on the top and the bottom.
  • Lined the water line with Gel Liner and added Mascara.
    For brows i just took the Matte Black E/S with a angled brush.
  • For Lips i took a red and mixed it with a darker plum color and put black eye liner to contour the lips on the sides.
  • For Blush i took a reddish pink and put it on the apples of my cheeks and blended torwards my temples and used matte bronzer to contour.





 And that's the finished look
I hope you guys like it :)

Walking with Dinosaurs/Saw Jamie Foxx

I decided I am going to do a short blog to tell you about my Sunday. So today Fambam, my Boyfriend Daniel, my Lil brothers God Father Ray, and I went to the Staples Center to watch Walking with Dinosaurs. It was a good show when it comes back to LA you should take your kids. But as the show went into intermission Daniel and I wanted to go down stairs and get some snacks, well as we were headed down stairs Jamie Foxx walks through the doors
(i was too stunned to take a pic of him so this is not the actual pic of him from today obviously haha)
We were like 3 feet away from him for a while and all i could do was look haha. Now i wish i could have taken a picture with him. Oh well!! That was like the highlight of that day! Then the VMA's were going on across the street i wish i stayed in Downtown to see that. Well thats all for now, until my next blog! :)

Tropical Look

This look a lot of people like on my youtube channel. Its a very good summer look.
but since summer is over i still thought that i would go back and tell you what i used
to achieve this look.

PRODUCTS USED (just for the eyes):

- Cover Girls Tropical fusion quad

  • i used the yellow in the inner corners
  • then the orange right next to it and lightly blended where the two colors meet
  • the outer third use the green color and also blended where the two meet.
  • in the outer corner blue and blended it up into the crease over the green and blend it out.
  • as the highlight use a fine white shimmery eye shadow.

Here is the Makeup Tutorial:
