So, this isn't really a tutorial. I'm pretty sure most girls know how to use their make up and I'm no pro, but if I were that would be a awesome job! I do enjoy being a girl and all that entails. I love playing dress up and getting ready and looking as good as I can. I don't spend large amounts of $$$ on make up for name brand things. Doesn't mean I have a problem with the expensive stuff either. I just use what I can afford at the time. I mostly buy the normal stuff at the grocery store and it works just fine. It takes me about 20-30 minutes to get ready and sometimes a little longer if I'm trying something new or going out somewhere fancy. Not everyone wears makes up and I certainly wear a lot, but that doesn't mean that one is superior to the other. I find that true beauty comes from the inside. I'm grateful for the women in my own life who not only are beautiful, but very strong, loving and inspiring. Just thought since I'm being real on here Id show you what I use and what works best for me.

| Every girl MUST have a bag to hold all her make up. |
 |
| The basics |
 |
| Can't believe I am actually posting a picture of me without make up. I must be crazy OR just really comfortable with myself :) |
 |
| I use mousse for concealer. It's in between powder and liquid. I use a sponge to apply and this stuff lasts me a long time. |
 |
| First steps. |
 |
| Blush and bronzer. |
 |
| I have cheeks! |
 |
| Eye shadow. |
 |
| haha. Gotta love my facial expressions. I generally don't do such crazy colors like today either. Mostly browns, but sometimes a a change is exciting. |
 |
| Eye liner. I prefer liquid. It goes on so much smoother and doesn't smear through out the day/ |
 |
| Getting closer.. Just need to fill in my eye brows add a dash of mascara and apply the finishing touches of lip stick/gloss. |
 |
| I use this brown liner to fill in the empty spaces in my eyebrows. It also helps darken and shape them. |
 |
| Mascara |
 |
| Lip Gloss |
 |
| Lipstick. Finding the right shade is important. |
 |
| Side shot |
 |
| Up close, I use to wish my eyes were blue, but I've embraced the green.:) Also don't mind my blood shot look. I had a double date on Friday that went late and then woke up early to go running. (it gets to hot the later you go) |
 |
| Tada! Hair is dry, make is applied, outside and ready to play!! |
So how bout you-Do you like wearing make up? How long does it take you to get ready? What products do you use?

You're gorgeous, even without makeup. Rude! ;) I LOVE to wear makeup...even though some days I only have time for a few swipes of mascara. But when I have the time, you can bet there's some color on my eyelids! :) Also, I vote that you do a tutorial on how you color in your eyebrows...because I'd love to learn and yours always look fabulous.
Thanks Jess :) I've always loved the way you do your make up.. in fact I believe I once sent you a message asking what mascara do you use becuase those "few swipes" go on beautifully! I'm sure I could show how do do fill/darken your eyebrows, but yours always look perfectly shaped! Maybe we could exchange.. you teach me how to shape, Ill teach you how to fill ;)
