Kiss/Broadway Nails and MY FIRST CONTEST!!!

So I was contacted by Kiss because they saw my review on Broadway French Tip nails a while back. They sent me some of their new products to try out and I must say they are quite trendy .

Ok the first product is the All or One Artificial Nail Remover. The tub is filled with acetone and is seperated into 2 sections. You can either soak all your nails in the acetone or just one finger. Neat idea huh?! and through out time when the acetone gets dirty you can empty it and refill it!
These are the Fashion Diva Stickers. You get over 400 stickers in one package. I was amazed in how many there were. It's easy to apply also, just carefully peel and apply on your nail. I suggest a top coat for maximum staying power.
The first box on the left is Harajuku inspired. These comes with tabs for an easier application process. The fun part about these is that you can mixmatch the nail colors.
The second box consist of white and yellow peace signs on a pink french tip. Very cute!!
These also have tabs for an easy application process.
Both boxes come with  nail glue.
These nails are pretty awesome! They have a cute design on a white french tip, but once you go in the sun they change to a pink french tip. How cool!!!
These are the Fashion Diva Express Nails. They don't come with glue just the nails itself. They also do not have tabs on them so it was a little more challenging to not get glue on my fingers.
I tried on one of the nail sets and I chose the Fashion Express's because They looked perfect for a rave I was going to =) The way I applied them was first I sized them up to my nails. Some times I had to file the edges because it didn't fit perfectly and that is okay to do. I put glue on my natural nail first and then all over the artificial nail. I push the nail down as close to cuticle first then towards the tip of my nail. Then I roll my finger over the whole nail for secure staying power. For extra security I put a drop of glue on the under side of my nail if there is a gap in between my natural and artificial. I say the more the glue the better your off. If glue spills out on to the side onto your skin thats ok when it becomes dry it will fall off after a few washes or when you rub at it.

Sunday IMATS Pictures



Alot of people ask what school I go to so this is it. Elegance International <3

Enkore <3 Youtube makeup videos definitely played a big role in my decision in becoming a makeup artist. I found a hidden talent I never knew I had. =)
Real...sigh... I go to a makeup show and i take a picture with a guy that has nothing to do with makeup. Why was he there anyways??? ahah

For my first time at IMATS I must say I wasn't that amazed. I thought it was going to be huge and amazing. I left within 2 hours. I'll probably go next year too just to go but for 2 years I have been estatic to go to this tradeshow but I think I just hyped my hyped myself up.

I'm quite excited for IMATS coming up. Are you going?! This will be my first time going so expect me to be buying the whole place. I was thinking of going both days but I'll just be going Sunday. When I used to live in Florida I would see Youtube videos on IMATS and get so jealous of the people who went, and now I finally get to go! My top booths to go to are Naked cosmetics and Crown brushes. You can't get enough brushes. One more week guys! I can't contain my self!!! =)

I'm going bald.

Heyyy peepsss!! I'm now in Flim class and this will be my last course in my program =(. I graduate in July and I'm not ready to at all. I love going to school knowing im playing with makeup all day.The first thing we've learned in class was to put on a bald cap properly. It's a very difficult makeup to do. Blending the edges and mixing a perfect color to blend into the skin is very difficult for me but I managed. I was actually the class demo in the morning and this is what I looked like in a baldcap.
