I caved and finally did another scene tutorial! It's definitely not perfect, considering how high I had to do the angle because of my blindness, but I hope you can still get the idea of how I do my scenes!

One of the winners from my last Tumblr giveaway never contacted me back, so I'm having a quick giveaway again! Head over to Tumblr to check it out! [link]

[link] ‎BH Cosmetics Tumblr Giveaway! Woo!
If you don't have Tumblr, it's free to sign up. If you REALLY don't want to sign up for Tumblr, don't worry I'll be having another giveaway for Halloween soon! Now go crazy and reblog for 3 chances to win awesome prizes!

So, I created this tutorial. I'm pretty sure you should watch it. It could save your life. You know... if you're about to die because you don't have blue and pink eyeshadow on. This is important people! Always be prepared!

This facebook group has stolen my work. [link] They've removed my watermark and put their own. Could you guys do me a favour and harass them until they take it down? I'm so mad! I watermark my stuff for a reason!

**EDIT** Thank you guys so much! They've removed it off of their page! You guys are so awesome! I couldn't ask for better fans!

Heyyyy another video for you guys to check out! Woo colour!

Hello you lovely people! In case you missed it, here is my tutorial for my Aqua Eyes. Also be sure to check out the other videos I've put up recently!

How many of you are interested in more video tutorials from me? I'm thinking of doing a whole bunch of looks, if the demand is there!

It's the last day to vote! Like the picture here: [link] help me out in this contest! I'm currently about 1000 votes off of the top picture! Your help is extremely appreciated! ♥ Thanks for putting me up in second place!

Alright, it's that time again. I desperately need your help! I'm a finalist in Lime Crime's Snow White Makeup Contest [link] and I need your votes! I'm pretty far behind in votes, but if you guys could help me by "liking" the photo on facebook, I would be so so so thankful!

As for the last contest I was in with Makeupbee... you guys were able to bring me back up to the top 3, but sadly OCC didn't pick my look. But seriously, I'm so thankful that you guys were awesome enough to help me out! Remember, if you guys need help with contests, just let me know, I can help you guys too! (As long as you're not against me! Haha!)

THANKS GUYS!

I've found someone else that has done Disney on her eyes! Seriously... check her out! [link]

Please don't compare her designs to mine... her's are completely different and amazing in another way from mine!

I've currently dropped to 7th place for the Makeupbee Lip contest! [link] I need your help to keep me in the top 10! The top 10 will then be narrowed down to 3 finalists by OCC. All you have to do is either connect your facebook to it and hit the "luv" which is the heart on the left side of the picture. Or you can join the site and do the same! The site is wonderful and there are so many amazing designs up there! I will love you forever for any votes you guys can give me! Thanks so much for helping me get this far!

*edit* Oh my god! You guys have pushed me up to 3rd! I don't even know how to thank you all! Keep going! Don't stop!
