Crown of Beauty

Hola!!

I am so EXCITED right now!!! :D I follow Kandee Johnson, a professional make-up artist, and she had a great discount on Crown Brushes last month. She doesn’t work for them or anything but she does use them. I took full advantage of the discount and ordered myself some awesome professional make-up brushes. I ordered them about two weeks ago and I got them in the mail TODAY!! J Woo-hoo!

This is the set I bought. There were three different pouches to choose from.

The only logical thing to do, then, is to drop everything and break them in! And that’s just what I did. J Now, I’m sure you’re thinking, “Hello Leo. You have a little girl to watch.” Well don’t you fret my pet. She was taking a nap. I ran down to “the dungeon” and opened my little package and became acquainted w/ my new friends. Normally, I’m not one to go all crazy over make-up. I basically wear eyeliner almost every day, and I’ll also wear eye shadows and mascara. That’s about the extent of my beautifying. I don’t wear foundation very often because I touch my face a lot so I figure it’s pointless. I don’t wear a lot of make-up mainly because I feel I don’t have the patience for it. I don’t want to spend a long time putting my face on. I want to just put a bit to look decent and then I’m done.

However, since I have been watching Kandee make-up has become more appealing and seemingly easier (thanks Kandee!). The point is, I went all out on my face today. I put on my liquid foundation, using my yellow-orange foundation brush, AND my powder foundation, followed by the usual crème eyeliner, eye shadows, and mascara. I even put on lipstick AND a bit of gloss. I don’t usually like gloss because I’ve had sticky ones that just feel gross. But I have a smooth, not-so-sticky one from Mary Kay. Most of my make-up is Mary Kay. I love it!

The completed look. I even curled my hair w/ a flat iron (which wasn’t as difficult as I thought).

I know that you can’t really tell what’s going on differently from my usual make-up venturing but it’s all listed above. And might I add, my new liner brush is AMAZING! I have had a few different ones, but this is BY FAR my favorite. I didn’t have to spend as much time winging the end and it was just one smooth movement. Seriously. THE best! I hope I don’t seem too conceited. At least not more than usual. ;)

Today’s song is one I got for free on itunes under the discovery downloads. I love that little thing they do each week. I got a lot of songs from that. J Anyways, this song should be the anthem for women everywhere! Men too but girls have more issues w/ this then guys seem to. Hope you like it! J Well my lovelies… have a great rest of your week and weekend! Be strong, be happy, and find the joy in your life!

The Pretty Rock- Keri Hilson

I can do the pretty girl rock rock
Rock to the pretty girl rock rock rock
Now what's your name?

My name is Keri, I'm so very
Fly oh my it's a little bit scary
Boys wanna marry looking at my derri-erre
You can stare but if you touch it I'ma bury

Pretty as a picture
Sweeter than a swisher
Mad cause I'm cuter than the girl that's wit’cha

I don’t gotta talk about it baby you can see it
But if you want I'll be happy to repeat it

My name is Keri, I'm so very
Fly oh my it's a little bit scary
Boys wanna marry looking at my derri-erre
You can stare but if you touch it I'ma bury

Pretty as a picture
Sweeter than a swisher
Mad cause I'm cuter than the girl that's wit’cha
I can talk about it cause I know that I'm pretty
And if you know it too then ladies sing it with me

Chorus

All eyes on me when I walk in,
No question that this girl's a 10
Don't hate me cause I'm beautiful
Don't hate me cause I'm beautiful
My walk my talk the way I dress
It's not my fault so please don't trip
Don't hate me cause I'm beautiful
Don't hate me cause I'm beautiful
Aye, now do the pretty girl rock rock rock
Do the pretty girl rock rock rock
Do the pretty girl rock rock
All my ladies do the pretty girl rock rock rock
Do the pretty girl rock rock rock
Do the pretty girl rock rock
Do the pretty girl rock

Now where you at?
If you're looking for me you can catch me
Cameras flashing, daddy's turned his head as soon as I passed him
Girls think I'm conceited cause I know I'm attractive
Don't worry about what I think why don't you ask him?

Get yourself together don't hate (never do it),
jealousy is the ugliest trait (don't ever do it)
I can talk about it cause I know that I'm pretty
And if you know it too then ladies sing it with me

Chorus

Get along with your pretty girl rock rock rock
Still show me your pretty girl rock rock rock
All my ladies do the pretty girl rock rock rock
Sing it with me now

All eyes on me when I walk in,
No question that this girl's a 10
Don't hate me cause I'm beautiful.
Don't hate me cause I'm beautiful.
My walk my talk the way I dress
It's not my fault so please don't trip
Don't hate me cause I'm beautiful
Don't hate me cause I'm beautiful [x2]
