Beauty of Autumn got me inspired...

Oh hi there! I am so sorry for not writing for the past few weeks, it's been so hectic and busy for the past few weeks, but I never forgot that I had to write! Better late than never right!


 ''It never stops to amaze me to see the major change in color and atmosphere!''

It's still autumn and the leaves are changing their color, and it gets dark very early in the day. I totally love the change that mother nature shows! It never stops to amaze me to see the major change in color and atmosphere! Not forgetting we can use the beautiful candles that give that tiny amount of romantic touch in light and warmth. 

So I got inspired by the colors of this season and wanted to share a simple yet elegant look that I created after buying some new shadows and a new lipstick at a budget store. I did go soft on the eyes and a bit dark on the lips.

For me this is a look I can daily do, but I can imagine that it might be a bit to much especially the lip color. So as the festive season is coming this look is also great for a party look with that fierce lippy.


I will put some pictures below the make-up look with some of the products that I used. This look can easily be done with all budget make-up.


Hope you girlies like this look, I hope to do more looks especially during Christmas and new years eve.


Enjoy and have a nice day lovelies!


xoxo

10 Beauty Guru's on Instagram that must be followed...

So the make-up world and the vision on it changed when instagram came into the cyber world! A simple social media app where you share your photos with a small text on it.
I created one a long time ago and what I love the most about it? Well the make-up community of course! 

There are so much talented and creative souls on Instagram..and great thing about them is they share their products and the way they do their beauty steps. So, not only you can just stare at the great make-up creations but you can also re-create some of the looks if you want!

''not only you can just stare at the great make-up creations but you can also re-create''

I actually wanted to share 10 of my most favorite beauty guru 's on Instagram which I think every make-up geek must follow :


What to say about Amra...Well in my opinion she is the best make-up artist on Instagram there is not a single look she creates that isn't breathtakingly beautiful. Unique thing about her is she creates all the looks on her own pretty face,  I hardly seen her doing make-up or looks on someone else. So being successful with make-up only on your self seems to be possible!  In the Summer of 2014 Amra even collaborated with Anastasia Soare and her Daughter Claudia and presented the Amrezy Palette which belongs to my daily essentials for a while now. Beside make-up looks she also gives you a sneak peak at her closet sometimes.





Tamanna Roashan also known as DressYourFace is ( as I like to call her) the Queen of Contouring and well, her hair and make-up creations are just fabulous. What I like about her the most is the fairytail looks she creates on the bride's. Being a Indian myself I love to stare at the photo's she shares of the pretty clients whom she magically turns in to beautiful princesses. Even Tamanna collaborated with Anastasia twice. Once as face of the contour palette and recently she launched the Tamanna Palette which I still am dying to get hold of.






This pretty eyed Beauty called Maya lives in Tanzania which is in Africa. She is a self taught make-up artist in a part of the world where make-up is not very well known and the availability of it is very little. Despite these facts she managed to made a name for her self. As the above mentioned artist even Maya has collaborated with Anastasia and has a palette named 'Maya Mia Palette'. So if you want to re-create her looks not only she has a instagram account but you can follow her on Youtube as well!



Huda Kattan is a successful beautyblogger/vlogger she was born and raised in the United States but later on moved to the UAE - Dubai. She has a blog of her own http://hudabeauty.com/ and has a successful youtube channel as well where she gives several beauty tips, reviews and very use full DIY's! Great thing about her instagram account is, that despite the huge amount of followers she daily shares a bunch of her favorite beauty creations by other make-up artist.




With over 3 million followers this Vegas based Latina called Naomi must be the most succesfull beauty guru on Instagram. Beside her classic Hollywood face and such a sweet voice she tops in what she does as she is a permanent blogger for Cosmo for Latina's. She not only tops the make-up looks, but also isn't afraid to complete her whole look with always a pretty hair style to go with it. Like Huda, despite her huge amount of followers she maintains to share her favorite picks on a daily basis and share them on her page!





This beauty creates incredibly beautiful looks from smokey, holiday, Halloween, celebrity to a full on neutral look.I love the the wigs she tries on in diffrent colours and the Henna showcases are just incredible. I haven't seen a non-asian / middle east person having so much love for henna, and even being a talented henna applier! Stop by her Instagram to experience her talent and for more detailed creations visit her youtube channel.



So in my opinion when I landed on Desi Perkins page I thought for a minute I found Jennifer Lopez. I haven't seen anyone else that resembles JLo so much. Desi is a gorgeous beautiful make-up artist with classic looks which you can recreate in details by visiting her youtube channel. She is fun, sweet, beautiful and so helpfull in all her videos. 




This blue eyed beauty is just hilarious. I have no other words for her. Her make-up looks are so pretty and if you don't like it ( not been there yet LOL), well she doesn't care. This beauty creates several looks, from party looks to ( I have no clue how to explain it but there I go..) ARTist make-up, in which you can indicate the amount of talent she has. Head over to her youtube channel and you will come to know how funny she actually is. The fact that she sometimes starts a make-up look without thinking by forehand what she will create is one of the things I adore and love about her.




I am so proud to say that this talented woman is from the Netherlands. I just love her work, what she does is litterly using make-up and do magic as her work in my opinion is ART. Lately she is trying to enter #BackstagewithPatMcGrath contest for which she is creating looks that are breathless! This girl's work is to admire! 



Samer Khouzami

I think there is not much more I can tell you about Samer Khouzami as I created a separate blog about him and his masterclass. As I named Tamanna the queen I name Samer the king of contouring.
