hard at work
I am hard at work trying to get this up and running as soon as possible. It took me a long time to settle into my decision that photography needs to be at the forefront of my attention right now, at least until bar results. I love blogspot. It's been my home and my virtual dumping grounds for at least 5 years. This was my platform to learn about myself and i'm sad to see it go, but it's time to evolve and start anew. As you can see, the banner has changed from soyouwanna to my own personal brand name. I might be nostalgic and change it back when my site is up and running, and keep this as a souvenir. I'm keeping the same general layout, but things will be cleaner, and I'll have a new platform to show my work. I hope you'll continue to follow and thanks for the patience!!!

summer colors and fragrances
The pink Maybelline Natural Glow is my favorite. When i do heavy liner, blush, and a light base for daily use, the natural lip color is perfect. It’s also one of the best moisturizers in a lipstick I’ve found yet. The Revlons are also really fun for summer [mine is coral and fuchsia]. The rest are variations of pinks from Estee Lauder that i sometimes add on top, but smudge away with a napkin. The gold is fun for nights out.
My favorite parfums for the summer are the following: gucci envy me, apothia if, versace crystal noir, dolce & gabbana light blue, and estee lauder emerald dream. I like them in that order too. I haven’t tried anything new recently, but these have been my favorites for a long time, with the exception of the versace. I tend to wear parfums rather than eau de toilette because I love the distinct fragrance that complements my body lotion, and doesn’t wear off in an hour. I feel like I get my money’s worth more with parfums, and since they smell so good, why not?
Fave liners are Chanel. Not that I don’t love my trusty cheap Maybelline too, it’s just that when I want something really simple and clean, won’t smudge or crack…Chanel is the way to go.I bought this in Paris, and it comes with a smudger end as well as a sharpener that is amazing. My mascara I found in Turkey and it’s a brand called Lumenein Natural Code. I bought it because I wanted a mascara that is very light, and just makes my lashes longer but not necessarily thicker. Since I was traveling, I wanted the simplest makeup to enhance my eyes to show how happy I am!
