Looks don’t always have to be serious, this time I wanted to shoot for something quirky and fun! I actually didn’t design this look, I found it completely by accident on the internet, so I don’t claim credit for the design! The honour goes to some other talented individual 🙂
I’ve made a slight change to this chapter, at the request of my readers I’ve decided include a section on what tools I used to create my looks, aka brushes. Not sure if you will find it useful, let me know if you do / don’t~
I also suspect my videos will continue to experience some level of tweaking until I’ve settled into a style that suits me completely (and then I’ll probably change my mind anyways). I see my videos as organic, they will continue to evolve with me as my own abilities do, I took a lot of the feedback into consideration and will over time try and address each one where I see fit 🙂 For starters I’ve added the product name in the video each time they appear (so long as it is the first time). Hopefully you will find that more handy 🙂
And I will try my best to translate the tutorials into video from now on, but please understand that making videos (especially the way I do them, excessive cutting, voice over, music etc) takes much longer than just shooting some photos so if I miss a week here or there, go easy on me 🙂 Enjoy!

I loved your video! It’s quality production as well as lots of fun 🙂
This look is awesome too.
Aww thank you! I’m trying my best to amp up my video quality 🙂 You’re too kind <3
Love the look and you sound a lot more confident in the video this week. 🙂 It’s already a great video but I can see that it will just keep on getting better the more you get comfortable doing these. Inclusion of products in the video is awesome!
One thing, I dunno much about video production, but perhaps check the white balance of the video? For example, the photos you have here are awesome and the colours are really sharp, bright and modern. I can’t really pick what is different about the video, whether its coming out warm or cold (or maybe its the brightness/contrast?) but it has a different hue to it that’s making it have that kind of slightly dated quality (like when you watch a movie that’s a few years old, the colour is a bit off?) Hope you get what I mean. 🙂
Ooh, also we had a Easter tea party recently that was Alice in Wonderland themed and this look reminded me of it. Here’s some photos of it: http://www.hoobygroovy.com/blog/2011/5/20/alice-in-wonderland-easter-tea-party.html
Hey! Thanks so so much for the encouraging words 😀
I totally get what you mean, I’ll keep playing around with the camera and see what I can do. I know that YT itself seems to “darken” my videos a bit? Might be thanks to compression? As you can tell, I’m still pretty new to it all too XD; But I’m workingon it~ Thanks for the input, I really appreciate it 😀 <3
Love the photos from your Alice and Wonderland Party! Your makeup is fantastic, so deviously cute <3 😀
Niiicee!! I like this ^_^
Yay! Thank you 😀
The bits where you have the card spinning on your forehead are SOOOOO CUUUUUTE >3<
Hehe, I remember just mucking around at the point cause I was getting bored and uninspired, and surprise surprise it actually worked XD
This is awesome, love it!
Thank you ! 😀
Wow, I’m so going to play with my make-up now!
Looks like you had a blast!
Thanks for the comment darling!
Girl about Town XxX
Yay! Glad you enjoyed 🙂
You never cease to amaze me with your creativity and talent. Your video production quality is also outstanding especially since you have only started to make videos.
Thank you, this means so much to me because I work extremely hard at what I do. Literally I spend all my evenings, all my weekends perfecting (well… trying!) my craft to become better and better, and really comments like this just really help me get through those tough moments when I’m sleepy / tired from a long day at work and am not sure if I have the energy to do anything that evening <3 Thank you!
Celina, with fear of being rhetoric, I say it again “You never cease to amaze me ” …I mean each time I see your looks and I am in awe..<3 <3
Aww <3 <3 I'll never get sick of hearing it 😉 Thank you so much <3 <3
