Back to Blogging! + info

Hey everyone,

A lot has happened in my world since posting my last blog, a year ago. Let's face it, blogging hasn't been much of a priority for me. However my beauty Vlog, youtube.com/bbeautymarkd most certainly has been. I have decided to pretty much revamp my blog in order to give more depth to my video blogs, as well as talk about more of my artwork. Also, I've been in new business ventures, that I am excited to share. As a young 25 year old creative woman who is excited about life, sometimes you just want to talk about it! And here is yet another platform.

I will be posting blogs that correspond with the content of the BBEAUTYMARKD Vlog videos such as extra tips and tricks, face charts, and more in depth information. Sometimes I find it very hard to say all that I would like in a short video. I love to educate my viewers with my acquired knowledge from being in the field. Let's be honest, I tend to skip over videos of people that talk too much. So here is a source if you are looking for more information.

As far as my business, HOM Artistry homartistry.com, I have been continuing to do art orders as well as freelance Makeup Artistry work. I plan to blog more about these business ventures. Sometimes I think that people may have forgotten that first I am an Artist. All my training started as an painter/drawer and that transfers into my Makeup Artistry. I think writing about my art and reflecting on art around me will help take me back to my days of study when my ideas were most vivid and I was constantly inspired.

Also, an exciting side note! You can visit me for services such as, Makeup Application & Lessons, Lash Extensions, Skin Care Treatments, and Facial Waxing in Berkeley, CA!! I would love to have you come into the salon to visit!

NYX FACE AWARDS + bbeautymarkd

Hello Everyone!
I am so excited to tell you all about a contest in which I am a Contestant in! The Contest is called NYX Face Awards by one of my favorite Cosmetic lines, NYX Cosmetics!
Right now there are 30 Contestants competing in order to win Title: National Beauty Vlogger of the Year, $25,000, and basically get your foot in the door as a Professional Makeup Artist!!
Right now all Contestants have submitted the 1st Challenge video: 80's Retro, which will narrow down the 30 Contestants to 20 Contestants.
For this 80's retro challenge I immediately thought of Pop Art, as an artist I love to look to artwork to apply to how I want to create makeup looks! Keith Haring was an amazing Pop Artist that made many paintings during the 80s. I actually made this poster below for the background set up! =)
I was also so extremely happy to receive all the goodies in the picture from NYX! It was such a lovely surprise!

Also, I LOVE making face charts, if you didn't know. Here is a picture of the Face Chart that I created for the look:
I changed it a little bit in the final look.

Voting is open today up until Monday the 23rd. Each Person can vote 3 times a day for those 5 days.
