Makeup Time!!

I had di pleasure of visiting di Mac cosmetics store on South Beach di odda day wit meh friend. I had a makeup artist do a demo for me to see how di colors would look on me. My friend took some pictures & I am very happy wit how di makeup came out, however now I jus have to see how I will be duplicating it.
The makeup artist was awsome I asked him if I could bring him wit me & he did state dat he would but he is expensive. LOL!! How I wish I could afford him. He did however show me how to apply the primer, colors & eyeliner step by step. My best friend watched as she would like to do something similar but with the fuscia colors. I decided on the green jus b/c as you can see my eyes are green & I thought dat way my eyes & makeup may stand out more as where the fuscia would make my friend skin stand out(she has a beautiful skin color).
I am also planning on adding some jewels here by the brow & maybe not having the brow so dark & I may not do my makeup so dramatic for Monday but only for Tuesdayto compliment my costume. I deffinately recomend if anyone has di chance to go to a cosmetic store where they can have someone apply the colors on you & maybe give you ideas for dramatic eyes for Carnival. I really appreciated it & learned alot about mixin & matchin di colors. I am going to continue to play here wit my shadows & hopefully get it right. Pray for me!

Hey! The makeup looks great! I was thinking maybe you needed some pink but I understand why you went with all green. Just practice and I am sure you will be able to replicate the look.

Was the makup artist surprised that you wanted Carnival makeup?

He was a lil' surprised, he wanted to steal my Tribe brochure but I told him to order one & gave him di website. LOL!! I could tell he was excited to do di make up for such an event doh. I made add some pink jewels.

It does look really nice. I wish I could do that for Tuesday but I think I would just sweat though it too quickly!

I was planing to go to that mac store to get my makeup done. Can you tell me the guy's name that did your makeup? I won't steal your style (jokes) but I would like him to show me how to apply my carnival makeup correctly. I hope they have colors to match my costume.
