The power of makeup

Hi!

Makeup isn't something you should be ashamed of wearing . I feel like there has been a lot of labels to those who wear 'too much ' or 'too little' . I believe that there is no such thing as too much or too little, makeup has no rules. For example , if you wanted to have brown matte lips but you had nothing to use , who says you can't use an eyebrow pencil ? Or use your lipstick as a blush which is the best thing ever. There are no rules at all , that's why we experiment all the time !

I wear makeup to enhance features . The look I created isn't something , I would wear everyday but that doesn't stop you from wearing that to school or even to the shops.

Just do you.

I love experimenting with makeup and I do it all the time. I'm always sending snaps to my friends and I also did the majority of my friends and family's makeup. I'm not a professional! but that doesn't mean I can't do others .

Another thing I've heard people say is that 'makeup is not to impress ' this can be wrong or right depends on your perspective . I think wearing makeup to impress someone is not bad at all , it could just be a confidence booster and natural is pretty too.

FOUNDATION

I have dry skin and my face always looks a bit red so I like to wear warm toned foundation because it gives me a glow . I wear foundation sometimes to cover up any spots on my face that I know a lot of people will stare at. I know we're not perfect but I feel like using something like foundation temporarily could make you feel good for a few hours.

EYEBROWS

I make my eyebrows a bit thicker than usual because as you can see , I have thin eyebrows that have an awkward shape and as part of my religion , I'm not allowed to thread them . Therefore , I use a lot of concealer and in my eyebrow tutorial post , you can see that the tail of my eyebrows have to be drawn a bit thicker and etc. I change my eyebrows a lot but when I go to school, they are a lot closer to my natural brows.

EYE MAKEUP

I Loooooove eyeshadows . I collect way to many and I always love experimenting with different looks such as smoky eyes which are so much fun! I use eyeshadow to create a new crease with dark brown because I have hooded and small eyes so I like to make them a bit bigger. Then I use any shade for a base. Moreover , I also use eyeliner , ever since I discovered what eyeliner was in year 8 , I have been wearing it and my flicks have been terrible but it's all about development. I never knew how to apply anything , until I saw others do it on YouTube and friends and I'm still learning . I use eyeliner to make my eyes look a bit bigger and I always draw a thin line on my eye lid to make it look , I'm actually wearing it. This is because when I apply eyeliner normally it just looks like I'm wearing black eyeshadow so this technique works great for me .

LIPS

I don't think , I have a good reason to why I wear lipstick but I just like the choice of colours you have , to change your natural lip colour to something similar or different like orange ((which I have *guilty*)) .

I really hope you enjoyed reading this post ! I've got a question for you! Why do you like to wear makeup ? What's your favourite makeup product ?

Was I ready- for the University of Reading?

bbloggers

Hi!

On the third of October, I went with my best friend Cindy to the University of Reading. In this post , I'm going to explain this amazing and anxious trip.

Firstly , I had to wake up at 5:30 in the morning! This has been the earliest I have woken up to on a Saturday. Then I did my makeup.

For this makeup look, I created - I used the Revolution palette and I will go into more detail on my Instagram : tresnajma .

Secondly . We went on a train to London Euston then a few tubes.

We also stopped at Paddington station as well.

As you can tell, from from my face . I was in shock? About Paddington? I'm really not sure ...

Then me and Cindy walked a bit further and we saw this beautifully made window with a Yo sushi below haha.

Then we took a train to Reading.

We went down the escalators then found an ambassador at the bottom. The ambassadors at Reading are really helpful and friendly!

There was a Starbucks as well! I love coffee and I really like the Caramel Frapaccino! We didn't go to the Starbucks here but there was one at the Uni *gasp*

Below , as I said, was an ambassador with a red shirt who guided us to the bus. Then , she gave us a free ticket to use for the bus as well!

Thirdly , once we came out of the station , these were the first things I saw.

Afterwards , we went on the bus and took a bunch of pictures of the city! It's so lovely and has a lot of great things!

After we looked around the city , I concluded that the there was a lot of green spaces and history which I love because it's not as different to my hometown. At last!, we arrived to the Uni of Reading! The question was -was I ready?

I put this University as my first choice and after looking through the prospectus- I was so happy that this course had exactly what I wanted! This course that I chose : Consumer Behaviour and Marketing had everything I wanted. This course is more of a psychology type than the financial and mathematical courses I see at other unis which is something - I was trying to avoid. So as you can tell, I want this uni to be the best ...

We arrived safely and sound - as they say... This is a campus based university as you can tell by the map. At first , I thought I didn't mind what type of university it was. However , after visiting Westminster , I knew that campus based was for me. We followed a tour guide ambassador to bring us to the dome so we can register ourselves. As I walked through the campus - I was in love! The atmosphere at Reading is amazing.

We got through the dome by scanning the barcodes in our phones and then we were ready to look around!

I'm not sure what these places are called but they are really pretty !

I'm only posting this part this week and next week - I'll post part 2 because there's so much to see and talk about. I really hope you enjoyed 'reading' this post!
