She's is the one called Sailor Moon!

So recently.. (Last week I believe), Sailor Moon Crystal premiered. And while I had my notions about it, I thoroughly enjoyed that the series was getting a reboot.

Here's is a Sailor Moon Make-Up Tutorial.

In the name of the moon! Let's begin lol...

First, start with your foundation routine. I normally use Covergirl's Ready Set Gorgeous Foundation in shade 315 with LA Pro Concealors in either Fawn or Toffee. 

I also fill in my brows using an old cheap brown eyebrown pencil (*purchased at beauty supply*) and NYX All Over Concealor to clean up my brown. I then set my entire face with MAC's Studio Fix Powder in NC45.

Next using NYX's Eye Shadow Base in White. Cover your entire lid. Up to your eyebrow and lightly smooth it out with your finger. The white base will ensure the vibrancy of the colors we're using. 

Next..

Taking a bright blue eyes shadow, blend it out right above the line of your crease. (Avoiding getting on your lid.) If you have mono-lids. Put it where you normally would your crease shadows. Blend out! I used the color Booty call from the Naked 2 pallet to blend out the blue closer to the eyebrow.

Next add a hot pink or pink to your lead and a white to the inner corner of your eye. Blending the colors together the best way you can. To blend the pink into the blue I used a dark purple color.

Line your lid! A heavy cat-eye works best!

Line the lower waterline of your eyes as well. (*I also went back with the White base and on-top of that put a purple color and to blend the pink and white added a faint gold.)

Coat your lashes with mascara, and if wanted add false lashes for that added flair. 

Finally, add a light pink lipstick to your lips. (If you have bigger lips, you might want to add a a concealer around them to make them appear smaller and only fill in where you did not apply concealer.) 

And finally your transformation is complete!

And now I'm off to destroy the nega-force!

Hope you enjoy this look as much as I had fun making it. 

Hope you give it a try and find it useful! It can always be toned down to wear for everyday.

Alright moonies I'm out!

Pour it up, pour it up.

The last time I blogged was in November of last year.. and wow... have I been busy. It's 2013 and the first month of the New Year is almost over! Crazy how times flies. ⊙_☉

Anyways, this post will just be a quick review on the months missed that I haven't blogged.

Well first off, I am dating again (actually have been dating him since October) we're 4 months strong (almost 5). He's a pretty rad guy. Such a sweetheart. More on him later. (◡‿◡✿)

My freelancing work has been on and off but since the new year has started it's been going crazy! I've been so booked lately that this is the first time I've had a free moment to myself to sit down and breathe and think.

Random side note.. I took my glorious septum piercing and I cannot get it back in. m(><)m

Here's some of my latest work, modeling: (From oldest to newest. Click to view it larger.)

A little fall never hurt anyone.

Well how do, blogger world. I haven't blogged in a months time so here goes a mini-post.

Anyways, it was nice fall day today - About 72 degrees which was a nice change from the previous colder weather. I decided, after working out, to take advantage of the rest of the remaining daylight - grabbed my little sis and set out on a trek to the nearby school playground. And here's the end result.

Back to blogging.

Well hello there blogger world. Some of you may remember be, and some of you may not. Regardless, I'm basically going to reintroduce myself. I used to go by Dei, some of you maybe allowed to call me that still but now I'd rather go by the name of which I was given - Chanel.

I'm currently 21, I live in Maryland and I am a freelance model --  basically enjoying my life while I can at the moment. The last time I ever wrote a blog post, was back in February of this year. I was going through so much and have been through so much in the past 9 months I've been away from the open blog world. I'll keep it short and simple. I was broke, depressed and going through a crappy relationship with a guy I know now cared nothing really about me. He cheated on me repeatedly and that played on a lot of my self-esteem. To this day, I can still openly admit it still does but, I can say I am free of his tyranny and I'm proud to be a single person slowly but surely finding out who I am in this world. Remember me now?

This was me a few months ago. Sad, confused and utterly in love. Typical problems for a girl, no?

And this is me now.. Still confused to the world. Still in love with the idiot. But, more me and more free!

 
The above is just one of many recent photos. I am more inclined to take photos of myself now. My self esteem is no longer... shattered. Still a bit cracked, but ultimately not shattered. I now have a total 4 tattoos and a septum piercing. My hair has gone from red, to blonde, to bangs, to wavy, to purple, to straight, to curly, to wavy, bangs and everything I can think of:

Just my looks from April til Now.

I love how versatile I can be now and I haven't stopped yet. I've bought so many clothes over the past months it doesn't even make any sense, and I could finally afford a new phone! I travelled a lot (mainly back and forth between D.C, home, NY, Baltimore and I went to Miami once.) Things, despite all the bad that has happened, has gotten a lot sweeter. And I bought this baby:

My name is Shio! Nice to meet you. I'm evil to my mommy. But I still wuv her.

 

 

I believe I definitely have a lot more to blog about now. Less to complain about, more fun to be had is now my motto. I'm a bit more open minded about things and my head is a lot clearer! And I'm glad to be back in the blogging world. I'm off now to go read blogs that I haven't read in months, discover new ones and just relax.
