What's up for grabs?
This month I will be giving away a #2 and #5 brush. The #2 brush is perfect for applying under eye makeup. It can be used to apply concealer flawlessly or a very soft smoky blend of colors under the bottom lashes. The #5 brush is a wide paddle brush, think of MAC 239 but wider and a little thicker. The brush is great for applying your lid color and highlight color.

As you all know I just held a sigma makeup brush giveaway. There were over 70,000 comments! Woah! That’s a lot of time you guys spent at your computer commenting in hopes of winning. I know there were some people that said it was unfair to comment more than once but honestly, I knew people were going to do it anyways. For those that felt this giveaway was unfair, the next one will be a single entry giveaway. My giveaways will not always be the same; they will change up from time to time so always read the directions.
Well, with the help of random.org the winner was chosen this afternoon. I have emailed the winner and she should be responding very shortly. If I hear no response from her in 5 days another winner will be chosen.
the winner is:
awdacity@...........com
Let’s congratulate her on winning. I know you girls spent long periods of time in front of your computer entering but maybe you’ll win in the next giveaway. This isn’t the last giveaway I will be holding, there will be many more. The next one is either a hotmiamistyles.com giveaway or a scentiments.com giveaway. Either one that I review first will sponsor it.
Ok well babes, I’m outta here! Time to finally roll out of bed and post a short video on YouTube about the winners :)
Love you
vanes

CLOSED Sigma Makeup Brush REVIEW/GIVEAWAY
Heyyyy,
Finally, I was able to review the amazing sigma makeup brushes I received a couple weeks ago…
They are simply incredible. The quality of these brushes is just out of this world. We all know how great MAC brushes are but we also know how pricey they are as well. I myself do not have all the MAC brushes but I have a few. They are great quality and get the job done right.
Now, these sigma brushes you’ve heard of from many gurus on YouTube are either comparable to MAC or better. Yes, I said better! I know, I know you can’t believe some one said that but to be 100% truthful, sigma has really made great brushes at an affordable price. They’re not dirt cheap but when you buy the brush kits, they end up cost fairly cheap per brush.
Ok ok ok… I know why you’re here; it’s for the giveaway lol. Ok got it! Here we go again, yayy!!!!
To enter :
♥ you must follow my blog
(Make sure your public profile on blogger says you follow my blog)
♥ Write your name
♥ Write “I would LOVE to try out Sigma Makeup brushes!”
♥ and your email, please
Enter as many times as you want. The more you enter the better your chances are to win.
What’s at stake?
You will receive 12 professional quality brushes for a complete makeover! Everything you need to apply makeup to eyes and face.
A value of $89 is yours if you’re randomly chosen.
GOOD LUCK TO EVERYONE!
love you,
Vanes

Double Rainbow!
Hey guys,
So as I battled through 5 hours of traffic yesterday (-_-) in the pouring rain, my wonderful boyfriend and I saw this beautiful sight! I have never seen 2 rainbows in my entire life. We drove all over the world and back yesterday and we were finally in Downtown LA. The pouring rain was finally easing up and the clouds finally drifted away, the sun started to shine bright. My beautiful LA sky started to turn back to its gorgeous blue color. Once I saw that, all was well in the hood (literally lol).
Any who, I just wanted to share the pretty rainbows I saw!
I filmed a sigma makeup brush review today so I shall edit that tonight and hope to post it right after. I can’t tell you enough how much I love the brushes. They are honestly comparable or even better than MAC! The quality of the brushes is just unbelievable. They are worth every penny and more some. I highly recommend them!
Hmm, while I am sharing about an upcoming video I might as well post what’s coming up soon now that my camera is fixed. *woohoo*
Up coming videos in no order:
♥ sigma makeup brush review/giveaway
♥ sigma makeup makeup review/tutorial
♥ Valentines Day look (I might be too late lol)
♥ konad nail stamp
♥ collective haul for jan/feb
Well guys, I will be posting the giveaway rules in a little…
Love you,
Vanes

• katazynak1109@.......com
• spooky923@........com

Congrats to all the winners. If you noticed there are 6 winners. I accidentally chose 6 winners but the owner of UNII cosmetics was fine with the extra winner so yaaaaaay! Haha how awesome are they? I was worried there was going to be some kind of problem but UNII cosmetics really hooked it up! haha. They're a great company and I would suggest them over and over again.
Ok lovers I will see you with a Sigma brush review and another giveaway very soon!
Love,

REVIEW: Hard Candy
So as I walk through the cosmetic aisles of Walmart, this brand called Hard Candy caught my eye. I have never heard of it or seen it so I decided to try at least something out from the line.
I grabbed the concealer palette because I’m a concealer nut and it had so many choices in the palette for $6. Too bad it sucked. It was too creamy and it felt like lotion with some little color. I was very disappointed in the brand but I only tried one product they offer. If you have any suggestions I’ll try them out and maybe it’s my new favorite brand.
Any who, here’s the video:
I will see you guys soon!

sad, sad, sad :(
So... ugh I hate to say this but the sponsor for the give away just pulled out.
They had to retract from sponsoring the products because the palettes had a small problem. The company and manufacturer are working hard on fixing the glitch. They will contact me and update me on the progress of the palettes. Hopefully its fixed fast and I can hold the give away for you guys.
I just feel bad for the company because the owner is a sweet girl. She’s been working hard on her products and for this to come out of nowhere is heart breaking to me. I also feel bad because I promised something but I won’t be able to deliver it yet... soon, but not yet.
I hope you guys understand. :/

old brush, new use!
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!
now 2009 was an ok year for me. i met the most amazing man ever and i transferred to a Cal State but the rest of the year sucked. you can read about it in an older post if youd like to hear more. lets hope this new year is AMAZING. i hope for this year to bring us all health, happiness and a boom in the economy lol.
ok now that we got the new years cheer out of the way :P time to get down to some bloggin today.
well, for new years eve i was able to freelance again. OH HOW IVE MISSED FREELANCING! lol. first off i met up with my beautiful cousin annjanett and did a soft tan smokey eye. she has small eye space and doesnt wear makeup often so i didnt want to over power her beautiful green eyes. after i finished up with annjanett, i drove to my next appointment. my beautiful friend mayra!
mayra has my favorite lid space and eye shape. she isnt afraid of color and heavy smokey eyes. her dress was all black with a zipper, umm can you say SILVER AND BLACK. we went dark on her eyes for that super dramatic eye and to finish it off i gave her that "bro hoe" look. smokey eye with soft pink lips lol.
HERES WHERE I FINALLY GET TO MY REASON FOR BLOGGING!!!!
when i applied her lipstick i didnt use a lip brush. I HATE LIP BRUSHES WITH A PASSION! theyre always gunky and sticky and just nasty. the only time i wish i had a lip brush is when i use red lipstick but come on, when the heck do i use red lipstick? lol almost never, duh!
so i grabbed my synthetic concealer shading brush from coastal scents (http://www.coastalscents.com/cfwebstore/index.cfm/product/1490_37/synthetic-concealer-shading-brush.cfm). ive had this brush for about a year now and never really used it. its bigger than the 239 and it worked PERFECT for applying lipstick and lip gloss. the brush held color great and applied the products perfectly. and to wash it, it was a sinch. i just used some dawn dish soap and it was clean as a whistle in a few seconds.
heres what it looks like and its $4.39
ok so i just wanted to let you guys know my new discovery and maybe itll be useful for you guys :)
love

so i grabbed my synthetic concealer shading brush from coastal scents (http://www.coastalscents.com/cfwebstore/index.cfm/product/1490_37/synthetic-concealer-shading-brush.cfm). ive had this brush for about a year now and never really used it. its bigger than the 239 and it worked PERFECT for applying lipstick and lip gloss. the brush held color great and applied the products perfectly. and to wash it, it was a sinch. i just used some dawn dish soap and it was clean as a whistle in a few seconds.
heres what it looks like and its $4.39
ok so i just wanted to let you guys know my new discovery and maybe itll be useful for you guys :)
love
vanes
