I know in my earlier makeup crazed days most considered Wet n Wild to be a last resort when purchasing makeup. Some thought it to be of poor quality, yet I knew that they had a little something special and the world would soon catch on. Fast forwarding to 2010 and beyond, Wet n Wild  has/is the new "IT" brand for haulers worldwide!

I'm so glad that I was able to pull off such a major event as my amateur debut. I still see and think about some things that I could have done differently, but the day went beautifully. I'm glad that my cousin had the confidence in me that I didn't have in the beginning. Man, I'm so glad that I pressed and endured my butterflies. Even though, I had  a little time left to rush and do my makeup, I still came out such a cutie without dimming the light of the bride. I received so many compliments at the end of the ceremony and reception from family and friends. I only wished I would've carried my business cards in my bustier, but I imagine they wouldn't have lasted after all they were made of card stock (hehehe)!!! Next stop, definitely pushing myself into networking.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Before and After&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_IouBa0GuL2A/TDfu5drCoeI/AAAAAAAAAi8/wjprEoA8C34/s1600/C1K+%40+Work.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 174px; height: 200px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_IouBa0GuL2A/TDfu5drCoeI/AAAAAAAAAi8/wjprEoA8C34/s200/C1K+%40+Work.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5492120941586719202" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_IouBa0GuL2A/TDfvxs8_01I/AAAAAAAAAjM/ODQB_DO56CY/s1600/Dani+Bear.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 133px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_IouBa0GuL2A/TDfvxs8_01I/AAAAAAAAAjM/ODQB_DO56CY/s200/Dani+Bear.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5492121907761238866" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_IouBa0GuL2A/TDfvx-eOWzI/AAAAAAAAAjU/M9fYbX31eRU/s1600/Dani+n+B.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 152px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_IouBa0GuL2A/TDfvx-eOWzI/AAAAAAAAAjU/M9fYbX31eRU/s200/Dani+n+B.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5492121912464005938" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bride&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_IouBa0GuL2A/TDfwjtx5YbI/AAAAAAAAAjk/Xusw1SrTaHo/s1600/LynBride.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 175px; height: 200px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_IouBa0GuL2A/TDfwjtx5YbI/AAAAAAAAAjk/Xusw1SrTaHo/s200/LynBride.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5492122766976573874" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_IouBa0GuL2A/TDfwjknWyjI/AAAAAAAAAjc/d4aCGAsgl4k/s1600/C1K%27s+!st+Bride.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 175px; height: 200px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_IouBa0GuL2A/TDfwjknWyjI/AAAAAAAAAjc/d4aCGAsgl4k/s200/C1K%27s+!st+Bride.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5492122764516444722" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1927409770893564275-9083024519817888178?l=makeupclique.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1927409770893564275/posts/default/9083024519817888178'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1927409770893564275/posts/default/9083024519817888178'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://makeupclique.blogspot.com/2010/07/shots-from-wedding.html' title='Shots from the Wedding'/><author><name>Creative1k</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-XjzPdly0Djw/TpXYtoyhMaI/AAAAAAAAAoI/JhREW3GJ640/s220/DSC04329.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_IouBa0GuL2A/TDfu5drCoeI/AAAAAAAAAi8/wjprEoA8C34/s72-c/C1K+%40+Work.jpg' height='72' width='72'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1927409770893564275.post-5733561468809393948</id><published>2010-03-17T14:36:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-07-09T21:12:06.655-07:00</updated><title type='text'>First Job- Wedding Day Jitters</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_IouBa0GuL2A/TDfzEXOd9EI/AAAAAAAAAjs/pd43znyT4OE/s1600/butterflies.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 175px; height: 200px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_IouBa0GuL2A/TDfzEXOd9EI/AAAAAAAAAjs/pd43znyT4OE/s200/butterflies.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5492125526881334338" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ok, so my little cousin's big day is finally here and what's my greatest demise? Butterflies in my tummy, I can hardly get everything that I have together, which is definitely more than little but not a lot by the standards of makeup artist world. So here I am setting up nervous about doing her bridal look, and I get asked to do several more people. Ok, the butterflies begin to move a hundred times faster. So I'm doing my best to work, as I know that there are other artist coming in to do their clients as well. It's about 10 of us, so we're going to be working most of the afternoon. I'm particularly nervous because I'm maid of honor as well. I'll be sure to post pictures, after wards.

I just saw some of my fellow bloggers at the IMATS LA 2009. Oh how I wished to be in attendance.

Well she's published a book that is geared to assisting the fresh and new beginning artist as well as the pro artiste. Let's look at a sample of what Bobbi has  to stay in her &lt;span style="color: rgb(102, 0, 204);"&gt;Top 10 Makeup Tips from the Makeup Manual&lt;/span&gt;:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;•  Make sure foundation is yellow-based.  Everyone has yellow undertones in their skin. Pink-based foundations look like a mask on most people.  Only 1 per cent need a pink tone:  those who sunburn even in the shade.  Foundation should not change the colour of the face but simply even out the tone.                           &lt;p&gt;•  When applying foundation, apply thinly then let it settle for a few minutes to see the true effect.  Then blend in more on the zones where it’s needed.&lt;/p&gt;                           &lt;p&gt;•   To avoid powder build-up on oily skin, use an oil-blotting paper before  touching up.&lt;/p&gt;                           &lt;p&gt;•   If you have thin lips, choose light to medium lipcolour shades, as dark  shades have a minimising effect.  &lt;/p&gt;                           &lt;p&gt;•   Soften too-harsh brow colour by pressing loose powder onto the brows  with a powder puff.&lt;/p&gt;                           &lt;p&gt;•  Dark circles look darker when liner is applied on the lower lash line.  Bring concealer up to the lash line, and use only mascara on the lower lashes.&lt;/p&gt;                           &lt;p&gt;•   You can curl lashes by pressing them up with your fingers as the mascara  dries.&lt;/p&gt;                           &lt;p&gt;•  When you remove make-up, dry the face with the softest natural-fibre towels you can find.  Pat the face dry.  Rubbing or hard wiping creates small abrasions on the skin’s surface, causing irritation, redness and even swelling.&lt;/p&gt;                           &lt;p&gt;•  Fade overly dark self-tan colour by exfoliating the skin in the shower with a washcloth or loofah.  Then, thoroughly clean the skin with cold cream or baby oil.  Some self-tanners can be removed with lemon juice.  Fix streaks by applying an additional light coat of self-tanner on the lightest parts of the skin.&lt;/p&gt;                           &lt;p&gt;•  And for brides:  use a moisturiser that will prepare the skin for make-up, but avoid sunblocks and sunscreens that can give a ‘flash off’ to make-up.  They reflect too much light under flash photography, resulting in an over-exposed shot.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I hope these tips provided a little assistance or clarity for anyone beginning in makeup artistry.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Tootles!!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1927409770893564275-5299205293892328282?l=makeupclique.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1927409770893564275/posts/default/5299205293892328282'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1927409770893564275/posts/default/5299205293892328282'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://makeupclique.blogspot.com/2009/03/bobbi.html' title='Bobbi&apos;s Top 10'/><author><name>Creative1k</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-XjzPdly0Djw/TpXYtoyhMaI/AAAAAAAAAoI/JhREW3GJ640/s220/DSC04329.JPG'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1927409770893564275.post-3088374239319266314</id><published>2009-03-19T10:12:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-03-26T09:18:25.999-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='handbags'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='designers'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='forums'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='purses'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='purse items'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='essential belonging'/><title type='text'>What's a Chick to do?</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_IouBa0GuL2A/Scuqw7EmWQI/AAAAAAAAAbM/cCjczMXvU1M/s1600-h/footer_logo.gif"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 187px; height: 147px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_IouBa0GuL2A/Scuqw7EmWQI/AAAAAAAAAbM/cCjczMXvU1M/s320/footer_logo.gif" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5317531542508427522" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ok, my latest inquiry is what's a chick to do when it comes down to selecting the essential items to go inside her purse and makeup bag for everyday use.

It first hit the press around the summer of 2008. Photos were released earlier this month and the shoes are said to range anywhere from $800  to $1000.  I wish I could have been a fly on the wall for that meeting. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm wondering if Kanye understands what pressure this will put on the average folks who want to step their game up. Hell, I can only imagine to the lengths that most everyday people will go to, just to be the first to step fresh in them bad boys. Although,  I don't foresee any low budget hustlas sporting them, but I'm almost 100 % positive that the Dope Boys have already placed their orders for them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Another hat is taken off to Mr. West, for he keeps stepping up his $$$ game.

However, I ended up at &lt;a style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;" href="http://www.sephora.com/"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;Sephora&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;, and to my surprise they were offering free &lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_IouBa0GuL2A/Sb6q7nipkzI/AAAAAAAAAZk/KyOYrcjBPnk/s1600-h/kim+015.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 185px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_IouBa0GuL2A/Sb6q7nipkzI/AAAAAAAAAZk/KyOYrcjBPnk/s200/kim+015.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5313872551547081522" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;consultations for eyes and nails, so I opted to see what I could do to expand my knowledge&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;For awhile, I hadn't been digging &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;Sephora&lt;/span&gt;, but that was&lt;br /&gt;during my beginner artistry days.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As soon as I began my journey down the many rows of lovely options, I saw one of the associates with this slamming eye display and wanted to get some suggestions. So as I approached her and she led me to a section that up until this point had been a total passover. The area was Make Up Forever, I was told by the associate that this is the line that Cirque De &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;Soleli&lt;/span&gt; uses for their performances. Upon its settings, I saw several faces with different designs and patterns that you could create with their products along with the numbers. So I chose to do one that would only boost the my DIVA persona. I selected shades 10 ( bright yellow), 18( mid range orange) and 75 (brightly hued fuchsia) from the Star Powder line to create this rainbow type effect, as well as taking a &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;glimpse&lt;/span&gt; at their Flash Color Pot display.  I can't remember the &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"&gt;associate's&lt;/span&gt; name that supplied me with samples and suggestions, but I will say that she did assist in converting me to another perfecting line of products for my addiction to makeup. She also stated that she prefers to use &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5"&gt;Stila's&lt;/span&gt; smudge pot in Black to create a defining eyeliner, therefore I purchased it as it made my overall look increase. I left out of the store with some new products and tools to use on past and future clients. I believe for this season that my top three cosmetics lines are MAC, &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6"&gt;MUFE&lt;/span&gt;, and &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7"&gt;Stila&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tootles!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1927409770893564275-7422383745046548526?l=makeupclique.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1927409770893564275/posts/default/7422383745046548526'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1927409770893564275/posts/default/7422383745046548526'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://makeupclique.blogspot.com/2009/03/top-three-lines-4-me.html' title='Top Three Lines 4 Me'/><author><name>Creative1k</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-XjzPdly0Djw/TpXYtoyhMaI/AAAAAAAAAoI/JhREW3GJ640/s220/DSC04329.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_IouBa0GuL2A/Sb6sXPCHXlI/AAAAAAAAAZ8/RNHyGFon-fo/s72-c/kim+016.jpg' height='72' width='72'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1927409770893564275.post-8835145312699094769</id><published>2009-03-09T11:37:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-03-16T11:48:07.867-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Mac Makeup'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='lipgloss'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='foundation'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Bobbi Brown Cosmetics'/><title type='text'>I succumb to M-A-C</title><content type='html'>Ok, so within the last two weeks I've given in to M-A-C products. At first, I was truly unhappy with the results of purchasing Oh Oh Baby and the way it defined my lips. So I decided to give them a second chance with foundation, as nothing else was working. My artist, Lacey was very essential in my decision process and even gave me some new pointers that I will be sharing in later blogs. I purchased three products and I'm totally a donning myself  a M-A-C seeker. I will be purchasing several items for the next couple of months, to just get my face into the game. I believe I'll host a special gathering for my friends to come and shop through my collections, so that I can go and refill with all MAC.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So far I have...succumb!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tootles&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1927409770893564275-8835145312699094769?l=makeupclique.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1927409770893564275/posts/default/8835145312699094769'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1927409770893564275/posts/default/8835145312699094769'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://makeupclique.blogspot.com/2009/03/i-succumb-to-m-c.html' title='I succumb to M-A-C'/><author><name>Creative1k</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-XjzPdly0Djw/TpXYtoyhMaI/AAAAAAAAAoI/JhREW3GJ640/s220/DSC04329.JPG'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1927409770893564275.post-866346023582625322</id><published>2009-02-19T09:05:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-02-19T09:18:38.601-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Prestige Cosmetics</title><content type='html'>So as I'm doing my local search for clearance items at Walgreen's, I come across a wonderful closeout of Prestige Cosmetics. Now they aren't a high end brand, but for Walgreen's' standards they're pretty steep. So I opted to ramble through the offering to find several soft kohl pencils, waterproof eyeliners, and etc. The range of colors that they offer are simply magnificent and I'm definitely impressed by far. You know usually buying some cosmetic products from Retail stores, can cause one to be a little cautious. As it only takes one time to have an allergic reaction from a cheap brand to scar you for a lifetime. So I was quite the amazed and dazzled Diva, I spent very little on such complementing tools. Upon application, the eyeliners go on smooth and stay on until I'm ready to take them off or pretend to be Sleeping Beauty in them. Check on the various tools of their line of cosmetics at &lt;a style="color: rgb(192, 192, 192); font-style: italic;" href="http://www.prestigecosmetics.com/"&gt;Prestige Cosmetics&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tootles!!!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1927409770893564275-866346023582625322?l=makeupclique.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1927409770893564275/posts/default/866346023582625322'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1927409770893564275/posts/default/866346023582625322'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://makeupclique.blogspot.com/2009/02/prestige-cosmetics.html' title='Prestige Cosmetics'/><author><name>Creative1k</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-XjzPdly0Djw/TpXYtoyhMaI/AAAAAAAAAoI/JhREW3GJ640/s220/DSC04329.JPG'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1927409770893564275.post-3090751309075844627</id><published>2009-02-06T14:30:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-02-06T14:40:45.605-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='moisturizer'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Forbes list'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='cosmetics'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='music'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='rapper'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='body'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='men&apos;s line'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='50 cent'/><title type='text'>Word to All My Metro-Mens!!!!</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_IouBa0GuL2A/SYy6sXFOnJI/AAAAAAAAAXc/hMS91ZBLQmk/s1600-h/50cent.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 400px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_IouBa0GuL2A/SYy6sXFOnJI/AAAAAAAAAXc/hMS91ZBLQmk/s400/50cent.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5299816132781186194" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Associated press has just released news that Curtis "50 Cent"Jackson is finally through putting the finishing touches on his cosmetics line exclusively for men.

What is the deal? I would never imagine that the Target would be getting effed by the recession! You would think that this would cause them to lower their prices just a tad bit, oh no.

I can kind of expect this type of action from major retailers like Macy's, Neiman Marcus, and Saks to come to these types of terms. Yet, I would never expect for Target to do such a thing.  Keep a look, more stores are said to be doing drastic cuts!!!  I say let's see if we can get them drop prices by 30% to cover our grief spending or lack of spending.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tootles!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1927409770893564275-129872176263594965?l=makeupclique.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1927409770893564275/posts/default/129872176263594965'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1927409770893564275/posts/default/129872176263594965'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://makeupclique.blogspot.com/2009/02/layoffs-from-major-minor-retail-favs.html' title='Layoffs from Major &amp; Minor Retail Favs'/><author><name>Creative1k</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-XjzPdly0Djw/TpXYtoyhMaI/AAAAAAAAAoI/JhREW3GJ640/s220/DSC04329.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_IouBa0GuL2A/SYdvXbjK5GI/AAAAAAAAAWc/cRLcNVJOnuY/s72-c/Target_05_75_PMS186.jpg' height='72' width='72'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1927409770893564275.post-2545797913026393677</id><published>2009-02-02T13:53:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-02-02T14:04:07.443-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Superbowl'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Jennifer Hudson'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='better'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='rock it or stop it?'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='mess'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='clothing'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Fashion Week'/><title type='text'>Rock it or Stop It?</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_IouBa0GuL2A/SYdskkFvPLI/AAAAAAAAAWU/hYc1478pCC0/s1600-h/jennyhud.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer; width: 260px; height: 400px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_IouBa0GuL2A/SYdskkFvPLI/AAAAAAAAAWU/hYc1478pCC0/s400/jennyhud.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5298322862043511986" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ok, I've been trying to hold back on posting the bad shots of my favorite celebs in atrocious getups, but I just couldn't take or do it anymore. So here's my first installment.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I absolutely love Jenny Hud, but sometimes her stylist needs to be cut. I mean she has marveled herself into curvy statue type, and she keeps coming up short at the most elaborate events. Check out last night's ensemble, in front of the entire United States. Jenny dons a white top, with leggings, and mini-jacket and stiletto sands. No ma'am, pressed ham!! Her make-up as usual is flawless, but her units leave fans guessing. So would you rock it or stop it?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm definitely screaming &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;STOP IT!!!!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tootles,&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1927409770893564275-2545797913026393677?l=makeupclique.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1927409770893564275/posts/default/2545797913026393677'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1927409770893564275/posts/default/2545797913026393677'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://makeupclique.blogspot.com/2009/02/rock-it-or-stop-it.html' title='Rock it or Stop It?'/><author><name>Creative1k</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-XjzPdly0Djw/TpXYtoyhMaI/AAAAAAAAAoI/JhREW3GJ640/s220/DSC04329.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_IouBa0GuL2A/SYdskkFvPLI/AAAAAAAAAWU/hYc1478pCC0/s72-c/jennyhud.jpg' height='72' width='72'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1927409770893564275.post-3545635261153440386</id><published>2009-02-02T12:53:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-02-02T13:48:28.162-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='women-shoppers'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='movies'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='shopaholic'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Confessions of a Shopaholic'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='fashionista'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='book series'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='sophie'/><title type='text'>Confessions of a Shopaholic</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_IouBa0GuL2A/SYdgxFzZNaI/AAAAAAAAAWM/xSgUT7Mrucw/s1600-h/shopaholic.gif"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 363px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_IouBa0GuL2A/SYdgxFzZNaI/AAAAAAAAAWM/xSgUT7Mrucw/s400/shopaholic.gif" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5298309883112273314" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On February 13, the sensational book series,Confessions of a Shopaholic will hit theaters nationwide and I simply cannot wait. I have been known to shut down a couple of outlet malls in my time, yet I know when it's time to call it quits... MMMM, so ok I don't! Yet, I sympathize with each and every shopaholic throughout this nation and even more so this continent, because this movie will call for others to know our secrets.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you're thinking, how can I know if I'm belong to this secret society of over energized shoppers, well let's see.  If you're known to family and friends as the Fashion Madame, Fashion Maniac, or Phantom of the credit card,who's known to never control his/her spending, then it is probably been said that you are a shopaholic. Now if that's not enough to categorize your heightened sense of shopping then keep reading.  Take a few moments and see if you can say yes to these bullets for a  quick diagnosis:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;a. You never pay attention to the amount of credit cards that you own.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;b. You can't walk by a boutique or department store, without peeking through the window display.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;c. Various places call out to you at night about their next sale, when you're suppose to be in a relaxing state of mind.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;d. The first thing you do when you go to the Internet is to check the latest eBay auctions on your favorite designers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;e. Your conversation is categorized by your favorite trends and how you plan to start the next movement of uniqueness.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;f. Your closet is screaming for an upgrade, yet you live in an apartment and you're not allowed to make drastic changes to the floor plan.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;g. You go into a store to purchase one item and become overwhelmed by the fabulous sale, and end up with at least ten or more bags of things you're not really sure you need.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you answered yes to more than three of the questions, it is possible that you are a shopaholic. So tell us what's your favorite shopaholic experience and why?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tootles!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1927409770893564275-3545635261153440386?l=makeupclique.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1927409770893564275/posts/default/3545635261153440386'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1927409770893564275/posts/default/3545635261153440386'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://makeupclique.blogspot.com/2009/02/confessions-of-shopaholic.html' title='Confessions of a Shopaholic'/><author><name>Creative1k</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-XjzPdly0Djw/TpXYtoyhMaI/AAAAAAAAAoI/JhREW3GJ640/s220/DSC04329.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_IouBa0GuL2A/SYdgxFzZNaI/AAAAAAAAAWM/xSgUT7Mrucw/s72-c/shopaholic.gif' height='72' width='72'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1927409770893564275.post-1225841135280017143</id><published>2009-01-21T13:35:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-01-21T14:38:08.044-08:00</updated><title type='text'>1st Lady Style</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_IouBa0GuL2A/SXejppVt3CI/AAAAAAAAAVs/gDb0QGw4cbk/s1600-h/ball-dvf.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 138px; height: 200px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_IouBa0GuL2A/SXejppVt3CI/AAAAAAAAAVs/gDb0QGw4cbk/s200/ball-dvf.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5293879822864210978" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_IouBa0GuL2A/SXejkOz8ZQI/AAAAAAAAAVk/c_H2xdL6_b0/s1600-h/ball-oscar.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 138px; height: 200px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_IouBa0GuL2A/SXejkOz8ZQI/AAAAAAAAAVk/c_H2xdL6_b0/s200/ball-oscar.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5293879729843889410" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_IouBa0GuL2A/SXeXd4OIYZI/AAAAAAAAAVc/1lRa6Itkg4U/s1600-h/44622360.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 400px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_IouBa0GuL2A/SXeXd4OIYZI/AAAAAAAAAVc/1lRa6Itkg4U/s400/44622360.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5293866426560962962" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Last night, our first lady Michelle Obama  looked absolutely ravishing as she entered the Neighborhood Ball with our President. Her decision to highlight upcoming designers is what makes her such USA royalty. As all fashion lovers all over the world saw the huge masses of fashion designers that produced sketches for the first lady diva. I absolutely loved the one shouldered ensemble that she decked out with a flawless natural glowing face. Some questioned that she should have went with something more flattening to her natural curvaceous shape, but I think she looks stunning. Of course, I had my favorite picks that I also thought would flatter her a little bit better, but in the end she selected something totally out of the norm, and it worked.

Not only are they both bursting out hot videos from their hit banging CDs, but their bid for world domination has hit Loreal Paris. Many are familiar with big sis,Beyonce being a spokesman for the company for awhile now and has decided to turn it over to her baby sis, Ms. Sol-Angel herself, Solange.

Unfortunately, some more vintage designers like Betsey Johnson and Carmen Marc &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;Valvo&lt;/span&gt;, are withdrawing their complete fall lines from this &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;Spring's&lt;/span&gt; Fashion Week in NYC Bryant Park. This will be the first time that either designer has missed a tent show in like...FOREVER!  What on earth is going on? Is the recession, hitting us so hard that our high end designers cannot perform in their most outlandish behavior&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"&gt;&lt;/span&gt; that they are used to?  I wonder how the buzz is getting around, I mean when you have two of the world's hottest designers withdrawing from a worldwide event that leads to mass press and media outlets resulting in $$$$, what could have possibly went so wrong for them to shut out completely. I wonder if it's a part of some new plan to begin a different type of fashion show. &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5"&gt;Hmmmm&lt;/span&gt;...let's keep our eyes open for more fashion week alerts!!! I know Fashion Week is not so with Betsey.

I heard this back in early December and it appears to be true. The glam gods, Dolce &amp;amp; Gabbana are said to be putting the last touches on their new cosmetic line. The line is said to be released in a couple of weeks, right before Fall 2009 Fashion Week in February. I was starting to get nervous as many designers are starting to release high end  brand cosmetics. Let's see what what the good ole boys have in stores for their consumers. I definitely image a high volume mascara and defining lip gloss with some type of shimmer. If you're anything like me, you'll buy one item to test out the products for yourself before submerging yourself like we all did with Mac and others.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tootles!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1927409770893564275-312971624544409067?l=makeupclique.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1927409770893564275/posts/default/312971624544409067'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1927409770893564275/posts/default/312971624544409067'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://makeupclique.blogspot.com/2009/01/hot-off-press.html' title='Hot off the Press'/><author><name>Creative1k</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-XjzPdly0Djw/TpXYtoyhMaI/AAAAAAAAAoI/JhREW3GJ640/s220/DSC04329.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_IouBa0GuL2A/SWXttlRvF1I/AAAAAAAAAUs/UYFETgH85Gs/s72-c/images.jpg' height='72' width='72'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1927409770893564275.post-6557192152284885722</id><published>2009-01-07T13:20:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-01-08T04:44:32.382-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Mac Makeup'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='brushes'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='kroger&apos;s'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='low'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='cost'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='website'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='face'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='e.l.f.'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='eyes'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='pimpin'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='cosmetics'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='studio'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='lips'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='wal-mart'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='budget'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='target'/><title type='text'>Make-Up Pimpin on a Budget with e.l.f.</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_IouBa0GuL2A/SWX0dSLa45I/AAAAAAAAAU0/tF9hh8ZFNL8/s1600-h/elflogo_blk.gif"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer; width: 175px; height: 134px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_IouBa0GuL2A/SWX0dSLa45I/AAAAAAAAAU0/tF9hh8ZFNL8/s320/elflogo_blk.gif" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5288902121349637010" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you didn't recognize that we're currently in a recession and that us beauty enthusiasts can't go out and continue to splurge on our valuable MAC, Estee Lauder, Dior, or Prescriptives designer brand cosmetics. Please don't fret as  several top makeup artist and retail chains are combining talents and prices to suffice beauty lovers worldwide. Most have rose to the occasion and are slowly saving the day. However Eyes-Lips-Face (e.l.f.)  have brought their lines in hopes of reaching the lower masses. I simply love this low cost supplier. They have a wonderful assortment of professional brushes and I'm so shocked at the price, mostly in Kroger's, Target, and some Wal-Mart in southern states every things priced at $1.oo. Yep, that's right a beauty product that doesn't immediately decompose or irritate your skin at a dollar. I can't and won't complain. Checkout their website for new additions and special gift sets at &lt;a href="http://www.eyeslipsface.com/"&gt;e.l.f&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If the dollar price line is a little too cheap for you, they also are introducing this new line of products called Studio. It features all of their professional brushes and makeup kits.

I am a total makeuppreneur.Yes, I coined and created a new term for my condition. My friends are constantly telling me that I should get help for my obsession, but I've realized that I'm just destined to be in the profession of fashion and make up one of these days. So this blog will consist of various blogs from other esteemed artists ,bloggers, and those like me who just love to be made up. Please enjoy!!!! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Peace and Blessings in 2009!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1927409770893564275-3481531293528540568?l=makeupclique.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1927409770893564275/posts/default/3481531293528540568'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1927409770893564275/posts/default/3481531293528540568'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://makeupclique.blogspot.com/2009/01/happy-nu-year.html' title='Happy Nu Year!'/><author><name>Creative1k</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-XjzPdly0Djw/TpXYtoyhMaI/AAAAAAAAAoI/JhREW3GJ640/s220/DSC04329.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_IouBa0GuL2A/SWLa16YdxEI/AAAAAAAAATM/9374YpsFOXI/s72-c/mkeup.jpg' height='72' width='72'/></entry></feed>
