MAKE UP FOR EVER Pro Sculpting Palette

Although I went to school for makeup, I'm still learning new techniques. Plus discovering products that make life much easier. Sculpting is the craze that is not going way. I blame Kim Kardashian! Although we all can't slay like Kim K, we can try right! MAKE UP FOR EVER’s new Pro Sculpting Palette ($54.00 CAN) is here to help us all slay!


MAKE UP FOR EVER Ultra HD Invisible Cover Foundation

As a WOC, I get asked about foundation A LOT. I mostly just refer people to my Easy Women of Colour Foundation Guide but since 2014- I haven't found a new one to add to my list until now.

Introducing MAKE UP FOR EVER Ultra HD Invisible Cover Foundation ($50.00 CAN) & Ultra HD Invisible Cover Stick Foundation ($50.00 CAN) .

MAKE UP FOR EVER Ultra HD Invisible Cover Foundation is literally the MOST natural foundation that you will ever use in your life. Honestly I have never tried anything like this in my life. It's like I'm wearing an instagram filter.

My colour:  COLOR 178 = Y535 - Chestnut

With 40 shades to choose from, Whether your an MUA or your local selfie queen you will love this medium finish formula. You know when you watch the news in HD and you see enough makeup on the host that you swear you can peel off? You would get NONE of that with this foundation. It's honestly invisible under the newest 4k lens. Let me also add that it's formulated with hyaluronic spheres for time-released hydration.

You can apply it with a brush or a sponge.
I prefer to use a damp sponge for application.
No filter here!

Make Up For Ever Ultra HD Invisible Cover Stick Foundation is for my girls who need a bit more coverage. It's the same concept of the liquid just with more of a medium-full coverage.


My colour:  COLOR 178 = Y535 - Chestnut


MAKE UP FOR EVER Ultra HD Invisible Cover Stick Foundation is perfect for extra coverage, contouring or touch ups.



This is the most natural-looking stick foundation that I've ever seen in my life.
15 shades to chose from. I love the fact that it's in a stick foundation that doesn't dry me out stick to my skin.

Maybelline: Jourdan Dunn- Met Ball 2015

I really like Jourdan Dunn! 
Why? 
She went from being spotted in Primark 9 years ago to being the first black British model on the Forbes list! ICONIC!!! Plus she comes from a West Indian background like me. She was at the MET ball and her makeup was done with Maybelline products- I have the scoop!
“Jourdan's makeup look was created to reflect the gold and mauve tones of her
graphic cut-out and geometric shaped dress.”
