List your planned purchases!

Re: List your planned purchases!

^Peeling a tissue?! never heard that one before... I use a DSLR now for my makeup pictures and yes, the clarity is much better but at the same time it focuses on every little detail on the face, every hair follicle, every pore, hence the need to edit which I find annoying. The pictures I used to post with my regular Sony Cybershot weren't as HD but I never really had issues with lighting and never edited (didn't have an editor at the time). Usually what happened was the flash would be too bright, so I found that standing in a corner away from a light source then snapping would give me better lighting. Sometimes, I even closed all the lights and took pictures, this way the lighting would be just right.

^Thanks, I'm going to give your suggestion a try. Also, you should create a blog! You have the DSLR so the pictures would come out AH-MAZING!

Re: List your planned purchases!

I really need to buy a GHD curler/straightener!!!

Re: List your planned purchases!

Should I? Would people even look at it? =/ I was thinking of making a youtube channel and making tutorials but that requires a lot of time and effort, and a good video recorder which I don't have right now...but i'm planning on getting one soon, so let's see! maybe i'll create a blog if people were interested.

Re: List your planned purchases!

^YES YOU YOU SHOULD! You can start a youtube channel after but a blog which can go hand-in-hand with the channel! Pixiwoo, MissChevious, TiffanyD etc all do that as well. And I know so many people who would LOVE your blog and would definitely appreciate the HD pictures as well. :)

Re: List your planned purchases!

DO IT.

Also, a lot of bloggers and vid artists get free stuff from company to test out, cos it gives the companies publicity.

Re: List your planned purchases!

Okay..I have NEVER even opened imovie before, but I just did and made a 30 second picture video..thing. The music didn't even transition out, but this was just a test, it's actually pretty crappy. If you girls wanna see I can PM it to you!

And yes, I will definitely look into the blogging thing! :)

Re: List your planned purchases!

I would totallyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy watch your videos and read your blog! You are great at this and I especially love your natural brown-ish looks. Those are my favorites!

Do it!

Re: List your planned purchases!

Trust me, just playing around with it will help. I was very overwhelmed w/ iMovie but I forced myself to edit short videos and I realized how super-easy it is!

Re: List your planned purchases!

i would definitely follow your blog and youtube channel! M you should do one tooo!!!

Re: List your planned purchases!

^I'll NEVER do a youtube channel but I was definitely thinking of starting a blog. I actually did start it but will get to it properly once I'm done w/ classes. :p

Re: List your planned purchases!

You should too. I'd love to watch!

Re: List your planned purchases!

Awwww thankyou! i'm planning on getting a video recorder soon iA, once I do i'll look into it. I wouldn't know what look to create, so i'd need suggestions from you guys!

Let's hope I get the hang of it too! and it'd be totally awesome if you did tutorials too! :)

Thanks! :)

Re: List your planned purchases!

Re: List your planned purchases!

I need to get the MAC palette where you can fill in your own colors. I have asked hubby to buy me some colors in the beginning and then every month I can add one color to it. I recently moved to a new place and left behind lots of my makeup colors.

I also need a new face wash. Can anyone suggest face wash for dry skin?

Re: List your planned purchases!

^You mean the palette w/ 15 empty slots?

And I have sensitive skin which cannot handle foamy/harsh cleansers and I love Philosophy's Purity Facial Cleanser. It removes every trace of makeup too.

Re: List your planned purchases!

M yes that's the palette i am talking about. My friend has it and she suggested that I can choose my own colors and fill it.

Thanks for the suggestion for face wash ill check it out!

Re: List your planned purchases!

Do you plan on only buying MAC e/s? I feel like there are much better ones out there. Why don't you get a Z Palette and you can fill it with MAC and other shadows as well? You could also fit around 27 as opposed to the 15 you could fit in the MAC (if you take out the insert, I think you can fit around 25 or 26). I have a MAC 15 palette which I plan on filling with a few colorful shades. I have a Z Palette for my neutrals and everyday shades.

Re: List your planned purchases!

OMG I am also moving to KSA after I get married!!! Which city are you moving to?

Re: List your planned purchases!

^YAY! I'll be in Khubar or possibly Jubail, post likely Jubail. I'll be there for 6 months or so at most, have to come back to finish my degree from here. :) You?
