GIVEAWAY WINNER!!!!! (& Notes to RULES of all my giveaway)

Congratulations to......


MARY CHANEL!!!



Please inbox me on YOUTUBE your infomation within 3 days:

Full Name & Mailing Address!

(if I don't hear back from you - i will choose a new winner)

This was completely at random - I used a random number generator website. 

*For those that didn't win - thank you so much for entering.


NOTE: I had to disqualified a few people because:

1. Not all of you followed the rules.
2. Are not even subscribed to me... come on. Don't be rude and cheap.... My giveaways are meant for LOYAL subscribers... if you are in it for free stuff... not cool man. lol

FUTURE REFERENCE:
PLEASE keep your FEED PUBLIC so I can see you have followed all the rules and that I know you are subscribed, like & favourite the video as the rules applied. Failed to do so, I cannot choose you as a winner. It's pretty common sense - how else would it be fair and how would I know you followed the rules? 

With that being said, this is not the last giveaway and I hope you all will be more honest. Also, I remember usernames so I know who are my loyal subscribers when I always see their comments hence I know who were just in it to win and did not even follow the rules.

I apologize if this seems mean but I want it to be FAIR and HONEST.

Thank you for your understanding and for everyone who was being honest and followed the rules.


Hope you all had a great christmas & I have a new video coming soon on my FAVOURITE PRODUCTS OF 2012!!!! 

XOXO

TUTORIAL: How I Fill In My Eyebrows!

Hey guys! Hope you had a great labor day long weekend!

This video was highly requested - thank you! Here I will show you guys what I personally do to fill in my eyebrows!

As for grooming, I don't do too much - I like to keep the natural shape of my brows. I just tweeze and use an eyebrow razor to shave off any stray hairs.




Product List:

Make Up Forever Aqua Brow: 15
ELF Eyebrow Kit: Dark
Benefit Boiing Concealer: 02

Brushes:
Sigma Small Angled Brush: E65
Angled Brush (Unknown Brand - My sister got it at a special effects store, sorry!)
Lancome Dual End Concealer Brush (I think it may be discontinued now)



BIGGEST TIP:
Never OVERPLUCK!!!!!!!!!

I know everyone says this but SERIOUSLY follow it! Eyebrows make or break your face and your brows better be on point bitches! haha

If you suck - go to a professional! Eyebrow threading is my favourite, and it's super cheap!!! :)

I've learned that after tampering around with my brows too often, I lost a lot of hairs and my arch - which is why I have to fill them in now! I used to have way thicker brows so I wish I listened to the millionth person that told me not to mess around too much with it! 

I also think from using very waxy eyebrow pencils - it kinda made me lose some hairs as well... weird?

Anyways, hope this was informative, helpful, and you were able to pick up any tips or tricks!

Thanks so much as always for watching, reading, subscribing :)

TUTORIAL: My Winged Eyeliner

Hey guys! I hope this helped out some of you and you were able to pick up any tips and tricks on how I do my eyeliner! It's very basic but this is the technique I use to make it quick and easy!

Summer Popsicle Tutorial [Copper & Green]

I am finally back with a new tutorial! This one is super easy.. it shouldn't even be called a "tutorial" lol. But I've been wanting to put this one up for a long time and I finally found the time to do it! It's easy and simple but it's great for the spring/summer! 

If you are scared of wearing some bright bold colors, this is the easiest way to rock it without feeling like clown or drawing in too much attention! Be creative and try other colors like royal blue or purple. :)

This is great for monolids, and for those that wear glasses - just skip out on the lashes :P





 Product List:

EYES:
NYX Eyeshadow Base
Urban Decay Naked 2 Palette: Foxy, Chopper, Bootycall
NYX Jumbo Eyepencil: Milk
Urban Decay Book Of Shadows 3: Kush
ELF Waterproof Eyeliner Pen
MAC Powerpoint Eyepencil: Engraved
Maybelline W/P Full & Soft Mascara
#15 Lashes (Unknown Brand... bought at Skylar Nail Supply Store in Garden Grove, CA)

FACE:
MAC Face & Body Foundation: C2
DiorSculpt Concealer: 002
NARS Blush: Gina
MAC Bronzing Powder (L/E): Soft Sand
Dior Highlight Powder: Amber Diamond

Chanel Rouge Coco Shine Lipstick: 48 Evasion



 Hope you guys like it and try it out! Let me know what you think and I am always open for requests!!

Where have I been?!

Hi!!! In the past couple of weeks all I could think about was "Jenny, you need to make a new post/video". However, I haven't been able to set up my computer for awhile since I have moved houses... but it is finally back up and running!!

If you are following me on twitter, I'm sure you will know what I have been up to... but if you are not - let's recap.

1. I moved houses and I hate it. (it was my mom's decision... damn parents lol)

2. Work. Work. More Work! 

3. Canucks are eliminated... I've been mourning.

4. Work. Work. More Work!

5. ....Did I mention work?

Work has been crazy. I finally get to take a break in a couple of days and off I go to DISNEYLAND with some girlfriends! WOOHOO!!!

So with that being said, videos/posts will still have to be postponed. However, I promise I will try my best to at least post simple OOTD's or something!

So please stay put, and be patient! I still really want to film my Spring Tutorial that I think you all will enjoy!!!

Thank you for all the support so far... I will definitely not quit :)
