I couldn’t be a happier beauty blogger right about now! Last weekend I received my new and highly anticipated toy in the mail; my new Canon Rebel XS! I’m so excited to have this toy because I will now be able to take the quality photos for my blog that I have been wanting. It was an investment, but I feel that it will help improve the quality of my posts. I still haven’t figured out how to take pictures of myself with the camera. If anyone has any tips, please let me know! Bare with me for the next few posts, I’m still getting used to the camera. Since this gadget is much more advanced than my little point and shoot, it will take me a few posts to get used to it. With that said, I took the opportunity to play around this weekend and did a photo shoot.
Clean Beauty look. The focus on this look was the skin.
I wanted to achieve super hydrated and dewy skin.

This look was an editorial look. I was going for bright and bold here. For the eyes I used Sugarpill’s “Mochi” (mint shadow) with a bold winged black liner. As for the lips, I lined the lips with an orange lip liner, and then applied OCC “Harlot” lip tar mixed with a clear gloss. FYI, rumor has it that lip tars will be available at Sephora this fall. I’m excited!

This was the last look, and the one I was most excited to do. I did an “Arti-tech” liner look here. Some of you may have heard about this trend that will soon debut this fall from MAC. Basically, “Arti-tech” eye liner, is liner that is applied in a creative manner. All about creativity and experimentation! I wish I could have taken a more detailed shot, but the rain cut our shoot a little short :/

Feedback please! I would love to know what everyone thinks about my photos and the looks I created. Also, if you have any pointers or tips you can lend me on how to take great beauty shots with my camera….I’m all ears 🙂
