I did try and post this about a week ago however, blogger went down and deleted my post....twice. </span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #8e7cc3;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Thank you for holding on with me and being patient. This month really has been crazy for me, and as the summer nears, I really don't think that it's going to stop anytime soon.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #8e7cc3;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">So this look was requested and named by one of my fans who requested this look on my facebook page. </span></span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Xb9qQIqUsVU/Tco7H4c9BFI/AAAAAAAABXo/Z1iBzUH1yDI/s1600/Photo+on+2011-04-29+at+13.36+%25236.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Xb9qQIqUsVU/Tco7H4c9BFI/AAAAAAAABXo/Z1iBzUH1yDI/s320/Photo+on+2011-04-29+at+13.36+%25236.jpg" width="318" /></a></div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #8e7cc3;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">At first, I honestly did not like it on myself, but quickly fell in love with it. I received many compliments all day about it.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #8e7cc3;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">I tried to use as much drugstore brands as I could. </span></span><br />

It is really purple at the moment, so please be patient with me, I will have a tutorial filmed and up asap. </span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #8e7cc3;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">I already have so many ideas.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #8e7cc3;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #8e7cc3;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">And with that, I'll leave you to enjoy the video, leave me a comment and let me know what you think! (Hopefully blogger doesn't delete this post!!!)</span></span><br />

I wanted to share this tip with my followers and see what you all have to say about it. </span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #f9cb9c;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">I posted this about two days ago and have had some interesting responses. Some, like me, have found that this was extremely helpful in explaining how foundations are applied in each way. Especially for HD photography/film. And others have questioned it by saying that it is different on skin and that if you wet the sponge, it won't suck up the product. </span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #f9cb9c;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">My 'argument' over that is that, yes, even though it is not on the skin, it is a clear way of distinguishing application. Also, for the amount of product waste, waste in general from usage of many sponges and money spent constantly buying new sponges, you might as well buy a good quality foundation brush that can be used over and over with no waste!</span></span><br />

So, definitely busy busy..... Yesterday, I posted a video on Youtube. It is a tutorial I did, that was inspired by Nicki Minaj's 'Moment 4 life' music video makeup. I changed it a little bit to better suit what I like better. I hope you can check it out and let me know what you think.</span></span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #ea9999;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">I find a lot of girls are steering towards the whole fresh faced, dramatic eye, soft lips kind of makeup as of recently. Very ballerina-esque. </span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #ea9999;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Nude nails and flat shoes also seem to be everywhere. Soft pink and baby pink all over the place.</span></span><br />

How was your weekend? This weekend for me was quite.. <i>uneventful</i>... well as far as any partying went</span>(which tends to happen every weekend at my house)<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">. I just worked and then worked on my latest video, which is was not a tutorial at all, but still the same, very important to me.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #ea9999;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">I wanted to share two things with you, first being my look for this weekend</span>(above photos)<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">. Yup, thats right, this weekend I went pretty bare with my makeup. Fresh faced, some eyeliner and lashes. I know some may say that the lashes aren't 'bare' or 'natural' but to me they totally are, as I wear little to no mascara. </span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #ea9999;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Secondly, I wanted to share with you my Introduction video that I entered with my entry to the Shu Uemura 'Mystic Nature' Competition.</span></span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="344" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/NSWasPIoeVA?fs=1" width="425"></iframe></div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #ea9999; font-size: large;"> </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #ea9999; font-size: large;">This competition is to become the National Makeup artist for Shu Uemura. I really want to win... the top 20 finalists will be announced on the 13th(</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #ea9999; font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">xXxFINGERS CROSSEDxXx</span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #ea9999; font-size: large;">) and if I do by some miracle make it to the top 20, I do need help from you all! As the next part will be based on voting... anyways... take a look at my video, and let me know what you think :) Have a great night and a fabulous Monday!</span><br />

I am so happy that the weekend is here. Even though I do have to work this weekend, I am just happy that it is here. This is a look that I pulled together the other day.. I'm not sure why I didn't take any photos with the glasses off.. I guess I was having too much fun with them. I'm not sure you can see the makeup very well, it is a purple smokey eye with red eyeliner on the bottom lash line. . I also curled my hair... and I guess while I was curling my hair, I saw these glasses just laying there</span>(they are from my boyfriends halloween costume) <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">and I put them on as I curled my hair.. haha.. anyways I thought it was cute and took a few photos. </span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #8e7cc3;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Honestly though, I am a true geek at heart! I am a total knowledge junkie if that makes sense.....</span></span><br />

I have just been so pre occupied with other things. I totally wanted to do an update post the other day... but never got around to it.. it has been about a week since I wrote my last post... I know... I am a horrible blogger... and I apologize!!!</span></span><br />

I have been receiving some pretty amazing offers, dealing with me doing makeup for events and photo shoots and music videos that I really have not had time or well the motivation to blog. I have also been so caught up with personal things, which I prefer not to bore you with.. </span></span><br />

I had no idea what colours to use and where to begin. So I decided to ask my friends for colour combinations... One of my friends (<a href="http://www.youtube.com/user/1ROSETV"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #fff2cc;">Seiz</span></a>), who happens to be the one singing on my video, came up with this colour combination. So, I basically took the idea and 'ran' with it... At first, to be honest, it looked horrible, but as I progressed in the process, I totally loved it. </span></span><br />

Such as Tequila Sunrise or a Peach Bellini? Anyways.... I really hope that you guys like this look... Let me know what you think with a comment below!

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #9fc5e8;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #cfe2f3;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">If you follow my posts, you may have noticed a post I made in the middle of March, it was talking about <a href="http://vividfusion.blogspot.com/2011/03/update-has-it-already-been-that-long.html">wanting to get the Nailene Professional UV Gel Curing Lamp</a>, however after talking to another beauty expert, she told me to do some research about the side effects of using such lamps... and of course my "cosmetic geek" and "research junkie" sides came out.... <i>here is the fruit of my research labour.</i>. hehe</span></span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"> Did you know that the Artificial nails industry is worth over $6 billion dollars? At about five times the amount of Starbucks, there are almost 60,000 nail salons in the US alone.</span></span><br />
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-NP-G4OOL9Gk/TZKC6IjGFqI/AAAAAAAABUU/i9ml2GvzWlk/s1600/3096163337_c3012507c2_o.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #9fc5e8;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">In these nail salons, UV light is used, which is argued to increase the risk or skin cancer on your fingers.</span></span><br />

But who do we believe and what do we do?</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #9fc5e8;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">I did a little research and found valid points on both views. </span></span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #9fc5e8;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">According to the researchers at the <a href="http://www.mdanderson.org/">M.D. Anderson Cancer Center at the University of Texas</a>, it was noticed that some of their patients who had skin cancer on their fingers</span>(which is an uncommon place to get skin cancer) <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">had been exposed to having UV light for artificial nails. This light has been proven to damage cells' DNA and therefore causing mutations that lead to cancer. Also, from the Director of research at Dalhousie University's dermatology division in Halifax; <a href="http://www.ratemds.com/doctor-ratings/53407/Dr-Richard-Langley-Halifax-NS.html">Dr. Richard Langley</a>: <i>"The scientific evidence that UV nail lights used in the dryers can cause cancer are both direct and indirect."</i> He also noted published case reports of women who didn't have any family history of sun damage that turned into skin cancer, who had skin cancer on their fingers, around the nail area after regularly using UV nail dryers. </span></span><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.sciencephotolibrary.com/images/showFullWatermarked.html/C0041251-Skin_cancer_on_finger-SPL.jpg?id=670041251" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="212" src="http://www.sciencephotolibrary.com/images/showFullWatermarked.html/C0041251-Skin_cancer_on_finger-SPL.jpg?id=670041251" width="320" /></a></div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #9fc5e8; font-size: large;">We can compare the amount of radiation that your fingers get from a nail treatment to a tanning bed/booth because someone who regularly gets their nails done would probably get it done every 2-4 weeks. If this were done for years this could definitely add up to a significant amount of UV exposure over the years. However, no large scale research has been done to clarify the dangers of using UV light. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #9fc5e8; font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #9fc5e8; font-size: large;">Some doctors say that you can reduce the exposure by wearing gloves or putting towels or some kind of barrier around your skin during nail treatments. You could also put sunscreen on your skin. However, these methods according to the doctors are not enough to prevent skin damage from the UV light. And quite honestly, we all know the best prevention is to not use them at all. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #9fc5e8; font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #9fc5e8; font-size: large;">And of course, in general, the more exposure you have, the more at risk you are of developing skin cancer from UV lamps. And there would be your decision... to do it or not.</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #9fc5e8; font-size: large;"><i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #cfe2f3;">"Nail drying UV lights are lower wattage than body tanning UV lights but they are used on smaller region. You need to look at watts per square inch of skin not total watts. Of course the duration of the exposure matters too. In general you should minimize your exposure to UV light..."</span></i> said a reader of <a href="http://thedermblog.com/">thedermblog.com</a></span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #9fc5e8;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #cfe2f3;">"...is it true that the UV light emitted at nail salons is the same as that emitted by a tanning bed?</span></i></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #9fc5e8;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #cfe2f3;">According to dermatologist Dr. Loretta Ciraldo, M.D. in the August 2008 issue of Oprah magazine, UVA light emitted by nail salon type dryers is only 10-30 watts, which is significantly less than the 2400 watts or so emitted by a tanning bed...."</span></i> said a read or thedermblog.com</span></span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #9fc5e8;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">To conclude, with all this information, I am still at a crossroad about my decision on whether to buy one for myself or not. What do you think? Would you get your nails done again? Do you not care because you don't get them done that often or not at all? Let me know your thoughts!</span></span><br />

I most likely would not have filmed this, however I was requested to do it many times. So, I finally gave in. </span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #8e7cc3;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">As you may notice in the video, I do use quite a bit of products, however I use only a little of each. I love the blend and mix products to get my desired effect. And this is what I like to say is my "artist" side. </span></span><br />

A few days ago Emma Watson was named the newest of the bunch, as Lancome's Ambassador. The bunch includes Kate Winslet, Julia Roberts, Anne Hathaway and Penelope Cruz. </span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #b6d7a8;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">She tweeted a couple times last week, giving hints about this new adventure. She later announced the news on Monday morning. She is definitely happy about this new role. </span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #b6d7a8;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">The President of Lancome international had this to say about the collaborations: <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #d9ead3;"><i>"Thanks to her charm, romanticism and her incredible modernity, Emma Watson has become the icon of her generation. We are delighted by the new collaboration with Emma, who brings a fresh spirit to Lancome."</i></span></span></span><br />

While Naomi has been the face for the fragrance since 2008, this is what the company had to say about the change: </span><i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #6fa8dc;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">"While Naomi Watts' ethereal beauty embodied the angelic aspect of the fragrance, Thierry Mugler chose to reignite the enticing and explosive dimensions of the fragrance with the sultry Mendes, through her obviously flawless physical beauty is in perfect harmony with the artist's aesthetic canon, Ms. Mendes mesmerized Mugler with her independence, determination and humour." </span></span></i></span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="http://www.celebritynewsspotlight.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/eva-mendes.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><img border="0" height="240" src="http://www.celebritynewsspotlight.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/eva-mendes.jpg" width="320" /></span></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #9fc5e8;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">The new campaign is planned to debut later this year.... </span></span></span></div><div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #9fc5e8;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">I personally cannot wait!

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #f4cccc;">I find it funny sometimes, well maybe not funny, but interesting when I find myself in front of a customer who asks me if it is REALLY necessary to use brushes to apply makeup.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #f4cccc;">Of course, there is no 'Right' way to put on makeup, but I think that brushes make ALL the difference in application. </span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #f4cccc;">Now of course this excludes those amazing artists who can apply beautiful makeup with just their fingers or a cotton swab. But, for myself I need brushes!</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #f4cccc;">This post would not be complete if I did not have a picture of my brush collection.... well here is most of it.... I'm pretty sure I have more hiding somewhere. </span></span><br />
<a href="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-8CyOVINd0X0/TYTwoyFVdWI/AAAAAAAABTc/o0xbY9SDNGg/s1600/brushes.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #f4cccc;"><img border="0" height="452" src="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-8CyOVINd0X0/TYTwoyFVdWI/AAAAAAAABTc/o0xbY9SDNGg/s640/brushes.jpg" width="640" /></span></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #f4cccc;">It's a lot, but really it's not a lot to me, as an artist. </span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #f4cccc;">Looking at my brushes I thought to myself, first, I have a lot of the same brushes. And second, I tend to stick to the same few brands of brushes. I have brushes from Smashbox, Coverfx, Dior, Pur minerals, Bare Minerals, Quo and good old Dollar store brushes(mainly for special effects makeup). My favourite are the first three. </span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #f4cccc;">So, the purpose of this post really is to show you my brush collection and to ask you a few questions:</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #f4cccc;">1. Do you use makeup brushes? or use your fingers/cotton swabs?</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #f4cccc;">2. Which brand(s) of brush are your favourite?</span></span><br />

And you know what? Great for her!</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #cccccc;">I was super stoked when I saw her newest video - On the floor recently. I was definitely in awe of her beauty and her makeup! She looked stunning with only bronzed skin and bronzy eyes. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-NdSrna3JlCQ/TYKlXYCXrnI/AAAAAAAABTQ/zJtD2RKypp8/s1600/sidefloor%2521.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-NdSrna3JlCQ/TYKlXYCXrnI/AAAAAAAABTQ/zJtD2RKypp8/s320/sidefloor%2521.jpg" width="207" /></a></div><div style="text-align: left;"><a href="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-eb_uME52r78/TYKlqHt7LoI/AAAAAAAABTU/2bUhs9qMwjo/s1600/cutme.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-eb_uME52r78/TYKlqHt7LoI/AAAAAAAABTU/2bUhs9qMwjo/s320/cutme.jpg" width="154" /></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #cccccc;">I, of course wanted to try the makeup out for myself. And thus, a makeup tutorial. Now, before you say "this doesn't look like her" or "this doesn't look like the makeup she has on", I have to say one thing: I was INSPIRED by her makeup, I was not planning to create it to the very shade of the eyeshadow. I think my version turned out pretty well. I was super pleased with it.. unfortunately I had nowhere to go on the day that I filmed this. So I wore it to the veterinarian (Michi and Lima needed their shots). With the lashes on the bottom I definitely got some stares and smiles, but no disgusted looks.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-IVEWOk-WH7o/TYKk1LCBeiI/AAAAAAAABTE/zltjyrYa9aE/s1600/jlo0.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-IVEWOk-WH7o/TYKk1LCBeiI/AAAAAAAABTE/zltjyrYa9aE/s400/jlo0.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #cccccc;">I created this look with no name brand eyeshadows, just simple makeup that I have had from makeup school. And you know what's awesome about this look, I am sure the EVERY girl has brown or taupe eyeshadows that they think are boring... but this is a way to spice it up :) I really hope that you enjoy!!</span></div><br />
