Blank Canvas Cosmetics Pro Brushes

Hello Lovelies :)

It has been a while since I made a post and I am so sorry about it. I am really busy at the moment with the make up course and with work and with wedding preparations. 
Still today I found sometime to connect with you again. I hope that all of you are enjoying Summer.

So today I am going to review the amazing brushes from Blank Canvas Cosmetics. I took the offer of 40% code few weeks ago and I purchase this amazing brushes that cost me 104.14 euros + Shipping included.  BCC Full Range Pro Deluxe 18 Piece Brush Set :)

So I received a bag that I place the Pro D Brush Holder (Cupholder) and they gave me as a gift the Brush Folio. 

This Pro D Brush Holder is amazing, I put all my brushes in it and also when you open it you will have two cups, so you can organize the face brushes in one cup and the eye brushes in the other. The two cups will seal together with a clip on buttons. I put all my brushes in it and go to my make up course. I love this a lot. 

This Brush Folio is amazing. The cover is amazing because you can easily wipe it from dirt because it is like plastic. 

The Brush Folio have two sections and on the top you have like a flip cover so that the brushes will be protected from touching the opposite brushes and this is good because there will be no cross contamination. They will also be protected from any damage to the brushes. Although I don't use it till know, I will use it for sure when I have clients that have photo shots or other occasion so that it will be easy for me to find that particular brush.  
These are all the range that I bought from the Blank Canvas Cosmetics. 
These are the face brushes. There are some that are real animal hair and some that are synthetic hair. Brushes F14, F15,F16 are made of goat hair. F17 is made of synthetic hair, F18 is made from natural hair and also synthetic, F20, F21, F22, F23 are made of synthetic fibers. The brushes that are natural hair are ideal for powders and those brushes that are synthetic is ideal to use with liquid or cream make up. 

These are the eye brushes. No10, E23 is made of pony hair, E24, E25, E26, E27 are made of goat hair, E28, E30 are made of synthetic fibers, E32 is made of goat hair. There is only one lip brush. L29 is made of synthetic fibers. 
The few brushes that I used I really love them and they are super soft and also ideal for every make up artist, they really do their job really well and in really serious detail. Till now I love them.

For my personal use but I use the real techniques brushes and I use Blank Canvas Cosmetics for my professionalism. I had a problem because I had 2 brushes missing and I really appreciate how efficient the costumer service is, they immediately sent me the two brushes and immediately respond back my message. With my order they gave me some gifts: the brush folio, the Blending Duo E25/26 and also the Brush No 10. Thanks and continue with the great job that you all are doing. If you need me to do another post to go through them in detail just comment below.

Thanks so much

Summer Colourful Look

Hello Lovelies :) 

How are you? So to update you a little bit I had finished my 2 year Higher National Diploma in Health and Social Care Management and I am going to graduate as a Distinction student finally :) Next year I will be doing a one year full time Degree In Health and Social Care.

Also as you all know who follow me, I am doing a make up course so that I will be more professional in what I love and be able to give you the exact information to you all.  

So lets go to this look that I created to go to the Isle of MTV by the way I really enjoyed the performance of Jessie J and also of Rita Ora. They were amazing. 

This is the over all look that I created :) 

This is the eye look that I created. In this post I am going to show you the eye shadows that I used so that you be able to find similar eye shadows to create this Summer look. 
I used the blue that is in the middle of this picture. I use this blue in the corner of my eye. This is a light blue. 

I used this golden brown eye shadow in the middle of my eyes and I blended in the light blue.
I used this green in the outer corner of my eyes and blended in the gold brown eyeshadow. 
This light peach brown I put it in the crease so that to bland the harsh lines of the 3 colours. 
Under my eyes I created blue pencil and also I used it in my waterline. I smudged the blue eyeliner to connect with the light blue that was in the inner corner of my eyes. 

I used a soft ping blush on my cheeks and also used bronzer in my cheek bone. 
Sorry for the lighting but the sun was reflecting the colour of the outside wall opposite my bathroom window and so I became orange. I was wearing a long maxi dress from Peacocks all blue so I combined the eye look with this colour.
