Seven Deadly Sins (AKA 2 Deadly Sins) | 2014 and 2017

Oh, Seven Deadly Sins, how you trouble me so. It's interesting because while I am always down to do this series, and it is also one of my highest requested series, I somehow can never finish it! I truly believe at this point in my life, and all of the points in my life, I just cannot acquire the attention span needed to create all seven sins. I have all of the ideas and character concepts, but can never quite seem to do them. Maybe I just don't truly have a passion for the subject or characters at this point, and one day I will get it and finish/restart the series. Not going to lie though, Gluttony turned out pretty sick regardless if I ever restart it.

Wrath (2014)
This makeup was actually also created so that the lava glows under UV light. Pretty nifty, and works really well if you were surrounded by UV light, like a party or a 5k night run. Might scare a few people, but none the less, you will look really cool.

Gluttony (2017)
Fun Fact: The horns were originally supposed to have cupcakes hanging from them, which I made out of children's air dry clay. Even though they were made, I got rid of them because the cuteness of the cupcakes ended up not fitting the overall feeling of terrifying Gluttony.

My First Video (Throwback) | Written 2015

I remember this exact day of uploading and creating this video. I actually started this video pretty late at night. Funny thing is, what you guys DO NOT see in the video are lamps balancing on my bed, towels down all over my bed so I don't get makeup on my sheets (inevitable), my messy finger printed laptop, full of body paint that WAS NOT water based easy to come off paint (ahem), and the general madness that was actually this video.

Foundation Favorites | 2013

Late night post, I know everyone! I have been busy all day taking the Monster Denture FX class at Kosart Effects ! Now I always get asked, "What kind of foundation do you use?" "I have acne, what kind of foundation should I use to cover it?" "I have scars, what kind of foundation do you recommend?"  "You have perfect skin! What foundation do you use?" GOTCHA ! My skin is  pretty close  to clear, but I  DO  have break outs. My secret to perfect skin? (Once my long journey of clearing up my Grade 3 acne was over, of course) Not only a wonderful skin care routine, but of course, makeup. For those of you who have been following me for a long time, you all know that my skin has not always been as clear as it is today. Thank you all, seriously , for complimenting my skin. I may do a future blog entry about my personal skin care story, with further explanation of it all. Before I start my recommendations, I would like to say that my skin typ...

Popsicle Zombie | 2014

Back in 2014 , and still today, I was and am still pretty proud of the shading within this character. This was the first time I successfully to my satisfaction created shading within my cheek (specifically the left-hand side looking at the photo straight on). This was a part of a very small spread out series on my channel that I was calling popsicle zombies at the time. I loved the way they turned out, and I loved making them different colors! This series was also one that another social media influencer took advantage of, which was kind of a bummer. At the time, I thought they just enjoyed my work! ... until they stopped mentioning they even know me. It ended up being a life lesson, people aren't always so nice.  Of course, I always encourage people to have their hand at painting :) That is what I make my tutorials for! There is a difference between recreating and learning, and recreating to steal. It's what it's. It doesn't make my zombie any less pink, or my h...
