Make-up by Karen Jean Santos

Ever since discovering the magic of make-up, I've been hooked! I've gone on to build  my own personal collection and know-how by reading blogs, watching videos (hello Michelle Phan!) and attending make-up courses offered in Manila. 

My first try at a make-up course was through Suesh, same company I bought my 16-piece make-up brush set from. This was in April 2009 and they held it at a condominium in Eastwood City for a group of 8 or so girls. I was so ecstatic to get a one-on-one time with a Kanebo MUA so I can build my HG day & night look. I remembered looking and feeling fab afterwards whilst trying to memorize every stroke and color that we did that day.

As memories don't always serve us well, over time I forgot how to re-create the same perfect smokey eyes they did to me that day. It was a good thing that my office mate Maan, invited me to a make-up workshop of her classmate, Karen Jean Santos. I have honestly not heard about her from before but since it was a referral by a friend, I trusted her good judgment. 

Beauty School Drool...

This morning I woke up with a smile on my face as the day I have waited for for almost two months has finally arrived. I'll be off to my half-day make-up class care of Suesh.

I'm really impressed with their previous classes seeing the transformation of the attendees from simple to stunning = )

Here are my make-up loot (as well as tools) for later:





Sooo excited to finally be able to use my 16-pc Suesh brushes properly..hahahaha = )
