Natural Hair of the Day: The Stretched High Bun

[twitter-follow screen_name=’NoireTropicalB’]

I typically do a high bun when I have unravelled my two-strand twists.  This time this was done on freshly washed, stretched hair, with some conditioner left in, and it was semi-dry.

Looks totally different!  I like!  And ladies, high buns are very on-trend for the summer. You can mix it up by using a patterned scarf and some tangerine lips. I am wearing this style in Turkey right now!

What do you think? What other ways do you make  your high bun???

Laters!!!

School’s over, and summer hours at work have begun.  You get the itch to take ah l’il vacation.  Here are a few items that I packed in my summer vacation beauty kit!

  • Unii palette with refills –  I got this super cute, hard case palette at the makeup show (gifted) and I really like it to place some of my favourite colours to give me a quick daytime or nighttime dinner look.  This palette can hold lots of refill pans including Make Up For Ever, M.A.C. and Inglot.  Just toss in in your bag and you don’t have to worry about your eyeshadows breaking or having to cart a whole bunch of them!

I'm ready to go to the "Beach" with Zoya!

Award winning makeup artist and the blenderella himself Kevin James Bennett recently collaborated with Royal & Langnickel, to create artist quality, synthetic makeup brushes.  As makeup artists and enthusiasts, we are always on the lookout for that one amazing brush that can do everything and be durable for years and KJ Bennett helped create a line of brushes that might just fit that bill!!! For some reason, makeup artist brushes tend to be inferior in quality as compared to those make for painters (especially those using oil paints).   Artist brushes can withstand being soaked in paint, turpentine, alcohol etc, without losing its integrity.  R&L have used state-of-the-art materials to produce a wide array of long-lasting brushes.
