Bobbi Brown Make Up Manual For Everyone From Beginner To Pro

Evening everyone tonight I am going to do a post on this amazing book that I asked for Christmas. 

If you have read my blog before or if you are starting to read them now then you will know I love make up and cosmetics so it was only natural that I asked for this for Christmas.

And man I am glad I did as its a fantastic book really informative.

Lets start of by saying how vibrant and amazing the pictures are that

 within the book, stunning right.....

Stunning right even with the flash not full on in my i phone.

Lets give a bit of background on Bobbi Brown for those that might not know to much about her first.

Bobbi Brown is an American Make up Artist aged 59 and was born in Chicago, Illinois on April 14th 1957.

She is also the founder and CCO of Bobbi Brown Cosmetics.

She studied at Emerson College in Boston then headed to New York to become a make up artist.

Her first ten lipsticks launched in 1991 in New York City and were an instant Success.

Then Bobbi Brown companies was acquired by Estee Lauder companies.

More than 20 years after the debut of her brand she is continuing to this day improving and adding to her brilliant empire.

Also in 2013 Bobbi launched the Pretty Powerful Campaign for Woman & Girls which is a global initiative dedicated to funding non profit organisations that strive to empower woman an girls through education which is amazing.

Moving onto the book as it says on the cover its for everyone from a complete beginner to make up to the professional out there so its the perfect gift  to receive I would also say that its informative even for those not overly into make up.

 The book is broken down into these fabulous chapters so you can go ahead and read the book cover to cover or if there is a more particular content that your interested in then you can just pop to that section which is great.

It covers a great topic in every chapter for all types interested.

Bobbi has written 8 books in total and I am very much looking forward to adding them to my collection, This book is totally informative and very interesting. 

I highly suggest that if you are either interested in make up just in general or like to read about make up artists then pick up this book.

I even more so recommend it if your thinking of becoming a make up artist yourself as it will help you out immensely as well as doing the training as well.

I will be talking more about this book on my you tube channel at some point so will show more of the chapter.

I love the style of this book its broken down in an easy to understand manner and fantastically written with clear insight into the industry.

Its the make up dictionary and encyclopedia rolled into one!!. 

I hope you have enjoyed my post and that it encourages those who love make up as much as I do to go out there and purchase the book.

I believe it was bought from amazon, but you can also get it from Bobbi brown stores and counters also.

Nars Sheer Glow Foundation

Hello guys I am back with a post on my new love which is the Nars Sheer Glow Foundation.

I decided to get a sample of this in November and used it all and totally fell in love the stories about it are all so good.

I bought mine from http://www.feelunique.com

It cost £32.oo for 3oml and it comes in 19 shades, the colour I am is Santa Fe which is a medium peachy undertone.

This is me with the foundation on and I just love it.

This is it the now after a few hours and I like the way it looks on my face it just look slightly radiant. ( I LOOK MISERABLE, BUT I'M NOT)! 

Nars Sheer Glow is natural radiant foundation with build able coverage that evens skin tone and also hydrating.

This foundation is suitable for  

normal

normal- dry

dry skin

The formula contains anti- oxidants and turmeric extract to improve skins radiance and skin tone.

The think that's not great about it is there is no pump with the product you can purchase it separately  for about 3 pounds.

It is also fragrance free which is great for those who have sensitive skin.

I think I can safely say I will re purchased this item and hope to have it in my collection for a long time.

It is thee best dewy foundation I have found out there, I bought the Armani Luminous Silk one and it doesn't come close to this foundation total over the moon with my purchase.

I have recently started a you tube channel Julie Barbour is how you will find me in the search engine on you tube.   

I am by no means a professional on writing blogs or doing you tube, but least i'm giving it a go eh. 

So go have a look on you tube for my videos, like subscribe and share and leave the love and support.

thanks guys and have a fab weekend 

much love julie xxx
