Haha not having seen Notebook is a real female tragedy. You may need a water proof mascara for that movie though, just saying.
Beautiful look as always, thanks for posting <3
Omygah I watched it (with my mother actually!). We both sobbed, SO SAD š
x
I feel sad for those who have missed out The Notebook, that is the best movie ever :'(
I love the look that you’ve created! Going to wear it! š
“Notebook” is a very beautiful and touching story. You might need some Kleenex tissues at hand. š
And… um… you really need to make that video on how you make these wonderful photos that you post, you look like an actress in Vogue magazine.
Do you mean a how-to on portrait photography? I’m no expert but there will be a post on that soon š x
*whispers* I’ve not seen The Notebook either.
I watched it! Definitely recommend, very sad but very moving. xx
I am taking a few tips from this video:
-I have that MAC palette and I have been grumbling about the formula being so thick and stiff HA! I was using your typicla concealer brush so I might try a fluffy brush just like you did
-that hair trick was very neat and perfect for hair styling failures like myself!
ps: I so envy you your Rae Morris brushes!
Yes, definitely try a fluffy synthetic or goat brush for the concealer, much better application that way.
Stupid easy hair is my go-to š

Hi Karima,
Love love love your work !! I have naturally very puffy under eye bags. I’ve tried tea bags et all but no effect. Any good tricks to minimize them?
Love,
Anna
Hey Anna,
That’s a tricky one, minimising salt and alcohol intake helps. Cold spoons can reduce puffiness to a certain degree.
If it’s genetic then the best tip I can offer is: opt for an undereye concealer than is no lighter than your complexion and avoid light reflective concealer. You want to minimise the amount of light reflected in that area.
xx
How do you get your hands on the Mac palette?
I believe it’s a pro product, perhaps call your local pro store. xx
Do you need to be THAT PRETTY?! Love all of your videos
<3 too kind!
Ok, what is it with my love for your nail polish selections recently?! Do tell, what are you wearing on your nails in this video?? BTW, love this look!
So, I can’t read obviously, otherwise I would have seen where you listed what nail polish you were wearing! Sorry! Disregard my question. š
Haha not a worry š I always list this in the Youtube description box and the blog post.
