Merry Christmas everyone! Hope Santa brought you all what you wanted.
I haven't been around for awhile but I'm back now and I will be making a new makeup video in the next couple of days.
I plan on doing my video's a little different then I have been.
I will be taking away the music from the beginning, because I found it to be annoying and would turn the sound off before watching. So if I was doing that what were other people doing? Plus I'm the one that picked the music...lol
There will also be some little changes here and there. I haven't worked them all out yet.
I hope you all have a wonderful New Year.
We have no plans for New Years Eve but there is a Three Stoogest Marathon on NYE!
Have a good one everyone and please stay safe.

Hi everyone, Happy October to you all.












I finally made a new make up tutorial for YouTube and plan on getting a few more up.These are the pictures from that tutorial using green and purple with a little pink.





The room I film my tutorials in is a small room but it gets so hot and with the summer we had here the room was roasting and would take me a couple of hour to film because I would have to go and cool down. But now the weather is a bit cooler and the room is not over heating so it more comfortable to film in with the big bright lights.





I will be putting up another make up contest soon, once I figure out what the contest will be about.





If you have any request for me to make a tutorial then please leave the request here in the comment section or email me at veneeta5@live.ca






I will put a list down below of all the products i used to get this look. It's not one of my normal looks. This one is not all out there like my others but this one was so simple and very soft looking I really liked it and have worn it out lately with many compliments. I don't normally wear black on my waterline but it certainly made a nice difference when I did it for this video, I will be doing that a little more from now on.


Here is the products I used to get this look:


Too Face Shadow insurance

NYX Lime Pearl Mania

MAC's Viz-A-Violet Pigment

MAC's Pinked Mauve Pigment

MAC's Pink Opal Pigment

Maybelline Unstoppable eyeliner in onyx

Rimmels Soft Kohl liner in White

Quo false eye lashes #803

L'Oreal Telescopic mascara in Black Brown

NYX Diamond Sparkle Lipstick in Sparkling Flower

Hi my dear lovelies, how are you this fine month of September?
My contest is CANCELLED as of September 17,2009.
I will be updating this later with more information about the cancellation.




My contest is up and in progress on YouTube.





I decided that the contest would be a Masquerade mask that you drew on your face using any kind of make up and you can use feathers, glitter, rhinestones and anything you can think of.


The picture I have above is me with a butterfly mask drawn on my face to give you an idea of what I want. You can copy a mask or come up with one all of your own. Here are the rules:





If you are 18 years or younger you must have a parent or guardians permission, so if you win, your parents don't have a problem with you giving me your address.


If using still photos, I want to see your progress from start to finish and the same goes for if you are sending in a video, I want to see every step by step of your work.You may enter 2 times but only 2 times. You MUST be a SUBSCRIBER of mine to be eligible to enter.The most important thing of all is to have fun.

The prizes that the winner will receive in the mail are: A 13 piece brush set from Coastal Scents and also the 78 eyeshadow,blush palette from Coastal Scents. These 2 prizes are great for someone that is new to the make up world as well as the girl with everything. These are 2 great prizes that I'm sure the winner will love.

If I don't have 15-20 entries to this contest then the contest will be cancelled and will be changed to something else that more people would want to enter. Because this takes an entire day to draw on the face. My picture above is nothing special but it took me all afternoon and most part of the evening to finish.If I don't receive a certain amount of subscribers by the 18Th of September then I will be changing the contest to something more fun to do.
I will update my blog with further information as the days go on.

A Splash of Color By VeneetaS




I hope you are having a wonderful day. My last make up tutorial on YouTube was quite colorful, a rainbow. I did have it named NYX Pearl Mania Rainbow but changed it to Cotton Candy Rainbow. It is the most interesting and sexy look I have done so far and it's my husbands favorite look. He thinks it is so sexy which makes me feel very good.

I'm not sure if I will get another tutorial uploaded on YouTube before my second contest starts. I'm planning on the contest to start on September 1, 2009. The winner is going to love the prizes we have. My husband is even excited about this contest and paid for one of the prizes. I'm not going to say what the prizes are because it's a surprise for when the contest starts which will run for about a month so you will have plenty of time to prepare for this. I'm sure you are going to have a lot of fun with this contest.

I am in the rehearsal mode of getting another tutorial ready to be filmed. So keep on a look out for my next video on YouTube. It could be a make up tutorial or it could be the next contest with great prizes. Hope to see you then.

Welcome to my Blog, My New and Improved Blog



I haven't been around for a bit, but now I am caught up on stuff and relaxed a little. I would think that all the make up companies would have their Fall Collections out by now.




I'm changing the way I use to do my blog. I may write a little about myself, but mostly it will have to do with what is going on with my channel on YouTube. No more about what company has a sale on, but if I see a sale that is worth telling about I will then let you know.



M.A.C. cosmetics will be coming out with a new collection around August 20Th, it is available in the UK already and I can't wait to get my hands on this collection. It's called the "Graphic Garden". I love the Black and White packaging and the colors are so fantastic. I haven't been interested in any of the collections since the "Hello Kitty" Collection. I will be buying everything in this collection.





I added a new make up tutorial to my YouTube channel called "NYX Pearl Mania Rainbow". I hope you all enjoy it. Here is the list of what I used:



Too Face Shadow Insurance



Scotch Tape



NYX Pearl Mania loose eyeshadow in :


Lime Pearl


Turquoise


True Purple Pearl


Very Pink Pearl


Pearl





L.A.Colors smudge proof liquid eyeliner in Black


Quo false eyelashes #803


Rimmel's Sexy Curve mascara in extreme black

Wednesday with Make up By VeneetaS

Hello there, Happy Hump day Wednesday.

I thought by now I would of had a new make up tutorial done and on YouTube. But I haven't even come close to making one.
We are going to the fireworks tonight. It should be great and we are having a heat wave so we won't be rained on this time like we were on Saturday.
I may of talked about this in another post but it is very important especially if you share your make up, is to sanitize it. All you need in rubbing alcohol and a small spray bottle to put the alcohol in. Then get all your eye shadows and spray them with the alcohol and let dry, it only takes a moment to dry. Do the same with your blushes. Now for your lipsticks. what you need to do is dip them in the alcohol for a few moments and let them dry. It's very simple and only takes a few minutes and does not harm your make up in any way. High end or low end make up.

Now lets see into the Make up World:

ELF=Eyes Lip Face is having a overstock sale on their
mineral lipsticks for 75% off.

Coastal Scents Have added a new product to their collection. They now have 5 pairs of false eye lashes. They are not on sale yet but coming soon.

Friday/Saturday with Make up By VeneetaS

Happy Friday to all,


Hope you are enjoying your Friday. We went to the fireworks Wednesday night and it was wonderful. We must of walked a mile from the Skytrain to the beach, but it was worth it. Saturday night we will be doing the same.


They turned off the hot water in the building that we live in on Thursday due to the boiler and said we hope to have the hot water back on Sunday. All I can say is "Relatives we are coming over to shower"


I'm hoping to have a new make up tutorial done by the beginning of the week. so look out for that one.


My contest ends tonight at midnight and the winner will be announce this following Monday. I certainly have had a bunch to chose from and it's been hard. What a great job everyone has done.



In the Make up World Today,

MAC cosmetics have 2 new collections called "Love that look" and "Baby Bloom"

'Love that look' has 12 beautiful limited eye shadows. Most of them in frosty or pearl shades. Plus it has 4 kohl-like PearlGlide eyeliners with a sparkly, reflective finish.

Wednesday with Make up By VeneetaS

Happy Hump day Wednesday,



It certainly has been warm and dry where I am. It's nice to see that summer has arrived. The room I film my tutorials in is actually our media room. All we have in there is a fan and when I am filming I turn it off so this little room starts to cook and I start to melt. So now I'm trying to figure a way that I can stay cool while I'm filming. My last 2 tutorials have been out there. So I'm thinking of doing a look that is softer and could be worn anywhere. Unless I get some request that is what I'll be doing. In my newer video's I am and will be using my Sigma Make up Brushes. The numbers on them are comparable with MAC Brushes. I really like these brushes and highly recommend them. They perform just as well as my MAC Brushes.

I know most women like to keep their brushes out on their vanity in a bowl but I keep all my brushes in a brush roll. Leaving them out lets dust and bacteria grow on them unless you wash them every other day, it's not that sanitary. I will give all my brushes a good wash once a week even if they haven't been used.

Tonight here in BC, Canada in the lower mainland at the beach called English Bay we are having a huge fireworks display. Different countries put on the fireworks. We have them tonight then on Saturday then the following Wednesday and then the finally the following Saturday. We usually make it to the 2 Saturdays but this year we are trying to make it to each night.
