A Splash of Color by VeneetaS

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.

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.

Hi everyone,



Welcome to my first day of blogging. Here is where you will find me talking about make up and everything that has to do about make up. I will be informing you on company sales and new products, like as of yesterday Coastal Scents launched 2 new brushes. A new foundation brush with a much shorter handle then there regular foundation brush and it only cost $5.95 US and a new liner brush called the angled liner pro art detail brush which cost $2.49 US. They have also added 7 new mica's and pigments to there collection. As of July 1, 2009 they also dropped there prices on all of there make up palettes.



Sephora has opened 2 new stores in Vancouver, BC Canada, as of July 10/09 and a new opening in Quebec Canada on July 17/09
