Imats Blog

In one word, IMATs was amazing. so amazing its taken me nearly two weeks to write my imats blog.

We arrived on the friday and set up the wolfe fx stand, it looked amazing so bright and colorful. The wolfe colours looked amazing.
Saturday the 29th January was a early start and very soon the show was mega busy, we met some amazing people and had such a great time. On the sunday the gorgeous and very lovely joanndeliah came and lent a hand on the stand which was great to have a extra pair of hands. There were so many exhibitors from Kryolan and Graftobianto illusion ,it was so busy i did not get much time to leave the stand, but I did manage to get some a lovely new make up mirror in a flight case. In one word, IMATs was amazing
. I didn't get any many pictures at all (boo!) but I'm sure you have seen many pictures on other blogs.

ben nye cream stack up

If you travel a lot or only have limited storage available, stackableBen Nye cream makeup will be an essential addition to your makeup kit. No matter which color you choose or however many you purchase, each Ben Nye cream stack up container will screw into another - giving you a simple and neat transportation & storage solution.

Review on the ben nye color stack ups on make up ally.
“One of the most inexpensive and versatile products in the market. These creme colors are around $2.50-$4 each and you really only need the primaries: black, white, red, blue, yellow. It does pretty much everything as foundation/lipstick/eye shadow/eye liner. Having this product got me though a lot of beauty buy urges, like orange lipstick or dark purple lipstick (yes I'll probably use those two products once in my life). Instead of buying those, I just simply mixed some Ben Nye colors together and used it on my lips. I staying power is much better than regular lipstick too. Since they are soo pigmented, they also look better though they are a little drying so bring out the aquafore “

How to make it look like you have cut of your finger.

Roll the wax into a sausage and then join the ends to make a ring of wax. Press the ring of wax into position; making sure the skin is clean and dry.

Using a tiny bit of moisturiser on your fingertip (enough to stop the wax sticking to your finger and no more) blend the outside edges of the ring of wax, you should not be too precise as slightly rough edges look more realistic. 

Give the wound a jagged edge, and with the bruise wheel add the bruising. 

Don’t forget to add bruising to the other fingers and nails on the hand. 

Add a bit of cotton wool to the center of the wound blood .

Add blood to the center of the wound .

With the wounded finger bent hold a few sheets of tissue paper to cover the rest of the finger. 

Simple but effective look!
