New Year's Makeover

Happy Monday Chicas! I'm so glad to be off work for the MLK holiday; it was great to sleep in a little bit! For today's post, I wanted to share with you a makeover I did for my friend Tiffany on New Year's Eve. She was going to church for the evening (not the club, lol) and wanted to go into the New Year with a new look.

It was a last minute makeover, literally. And this was a kind of a dramatic change for Tiffany because she doesn't really wear makeup. It was also a bit of a challenge for me because I had to mix a few foundation colors to get an exact match since she has somewhat uneven skin tone. Halfway through the application I was thinking, "Okay, this is not turning out right! What am I gonna do???" But, then I remembered some of the secret tips of makeup artists and I was able to pull the final look together. Whew! In the end, I think it came out fabulous and more importantly, Tiffany loved it! Here are the before and after pics:
