Pose.

Seeing is not enough; you have to feel what you photograph

Once you have bought all of your makeup now is the time to put your talents on display. Book a photoshoot for yourself or significant other.

Documenting your progress of your passion while you are exploring and creating. Is one of the best motivations to keep creating.

Once you’ve painted the picture; created your stills. It is the time to finally pay it forward. Start that Youtube channel you’ve been wanting to do.

Even start with a blog. No matter the medium in which you like to create.

Just be you and create.

Love Always,

Dottie.

Galactic Beauty: A Rebirth of Creativity

Hey Hey Everyone!! Welcome back.

As you know this past October now November is frigid cold this year!!BRRRR! So to beat the cold I had dabbled in a few different activities this month that lead to this galactic makeup look. I wanted to be a rendition of a SMURF but painting myself blue last minute was not my ideal situation.

However, with the help of @TheClayPen this post is sponsored!! They are a small company currently located in West Hartford CT, perfect location around the kids museum, and numerous bars and restaurants. Perfect for a Friday night date night. They are currently in the works of opening their second location in Manchester CT. All of their classes are affordable as some are starting at $8. I know WILD.

So I drew inspiration from two things this year. Pinterest and @TheClayPen.

I love the color blue and what it represents. Blue evokes feelings of calmness and spirituality as well as security and trust. Seeing the color blue causes the body to create chemicals that are calming. It is no surprise that it’s the most favored of the colors.

Taking the time I have to really dig around in my creative juices. I have found that I LOVE makeup. School not so much; but makeup I do know.

You see that blend honey. {YASSSSS}.

I decided to pair the look with a blue wig and a Dream On top; thanks to Aliexpress. With the help of my James Charles Palette x Morphe, Jaclyn Hill x Morphe; I decided to conquer the challenge of the Galaxy.

I turned quite a few heads with the fact the blue wig pulled the whole look together! I felt like a star in the night sky, {ironic since the galaxy is painted on my face}.

I and the @theclaypen; are here not only to show you a resource but to show you be daring and push yourself past the limit. Take it from a small town girl, that started out practicing on her own face, every night after hours of classes.

Makeup is my escape…what is yours?

Till next time! Be creative, be positive and pass the word on. Bye my loves.

XOXO

She’s Back!!

Hey Everyone!! Welcome back!!

It’s your girl Dottie. I am here to just to remind you that my first video is live! Well not my first ever video. No. Might as well be!

I have taken a lot of time for myself; evaluating the content that I want to create. I needed to find my passion with creativity again; but that will be for a later video.

However, I would so appreciate it if you guys would at least go and subscribe and like the video. I want to be open with you guys and really let down my walls. I want us to be a close knit family. This space is to remain positive and safe; for all to come and enjoy the content.

So without too much waffle. I hope you would love to follow me through my journey with blogging, and vlogging. We are dabbling in it all. Feedback is appreciated and welcomed.

Again, thank you for being apart of my journey every step of the way. You have been the truest supporters.

Thank you for believing in me and letting my creativity speak.

Lots of Love

XOXOXO

Dottie.
