Piercing Style: Guest Blogger: Shannelle & her 6 Makeup Looks

Shannelle is one of my really close friends from high school & I call her my "daughter" all the time b/c we have the same last name, LOL. She's also an otaku like me & Mimi and knows a little bit of Koren + French as well. Her personality is really bubbly & she will always have you laughing when you hang out with her. She also likes to take a lot of pictures or at least she takes more than one every couple of months like me, LOL. Shannelle also was in ROTC even though she has Asthma & stays in shape by running and exercising with her friends.

I know her older sister has natural hair & she was/is thinking about transitioning, so you might get to see her again in a Hair blog next time if she goes through with it =) But for now she'll be doing a Beauty blog & sharing some of her makeup looks with you b/c like me she's been getting more into makeup lately & I thought it'd be a great idea to feature her on here after seeing all of her hard work and progress.

Questions

What is your style of makeup & how do you like to do it?

My style of makeup is the..flashy, but not so flashy type I would say. I like to make this look with fun colors that I think are great for my skin tone.

Where do you get your makeup inspirations from?

I got my inspiration from a group called Black Gyaru of The World that was introduced to me by my friend Momo. I got into it because I wanted to make my eyes look bigger and then I started playing with my makeup and decided to post my looks.

Why is Cover Girl your favorite makeup brand?

I wouldn't say it's my favorite because I just went to to the store and picked up some products. I didn't know what I was doing, but I like Cover Girl a lot because the shadows go on so smoothly and the eyeliner is spectacular, also the mascara is just amazing!

And is there anything else you'd like to say?

I had a lot of fun doing this =)
