Get ready with me video

Screen Shot 2014-10-15 at 10.31.36A few weeks ago, I gave a shout out on Facebook to see what you guys would like to see featured on The Beautiful Truth.  There was so many brilliant suggestions, but one comment that caught my attention was to post about how I get ready for a night out. I love finding out how people prepare themselves for a night on the tiles and how they do their hair and makeup.I have picked up so many ideas from posts like this and it got me thinking and I decided to try something new.

While getting ready for the Blog Awards a few weeks ago, I decided to film myself getting ready. I included every thing from hair, to skin prep and makeup. It takes me around 90 minutes, on a good day, to get myself presentable for a big night out. I have condensed the whole thing down into a 14 minute video.  This is my very first time trying something like this and I am not gonna lie I am more than a little bit nervous, so go easy on me. I am still learning about camera angles. lighting etc. I am also not a qualified MUA, so while I might not be technically correct in how i do things, it works for me.

I would love to know what you lovely lot think and if there is anything else you would like to see featured in future posts. Enough yapping out of me and I will just leave you with the video below.

 

UPDATE: Due to the music included in the video, the video won’t play on android devices!!! I’m trying desperately to fix it at the moment, so stick with me. It will play on apple devices and desktops

Blank Canvas Master Series One Palette Tutorial

I am not normally one for tutorials. In fact, I tend to avoid them like the plague. I often feel that my lack of qualifications in makeup, makes me hold back in showing how I apply my makeup. However, I’ve come to the realisation, that qualifications are not a big deal for things like youtube. So I have decided to give tutorials another go. As I tend to flash the other products that I use quite quickly, I thought I would tell you a little about them here. Push Rudy Nudy You may have heard me talk about this product before, but this is honestly one of the best, if not…

Disappointing Products

At the beginning of the year, I posted a video on products that left me feeling a little on the disappointed side. So many of you loved that video and have requested an updated version of it. Over the past few months I have compiled a list of products that just didn’t do it for me and some that left me feeling very hard done by after parting with my hard earned cash and I thought it only fair that I should share these products with you guys. With all the products that I try out every week there are bound to be a few that leave me wanting more.…

Summer Makeup Tutorial

A number of weeks ago, I posted a picture tutorial on a copper smoky eye. A number of you have contacted me since, asking me to do another post like this, so finally here it is. All of you know already, that I have no formal training in makeup, so there may be some technical things that aren’t right, but to be honest, I like it and I have gotten many compliments on this particular look. The look I chose, was the one I wore in my Glossybox Youtube Video. This is a 2 colour look, that will suit all eye colours, but seriously makes blue eyes pop. It is the perfect…

The Mac Haul

Seriously, could I milk these haul videos anymore? I have finally edited my final haul for you guys and this time it is packed full of products that you can actually get in Ireland, so be warned. This will not be good for your bank account, but if it is any consolation, you will look fabulous!! I’m sure there will be people wondering why I bought so much Mac when it is available in Ireland. Well here’s the thing. It is quite a bit cheaper in the States then it is on our fair Isle. Yes like everything else, we seem to be a soft touch for the extra few…
