Look of the Week: KissyFace Returns

Yes, I've been bad but I'm back on track. I sure did enjoy the min-vaca but it really threw me off course but nonetheless, I've returned to my love. :-)

Better late than never, right?

Here's a pic that I took last week for a look that I wore to work.


On my eyes I have:
main lid- Pollinator by MAC
crease- No. 99 ( a powder blush) by Makeup Forever
lower lashline- Ransom by Urban Decay

And on my lips I wore Queen Bee lipglass by MAC

Tomorrow, I'll be posting the overly delayed pics from a couple of friends graduations back in May. And the rest of the week are the posts I've promised.

Much love & many blessings,
B. Pierre

Out of Town Derailment

Hey All!

Yes, I've been ghost once again. A trip that was initially for two days turned into a five-day vacation with cousins I haven't seen in years. Traveling through Jacksonville, followed by a 36-trip to South Florida to visit the my mom and brother took up my time from Sunday to Tuesday. And for the past two days I've been trying to catch up with other daily things. But I have lots to update with you on tomorrow! It'll be very pic heavy.

XOXO & many blessings,

Handling My Biz: Certified Am I?

Even though I'm self-taught I'm considering on becoming certified, just to make myself more credible to clientele. More importantly I really want to be taught by masters in the game of make-up.

After getting a hot tip from Kandee, I learned about this make-up school in Boca Raton, FL where I proceeded to make a phone call to learn more about what the school has to offer. After speaking with the director of admissions, I learned that the course is a 20-hour weekend event. Within the span of Friday, Saturday and Sunday for about 6-7 hours per day I'd get a crash course on a variety of topics.

From what I remember she mentioned that we'd learn about corrective techniques, sterilization, business practices/ethics, custom color blending and a long list of other things that escapes me at the moment. Most impressively, they're a M.A.C. Academy so I know their school is respected and credible. And a bonus is that by the end I'd be M.A.C pro card holder. That wasn't the only thing that impressed me, it was their attention to the students. The class sizes are limited to 6-8 students, which allots for more opportunities for one-on-one training with the instructor.

And with such a stellar opportunity comes a stellar price, which is set at ::drum roll please:: $1,495. Yes, that is a lot but comparing to other schools I've researched and what I'm trying to pursue, this price is not too shabby. I don't have time to go to school for months or weeks, I'm a full-time student for goodness sakes so this seems like the perfect fit.

I must admit, looking over my previous post from this past weeks, I've got some $$expensive$$ plans ahead. But that doesn't deter me one bit. It actually really encourages me to take the appropriate steps to make sure I am able to make the them happen.

Even though I'm still in the thinking phase of this idea, but I'm heavily considering it. Any opinions? Comments? I'd love to hear your thoughts.

Have a great Thursday everyone. As for me I'm up bright and early getting things done for my classes, taking care of KissyFace Artistry affairs and general chores followed by a night at work.

XOXO & many blessings,
B. Pierre

P.S. Tomorrow's post: Eyes, Lips, Face. :-)

Look of the Week: Cheri, I Adore Thee

Just to ease myself back into blogging, I'll keep this post short and sweet. My last week was a little more than I bargained for but my first week on the job went well. As for my exam it wasn't what I expected but what is a girl to do? No need to stress over it. What's done is done.

Well the title is referring to the Spiced Chocolate quad from the Cult of Cherry Collection that I used in the look below. Get it? Cheri and Cherry? Yes, I know I'm lame but I thought it was cute. :-)


I wore this look last week. All the colors came from that quad. And with having a new job, I'm wearing make-up on what seems to be a daily basis. So I might make it a daily addition to the blog. I'm still debating. I'm always rushing before work so it may or may not be a good idea to add something else to my laundry list of daily to-do's.

Stay tuned! I missed my little blog so much and those of you who take the time to read my posts. I truly appreciate it., which also relates to the blog title :-)

More post to come!

XOXO & many blessings,
B. Pierre

P.S. I was wearing a tube top. Pics can be so deceiving... lol

Handling My Biz: Skool Daze

As soon as I got into the swing of daily blogging, school and work came in to ruin the fun. I've got a huge exam on Monday, business finance, and I just started a new job this previous Monday. So with studying and the long hours of orientation/ training, something's got to give and unfortunately it's the blog at the moment. :-(

By next Wednesday,after the exam and a settled work schedule, KissyFace Artistry will be back to regularly scheduled programming. It's official I'm a blogging fanatic and I dare not turn away now. :-)

Here are some of the future posts that'll be up next week. They're not in order though.
Handling My Biz: Certified Am I?
Clientele Highlight: Crossing the Stage
Kit Building 101: Eyes, Lips, Face
Look of the Week: Cheri, I adore Thee

I like to have non-traditional titles, well, because I'm quirky that way.

Be back next week.:-)

XOXO & many blessings,
B. Pierre
