About Me

Hi I'm Melissa and I am obsessed with makeup! I have created this blog as my ECMP 355 Final Project. Enjoy!

Makeup Products

I created this Glogster to share my favourite beauty products of the moment. Also, I decided to create a video to supplement the pictures of the products.  I was hoping to provide some examples of high quality products for anyone who is, or wants to be, interested in makeup.  Obviously, I have not tried every makeup product on the market, but I have tried many and found that these ones stood out among the others. This is the first video I have ever created and I used Windows Live Movie Maker.  The program was easy to use but it took me a few hours of playing around to figure everything out. I definitely recommend using this program if you want something that is simple yet effective.
Enjoy!:)


Here is the video that I created to supplement my Glogster.

Getting Started
Here are some products that I recommend considering if you are interested in getting started with makeup.  These products are not necessarily my favourite products because I decided to choose inexpensive products.  Therefore, you will not have wasted a lot of money on a product that you later decide you do not want to use. All of these products are good quality for the price. Please watch the above video to view my favourite products, which includes products at various prices.

Pressed Powder Foundation - Cover Girl Tru Blend Pressed Powder
Lip Balm - Burt's Bees Beeswax Lip Balm
Blush - CoverGirl Cheekers Blush
Mascara - Maybelline Volum' Express One-by-One
Eyeshadow - Maybelline ExpertWear Eyeshadow
Lipgloss - Revlon ColorBurst
Eyeliner - Annabelle Eyeliner
