Boho Chic Make-Up How-To (Bilingual English/Português)

Make-up: Miss Emanulle Souza Model: Luana Barros Photography: Edney Suiter Photography Styling: Isabela Cury

I'll admit, this post has been a long time coming. It's been in the works for longer than I care to admit. Life sometimes gets in the way of our artistic endeavors, and I wanted to be able to post this as a bilingual article, because Miss Emanuelle's fan base is primarily Brazilian. It seems like the respectful thing to do. So I apologize for the (very long) delay and I am so thankful for Miss Emanuelle, or as her friends call her "Manu" (isn't that cute?) and all her hard work on helping get this article going!

 In Brazil they speak Portuguese (or as they spell it, Português), so I am very excited that the how-to portion of this post will be featured in both English and Portuguese.


Make-up: Miss Emanulle Souza Model: Luana Barros Photography: Edney Suiter Photography, Styling: Isabela Cury

Miss Emanuelle is a beautiful and talented make-up artist located in Rio De Janeiro, Brazil. Here she shares a step by step how-to create the eye make-up look from the Brazilian Bohemian photoshoot post we featured in mid October with the amazingly talented Edney Suiter Photography and fashion styling by the beautiful Isabela Cury.


Now, on to the how-to!


Miss Emanuelle's glamourous make-up design face chart 
But first, a (tiny) interview:

Selena: How did you come up with this look?

Manu: I created the makeup look face chart inspired by the proposal of Boho Chic, clothing, nature, and my ideas. 

Selena: What products did you use?

Manu: Here's a list of products I used...

Kryolan Foundation Dermacolor
MAC concealer
MAC Paintpot
Jasmyne 3D Eyeshadow Palette
Emerald Shadow Mary Kay
Blush Mary Kay Limited Edition
Mascara Maybelline Colossal Cat Look
Eudora Color Lipstick Cabernet (a Brazilian brand)

How-To:


(English)


1- After preparing the skin with foundation, apply Paintpot by Mac on your eye using a synthetic brush.
2- Apply the (light green) eyeshadow from the Jasmyne 3D palette on your lid. Use a natural or synthetic brush for the shadow.
3- Don't forget to apply eyeshadow in the inner corner of your eyelid.
4- In center of eye  apply eyeshadow Gold . Use a small synthetic brush.
5- Apply Mary Kay Emerald eyeshadow using Mary Kay collection brush for the crease.
6- Blend eyeshadow into your crease using MAC 224 blend brush.
7- Finish by applying 3 layers of mascara on the eyelashes, being careful to get all the lashes around the eye (no strays!).
8- I used blush pink cherry tone to highlight the apples and match the tone of lipstick, following the proposal Autumn / Winter Boho Chic MakeLook.
9- On the lips, I used the Brazilian brand Eudora Cabernet lipstick. It combines well with darker colors of lipstick in shades of grape, wine and even brown. It is chic, looks great! 

Selena's note: I would love to get my hands on this lipstick, but I can't seem to find it in the USA. :(  You can create a similar effect with a deep purplish toned pink color in matte or light shimmer, or blend a few to create a similar berry toned color if you are like me and you don't have access to this brand because you are outside of Brazil! 


Check out Eudora on Twitter @Eudora. Maybe if I hint, they will send me a tube of this fabulous lipstick! Shameless plug! ;)




(Português)


1 - Depois de preparar a pele com base, aplique Paintpot da MAC em todo o olho. Use pincel sintético.
2 - Aplique a sombra verde da paleta jasmyne 3D em sua pálpebra móvel. Use pincel para sombra ou pincel sintético.
3 - Aplique a sombra também na parte de baixo dos olhos.
4 - No centro do olho aplique sombra Ouro da paleta jasmyne 3D. Use um pequeno pincel sintético.
5 - Aplicar a sombra Emerald da Mary Kay em seu côncavo. Use pincel para côncavo da coleção Mary Kay.
6 - Esfume a sombra no côncavo. Use pincel para esfumar MAC 224.
7 - Finalizando aplicando 3 camadas de Máscara para cílios em baixo e em cima.
8 - Eu usei blush na cor cereja para destacar as maçãs e combinar com o tom de batom, seguindo o Outono / Inverno e a proposta do Makelook Editorial Boho Chic.
9 - Nos lábios, eu usei o batom Cabernet da marca brasileira Eudora. Combine também com tons mais escuros de uva, vinho e até mesmo marrom. É chique, fica lindo!

Sao Paulo Fashion Week Hits The Subway!

Shout out to all my Brazilian friends. It's Sao Paulo Fashion Week!

Huffpost covered the smart marketing ploy here, where fashion designers debuted their styles on the streets and in the subway:





















Do you think this makes fashion accessible to the masses or does it taunt the ever growing gap between the rich and the poor? You decide! Regardless, it's a brilliantly creative way to get worldwide press! Mission successful! 

Let me know what you think! Do you like it?

EXCLUSIVE Brazilian Pop Star,"Bad Girl" Natalia Damini Leak

Screen shot of EXCLUSIVE VIDEO LEAK, See below for video.
Brazilian pop star, Natalia Damini gets a boost with her first commercial EP release as she pairs up with Grammy nominee rappers Shop BOYZ (best known for "Party Like A Rock Star " , and partnerships with Beyonce on The Experience Tour). Two versions of the single are set for release November 1 by Concore Entertainment, in partnership with Universal Music Group, executive producer Charve The Don. In addition to its SHOP BOYZ version, the new single will feature a remix with newly recorded guitars and drums, trading in the pop flavor for a rock sound. The Tranzformaz of Los Angeles who produced the single also worked with Natalia on the track " Never Say Goodbye."
Natalia Damini announced via social media that she will release a new music video by VEVO in the first half of 2014 but she sent me this link personally and asked me to promote it. She's such a sweetie, and if you are a pop fan (a la Gaga, Kesha, and the likes) you would love her too, so how could I refuse?

Also featured on the EP are two other tracks: "Cannot Be Without U," and "Kiss It," a remix which ranked #1 on the charts in Canada. So here it is, the "EXCLUSIVE OFFICIAL LEAK" with snippets from all the tracks of her EP, which will be available on iTunes November 1! http://youtu.be/GmPYOA_m6Bc

                 


You can watch the Bad Girl lyric video on VEVO here:

Believe In Your Dreams!

I am very excited to announce my personal style blog launch!


I came up with the idea for this blog about people who are connected by some tiny thread across the globe. A diverse group around the world makes up the people I am proud to call my friends, mis amigosmeus amigosmes amisels meus amicsmoi przyjaciele and, well, you get the idea! It's amazing what technology can do to connect us across seemingly impossible distances!

Connected Across the Globe


I am lucky to have several guest bloggers and featured friends from around the world lined up to contribute, including several posts by Brazilian metal singer/songwriter,Raquel Schuler of Hydria !

That's me, in a field in Arkansas for an impromptu photo shoot Photography: Kristin V. Necklace: Forever 21


So how do you know me?


You may know me in real life or from my Linkedin discussion board moderation, MPDClick Trend Journal guest contributor posts, or my other blog, Saving With Selena whose theme, though near and dear to my heart, severely limited my choices of blog topics. At Saving With Selena I focus on tips for simple ways to save money and be sustainable with a secondary life hacks/re-purposing theme.

Here I can firmly plant my head in a cloud of beautiful things.

 We all love to dream, right?

Photography and editing by me, Selena Marie <3

This blog will utilize my dreamier, artistic skills and will hopefully give me a chance to interview people I admire. I am hoping this blog will inspire me to get my feet wet again in photography - something I miss very much.

Capturing someone's essence with a camera has a way of reaching beyond personal barriers to show inner and outer beauty.

My greatest passion is people (it's cheesy, I know, but it's true). I strive to make a connection with at least one person every day. This blog will give me another avenue to help people in my own way through positive imagery and written content.   I hope this blog becomes a resource for anyone who is looking for inspiration, style tips, or just an escape to something beautiful.

You are important to me- you, the kindred spirit across the globe who reads my posts, the person I met on a discussion board, the friends who support my dreams, the stranger I've never met, the ones who keep in touch via the magic of technology. Thank you for believing in me. I believe in you too! I am looking forward to sharing all of our dreams and hopefully a few pretty photos along the way. ;)

As my friends in Brazil say, "Beijos!"

XOXO,

Selena Marie
