Razzle-Dazzle is a Must!: New Obsessions Reviving Old Habits

Basically, I have a love for makeup that will never die. But I also love sleep, mom time, snacking on various foods and desserts, blogging, browsing social media, writing and getting household things done. So... how do I fit a full face of makeup into that? Well, the truth is, I used to prioritize makeup into my day and slowly but surely allowed it to be phased out... mainly by laziness. Before I even get started, i'd give myself 50 reasons why I don't have the time or energy to snatch my face. I think all busy women are guilty of this at least sometimes.. probably not as often as me though.
Well, I saw a few folks post that they were super into this new app called Makeup Social, and how it was this magical place where makeup lovers both artists and not, could share looks, product reviews, get makeup advise, etc. OF COURSE I need to be there! I went to my google store and searched...and searched... and searched... but nothing."Wait... nothing? Oh, I see. Only available for iphone. So i'm being punished for having an old ass galaxy s3 with a cracked screen that I got as an upgrade last year because i'm cheap and wanted to not pay for a new phone? So the ppl at makeup social are targeting me because i'm cheap?! I see how it is! I don't even want that app!"...was my response.
So, I searched more and found that they have an actual website that you can log onto www.themakeupsocial.com so I signed up there. The website isn't the easiest to navigate through. I get emails alerting me of comments on my posts but no alert for when someone mentions or tags me. I can't simply search for a person or even get a look at my profile as others see it without going through some extra steps. And I can't post photos of my previous looks or work. If I go to upload a photo, the only option I have is to take a photo right then and there to post. These things made me not like the website as much as I knew I could and it made me wish upon a star that they'd hurry the hell up with the android version of the app... But I, somehow, have still managed to slowly become OBSESSED with this site! This network of MUA's both freelance, like myself and MUA's that work at counters and makeup stores... girls who have jobs outside of the beauty industry but love makeup.. people who were just as cheap as me and shopped the non-high-end brands and made magic happen with them as well as the girls who can't live without their MAC. People who are just starting out in getting makeup right and people who have been doing this for years. It's amazing.
This site seriously revived my want for putting on a full face even when I have nowhere to go... mainly because of the fact that I can only post pictures of makeup that's happening right then and there, but also because these are the people who appreciate a good beat down. Lol! So, instead of product details, i'll just post some pics here of makeup that only got done so I could post a decent selfie on Makeup Social. And if there's any looks you'd like info on, comment below which one (s) and i'll do a separate post for them.
