My college course is coming to an end.

Hia everyone,
I havent got a load to tell you all this week because I havent been up to much except for college homework.
I had a lot that needed to be done and was quite behind. Its all done now though so I can get back in to doing what I enjoy which is my youtube, Barry m videos and also keeping up to date with you all because I do miss you and love those moments where I can stick around for video uploads and catch up with you all and say hia.

My college course is finished in two weeks so I will have that spare tuesday night for loads more videos :) I find that exciting yet sad because I will miss all the girls form my class who I have made "friends" yes friends with :) If you saw the BBC programme? Friends were not something I had. I mean I have the odd friend who I can say Hia to when I am out and about or when I go places I know a lot of the staff so I can have friendly chats with them.

I go to a local cafe often because I love coffee as you all may know and also there are some girls there who I realy get on with, But that word friend to me would be some one who you had total trust with and who would never let you down and I have to admit I havent come across some one like that often. There is one girl who I do get on great with and she has helped me out on several occasions when I have been at college and needed a client. She has came on time, been there, helped me and I cant thank her enough for that.


Im dead excited this week because I have been setting up all my payment systems for my new website. I plan on having a good sized website/store where I will be selling all sorts of luxury, bargain, basic and extravagent make up products & acsessories.
It will take a while to get everything in stock because I have a lot of saving to do but I am getting there and determined to make a good go of it for me and my little boy.

I will have every professional brush set that you could possibly need with every brush you can imagine in them. I have to say they are great and I have them already to be added to my new website store. I will be keeping a set of each and building my own collection from them for my own personal use and professional work use.
I hope to have my certificate from my beauty course so I can just hit the sky and do what I want as a registered make up artsist.
I have a wonderful feeling about this year and so far its been the best I can remember in a long while. A lot of whats happened is all down to you so I cant thank you all enough for that.

I will be using my sets I kept for my youtube and barry m tutorials so you will get to see them in action and what their uses are.

Take care everyone and speak to you all soon,
Lauren.

Sounds great that you made some friends x (my mum also has a black pug called Gabriel i got her hooked onto your videos, i'm hoping to spark her interest in make up again!)

I was hoping to do the same with my mam but that didnt happen :)
She isnt a make up person nor is my older sister so I dont realy have many people to share my interests with.

Hi Lauren! (from Phoenix, AZ U.S.)
Congrats on getting your certification soon!!
I was wondering if you could post close up pics of each brush set to show the different varieties that they come in?
Thanks for the great tutorials and your positive attitude.
Keep smiling,

Hey Lauren...

I was shocked at the prices of the brush sets because they are so affordable! I paid $25USD (and that was a friend-deal) for just 5 or 6 brushes - two eyeshadow, two blushers, one brow and something else....

Congrats on your success. I am bummed you are so far away (I'm in Vermont, USA)- I'd go to the Sex in the City movie with you!

Best wishes!

Jo

I know this is my 3rd comment in a row but i think you need more love. PLEASE READ: I THINK YOU ARE STUNNINGLY GORGEOUS. YOU ARE WAY BETTER THAN SOME SNOBBY MAKE UP ARTIST WHO CLAIMS TO HAVE HAD 6 YEARS OF TRAINING. YOU ARE A FANTASTIC PERSON. IF I WAS EVER LUCKY ENOUGH TO MEET YOU THAT WOULD BE THE HIGHLIGHT OF MY YEAR. LOVE ALWAYS. JESS x x x x x x :)

I'm so happy for you & I can hardly wait to see your new online store when it launches! (Note: Feel free to add a thread to FABB when your store launches so your fellow members will know about it.)

What a sweet post :) I honestly can relate to what you are saying about friends. I am not someone with many friends. I might have three people who I truely call FRIENDS and I do define them very similar to what you are saying... you can trust them no matter what. I also feel that they are friends cos they are close to my soul and are the only people who truely understand me. And even if they sometimes do they still love me with all the little faults that I have. And you deserve someone like this in your life too. You're a great person Lauren. Honestly. You're soul is beautiful. Keep it real... keep it clean. Keep doing what you're doing. You deserve the best in the world for yourself and your son. You're a beautiful person. And you deserve the very best there is out there for your career and your personal life. I can relate how much you love your make up course. I am studying massage. I just passed my Holistic massage course in May and I am absolutely delighted and very please. Right now I am studying sports massage and I am planning to do lots more like Indian Head and Reflexology etc etc. So I REALLY can relate to you :) Cos it took me years to get to the content place I am in right now... mentally and physically... take care lauren... Zoom zoom :)

I'm goint to a birthdayparty tonight. And as I have been doing these past 3 months, I of course went online on youtube.com and typed "Make up". And as always there you are with your fantastic tips and faboulous dialect! ;-)
I suppose I'm "a bit slow" and not very up to date on who's "IT" on youtube. But now, since I've seen the clip from BBC... I understand that you are one of the most popular. I don't know you personally, but I am very proud of you and happy on your behalf for your success! I want to congratulate you on your certificate and of course I hope that one day you'll be giving me the perfect party makeup, IRL, in your own beauty parlor (or what the **** it's called over there).Ha ha!;-)
Now, good luck with your carrer!

... so let's se what colors I shall apply on my face today... ;-)

Hey Lauren! I know it's the wrong area for that particular issue but who cares...;-) I'm home again coz I still feel ill. Guess what! I've just watched the latest BARRY M tuts and I have to say that they are brilliant and mindblowing at the same time. I especially like the "all eyes make up". So cool!
Besides, I'm happy that you use your old cam again. It's much better if you ask me. Rock on, mate!

Hi Lauren! I've watched your new BM tuts lately. I like them so much but please promise me to contact an eye specialist/ ophthalmologist due to your sore eye. It could be an inflammation that should be treated with a salve. Hope you undestand what I mean coz my poor English lets me down today. I'm in a hurry coz I'm in an internet cafe.;-)
Congrats to your own cosmetics product line, btw! Hope you'll be successful with it. Be strong and have fun!
MYQ
P.S.: Hope you'll update your blog soon...;-)
