You Tubes Panacea81's makeup line, By lauren Luke

[SuomeaSorceress]

My 'My Smokey Classics' palette arrived this morning, not had a chance to use it but I took some quick swatches, the 'Antique Pewter' and 'Twilight' eye shadows are really, really gorgeous and very pigmented.
The two lip colours - 'Plumberry' and 'Cranberry Stain' are also beautiful, and seem quite pigmented, but I don't have much experience with lip colours so others might think they aren't.
The eye liner is indeed just like a soft eye liner pencil that's been put into a pan, it'll be interesting for me to try using a liner in this way.
The blush colour is a bit...meh, but it might build well on the face.
I'm not too sure about the primers, I do love my UDPP, but I shall give them a go anyway.
The palette itself is lovely, very pretty with the embossed design on it.
These are just my initial reactions, but hope someone might find them helpful.

I see that Lauren will be releasing a book in October, mainly tutorials etc. According to the publishers, it will be "aimed at 13-25 year-olds". It doesn't appeal to me but I thought others might be interested.

I am rooting for her. She has great connection to her youtube videos. I really enjoy the snoring pugs .

I think that is so awesome that her stuff is at Sephora! She seems like such a sweet person. I wish that I lived in New York to be there when her line launches there.

I cannot recall correctly, but isn't Illamasqua coming to NYC on July 31st too??? Eeeeeek! I was going to go check out the Illamasqua products in person and buy. I'm not going to go check because I'm lazy, but if someone can tell me if I'm wrong then please do. Thanks!

Lauren Luke in Time Magazine

I just opened my new Time Magazine on page 39 there is an article about Lauren Luke. The article describes her as one of the most popular makeup artists on earth.

I'm so happy for her and wish her all the success in the world. You go girl!!!

I typed this and I can't find my glasses so it may be a little off.

Article:

How did a 27-year-old single mother from a gritty corner of northern England become one of the most popular makeup artists on earth? To understand, just press Play, for part of the delightfully unvarnished charm that has propelled Lauren Luke into becoming a YouTube sensation with more than 50 million hits is the voice Luke says she hates.

“It’s a bit off-putting, and I don’t edit me videos because I don’t like to watch me self,” says Luke. Yet those Geordie vowels (and the use of me instead of my and us in place of me) just add more stardust to a screen presence so authentic, you to bottle it-or package it into makeup palettes labeled “By Lauren Luke,” available at bylaurenluke.com and Sephora.

No one is more surprised by her success than the insecure girl who was bullied at school and got pregnant at 15. “They called us fat. They called us everything, really,” says Luke. “But I’d put on me makeup, and it makes you feel better, doesn’t it? It’s a waste of a day not to have a beautiful makeup look on.”

Luke began buying and selling makeup online three years ago. She also uploaded videos of herself applying makeup, using her own face as a canvas. “People liked it and thought I was a real makeup artist,” says Luke.

Duncan Bird, a London based talent manager, saw the videos-with Luke’s dog snoring in the background-and singed her immediately. “What struck me was Lauren’s unique approach to helping people to be their best,” says Bird. Luke’s makeup line is also selling in Britain, Australia, china and India. “I’m over-the moon dead proud,” she says. –By Marion Hume, Time Magazine.
