Five minute natural-ish eye look
Part two for Bellaressa
When you have business meetings and lunches I'd go for a more simple professional look like this look I created for you, it's natural because of the brown, but the liner and the darker crease work well for your glasses.
This look can be done in 5 minutes flat (but let's say between 5 to 10 minutes because you might not have my speed) because you use mostly your fingers and a little brown shadow and liner.
Final eye:
When cleansing your face or doing makeup, remember to wash your hands beforehand.
Tiramisu Cupcakes
Cupcake
6 eggs, separated (separate when cold; allow to come to room temp)
3/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
1 cup sugar, divided
3 tablespoon water, room temp
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 cup sifted, all-purpose flour (measure after sifted)
In large mixing bowl at high speed, beat egg whites with cream of tartar until foamy. Add half of the sugar, 2 tablespoons at a time, beating constantly until sugar is dissolved and whites are glossy and stand in soft peaks. Rub just a bit of meringue between thumb and forefinger to feel if sugar has dissolved.
