Fall Holiday Makeup & Thanksgiving Nail Art

Hey beauties! Thanksgiving holiday is tomorrow, and I've got a number of blessings to count and lots to be thankful for this year. It's been a tremendous year for me work-wise and I'm really excited to be spending the next few days with my extended family and taking a much needed mini-vacation. In honor of Thanksgiving, I've put together this festive makeup and nail art look using all Motives makeup and nail polishes. I've incorporated lots of fall colors, including rich reds, shimmering greens and warm golden tones. I hope you like this one and get to try it out for yourself. Happy Holidays!!!

Flawless Skin: Temptu Airbrush VIDEO Tutorial


Hey beauties!! Some of my most requested tutorials and FAQ's are often revolved around skin and questions about how I achieve my flawless coverage. I almost always rely on airbrush makeup to give me the most natural, perfect coverage, especially on days where I need to look my best and/or when I have bad breakouts. As you know, I've reviewed several airbrush systems here on my blog and today, I'm super excited to present my very first airbrush video tutorial on my YouTube channel featuring Temptu, which is making its debut on my blog. I'm also sharing a PROMO CODE, just in time for the holiday season. Let me know if you have any questions and post them below. I hope you enjoy, thanks for watching and subscribing!!!

Fall Fashion: MC Style "The Gemma"


Hello gorgeous! Today's fashion post and outfit are loosely inspired by the motorcycle culture, namely by a character from one of my favorite shows: the badass Gemma Teller (Sons of Anarchy). The MC style is so in and on trend at the moment, and with everyone rocking an MC-jacket nowadays, I had to find my own voice and spin on this popular fashion movement. My version is called "Gemma in the City", in SoHo to be exact, and it's exactly how I wore and reinterpreted this statement.

Review & Swatches: Gerard Cosmetics Lip Glosses


Hello darlings!! The weekend is here and I'm super excited to present you with a Special "MM" review that's taken me almost two weeks to prepare and put together. If you're a lover of lip glosses like I am, I'm sure this isn't the first time you're reading the name Gerard Cosmetics and have seen these highly pigmented glosses pop out on your Instagram feed and in your fave YouTube tutorials. These babies have been seen on the lips of so many famous mua's, bloggers and influencers as of late, that I just had to dive in to the glossy goodness and swatch the entire line. 

Today, I'm showcasing all 24 swatches, including a breakdown of every shade, along with personal faves and recommendations for different skin tones. Of course, I couldn't present all this without a HEFTY DISCOUNT CODE just for you guys, and I'm extremely excited to feature Gerard Cosmetics in my most thorough review yet. My lips are still throbbing, but I took one for the team lol... and I really hope you enjoy!!

"Jewel Eyes" Creative Liners Makeup Tutorial & VIDEO

Hey beauties! There's a new makeup tutorial on my YouTube channel: Maryam Maquillage and it's all about getting creative with your eyeliners. This video is different from the rest -- for one, because there's no eyeshadows involved in this look -- and I love it for its graphic lines and artistic expression. Try it out for an artsy night on the town: a play, a visit to an art gallery / a museum or anything that requires a creative touch. Hope you like!
