It has been a while since the last one of these. This time around we will meet with Awungshi Philamazan of Dr. Poison Ivy’s Beauty Blog. This beautiful lady will floor you with her creativity and the beautiful looks she creates. She looks like a doll and those gorgeous almost fantasy like OOTD’s she does will have you coming back for more. I got hooked to K-Pop coz of her as she had done a tut on replicating the makeup done in one of the music videos. And what she did with the Maybelline Hyper glossy liner!!!! That is something that you should really see. One of my personal favs 🙂 Read on to know more about this talented diva…

I’ve met many amazing people and made some great friends. Thank you for taking the time to read my blog. I’m improving with each passing day and I’ll continue to try my best. Until then, please keep showing your love to my blog. Hugs.

Aww thanks Awungshi! The pleasure has been all mine and I got to know you a little better today 🙂 Love the fact that your friend had the confidence in your skills that she let you do her makeup on her very special day. I had seen the pics you had posted and they all looked so beautiful. Kudos to you. May you and your blog grow leaps and bounds and one day Michelle Phan says ” Oh I love what Awungshi does! She is so talented.” :). Wishing you the very best!
