Wonderful quotes on marriage

I am not married myself, but I love the whole philosophy behind it from a yogic point of view. I find it very inspiring. The following quotes are taken from Yogi Bhajan Lecture Archive

"The one act to perform is for a man and a woman to merge as one. If from this minute they merge as one, they amalgamate now, they shall succeed.

To make an alloy, you take two elements and put them together. The alloy cannot be separated. You can boil it, you can form the alloy into a liquid, you can totally burn it, but once it becomes an alloy, it will totally keep its own quality, own quantity, own weight, own molecules, own electrons, protons and neutrons, and own combination. Whatever made brass doesn’t matter. Brass has its own faculty, own quality, own weight and own property.

Marriage brings happiness. It’s an amalgamation of two psyches. And when these two psyches are amalgamated, neither one is an individual. There is no question of he and she. That’s it. There is no loss, there is no gain and there is no bank account.

And that is what love is, that is what marriage is, that is what life is, that is what good luck is. There are no two opinions about it; when a male and a female merge together. That’s why we do it before God. "

1,2,3,4...smokey eye!

So here it is, my first tutorial for Dashing Magazine. In every issue I will let you into a few professional make-up secrets and give advice for a quick wearable make up look. Feel free to let me know if there are any looks you are particularly interested in or if you have any make up questions. The Ladies behind the magazine are the best and I really like how the first issue came out. A really nice smart and inspiring women's mag without crap. I can't wait to work with them again... I hope you enjoy the mag as well. Check it out here. (You will find Make Up on page 54/55)

Full On Make Up

Recently I have been up a lot of make-up work. Great and inspiring work, most of the time. I met interesting people and have been learning and experimenting. December should now get a little more quiet so I can catch up with blogging and updating my website. And for Christmas cookies and tea.

I will post a few recent projects within the next weeks. Have you all checked out the great Dashing Magazine? I have done a little step by step make up tutorial in their first issue that just launched yesterday. Happy December, all!
