By day I&#8217;m a college student and jewelry designer.  By night, I&#8217;m a beauty and style-phile.  A year ago, I started a little blog called <a href=\"stylebycat.blogspot.com\" title=\"Style By Cat\">Style By Cat<\/a>.  Recently, I&#8217;ve been very fortunate and honored to be invited by Asiance to be a part of their blogger team.  I guess that&#8217;s why I&#8217;m here today.  I&#8217;m very pleased to meet anyone who&#8217;s taken the time to read this post. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p>Anywho, I am, by no means a professional makeup artist.  I&#8217;ve just been playing with makeup since I was 5 and have subsequently became adept enough with it to walk around in public with a passably painted face.<\/p>\n<p>My personal philosophy regarding makeup is that it exists to accentuate your natural beauty, whether you want to go for a barely-there, effortless look or if you want to take it to the nines with a fun, dramatic look.  Because I&#8217;m no pro, I learned a lot through trial and error.  I&#8217;m here to hopefully help you skip the &#8220;error&#8221; part.  I&#8217;m also a starving student, therefore I shop a lot of bargains and inexpensive brands.  I&#8217;ve found that $$$$ doesn&#8217;t make the face, it&#8217;s doing the best with what you&#8217;ve got that matters in the end.  Oh, one last thing: I&#8217;m very, very lazy.  I&#8217;ve seen amazing artists using a gazillion brushes and products to create phenomenal looks.  Me, I prefer to take all the shortcuts.  I am the queen of half-assing and cutting corners and have become rather talented at finding the &#8220;easy way&#8221; of achieving the looks that I covet which I&#8217;ll share with you all along the way.<\/p>\n<p>I guess that&#8217;s me in a nutshell.  I look forward to creating posts that most of you will hopefully find useful. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p>Cheers!<br \/>\nCat<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>My name is Catherine, but my friends call me Cat.
