EQUIPMENT GEEKNESS:

This video was shot with a Canon 70D camera with the Canon EF 24-105mm f4L lens and edited with Final Cut Pro X. I record audio on the Zoom H4N (2015 edition) - http://www.amazon.com/Zoom-H4N-Digital-Multitrack-Recorder/dp/B00UK7G3UO and light everything with the Ardinbir Photography 500W 5400K Ring Light - http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004XSYZ2O


ABOUT ME:

My name is Shelly and I’m a 41-year-old web geek that jumped off the deep end into the makeup and beauty world. Come along for the ride as I figure out which products work and look good on fair, dry skin that is starting to show the sins of its youth… fine lines, sun damage, enlarged pores, and all that good stuff.


I purchased all products used in this video. All opinions are my own.
