John Kuckian is back with more products and they're still trash.







Internationally renowned makeup artist who's worked on celebs from Selena Gomez to Queen Elizabeth John Kuckian is back with fresh, hot and new makeup products. Oh, this isn't a satire blog? Back to reality then. John Kuckian is a drama channel who's only two days ago put makeup on another humans face for the first time yet somehow claims to have the makeup knowledge and expertise to own a makeup brand which he claims sells out rapidly at every launch. Taking away from how John faked the selling out of his first launch claiming the website had crashed when he literally just changed the homepage of his website, he's back with new products.

So, to hype up this new launch of literal resold private label ali-express products John decided to do makeup on his (seemingly) long-time friend. Take away John's hyena being gut punched by King Kong laugh and I guess their friendship is cute? I'm stretching for nice things to say, I know. John starts the video (eventually) by saying that he's only going to be using John Kuckian products for the look, minus the foundation, concealer, brow products, mascara, lashes, setting powder, primer etc...

Skipping over the irrelevant parts of the video I was left with 15 seconds to watch, kidding! It was around a minute. John decides to give this poor soul he calls a friend a blown out smokey look that consists of pink and a whole lot of black, again, let me stress, that poor soul of a friend. The main points I wanted to raise regarding the video is his use of a well known and respected method of makeup, eye shadow as contour. Yes, eyeshadow as contour. Because apparently this girl wasn’t tortured enough by looking like a flamboyant half-dressed beetle juice, eyeshadow on her cheeks not even slightly matching her contour range is obviously what this girl needed.

As the pictures below show, the eyeshadow as contour method came out patchy, dirty mud looking and in general just a hot mess. There’s visible patchiness where the product just grouped up and decided to hang on for dear life like we all wish Jack could of done in Titanic. John also thought he’d be Nikkie Tutorials for a hot minute and be a highlighter queen, lets just say it didn’t pay off, in the slightest. The highlighter is patchy and has a visible “swoop” line where it was applied with 0 blending. This didn’t entirely surprise me for the makeup brand CEO who thought he’d blend eyeshadow with a packing brush and perform a lobotomy on a girls eyeball with his finger.







The crème de’la crème of this hot mess is when John decided to ditch the bronzer quicker than a trailer park fling in Las Vegas. The bronzer might of saved the look by at the very least masking the patchiness and in general super cold tones of the contour but no. Remember, Johns only using Kuckian Cosmetics products (minus every bit of makeup but the contour and eyeshadow).

Overall, this make over was a hot mess as we all expected. Wish John the best of luck with sales and always remember, if your product doesn’t sell out, just fake it.

Saving Money As A Student

 Being a student is a financial nightmare. Whether you have credit card debt, maintenance loans, working part time or living off of family support the chances are you are broke. In this article I will break down a few of the ways that you can save money as a student and start paying off debts are saving for a deposit.  Tip #1: Paying yourself before your bills. The idea of paying yourself before bills is often touted as the best way to save money as it instantly shrinks your budget and prevents over spending. But what is paying yourself I hear you ask? Paying yourself means automatically taking a % of your money, whenever you receive it and sending it to a savings account. For most students, 10% is the most comfortable amount to automatically redirect to your savings but if you can afford more then more is better. If you cant afford 10% then try 5%, the effects of compound interest over the course of your degree will grow even that 5% to a nice chunk of change. Tip #2: Form a ...

Frugal Tips To Save You Money

Beginning a new blog series where I break down frugal living tips that accumulated can save you tens of thousands. As always, make sure to follow me on social media @DraggedO Frugal tip #1 Meal prep: Prepping meals saves you money in two major ways. Firstly, you don't waste food by it going bad in your fridge then you having to throw it away. This is quite literally throwing money in the bin and is not frugal at all. Secondly, you're not tempted to order takeout because you're too tired after a hard days work. You can also meal prep your work lunches and this will save you spending money everyday on overpriced meals.  Frugal tip #2 Cancel premium tv: "Cut the cord" is a popular term in the frugal community and is even gaining mainstream use. The cost of watching premium TV channels averages out to be $99 a month. That's $1200 over a year and $12,000 over a decade. $12,000 is getting close to a mortgage deposit on a reasonable sized house.  ...

How To Save For Your First House.

 Rising house prices, stagnating wages and the COVID-19 pandemic have created an economy making it seemingly impossible for first time buyers to get their foot through the proverbial door of the housing ladder. Owning a house can often seem like a pipe dream but with carefully planned budgeting and efficient use of savings its a possibility. In this blog post I will explain how to best save for the deposit on a house.  Step 1: Make a budget. You are about to make the most important, expensive purchase of your life (unless you plan on owning any lambos anytime soon) so you need to get an understanding of what you actually earn and what you actually spend, those coffees add up. Utilise a budget to properly understand how your money is been spent and the areas you can cut back to save more money. Remember, every pound saved is a pay rise.  Step 2: Stop relying on a savings account. I hear so many people holding their house deposit fund in a 0.1% savings account. DONT DO THIS...
