Super Shimz of the Month — echoli

The first Super Shimz of the Monthfor 2010 read­ily admits that she’s always had the urge to “draw on her face”. Jessie, known on YouTube and her fans as Echoli, believes that makeup is a form of self-expression and art, help­ing a woman know who she truly is and giv­ing her the self-confidence to announce that to the rest of the world. We did a vir­tual inter­view with Jessie so other Super Shimz could get to know her better.

Name: Jessie (Echoli)

Occupation: Full-time vet­eri­nary school student

What she’s wear­ing today: A yel­low and grey sweater she found at Ross for $9.99. “It was such a great bar­gain!” she said. She is also wear­ing jeans, knee-high socks and boots.

What she eats for break­fast: Milk or cof­fee. She is not a fan of milk but she feels it jump­start her day, keeps her focused, and holds off hunger. So she is try­ing to push her­self to drink more.

Her groom­ing rou­tine: She just lets her hair dry nat­u­rally and then brushes it.

What she has in her purse or on her book­shelf: Actually, Jessie doesn’t usu­ally carry a hand­bag with her because, in her opin­ion, she has a lot of things. She does use a back­pack and car­ries her (super kawaii) Toshiba tablet lap­top with her for study­ing. She also has fold­ers, pen­cils, a cal­cu­la­tor, and lip balm in her back­pack. Her book­shelf is also filled with school-related items, like binders, note­books, paper, and biol­ogy books.

Where she shops online: Jessie occa­sion­ally shops on eyeslipsface.combecause their things are so inex­pen­sive that if you don’t like them, you can toss them with­out feel­ing the pinch in your wal­let. She also uses Ebay because you can find any­thing there cheap, espe­cially Asian items.

Her splurge and her cheap thrill: A warm pair of boots or a nice coat that can be paired with any­thing are her big splurge because she lives in a cold city. For her cheap thrill, she likes to go to Dollar Tree when they have L’Oreal’s HIP line or Maybelline for a dollar.

Her favorite celebrity look:  Lee Hyori’s eyes. “The kind of makeup she wears is always sexy.”
