Hey all, ive been a member for a while, but havent posted a whole lot, im real bad about lurking! Anyways tho, im lookin for some honest opinions and critisism, and this is a great place for it.
The first one is a before, and the next couple are after. All i did was foundation, contouring and l/s and mascara. I really need opinions on these, does it look natural, did i forget a spot, etc, 'specially on the nose.
Then i threw in a couple of other looks for prosperities sake!
Oooh also a shout-out to all the guys on here that insipire me alot! Esp. Risa, ur an amazing artist, and seem like an amazing person as well.
TIA all, i look forward to ur suggestions . . .

Your contouring looks great! If you are planning on doing contouring for street wear you may wish to go a tad bit lighter on your shadow, just to prevent things looking un-natural close up.

I think it looks great! I as well, don't know anything about contouring. So I can't really say if it looks bad or not. Overall I think you did a good job. I love your glasses too.

Your Contouring Rocks! Did You Use Creme To Contour Or Powder? Excellent Job Especially The Pic With Your Glasses On The Contouring Makes Your Features Perfect!

Thanks for all the sweet complements everyone!!!
As for what i used, Kevyn Aucoin SSE (foundation and highlighting), KA Loose powder, Trucco face creme (for contouring), and EL loose powder in Deep (also for contouring). The l/s is a mix of Trucco Simply Red and Ripe, and KA Talula (coral red), and KA l/l too. I did everything with my fingers for the most part, minus the powder and l/s. For those i used KA powder brush and lip brush. I did go over the SSE with a sponge tho.
I did it for pictures, for a later date on someone else, just wanted to see if i still had 'it' or not! Also i wanted to see my nose thinner!

Believe me tho, its looked crazy in person, so believe people when they say contouring isnt for day!!
