beauty is pain, and it hurts that i look so good. (two looks!!)

[pnuttbuttajelli]

hai guiz!

soooo, today was my first day as a mac freelancer!
it was kinda nerve-wracking, but it turned out to be fun.
my feet are killing me though.

anyways, here are two looks. one is from yesterday (i've never gotten so many compliments-- it was kinda weird), and the other is from my first day being a freelance artist yip yip yip!

thank you for checking this out.
comments, criticisms, and compliments are all welcomed!
stay beautiful, and have a nice day

honestly?
A WHITE CREAM EYELINER I GOT FROM THE DISCOUNT BEAUTY STORE FOR LIKE 99CENTS, lol! i just pack on a tiny bit, then smudge it out. i think the shadows probably stick to it better or SOMETHING because i've found that the cream eyeliners make my shadows way more vibrant.

i used to use the NYX jumbo milk pencil after so many people said how much it worked for them, but it would crease. this one actually stays on.

also, i've found that a denser brush really helps! i still have the 239(?) from the Antiquetease brush set and since it's a bit older and has gone through so much use it's not as soft and smooth as the long handle one i have. it really packs on the colors! not gonna lie, it does hurt a little bit, but i've gotten use to it and the color pay off is worth it! then i just use the 275 to blend.
