Eyes- Chocolate Brown pigment all over, Gorgeous Gold (inner half), Emerald Green pigment (outer half), Smolder eyeliner, and Cornflower pigment (lower lashline) *used mark.'s Eyeshadow, Eyeliner, and Blending brushes*



Lashes- mark. Comb Through mascara in Raven and Dream Gleam lash topcoat (LOVE this stuff!!!)


I have this ONE eyelash that is always longer than the rest, no matter if I trim it down or tweeze it...GRRRR! It drives me absolutely

Face- mark. Invisible Touch concealer in Deep *used mark.'s concealer brush and sponge to blend* mark. Good Glowing Blush in Ripe Glow and MAC Golden Bronze Iridescent Powder *with Blush/Bronzer brush*, and Matte-nificent in Deeper *used Powder brush*

Girl that is all thanks to those Premium Crest Whitestrips....if I can find some pix that I took BEFORE using them, I'll show you the comparison! But they work very very well! And I all I did was swap for them on makeupalley!

You're so pretty! I really like this combo, you did a great job!

 

[SChotgurrl]

Hey Jenn! Where exactly in Cola are you? Thanks for all the compliments ladies

 

[SChotgurrl]

Oh hey ladies, I gotta question....if you go up to the pic of my lips, you can see I have small lines in my upper lip....anyone know how to keep light/pale colored l/g from settling in those lines? I always put on a clear l/g first--particuarly Mentha Lip Shine or VS Balmy Nights--but it still manages to settle

I LOVE colors like MAC's Prrr but after about 5 mins that damn settling happens

The only l/g hasn't done that is mark.'s hook-up l/g in Confidential, but I wanna wear other colors...any suggestions?

gorgeous, and look at those pearly whites!! I'd love to see a before pic to see if they are worth buying

 

[Janice]

Wow, what a great color combination! Very creative chica!

As for the lines, have you tried applying a thick lipbalm like Rosebud before applying your lip color? I like the Rosebud Strawberry lipbalm, you can buy it at any Sephora. It's a thick lipbalm in a blue & white (plain) or gold (strawberry) tin for $5. I'm sure it's sold a million other places as well, but I know for sure Sephora.

 

[SChotgurrl]

Janice, do you think the Victoria's Secret Balmy Nights is thick enough? It comes in a tin as well and I usually just swipe on a thin layer, but I'll try puttin on a little more...if that doesn't work I'll try the Sephora stuff

Thanks for the compliments & advice!
