what a great idea hilly!

aziajs, my goodness I love your total look from Oct 07!

i wish i had pics to compare...lol it woulda been good as i was so bad at the beginning! But once I got a 217 my blending skills skyrocketed and IMO i think it helped make the eyes look much better~!

Ok, I have a dumb question- how do I pull up my old FOTDs? I can't find my own stuff on here!

In the menu, go to "quick links", then in the list "my profile". Once in your profile page, click over the link "Find all threads started by mreichert"

The direct link: http://specktra.net/search.php?searchid=1999756

Have fun!

This is a very good idea Hilly, I'll post it later because I really want to find my worst makeup shot ever in my backups to compare.

I do! I think your skills have improved and while your makeup looked good before, I think your posted recent one looks great!

just search for your own threads in the FOTD section

Just put in your username and search for threads posted by user, and select the FOTD forum for which forum to search in.

You look fabulous, the haircut and brows really make a difference. Your blending skills always looked good.
You know I looked at this thread cause of the title! Good one at that.

I'm so inspired! You obviously put your skllls to work and found your niche. You are so talented, girlfriend.

Can I ask you what were some tips that you can share that you picked up after you hired on with Mac? Any tips on how you evolved to your 'polished look'? Any do's

that you learned along the way? It's funny, because ever since you shared that concealer-under/above-the-brow technique, it's polished my look threefold! I don't think anyone can argue that your technique/skills are THE BOMB, so please keep posting.

It was almost an overnight transformation! I guess practice does make perfect!

When I started at MAC I actually started to wear foundation which is a big plus. I never wore it before as weird as it sounds. I did all my makeup minus the face.

I learned to use my brushes differently. Like some people expect to get the same look w/ 3 brushes but don't realize that it can actually take 6-8 different brushes to accomplish the look.

Most of all, just keep blending. When you think you're done blending, blend some more.

Thanks everyone for looking and your comments
