I *WILL* perfect my technique...someday...PIC HEAVY

[Caramel_QT]

Yeah, it's not perfect (I am sorely lacking in blending skills), but I feel cute enough to leave the house, though there's the little issue of not having anywhere to go...I'm so bored...don't feel like cooking, cleaning or doing laundry...so I do what most MAC-a-holics do: I indulge in my drug of choice MAKEUP!!!

cc is not only welcomed, but ENCOURAGED...I'm trying to up my skill level here. I'm an eyeshadow novice.

Anywho...

FACE:
Studio Tech NC45
Select Cover up in NW35
MSF natural in dark
MSF warmed to highlight - can you even see it?
Dollymix blush

Eyes:
Bare Study paint
Amberlights e/s
Electric Eel in the crease - yeah this is how EE looks on me

Some pigment that I have no idea what it's called because the MA gave me sample, I forgot to ask what it was called...
Tarnish eye khol
Maybelline Define-a-lash mascara

Lips:
Rimmel l/s in "Honey Honey"
Avon glazewear in Brown Sugar

Thanks for looking and cc is much appreciated! Gotta luv, Specktra!!!

very pretty!

and if you're a novice and your makeup looks that good... yikes! i've been wearing makeup for more than half my life and it still looks amateurish! i think i need tips from you.

i just figure that practice makes perfect. so i keep wearing makeup

I'm soooo jealous of your lashes!
(&I do the same thing you do, I either go on specktra or do my makeup. I really should be doing some reading....)

Nice look!

 

[ilovegreen]

Cute look.
Can I borrow your lashes forever ?! I'm so jealous

 

[Krasevayadancer]

I think this looks great!

 

[geni]

Wow, you are GORGEOUS!

One thing that is bothering me is your foundation - it seems to have a slightly grey tint to it, not sure if it's the lighting though. But anyway, yeah, gorgeous

 

[blazeno.8]

Very pretty! You have beautiful lashes!

 

[mreichert]

Beautiful!!! I LOVE how Electric Eel looks on you- I wish it looked that good on me!

 

[ShauntyXD]

I think it looks rly rly great! Love the colour combo.

if u rly want some advice maybe blend your middle colour (electric eel) more with your highlight colour. UNLESS u were going for a more defined look, if that was the case then it srsly does look awesome

 

[Jot]

so very pretty x

 

[Caramel_QT]

Thanks so much for the kind words everyone!

 

[SparklingWaves]

You look fabulous!

 

[Margolicious]

Amazing lashes! I wish mine could look like that without falsies.

 

[FacesbyNiki]

Beautiful!

Just use the 217 brush to blend those edges where the shadows meet. It's all practice.

 

[SoutherNtellect]

pretty colors
i wouldn't sweep the eye shadow so far out onto the sides of the face

 

[Caramel_QT]

Thanks so much for the suggestions ladies

I think I'm going to try the tape technique I read about here, and definitely look into that 217 brush! Thanks again!
