I'm guessing I didn't use the Vaseline correctly, or it just ain't gonna work for me! Creasing already. Meh.

Cute concept. I like the red with blue liner, but i think the white on top and the red liner underneath are a bit much. Otherwise, this is really cool

 

[M.A.C_Addiction]

I love the blue liner. Looks great!

Have fun at the BBQ!

 

[MACATTAK]

I like the eyes. Vaseline doesn't work for me either......and I only use a tiny, tiny amount...still seems to crease at some point. Too bad, I really wanted it to work. Have fun at your brothers

 

[Danapotter]

That looks awesome! Happy 4th to you too!

 

[xsnowwhite]

Awesome Julie!!! I did red, white & blue today too! I tried it once before and didnt care for how it turned out. I did a a little different today and have just come to the conclusion that those colors are very tough to make work together with makeup!!!

I think you did a great job though!!! I love how you did the bottom with the red & the blue!!! That blue liner looks awesome!!!

Oh, and about the vaseline, i add it along with my usual base and it works really good, i love it! Maybe you used a little to much cause thats easy to do. Try using a very little bit with your UDPP. That might help a little...

Oh yeah, & hope you had a great time at the BBQ!!! I just got home from mine and am so full, lol!!! By the way, whats Brunswick Stew??

 

[aeryss]

[powderpaint]

Thank you, sweetie!

Man, I must not have done that Vaseline bit properly because my make-up near my crease just disappeared as the day went on!!

I think I'll just stick with UDPP for now...

I loved your other RW&B you did. It was shortly after I started coming here - for Memorial Day, I believe. But the one you did yesterday was stunning!!!

Brunswick Stew is a pork BBQ stew. SOOO yummy. Pulled pork, corn, green peas, tomatoes... soooooooo good!!
