Let's just ignore the camera-induced red eye and the zit on my cheek, ok?

Thanks!!! I wish I had my blending brush though, haha. It "mysteriously disappeared" along with my Woodwinked and Mulch eyeshadows...and possibly more, but I'm not sure.

So now I have to go buy another one. :\

Thanks! I don't know...I think the Beige-ing shadestick helped. I think shadesticks help SO much when it comes to making colors pop. I used the 213 (SE) brush, too. When I want to pack color on, I have found that a smaller brush like that works really well.

Think you need to take an inventory giiirll...precious items can't go missing like that! I have a prob with things sometimes going missing and need to do an inventory count when I get round to it!
I love your brows!! Do you trim them or are they naturally that length? love them love them and love your application too!

I have a spreadsheet inventory, haha. It's categorized by type of product, name, finish, color, collection, LE/perm, quantity, and price (retail). Haha. But my makeup is really unorganized right now. I used to have it all organized in a traincase, but it doesn't come close to fitting anymore. So yeah, it's just kind of all over.

My sister is a bit of a thief. I just got a key lock for my bedroom door though, so that should help.



ANYWAY...I definitely trim them, haha. I trim and pluck, quite a bit. I should try to find some old eyebrow pictures, haha.

Thank you!!!

These were actually a bit uneven too, haha. Chances are, if they're just a little uneven, you'll be the only one to notice...no one else will. Mine will be a bit uneven all the time, and no one else notices at all.

What type of brush did you use? I think the easiest way to do it is with the 266 brush and fluidline.

Ok...let's pretend this actually looks good, haha. I suck at paint, bad...so the eyeliner is not really where it's supposed to go on my eyelid, but whatever. You get the basic idea, haha.

Step One:

Apply eyeliner from inner to outer corner...or from wherever you like to start it to the outer corner. You can stop a bit before the corner, if you wish...depending on how far out you want to extend the "wing", or how thick you want it to be.

Step Two:

Wing line up. I actually usually do it more like this...I tend to kinda combine steps. So this is my usual first step:

Like that...except I don't wing it out that far in, haha. I extend the line out toward the end of my eye a bit more and THEN wing it out...but like I said, I suck at paint. I can't draw SHIT with a mouse. So that's the best I could do.

If you're new at it, it's probably easier to do it in the two seperate steps though.

Step Three:
Starting at the outer corner of your eye, draw a line up to the first one you created, and connect the two to make kind of a triangle shape.

Step Four:
Fill in the the little triangle type thing you just made.

Then I usually go over the winged out part again, to make it more precise and to sharpen the end, if necessary.


Hopefully that helps a little bit, even though I started it too far in. But then again, if I didn't, it would have been cut off, because I used a cropped picture. Haha.
