Hello everyone! This is my first post, other than the welcome forum. I've only recently started dabbling in the wonderful world of makeup (6-7 months) and I haven't looked back since! I still don't wear makeup on a regular basis, but I'm easing my way into the idea. I have to admit though, I do love ANY excuse to try a new look. I won't bore you with all the looks I've done, because to be frank, a lot of my earlier looks were quite lacking. I still need a ton of practice though, and I've seen some really great advice and CC on this site. Anyways, without further ado, onto the pics! (I'll put them in order from oldest, to newest.)
1) One of the first "real" looks I did. I used the Accentuated Taupe quad by L'Oreal. Mascara is Lancome Hypnose, and liner is Crayon Kohl in Black, by Lancome.
2) This was the first colourful look I did. Being that I was still somewhat afraid of bold looks, I used softer colours. Here's what I used, from memory:
eyes:
TFSI primer
GOSH Effect Powders in yellow seahorse, rusty nail, and blue whale.
Lancome Hypnose Mascara
Lancome Crayon Kohl in black
lips:
Lancome Rich Cashmere l/s
3) Much BOLDER colourful eye
eyes:
TFSI primer

blush (I forgot
