thanks!! i wanna try this method with brighter colors. I'm slowing breaking out of my shell!

Thank you!!

Hint for the tape method which I have been using/doing for ages...put the tape on the back of your hand and take it of and put it back on a couple of times before putting it on your face. You're still going to have enough "stick" to hold it on your face but it won't remove as much of your foundation/primer/concealer or whatever else you may have on.

I love the job you did!! Looks awesome. Personally, when I do the tape method I line the tape up with the corner of the eye outwards to "just" beyond the end of the eyebrow. I've found doing it this way gives a nice full amount of color over the entire eye. Also, I do a bit of blending UNLESS I am doing an Arabic eye which requires a lot of eyeliner and a few lil ticks at the corner of each side of the eye. Fluidline works GREAT for this kind of look. I think everyone should try the tape method at least once. I know I'm addicted to it!! LOL

I love it! I like the contrast between the bronzy neutrals and the harsh line...makes the neutral look very edgy and fun.

And I adore your freckles. I'm glad you dont conceal them. You are so beautiful!

I love how the tape method looks, but I've had allergic reactions to every tape I use =[

One of the MAC senior artists mentioned to us... as a great MUA, its not what you put on, its how much you take off.

I am not a fan of the tape method and honestly find the concept a bit odd. I think if you want a harsh angle, it can easily be achieved with q-tips and corrected with the right tools and products (i.e. 266 brush used to apply concealer/foundation brush to correct, get the angle).

Also to determine the shape your liner should follow, simply follow your lower lashline upwards until you reach the end of your brows/browbone.

Great neutrals colours and good blending!

Thanks for the great tips!! I really appreciate it. I think I may try the q-tip way next time to see which one I like.

You definitely have to try it. I love the clean, crisp edge.
