Gold eyes..Purple lips

mmm..ok. So this is my first post, oh no its my second actually..but it is my first thread. I'm a bit of a mac newbie, and I tend to buy quite a lot of cheaper products cos i'm a very poor student. However, I do have a few lipsticks...my favourite one being Girl about town <3 and I'm going to purchase old gold cos this gold has pretty much ran out.
Sorry the main picture is a bit blurry..and oh and the last picture is just some flicks I did the other day, which had flicks on the flicks! wowsa.

Welcome to specktra! Nice lips! The liner for me is a little bold, but I also like to make statements with my eye make up! :0)

Thanks! Haha..sometimes my eyeliner is really thick like that, or much less dramatic..it all depends on if I go wrong!..I went wrong on that day..so it got bigger and bigger! I'm just too lazy to wipe it off and start again.

Next time perhaps you should try bringing the shadow down lower and blending it as you get higher so that it fades out smoothly. And hey, just think of it this way - a lot of cheap products eventually equal the cost of a more expensive product that you'll probably treasure all the more.

This is a fun look. My recc would be to tweak the eyeshadow colors a bit and to bring the yellow down just a bit.

I like the dramatic liner on top, but i would go lighter on the bottom. All in all though its a great effort, hope to see more from you

but i have to agree with the others, bring the yellow down abit more and maybe add a darker crease colour?

How do you mean ''bring the colour down more'' ? I don't understand

/stupid

The duo comes with the gold and a dark brown which works well in the crease like you say..I just don't always like to use it. I think I like to be a bit more unconventional with my make up then just doing what is perceived as correct application..bah that sounds pretentious..ah well..I guess you'll know what I mean when I post more stuff!..I'll either be a hit or a miss.

Thanks for your comments

I like the yellow...Although, I personally would not have placed it so high above the crease...The liner is very creative...Can't wait to see more from you

I get what you are saying, you aren't going for a *traditional* soft lid, bold crease standard look, you are being more expressive and bold. I like that liner with a few wings
