^It's the skin between your lash line and your eye.
I can't apply liner there, I wear contacts and the thought of it makes me cringe. eek

All of my first makeup... aha.
When I was 12, my mom let me wear makeup for the first time. Of course, I couldn't afford much. My mom gave me a Clinique gwp for my 12th birthday and a $20 Nordstroms giftcard for makeup and skincare and stuff. I then had a sample mascara, lipgloss, and mini-palette (with blush and eyeshadow). Then I went to the Clinique counter and ended up with the $20 pressed powder (thought it was a foundation) in a darker shade (which I thought would make me look tan). I caked it on, and used all of it up completely.
Yeesh.

Oh I thought of another one!
I wore sparkly fake lashes under my eyes (they were supposed to go on top but I decided that I wanted my lower lashes to be longer.)
And neon green eyeshadow on my outside of my lids with neon pink on the inside. No eyeliner, no mascara, and no blending.
AND on top of those terrible eyes I drew a heart on my lips WITH RED SHARPIE.
I don't know what I was smoking.

Too-light foundation and orange lipstick were my HG in middle school...

All these posts are really taking me back to my early days...
some of my offenses:
1. waaaay too thick black eyeliner...giving that up was like a drug addiction
2. pale lilac lipstick that was super cool when I was 13
3. I used to use this Clinique shimmery bronze-ing gel-cream all over my face...yes, ALL over. I used it like a foundation. Then again, I was way too tan in high school...
4. Is there such a thing as over and under plucking eyebrows at the same time?? If so, then that was my look in high school... Too much off the outer sides and middle, but not enough of the arch. Thank God I finally got the whole eyebrow thing down!

I can't really think of anything. I've always been into makeup, but not particularly adventurous.I have probably blacked these things out and as I hate having my pic taken I can live blissfully unaware of my mistakes. Although I am getting a flashback of being a makeup demo for fuchsia lipstick worn as eyeshadow......oh god I think it's starting to comeback! I wore this brown L'Oreal lipstick everyday ( I thought I was sooo Brenda from 90210) and of course burgandy or red matte lipstick. Ugh! I'm going back to blocking things out, this is depressing! Thank goodness I didn't find a thread on hair crimes, because the things I've done to myself with bleach, colour and perms.....*shudder*

Oh on that note...two words for you: Sun-In. My 8th grade year I picked up a bottle of it and thought "Sweet" because I could easily get my hair lighter. Well the result was not pretty. It wasn't ORANGE, but still unnatural. I did all of my hair with it, and even worse was my freshman year there was pink pomade. Yes, pink. Temp colour and pomade! Well due to my hair being so light, it wasn't so temporary after all...I had reddish-pink streaks in my hair for MONTHS afterwards. Mind you, I was in my whole quasi-punk phase at that time. But still, a disaster.
