What a great look for you. My only recommendation would be to work on the eyeliner line (practice makes perfect) and to use a liner with the red lips. Otherwise i think those colors work well for you

yeah, you should have seen me with the liner fiasco. i at first tried two different liquid liners and came to the conclusion that liquid liner is not meant for me. i will practice with the liner since i rarely wear and as far as the lip liner was concerned, i didnt know where mine was.

No worries, just a couple of suggestions to tweak this look :-D

I was going to say this same thing. Otherwise, this is a great look for you! Very dramatic.

And trust me, I know how the liquid liner can be. I don't know how Carly is so good at it! LOL. Have you tried using the MAC 266 with a fluidline or something? That's the easiest way for me to do liner now!! It's even easier than using a pencil for me.

Well, these colors look amazing on you!! You can so pull off that pin-up look girl!!! Especially with those hot lips

As for the liquid liner... practice makes perfect! Seriously... it does! I started wearing liquid when i was like 14 years old. I remember an older friend of mine wearing it & just wanting to do it was good as hers! I actually sat around all night one night & putting it on & taking it off, lol! As much as my eyes were sore & red it was worth it to me cause it worked... i got the hang of it & wore it like that ever since! Even then, it wasnt all that good til i found Specktra and then i really got the hang of it!

Anyway, after all that rambling... my point is dont give up!! Just try it again one day!!

You look very pretty. Keep practicing with the liner. I can't use liquid liner if my life depended on it but I still practice and I am getting better and better.
