On a few of them I can see where your application now and your application at the time definitely differ,.. but the thing is that I think your natural talent to start with was pretty darn good. It gives me hope that maybe someday in the near future I will get that much better,.. I would kill for your skillz,.. all of your FOTD's lately have been awesome and I love the dramatic color as well!

Risa, I look at ur old pics and see that I am now where you were then. It's hard for me to believe though that you've come so far in such little time. I have been trying to master my blending technique [especially in the crease] and the ability to create intense color without making a mess. Do you have any suggestions for me? Technically speaking...What is it that you do now, that you didn't do back then?

If I only had a third of the talent you have, even in the pics you shared. Thanks for sharing!

Well i think they're all great! Ofcourse i can see that your looks now have more depth and application skills gone into them but i would never think the old looks you did were bad, much better than what i can do!

So could you share with us how you improved? Did you change anything specific in application? Discover some tips?

Ok, because SonRisa was brave...

I'll be brave and post my scariest "what was I thinking" FOTD. DH likes this for some weird reason. And, you'd think that I would have at least worn pink l/s to match my sweater. Or matched my e/s better. Sheesh. I look like Punky Brewster. lol This was around 3 1/2 - 4 years ago. SO BE NICE! HA! Here's the link: http://www.hateball.com/photos/pages/123_2391.html

Sorry, I don't know how to put the pic in the thread.

With the exception of a couple maybe, I think theyre all practically flawless <3 You are definitely good at what you do. Even on your old FOTDs. BUT....I know how it is when you REALLLY know something how much of a perfectionist you can be. I'm still fairly new to the makeup thing so maybe in a while I'll see what you see.
