OLD FOTD's - like REALLY old *picture Heavy*

[tabgirl]

The sign of a true artist...they are NEVER satisfied!

I know this is true with myself as well as my hubby too (we own a graphic design agency together).
Sonrisa you are INCREDIBLE, inside and out! Thank you for sharing your talents with us!

 

[solardame]

Ha! Those are not bad! My favorite one you did is with Chromezone 3. I don't have the quad, but IMO it's the prettiest one to come out. I love the colors in it and this looks so awesome.

I agree with mel0622, you were born with a talent. You are an awesome makeup artist! Your work just keeps getting better and better! I wish you worked at a MAC counter close to me, I would love to have you do my makeup for a Mardi Gras Ball I am going to on 2/24.


I was wondering what color is on your lips in picture #7? (the picture after the one of you in the red shirt)

 

[V2LUCKY]

You are just amazing and I feel like everyone else here your "horrid" work is still like a million times better than my best. You are one of the best MAs I've seen.

 

[xtinemelanie]

i don't think they look bad at all. different color choices, but your technique was still pretty good. makeup trends do tend to change.

 

[Piaqua]

I see the improvement, but even your bad looks look good (remind me why I don't hate you again, LOL) BTW, I love your hair short, like at or just above your chin, toward the last few pics.

thanks for posting these Risa! lol- I have to say the exact same thing prsfynestmami said...I can tell that right now, I'm exactly where you were then, which gives me a lot of hope for getting better.

I still think all of these are fantastic!!!

what on earth are you wearing on your lips here in the mythology/flammable picture? (or something that would be similar) I love it!

 

[stacey]

you are TOO cute with short hair!

 

[poddygirl]

Love the last photo! Your hair is so cute there! Thanks for posting all those ... true inspiration that with (lots of) practice we can have skills approaching yours

 

[a_parting_gift]

lol Babe - some of your worst ones are STILL better than some of my best. haha.

But, thanks for posting ... I am a true believer of 'practice makes perfect.' I think we all get better over time.

 

[breathless]

you were great in the beginning also!

 

[Hikaru-chan]

I don't think you application was bad at all, but you always find fault in you own work.
I remember when I first started doing nails I totally sucked but people told me different, I've been doing nails for 2 years now and I still find I'm not always 100% happy.
How long have you been with MAC?

 

[Bootyliciousx]

Not at all! There's some great posters on here and other who are well on their way to becoming great. Everyone has to start somewhere - ya know? I try to give constructive criticism but I'm always hesitant because half the time I feel as though people think I (or others) are trying to pick apart their look - which is not the case. Or, I've always had people tell me I'm conceited, thinking I know it all by giving c.c.

I'm not entirely positive, but I'm gonna guess and say Bare Trance, Gel and Burgandy lipliner.

I would LOVE being critized by you! If I could I would book an effing workshop with you girl!

Honestly, apart from your major talent, even in the pics you don't like, I think you're just such a beautiful person in the in and outside and that shows in all of your posts, and I guess 99% of us would love to hear what you think of our looks.

And we also would love a "SonRisa's Tips and Tricks"-Thread *hint, hint*

Ohh! YOu do nails? I always wanted to learn how - but never wanted to go to school for it. I remember back in the day I used to get my nails done ALL the time. And I'd watch them. One day I went to Walgreens and bought a kit with the powder and everything and did my own nails like twice. They weren't *that* bad, but far from professional looking. I've been with MAC for 16 months now

I *think* that was probably Slightly Off lipliner, Groupie lipstick and All Girl Pigment.

Hmm, I'll think of some things and make a post. Thanks for responding by quoting her though because I totally missed her post since it was between all of my replies.
