Rockin In Rio

[Edie]

I WISH!

Our teacher was kind enough to give us a homework project before we went on our holiday break.

The assignment was: Country, State, City etc etc and make a look inspired by it.

So since I have always wanted to go to Rio. I chose it. I then thought of the colours I think of when I think of Rio (pink, purple, orange, yellow) and came out with this.

What I Used:

MAC Going Bananas e/s
MAC Da Bling e/s
MAC Firespot e/s
MAC Parfait Amour e/s
SHISEIDO Fine Eyeliner Pen
RIMMEL Magnif' Eyes Mascara in Black

I then added the liner and mascara

After I was done I had this conversation with my bf:

Me: Whatcha think?
bf: Hmm..yeah. S'okay. Looks like a flamingo feather.
Me:

What?

bf: You know. A flamingo feather.
Me:

but its not just pink. What are you on?
bf: Don't give me that look. Flamingos with the spread out feathers.
Me: Do you mean a peacock.
bf: whatever
Me:

EDIT: Thanks for looking

 

[Amaranth]

Ahahahahaa flamingo. Awesome. Looks good!

 

[MACATTAK]

The colors look great together!

 

[SparklingWaves]

Yes, it sure does look like a beautiful feather. Wow, you are so talented. Amazing!

 

[Briar]

Heh, it does look like a pastel peacock feather. Beautiful, and very apropos to Rio.

 

[Edie]

Thank you lovlies

Yeah he can be very 'special' at times.

Ugh... forgot to add 'please excuse the disgusting state my eyebrows are in' (as usual)....

 

[Hilly]

What a cool homework assignment. I am sure you'll get an A+

 

[Edie]

Ooohh thanks Hilly. I wish you were my teacher...hahaha...

I think I might do another version using a hotter pink and TRYING to get the yellow to show up better! (Stoopid Going Bananas doesn't like showing up on me)

 

[GlamYOURUs]

Hahaha thank is too cute! I love the colors <3

 

[woopsydaissy]

This is pretty!
I've been to Rio.

Only for a day though... so I guess it doesn't count. lol

 

[Baby Mac]

Looks great! Are you studying to be a make up artist? Can you recommend a place to train at in Australia??

 

[fingie]

Nice color combo

 

[chrisantiss]

very pretty

 

[Krasevayadancer]

LOL to the convo with ur bf. Love the look!

 

[ArsenicKiss]

Clueless men are So win.

Really like the look, pretty combination of shades.

 

[Edie]

Thanks Everyone

To be honest I started the course to just get a basic understanding of make-up artistry. Im doing a course in Bondi at the moment called Wallingford. Its a private one so no accreditations are received at the end. Which is fine as it was cheaper than all the other courses and I just wanted to try it out.

My advice would probably be to go through Tafe. (I think North Sydney does it to my recollection) I have heard really good things about them plus they apparently give you advice in going into the industry. But are VERY VERY VERY VERY strict on hygeine (which personally I think is good) but others have said that they are over the top to the point of failing certain things for placing the finger on the persons face or something along those lines.

I don't know much about Napoleon. Only heard bad things about how his course is 'frowned upon' in the industry. But this is all here-say.

Hope this helps
