Ok, this is more practice. Afterwards I'm not sure if I like the yellow added to the inner corners. It works, I guess. But I think I might have preferred an all green look.

I used brown eyeliner for the upper lid and outer coners and uh... :| i'm not sure it came out that great. I could probably use a better product, and LOTS more practice. and black would have been better. oh well, here's what I used:

Face:
Paula's Choice Natural Finish Oil Absorbing Makeup in Natural Ivory
Random mineral powder
MAC Pinch Me Blush

Eyes:
MAC Beige-ing Shadestick as base
MAC Summer Neutral e/s as a wash
Splash Eye Sparkle in Caribbean Bronze on outer lid
MAC Night Light piggie outer bottom of upper lid and on lower lid
MAC Golden Lemon on inner corners
Liner in Maybelline Expert Wear Brownish Black
L'oreal Voluminous Black Mascara

Lips:
Rimmel Birthday Suit Lipstick
Revlon Toast to Shine Lipgloss

Have you ever tried rimming your eye and tightlining in a bronze or brown color to bring out that great shaped eye you have?

what is tightlining?

i remember in high school i used to line the whole eye with black eyeliner, all the way around the inner corner, and top and bottom and winging out on the outside. i was much better at it then! it would bring out my eye shape and make my eye color look really nice, too.

i couldn't wear that kind of dramatic thing now. i'm just so much more low key with my makeup. once i get a good black eyeliner i will try it out and post it on here.

also, i'm wondering: what is "rimming" and what is "Tightlining" ? i'm guessing it's just lining, but is there is a special technique that is tightlining?

thanks!
