AsSalamu' Alaykum,

I

eye make up.

I was watching a couple videos last night on how to apply eye make-up, I loved this look YouTube - Sultry, Sexy Purple Smokey Eye eyeshadow look and this is a really good inspired version [also she is just so super cute, she's great to watch!] YouTube - AMY WINEHOUSE EYE LINER MAKEUP INSPIRED LOOK . I don't know if I'd be able to pull off the second look, but she's pulling it off way better than Amy Winehouse herself.

I also liked this look YouTube - AUTUMN GODDESS EYES w/ MAC make up golds,orange & brown

I'm going to go buy some Max Factor, I love how it turned out in a lot of the videos.

My skin is way too dumb sensitive to even bother getting into facial make-up.

Lip gloss all the way.

Oh and Carmex.

A lot of people LOVE Burt's Bees- I can't get over the stench.

I do want to at least try Burt's Bees Lip Shimmer though.

Rant: I HATE when mascara commercials feature a chick who CLEARLY has fake lashes on and fronts like their mascara product alone will give you that look. Please.

If Sephora is too steep for you try finding an ulta, its not on the same level as sephora but its slowing getting better brands. I love sephora but dont really buy in anything in the store because you can just get it at sephora.com for 20% with an online code...

Bobby brown makes a great tinted mositurizer for those of you who dont want a face full of makeup. You get great coverage and its so light it feels like your not wearing anything.

YouTube - Sexy Smoky Eye Tutorial

i liked the look on her... i wonder if it'll work on desi eyes..

Sumiyia, I LOVE how she did those smoky eyes, very sexy. Though, as one of the comments suggested, I think it looks best with asian eyes. I have almond shaped but I don't think I could pull it off. I wish I could though.

So how much make up do you guys wear on a daily basis? just eyeliner and lip gloss or the whole shebang?

sumiyia · #11 (**permalink**) 02-11-2008, 07:50 PM

woot! a smokey eye look that you can actually wear in the daytime without looking over done...

Itz, I only do my eyes and wear lip gloss. How I do my eyes depends on my mood and outfit of the day lol. Also if I break out, then I usually do up my eyes in such a way that it'll bring the attention to them.

sumiyia, yeah I do my eyes almost exactly like that sometimes. It turns out really nice. I actually prefer brown smoky eyes than black for my eyes & complexion.

Iman came out with this really nice make-up book:

Concealer, foundation, a ton of blush

, eyeshadow, eyeliner, and gloss.

Though to perfect all that takes me 10 minutes at the most, so its not a big deal for me anymore.

I only wear eyeliner and lipgloss... Once in a blue moon I use eyeshadow... I've NEVER used foundation. Can you feel it all day?
