ColdDayInHell omg that is talent, amazinggg ! I wish I could do something like that, vibrant and bright. I do some smokey looks, but I find Im too neutral. I go really smokey for a night out but it doesnt show up on me so well.. so I need some new techniques or something hehe

 
Aw, thanks, Magosienne, Jennyjean and Monica!

i usually just apply foundation, black eyeliner, mascara, and some blush. i have a hard time with eyeshadows so i try to keep it light and neutral.

 
same here, i have trouble with eyeshadow so i dont really use it but my most favorite looks are the only ones i use: my everyday look and my special occasion/party look. The pic is of my party look bcuz my everyday look is nothing special really. Its liquid liner on top, pencil liner on bottom, white liner on waterline and mascara!!



 
I stuck with the same makeup look for about 2 years, but this year I've gone way out of my 'zone' and tried new stuff. I probably wouldn't be able to do what I can now if not for many tutorials I found online as well as this place. Seeing a lot of different makeup styles and brands helped me find a nice balance for my face.

My everyday casual look is something like:

- mineral foundation

- Urban Decay Shadow Primer Potion

- black eyeliner (a mix of liquid & pencil liner) in a wing shape or slightly modified wing shape

- colorful eyeshadow, liquid eyeshadow and/or color liner

- black or purple mascara

- light pink lip gloss or just shiny lip chap if my lips are dry and damaged

It's simple, but I think it looks great on me, and it brings out my blue eyes nicely. I go heavier when I go out, but I always base my colors and even my liner around what I'm wearing. Sometimes I use black liquid eyeliner on my top lid and add color around it if I'm wearing something Gothic or dark, but generally I like to stick to bright or light colors and quirky eyeliner. :3

I never notice a difference when I look in the mirror, but apparently my eyes look purple-tinged around the pupil when I wear it. o_O

 
My fav is a shimmery neutral eye color with strong "cat eye" eye liner and a very strong lip color like red or fuschia. However, I also really like a colorful but smokey eye like dark blue or green with a very glossy nude lip.

 
I have dark blonde hair & blue eyes & find many bold looks can look dodgy on me. I love smoky black eyes at night. MAC shadestick in Sharkskin is wonderful, either on its own or as a base with maybe a deep pigment over it, like one of MAC's purples, blues or greens ...oh & lashings of Benefit Bad Gal Mascara.

For daytime subtle looks, I use Benefit's creasless cream eyeshadows. Tattle Tale as a brow highlighter, RSVP over the lid, Get Figgy in my outer corner & a smudge of Skinny Jeans over the lid as a liner.

 
Xexuxa's eye is purdy (if that's your eye in the icon. lol)

@ yc2405:

That sounds lovely. I need to get me some MAC makeup.. :{ I've heard really great things about it from a few people now.

 
For an everyday look I like liquid liner on my top lid with a slight flick on the end, lots of mascara and sheer skin

for going out I like to do smoky eyes, either with a bronze or dark gold going into a dark brown or black which make my eyes look blue or a shimmery purple going into a dark brown which makes my eyes look a light greeny colour

Ooh cool!! I know almay makes an amethyst mascara in one of their collections for brown eyes, Im gonna have to try that!!
 
I like the natural look on myself, i don't like dramatic looks unless i really HAVE to wear them, which is very rare since i never go out to parties or weddings or anything like that, so i preffer this one on me:
