This is even MUCH crazier than my usual picture-overload. NOT for dial-up users!!

Let's get straight to it.

my favorite on you was #5

I love them all, but 5 is my favorite! I'm totally going to try doing that one. I'll *try* to take a picture if I do, but all the close ups of my eyes come out totally blurry. Any tips?

[bethanyh]

oh yeah, I'm full of camera tips :-D
just IM me sometime, and if I have the time I'll go through some steps that you can use to get a good picture with your cam :-)

Wow! They are all GORGEOUS!

Hey - do you have any eyeshadow tutorials online? I sure love painting pictures of great eyemakeup, but when it comes to putting it on myself it ends up a smudgy mess. Is there some sort of basecoat or topcoat you use?

[bethanyh]

hey :-)
sorry I didn't get back to you earlier! Ok, about a tutorial--this is really nice for beginning: http://www.marykay.com/whatsnew/applicationstips/eyepromise/applyhere.aspx?tab=whatsnew

check this out for a talk about primer & base: http://community.livejournal.com/eyeshadowsluts/1754986.html

we don't use any thing as a "topcoat" but yes, definately primers & bases!

as for that tutorial, I would suggest substituting colors by lightest-to-darkest and applying as they show...does that make sense?

Simply magnificent! You must have an awesome make up drawer - probably more like a treasure chest :) I love MAC!!! Glad lipglass is still hip, been wearing it since late 90s lol

I LOVED 3 (so much green!) and 5. I totally own that same--or at least a very, very similar--necklace to the one you are wearing in 4...you have great taste, I must say! :P
