Wow, it's been a long time since I posted it seems. I'm lazy. Image heavy as per usual. I think about 12-13 FOTDs

I really hate photobucket since they started trying to make it all fancy...it never works right now and it loads SO SLOW.

I have a similar problem with blending, especially with darker colours. I tend to lose them a bit in the blending process until they're virtually not there. I think UDPP works well with lighter colours, but for darker colours I'm now also using sharkskin shadestick underneath because I think they really need something stickier and more intense to bring them out and keep them in place.

Look number 12 really suits you. I mean, they're all great but I think you really suit the delicate colours!

I use shadesticks with other colors but I haven't tried sharkskin yet. Maybe I'll pick it up. I find the shadesticks get dry really easy though which frustrates me.

Thanks, I really liked that look. I don't usually like light colors on me, I usually go for more ridiculous colors but maybe that is just my personality ha.

The blue and gold even though not majorly blended together, I think looks great. I love the contrast of the two colours.

I have tiny eyes too. As for smokeys, try not to line your entire lower lashline/waterline in black, if you do, it gives a "squinty" illusion.
Instead, do your regular heavy black upper lashline. Then, try smudging your outer lower lashline in black/dark then leave the lower inner corner bare or dab some silver or white shadow there to brighten and widen you eyes. Try it and see how it goes :)

Thanks. And I'll try that, I usually just have a problem with everything just ending up in a horrible messy blob of black and I get frustrated and wipe it off before I even get to the liner.

You are amazing! I love your color schemes, your placements, and I think your blending is rather nice!!!!
Also, I really like your nails. They have nice shape & the colors always look nice on you. As for the blending question, I blend like a windshield wiper. It always seems to work well for me. The best blending brush I've found is MARK's eyeshadow blending brush. I love that brush & it's only like $5. I like your eyebrows thick too. I think they look great on you.

Thanks sweetie =) Do you use any base or do you just go for it? I've heard so many great things about MARK brushes I should probably give them a try.

I used UDPP. I swear it's like Jesus in a bottle. It's wonderful stuff. I don't know how I would get by without it. Get some! You should try the MARK brushes especially since they are hella cheap. They are $5 each!!!

For your blending question, try using a shadestick as a base. Since it's thicker and creamier it'll grab the colors better so they don't get blended away.
