As far as eyeliner goes practise makes perfect. I spent six weeks wearing cat-eye eyeliner everyday so i perfected my technique. start out with pencil and work up to gel and then liquid. I use my index finger to pull my eyelid taught and make a line as close to my lashes as possible and make it thicker by layering. Or you can make tiny dashes for a very natural look. For cat eyes, the hardest part is making them match on both sides. Make -up artist tick of the trade? A piece of scotch tape makes a good straightedge for a clean line.

And if you feel like you look weird in eyelier try using eyeshadow and an angled brush for a softer look. This works very nicely in colours that aren't black. Navy, Grey, Plum, Chocolate.

God cosmetology school taught me a lot.


I'm going to request cat eye liner lessons when you move here, Ursula!

Any chance you could do a YouTube tutorial on cats eyes! :P
I will practice, thanks for the tips, I don't pull the skin tight so I can never get the line that close so there is an annoying gap! I will test ya tips tonight, maybe I will post the results.

I really like using oil as a moisturizer, I have started adding other oils like tea tree oil, you can a few drops to the almond oil :)

i do cat eye eyeliner everyday for almost 17years :) and the best thing i've ever try is plain black eyeshadow, eyeliner brush and saliva my set contains a mac eyeshadow, sephora brush and my own moisturiser.
I bought an organic foundation which look like more like a BB cream, i'm very pleased and no glycol, no silicones etc. and ultra cheap (german brand)
if your skin is so dry stop foundation and try BB cream with a good thick concealer (you just put a few under eyes and on spots) it's better when the age is coming :wink:


ps : almond oil isn't moisturizing, it nourishing, if you want moisture use water product, oil different from water sweetie. Oil makes skin soft and silky but dry ! if you want to use oil, put on a first layer aloe vera gel then oil to capture the water inside you skin. And hum hum as we're not young anymore better use real argan oil instead of almond, it's better on wrinkles. (but be careful it's really really hard to find a good ones, and it's rare and it's expensive), i found a good one and quite cheap on http://www.aroma-zone.com/aroma/accueil_fra.asp

argan oil is good for your hair! Just a tiny bit though. If you use too much you look like you've soaked your head in bacon grease.

I have super dry skin. I usually have a lot of trouble finding a cleanser I like that doesn't dry my skin out too much. But I found one. Marionnaud is a French company and I am OBSESSED with it. A travel size container of it is 3 euro. I wont use ay other cleanser. I am obsessed. It's a cleansing milk which is better and less harsh for dry skin.

:lol: my mom was a huge fan of marionnaud products, it's very french to use cleanser milk, i'm into japanese layering way to go, and i'm fully organic so for makeup removal and both cleanser i use a liquid from an israelian brand, i use chamomille for sensitive skin and almond for dry skin. I bought almost ten tube in sale and one last 4months with an everyday use, a haselnut of product is enough. can't imagine what i'm going to do when my war supplies getting over as it seems not be sent in france anymore.

@queenie, serum is THE clue, i'm using an organic one full of acide hyaluronic and goji extract from a german brand, the best of the best for the cheapest price ever (4.5€ D% )
http://misstrendykitty.blogspot.fr/2011 ... metik.html

90% of the products i use from my head to toes included cologne and makeup are alverde brand. If you go to germany don't forget to spend your dollars into DM stores

néroli or rose hydrolat (it's not a water ((blossoms infused or boiled into water)), it's the steam which go out the chemney during the essential oil production). I use it to clean my face on morning, no water, no soap. But it depends what you are using as makeup remover, if it's milk, toner is needed, foam cleanser, unnecessary.

We need to initiate Jordie into the girlie make up club :luv:

So its early to say but...this serum is awesome! And the moisturizer too. It really does pay to pay a little more!

I am suuuuuper low maintenance. I am very luck to have super clear skin. I just wash my face and moisturize. but my makeup is a little more high maintenance. I lighten my eyebrows so you cant see how dark they are because I fill them in the same bright orange as my hair. I use eyeshadow mixed with primer to make a paste and fill my brows in. I use NYX eyeshadow single in "Hot Orange". And then I prime my eyelids and dust with translucent powder so my thick eyeliner doesn't move. and then I use Maybelline's Line Stiletto liquid eyeliner. it's not expensive and has a great spongy brush. I dot the eyeline between my eyelashes on my lower lash line to make a soft line. It makes my eyes look realy wide and doe-y. I use Ultimate Face mascara, but that's because I got it for free at school. I really like Lancôme's mascara but it smells very flowery. I don't wear blush or any foundation on my face because makeup over freckles looks weird and ruddy. I use concealer if I have a few spots on my chin or wherever. I don't concea under my eyes because I am secretly really in to under eye circles. I ALWAYS wear lipstick. always. My favourite red is $.97 from NYC called "Retro Red" . I also really like Portland Black Lipstick Co, for dark lips. I have a colour from them called "black lagoon" and its like emerald-blue-black. and I like Lime Crime for opaque longwear broght colours. I have a bright blue and a lavender grey from them.
I use a lip balm sparingly, then lipstick, then blot, then lipstick again and then some translucent powder.
ALSO paul Mitchell makes a hair/ skin moisturizer called Awapuhi Moisture mist and it's the best product ever. it makes your hair soft and shiiny, soothes sunburns, and sets makeup. But if I don't have that I do a very quick spritz of hairspray and my face stays put.


Of course, I have one aim, the grotesque. If I am not grotesque I am nothing.
