Eyes are frequently referred to as the gateway to the soul.
If so, you want to play them up. This blog acts
as a gateway to some of my personal
experiences with eye makeup techniques and products. I wanted to write this to
make use of all of the money I've spent on worthless junk and on my favorite
products. My love and obsession with
make-up, but particularly the eyes, stems from my art interest. I had taken
many art classes in high school and was going to go to school for it but I
realized I wanted to write more than I wanted to sit in a room all day stressed
out over a painting I would never feel was truly finished. Any who, around the tenth grade I started to play
around with shadows I stole from my sister's room. After a while I realized that being an art
student had given me a steady hand and voila! I had the potential to do my own
makeup for prom and not cringe when I looked at myself in the mirror! The
reason I focus on the eyes is just because I've been obsessed with the unique
patterns and colors of eyes for as long as I can remember and I'm always amazed
at how different techniques can make one person's eyes look larger and another's
smaller. This interest took root as something I actually consider myself as
decent at in my sophomore year when I needed an art class and I saw stage
makeup was an option. The class gave me the ability to apply zombie makeup and
make myself look old but it also taught me why some people's eye's look smaller
and some larger with the same technique.
After that I've continued to hone my skills on others as well as being
introduced to newly released products. This blog will talk about bad products
I've used, in detail not just 'it's bad', more affordable versions of name
brand's as well as talk about techniques I love to use. To me makeup is a part
of fashion so every now and then my blog might mention a favorite fashion trend
that will go along with a great new eye technique or maybe even a new lip trend that
would accent it well. Alright, time to get back to my busy college life!
SEE you around soon=]
