Learning your eyes

 (Photo credit: Wikipedia)

The first lesson I had to learn is you can't do what other people do. When you put on eye shadow you have do it according to you eyes. Different people have different shaped eyes. That means you have to do different things when you apply the shadow. I have deep set, wide, hooded eyes. I can't do a lot of looks that other people do without looking crazy. LOL! 

You have to learn what works best for your eyes. Here is a video that shows a little about finding and figuring out where things are on your eye. I love watching his videos.

Social Goodies

I like sites like Social Goodies. It create discounts similar to groupon. I've been watching them because they are the only site that sales discounted product for NYX (on the site it says you pronounce it "nicks" but I always want to say N. Y. X.)


I love using the lip creams. I use them on my lips the way you would use primer/pots on the eyes. I need some more colors because I just have a few. This would be a great way to get what I want for 50% off. YES! Who isn't a sucker for a bargain.


I need some more colors to add to my minor collection. It creates an awesome base! I'll have to do a tutorial on that one. I really wanted to get their version of Urban Decay's Naked palette. Lord knows I refuse to spend $50 on eyeshadows.
