I'm so sorry I didn't see this before! I'm sure you looked lovely though. What a beautiful dress! :O

I just answered! :) Stick with the classy theme!

Sure do!

Hello!
I didn't mean to scare you with the whole wrinkle thing! Haha. It's okay to gently pull the skin, as long as you aren't tugging too hard. It also helps to lean your head back while looking into the mirror because that stretches your eyelid a bit. You might find that you'll have to tug less when you use that little trick! :) Hope that helps! -
Always a fan of Urban Decay Naked and Naked 2 palettes! I've been obsessed with theBalm's Nude'Tude palette as well! As far as I know, bh cosmetics sells the same palettes as coastal scents and crown brush. I have the 88 matte palette and it's definitely decent quality, but no where near as pigmented as MAC, Urban Decay, Sephora, etc.

Express away! :)
Try playing with brightly colored liners! It's not too out there but will still be noticeable and fun! -
I'm quite fond of Sephora's liners. They apply smoothly and get the job done for much cheaper than brands like MUFE and Urban Decay. For extra staying power, just set with a powder in a similar color.

I used to want gray eyes more than anything, so I spent way too much money on gray and hazel color contacts. Shortly after buying them, I decided I loved my brown eyes and stopped wearing them. Go figure. Oh well!

I'm not sure! I have too many ideas. If only Halloween was a week long! I was Rosie the Riveter last year and adored it. I've always loved the pin-up look, so that was an option too... and then I still really love gory, out-of-the-norm-for-a-girl things, like that skeleton makeup I posted. -sigh- So many options, so little time. ;)

Perhaps a primer applied before your liner would help? You could also try setting it with a small amount of eyeshadow to soak up any excess moisture from the liner. Hope this helps!

I'm definitely a fan! They set quickly and stay put! Not so great for smudging if that's what you're looking for. I love the variety of colors they come in, too!

Oops! I think I just answered it :D

Hello!
I was actually going to say a smokey eye, haha! Whenever I think red, I think of going all out. But, since you're sick of that look, I think a neutral eye with a winged liner and a bold red lip would be just as stunning! The red lip will tie in with your dress but won't take attention away from it. -
If you don't have too many problem areas, you could just use a concealer on your blemishes and blend it out well. Then to set it, use a sheer powder. You could also try a BB Cream, which is similar to a tinted moisturizer. It'll even out your skin and still leave you with a natural finish.

It depends what look you're going for: if you're looking to smoke it out, you could use the same color for the lid under the eye as well and blend really well. If you're going for something more clean, you could use a light shimmer to add a glow and emphasize your eyes, or nothing at all. Lining the waterline is great for a quick look, but it can also make your eyes appear smaller. If you choose a dark liner, try a light highlight in the inner corner of the eye to add some lightness.

I can't see the picture :/ But by the way you describe your eye color, you can basically pull off anything. Golds and purples would look lovely! :)

Hello! Bronze and gray can look good together, but if you layer one atop the other, it may look a bit muddy. You could try applying the bronze to the crease, a black liner over the lid as a base, and the gray on top of that. That way, you'll still have the colors you're going for without the risk of over blending into a color you weren't going for. Hope this helps!
Have fun! :) -
First of all, your eyes sound incredible!
You can basically wear any colors you'd like. It depends what part of your eyes you want to make most noticeable. But really, you kind of get the best of 4 worlds. ;) -
I have no idea how many I have, haha. A lot of them are duplicates since I freelance. The main ones I use for eyes though are a fluffy blending brush for the crease, a smudger brush for deepening the crease or smoking out the lashlines, a dense flat shader brush for packing on color, an angled liner brush for adding a shadow liner, a pointed liner brush for gel liner, a flat shader brush for the highlight, a small detailed brush for cleaning up with concealer or adding an inner corner highlight... and I think thats about it!
Crown Brush, ELF, and Real Techniques are some of my favorite brands. :)
