My first REAL eye makeup

We had an early Christmas this year, because we are flying to India on Christmas eve. The only sad part about not having Christmas on time is the lack of energy and enthusiasm to put up lights and trees. Oh well !

So, this year I requested Sephora's ultimate eye makeup kit and Santa granted my wish :). This is Sephora's Limited Edition Ultimate Blockbuster eye makeup kit.

On my cosmetics expert friend, P's advise I went online and watched some "How to do eye makeup videos". The good part is that there are a lot of videos with all sorts of techniques and color matchings, the bad part is that they make it look so easy. Let me tell you, eye makeup is NOT EASY and is definitely an art. Being a tom boy all my childhood and only getting into makeup stuff in the past few years is rough. Like my friend P says, we don't have 15 years of practice :(.

Anyways, so after a few tries I finally got something that looked decent and I got so excited about it and I decided to post my results (the pic below). The right eye (as you see it) is my take on evening wear, hence the glitter. It has glittery brown on the eyelid, a dark almost black on the crease between the eyelid and the brow and right below the brow is a glittery white. And I finished it with a dark brown eye liner. The left eye is more for daily wear; light pink on the eye lid and white under the brow and a darker pink coming from the outer side of the eye inwards, almost 1/3rd of the way in (not sure if you can see it here.. see I told you its an art... :-) ), finished with a black eyeliner.

Please let me know what you think :D.
