My First Make-Up Attempt!

 

Hey guys x

 

If you know a lot about me (which a lot of you do by now!) then you'll know that I don't wear make-up.

 

However, for my birthday, I got the set above so that I could play around with it and see what I liked.

 

But because I'm in college in weekdays, I don't really want to experiment before school, and I don't really want to go out with my face looking like an experiment!

 

However, as I've been watching more make-up tutorials on YouTube, I thought that I would give it a try!

 

However, I didn't want to go anywhere where a lot of people would see me, but I did want to go out.

 

So I found the perfect opportunity: A driving lesson!

 

As I would be in the car, no one outside would be able to see me if I completely messed my face up, and my instructor doesn't care how I look either way, so I decided this would be the best option.

 

So this morning, I got this make-up down and played around with it.

 

There is only eye-shadow, mascara, eye-liner and blusher in this pack, so this is what I had to work with!

 

I started with my eyebrows:

 

I used the eyeliner pencil from the box because there was nothing there for my eyebrows. I literally just drew the outline of how I wanted them to look and then filled them in. I was really pleased with how they turned out, and I liked the darker colour that was given. Because my eyebrows (and hair) are a really dark brown, so they look black, but the black pencil really made them stand out!

The I worked on my eyes, first with mascara:

I used the mascara that came in the pack. I've messed around with mascara a few times, and I don't think I did a particularly good job this time, but as I wear glasses, I didn't think it would be noticeable!

Then I did eye-shadow:

I started off by doing the base with the grey colour above. I was going to do black, but I thought  that it would be a bit too dark. So then, I used the glitters purple and blended them together to achieve the look that I have above.

I also used this blusher, but I didn't see a point in taking a picture of it. You could only see it really close up, from a distance, it just made my skin look lighter, but I liked the effect.

And finally, for my lips, I just used the pink Vaseline that you can buy, but I don't have a picture because I forgot to take one! I love it because it makes my lips look shiny and moist, while giving them a pink twinge!

Anyway, this was my first attempt. I'll probably do many more in the future! Feel free to give me tips in the comments, I need as many as I can get!
