    I had my makeup trial on Saturday. I was a little nervous at first, because I usually don't wear much makeup. But once I got used to it I really liked it! What do you guys think? Which look do you like better? (Please excuse my pulled back hair and weird smiles!)

    The first look is heavier on the eyes and lighter on the lips:

    And this is the second look, lighter on the eye and a darker lip:

    I know they look so similar, but do you guys think one looks better than the other? Or is there anything you think I should change for the day of? Thanks bees!

    Yay, I"m glad to see most people like the first look! I think that's the one I'm leaning toward as well :) Thanks for all the compliments--I really loved the woman who did my makeup. She worked with Kevyn Aucoin, if any of you have ever heard of him? He did AMAZING work, so I guess she learned from good teachers.

    Like crebre80 said - both are indeed stunning...

    I prefer the first - heavier on the eyes lighter on the lips Wink

    I love the first one!  I'm a huge fan of dramatic eyes and light lips.   Are those your real eyelashes?  They're so full and dark, that's the look I'm going for!

    I think the darker lip looks best on you. Other than that, I think maybe a bit more highlight on your brow bones (right under your eyebrown on the outside) and extending the darker brown shadow out a teensy bit on the lid would just make it just stunning.

    I love make-up though I don't wear it often and in most cases, I like a darker eye and lightly glossed lips so I definitely go with that for you.  Its such a romantic, sexy look to me and its a bit more natural than having the eyes and the lips done, which is more dramatic.  Anyway, it came out really nice on ya :)

    @blueshoes: They're fake lashes :)  My eyes are so big though that she didn't have to cut the fake lashes at all--she just stuck the whole thing on. They make my eyes look even bigger than usual. I was kind of worried when I first saw it that my eyes look TOO big--like freakish, bug eyed big. But I guess I"m getting used to it a little more now.

    I liked both - they were gorgeous, but I think my favorite is the first one.

    I like the first look the best, but you are gorgeous, so I think it'd be hard to look bad :)

    @hilsy: I think they look great!  Not too big, just thick and full without mascara clumps, which is what I always get, lol.

    Thank you guys! you are so sweet :)

    @blueshoes: clumpy mascara is one of my major pet peeves. I thought it would be clumpier with the fake lashes, but it actually wasn't at all. Probably because it was an expert applying it and not me!

    You look stunning both ways, but I absolutely love the first look!  Love the eyelashes too! :)
