My best friend, [livejournal.com profile] ashe_frost, has an adorable little cousin named Shyla, who is obsessed with make-up. When I posted the handbag meme, she told Ashe how much she liked my make up and my lipgloss (even though she couldn't see them).

So, I said I would take her a picture or two of all my make up so she could see.

What I think would be really sweet, would be if all the girls on my flist also emptied out their make-up bags and posted a picture in comments, telling us about what they have. It would totally make this little girl's day.





- I wear a lot of green and brown eyeshadow because I have brown eyes. The two little pots on the left are glittery green and silver, but I don't wear those very much.

- the black palette of eyeshadows is by Urban Decay, and I like that brand a lot; I bought it at Heathrow Airport when Julie and I were going on holiday to Vancouver, but I can't find it anywhere else! I need a refill for Chopper and Mildew!

- I also wear a lot of eyeliner (although I put eyeshadow over the top, so it's less bold), so you can see three pencils and one liquid eyeliner there, as well as my mascara. I almost bought a green mascara yesterday, but I realised I was going to start looking like a tree.

- all the red items are lipgloss, because I have very dark lips; the silver lipstick was a from when I did a play and had to also be make-up artist for all the boys. That was the lipstick they wore! (It's a really nice shade) I also have a tub of Carmex, which is really good to keep your lips soft. Secret tip: if you put it on spots, it makes them hurt less and dries them up quickly.

- on the far right is my base make up; there's my concealer and foundation (which is a mousse, instead of a powder or a cream) and some blusher. Usually, I wear my foundation a tiny bit light and give myself rosy little cheeks like I live on a farm or something. O_o

- at the top is my nail varnish, and it's the only nailvarnish I own. It's black. Because it was always my ambition in life for people to dress up as me on Hallowe'en.

- the mirror is really, really old. It was a free gift with Bliss magazine when I was about 15 years old, and used to have a little picture frame in the empty side. At that time, the picture in it was of Green Day.

- and then we have my make-up bag; it cost about £3 and was made by six year olds in the darkest corners of Asia. I don't shop at Primark anymore.

I dont shop at Primark either. I guess it was kind of obvious, wasnt it? How could they sell stuff that cheap if they werent getting the clothes made on the cheap?

I would be only too happy to help out if I wore make-up.

I suddenly feel like a traitor to my gender for saying I don't.

I might take all my make up out tonight and reorganize it and take pictures. I have two bags of it, technically. Though it's mainly because my little bag won't fit into the big one when my jewelery is in there.

Heh. I do have more make up than this, but that's all the stuff I carry around with me.

I usually only keep lipgloss and mascara in my bag. If I'm going to be putting make up on at work, I just bring my bags with me. It doesn't happen often.

I'll take a picture of my stuff and send it to you in a little, but there's a community dedicated to awesome eyeshadows. It's really cool, just don't let the niece take a look at the address.
