    yw! I wonder what techniques they are using? Some of them just seem too perfect for simple blending...is there airbrushing going on???

    eta oh gosh check out some of the links to the right there are some cool how-to videos.

    Every time I try to do my eye make up, I end up looking like either someone punched me in my eyes or I haven't slept in a week. Not sexy. I need to practice. Desperately.

    Did you guys notice how perfect their eyebrows are? I'm tempted to order some brow stencils.

    Eyebrow threading. Very popular in M.E.

    Also, they use pure kohl from Egypt. My former dance director used to import it directly from Cairo. Tough to get the hang of initially, but it makes that beautiful deep, defined black color.

    In M.E. culture, the eyes, ayoonan, are very important. Especially since most women are encouraged (forced some places?) to dress very conservatively.

    The eyes are the palette that can be played with safely. Allow the female to "pretty up" without dressing provacatively and invoking social dissaproval.

    Plus many M.E. women have huge, gorgeous eyes with great lids. I have those slavic semi-hooded lids and they are much harder to color.

    ^I've had it done before and it's AWESOME, gives you that perfect brow. But alas, I know of nobody locally who does it.


    eta : HEre's a better video fast forward to about 1:30. I don't know why it's entitled "ouch" because I didn't find it painful at all...much more comfortable than waxing for sure.

    Eyebrow threading... very painful... I've had it done a few times. I still prefer waxing lol.

    The threading is they have this funky string thing that they like twist over your eyebrows to pull out the hair. It just feels so weird. I did not like it at all lol.

    Those are beautiful. I wish I could wear liner on the inside waterline of my eye but I can't. Makes my eyes tear up and water all over the place.

    Wow...I so prefer threading over waxing. It's like tweezing on a mass scale. The waxing feels like it's ripping the skin off of my eyes. Although, with that kind of "ripping" on soft, sensitive eye area skin...I can't imagine the sag that would come with it in later years.

    I'll stick to threading and tweezing.

    Of course, I had my eyebrows waxed a few years ago and the woman fucked up my eyebrows so bad...they've never really recovered from that...I should go get them professionally shaped and all someplace downtown where they charge you and arm and leg to get some hair pulled from your eyebrows.

    Well i just wanna say that even though I can't do dramatic eye make up for shit, I have this eyeshadow primer from Sephora and it makes color SO much richer, plus it lasts all day. The primer comes in a light purple tube.

    Wow, I wish I looked like that. lol. Beautiful.

    A lot of middle eastern women have perfect eyebrows and long thick black lashes, so that plays a role too.

    I'll check it out when I can, just know that pics of Arabic eye makeup are notoriously photoshopped. There was a big discussion on Specktra about it awhile ago. A lot of Middle Eastern artists use MUFE shadows for their bright matte colors, check em out!!

    Has anybody ever used real kohl? I was going to order some but I've read reports online that up to 1/3 of the imported kohls have tested positive for lead. How can one ensure that the kohl is lead-free? (short of running it through an NMR spectrometer which I actually have access to but I'm not sure how well that would go over in the chemistry department. "um, yeah, I just wanna see if my eyeliner has any lead")

    They sell lead testing strips in the stores.

    Usually, the people who buy them are parents to see if the kid toys have lead in them. But, you can use it for other things, as well.
