Nah, it's just that the lighting is different. The last pics were taken in my room, this new pic was taken in my dressing room at work.

Way to rock your new look out. You look awesome! Seriously, look at the before and after, you barely look like the same girl. I'm proud.

You look pretty! you should keep your hair like that.![]()





Agreed, especially the hair. In the first pictures it looked really stringy, the curl gives it volume. It does appear as though you've lost weight since the first photos you posted of yourself as well.
I'd burn that red dress though. Keep up the improvement!
Edited to say by first photos I mean the first nude photos posted prior to beginning dancing.

Yes. Three words: Black. cocktail. dress.
It's your new best friend and moneymaker.

Your hair/makeup/outfit looks a million times better. Also, I like your choice of coach glasses.

Look at that hottie!!![]()

I thought Mila Kunis was Meg, if so reminding custies of her isn't all that bad?
I've found some that were close to this color, but there's just something about this one in particular, they lace it with magic fairy dust or something because when I wear this eyeshadow I get soooo many compliments on my eye color. I bought almost the same color, MAC Bronze, but it still wasn't the same to me!
Good eyeshadow brushes are your friend.
This: http://www.maccosmetics.com/product/...PRODUCT_ID=383 to just apply it across your lid.
This: http://www.maccosmetics.com/product/...PRODUCT_ID=386 to smudge the eyeliner/eyeshadow on the bottom for a smoky look, and to use a darker brown eyeshadow as an eyeliner on the top for a really smoky brown eye.
This: http://www.maccosmetics.com/product/...PRODUCT_ID=265 to blend it along your crease and up to your browbone.
And then of course this: http://www.makeupalley.com/product/s...AC/Eye_Shadow/ To put right underneath your brow and in the inner corners of your eyes. It goes on sheer and is buildable for how dramatic of a look you wish to achieve. I also put black eyeliner on the inner bottom rim, or waterline of my eye, this completes the whole look for me.
Here's me with all these! This is just one eyeshadow color and one brow bone highlighter blended really well.... Try it! It's really easy and looks amazing!
^ Wow...I seriously wish I had the talent to do things like that with my makeup! I'm makeup-tarded.





That color really brings out your eye color!
OP- I forgot what your eye color was, but blues benefit from golds and browns, greens from pink/red/purple tones, and brown is kinda neutral and can be played up with several colors... I have green eyes and if I put on a dark blue they look brown.

^^ I second the golds, and silvers work too if your eyes have a large amount of grey in them like mine do. This makeup company, Nyx, has great products and they're cheap as shit too, here's a few of my favourites:
Chrome eyeshadow in charcoal.
Their black has a nice subtle shimmer to it.
The gold one is Canary, gorgeous colour.
The black liquid liner kicks ass.
Great tutorial using the Nyx products, this is how I do my makeup for work more or less.
Sorry, I'm a total convert- and the eyeshadows are like $4 a pop and last forever!
Oh and I was blessed by the skin gods, so this is all I use for foundation, Maybelline Shine Free Powder. JD gave this to me because she wasn't using it, and I fell in love with it:
Hell maybe I'll do an eye up and post the results. My cab ditched me once again and my husband's at work so I don't have shit else to do





Holy crap, you look amazing now!! It makes me want a make over.![]()
Yes, Mediocrity is right! Especially that NYX black eyeshadow, it's a total knock off cheap version of MAC carbon black, there's no difference except the price.
Med, do your eyes and post pics! I want to see this!





ya silvers are great on grey ish eyes. i have grey eyes with a bit of a blue hue, no green so silver is fabulous. i havent tried gold in forever... i used to be pale as fuck before i discovered the wonder of fake tans and gold looks awful on really cool pale skin. maybe bronze or gold would work on me now since i have a fake tan...
The best thing i have heard in a strip club to date:
customer: we should get married right now! we should get a shotgun marriage!
me: uhh... i think you are misunderstanding what a shotgun marriage means. A shotgun marriage means you knock me up and my daddy shows up at your door with a gun and forces you to marry me and raise the baby. You mean elope.
customer: hmm... nah actually i will take the shotgun marriage. At least then we would be having sex.





I love Nyx, especially their loose glitter... makes great makeshift pasties when combined with fabric paint or liquid latex.They sell it at wig stores I believe.

NYX eye shadows rock!





^^^You don't think men in Kansas care about how women look?





Ok here we go- all dolled up and nowhere to go because my taxi never came and husband can't leave work to come get me. I really don't have a big nose. My webcam is uber shitty and I had to get my face really close in order for you kids to see what I've done here. Also, my mouth is not that small, even though said husband does tell me I look like a Japanimation character. This is how I look on any given night, without the WTF AM I PUSHING TEH RIGHT BUTTONZ look of course.
I try and play up the smoky eye because I look so young in the first place- I attached a picture of me without makeup, it's from about two years ago but I still look the damn same. I spend a LOT of time on mascara, I always make sure to get the little lashes in the corners and do the bottoms meticulously. I don't wear falsies often, and since my eyes are essentially steel grey it helps with dimension.
And yes, I always make that face because I'm not photogenic.
