I went to ICBC today and got my BCID, so this is about 12 hours old by the time I took pictures. I used Coal to line my upper waterline, Retro all over, Grassroots green in the inner corner, Aubergine in the outer v, and a tiny bit of Diamond to highlight. All I have on my lips is the DFC black lipgloss, and a bit of Satisfied on my cheeks, plus no foundation, just using it as spot concealer this week until I get that sample from the lovely and generous WendyD.

My jaw just dropped...your skin is absolutely gorgeous all by itself. You're radiant. The eyeshadow looks great, but I'm still in awe of your skin.

That was my first reaction too :o You have such gorgeous skin! You've mentioned before that you used to suffer from acne, I don't believe it :P

EDIT: Since I'm here, I might as well post mine :lol:

Superquick webcam shot taken just now, in crappy dorm room lighting. I usually have to have all three of the room's lights on, I feel so bad for using up so much energy. ._____."

I was running kind of behind on my way to my final (It was 4:00, not 4:30 as a had previously though... Thank god for roommates who are taking the same course...), so I kinda of just threw on the essentials in about 10minutes. It's pretty much my everyday look anyways, except I take quadruple the time on an average morning. It's a trade between enjoying my makeup routine, or an extra 30minutes of sleep. Somehow, the makeup always wins. It baffles me too!

Anyways:
Medium coverage foundation, 3 Buttery Gold: 17 Ivory
EDM Cookie Sheet Blush
EDM Postcards as a liner
NYX eye pencil in white on the inner corner of the eye
Silica powder all over

I really want to try my sample of Vixen blush since it looks so pretty in the jar, but my only blush brush at the moment is a Foptic (My BE one doesn't count, it's too painful to even consider using) and it's labeled sheer, so I'm thinking it won't show up too well with a foptic... That'll be the first thing I reach for when I get my new brushes. I'm an impatient cookie :B (PS. <3 the fast SN shipping... My order came in 5 business days, even with Canadian Thanksgiving.)

See those bags under my eyes? They're the results of studying for finals. ._____. I just started showing up since I've started post-secondary school, though ironically, I'm getting more sleep now than I ever did. I just had an ECON exam earlier, so now I don't feel like studying for my other once... Hence this long post to kill the time. .______. v

Kudos on the skin, wow! And I'm loving the shadow combination too! But excuse me, "I went to ICBC today and got my BCID" huh? Heheheh :)

And Wendy, makup always wins for me to. Don't rush me, I'm getting ready! Sleep? What sleep? Oh, you mean Sleep in a Jar ;)
