white it makes you look wide awake even if your not

None, haven't worked out how to use the stuff without taking my eyes out. Fancy a green one as I have really got into green eyeshadow thanks to MN recommendation.

puff you're my new hero!

I like a neutral colour swept all over, with a bit if highlighter on browbone. My fave eyeshadow is a mac blusher at the mo!

Gobbledigook · 29/11/2005 22:28

Don't use a pencil - don't really know what to do with it tbh

Am I the only one to use blue? Am I stuck in a make-up time warp?

puff · 29/11/2005 22:29

God I love make up, I just can't help myself. Dh says "but you've only got 2 bloody eyes woman, why do you need all this stuff?"

I don't wear it every day even

puff · 29/11/2005 22:30

gdk - get one with a smudger at the other end and try it out

Dark green. Addicted to the stuff. It's Ultima II but I don't know if they make it any more

puff · 29/11/2005 22:33

I like Ultima II stuff tamum, had some fab eyecream of theirs but haven't been able to find it since

tamum · 29/11/2005 22:34

Will you be my hero too?

(lol at your dh, by the way!)

notasheep · 29/11/2005 22:34

Dont do eye pencils

Frostythesurfmum · 29/11/2005 22:36

How nice of you to say so Cod! My nice blue lips. That was a typo wasn't it? . Actually I think I'm having a different conversation, mine is eyeliner. Ignore me, I knew I should never have joined a thread on Style.

BTW Cod I thought of you today. A mum at pre-school saw dd and said "oh, so this is surferbaby who I've heard so much about". I made sure I smiled nicely and commented on the weather.

puff · 29/11/2005 22:57

hmmm can't resist talking about eyeshadow too (I am so cerebral )

My all time favourite sounds disgusting but looks fab used very sparingly for a night out.

It's by Nars, and it looks black in the compact, but is actually a v v deep purple.

Gives you that lovely smokey "come hither" 30's film star look
