I don't generally wear makeup, but I am participating in a Rocktober challenge on Smule and thought I should put in some effort. Mecurochrome in the hair to boot. I don't even recognize me, but I don't think it looks too bad
Nicely done! Your eyes are mesmerizing.3 -

Thank you both 🤗 I'm not even sure how I managed to get my eye makeup like that. I don't have much experience or makeup3 -

Well some people are natural at doing some things. Maybe this is a hidden talent you have. I think you looked very lovely. How did the challenge go? If you answered that question already disregard. I usually read the last few posts so idk what's going on lol3 -

Your lips look perfect. Do you use a lip liner? My lips are always in rough shape, I cannot imagine mine being this smooth 😅
Thanks! I can confirm this was a good pic, my lips are usually in rough shape (I live in a cold dry climate). I think for this pic I used a sugar scrub and regular lip balm first. No lip liner, I don’t use lip liner but should especially with darker/bolder colours. It’s just pure laziness that I don’t and I don’t own one. BUT I would like to buy those clear ones so I don’t have to get liner for every colour of lipstick.
there's such a thing as clear lip liner? wow i'm out of the loop - that shows how much i know about makeup
DuWop makes a clear liner that has a touch of plumping to it. This is great for older ladies that are starting to get those little lip lines. They drive me crazy. I also highly recommend their lip plumping gloss "Lip Venom".
For dry lips (I have them as well), lip balm or Vaseline before bed and apply lip balm immediately after you wash your face. If you have flaky dry skin on your lips, use a tooth brush to exfoliate and then apply lip balm or lip plumper. Some people use sugar scrubs.2 -

So...how to say this without sounding like the serial killer from Silence of the Lambs?
You have amazing bone structure!
And your eye makeup was well done, for sure; they're poppin'!2 -
Aw ladies! Thank you so much. You are the best 🤗😘4

Where do you start in recognizing all the beauty, all around knowledge and absolute brilliance in this thread? Man alive....7

Back to the topic of short hair:
Pixie cut: I got a pixie cut summer of 2016 and kept it for a year. Longest hair on my head was probably half an inch long and it required gel and a little daily styling. It was a very feminine cut and I loved it! I will get this cut again!
Lady Mohawk: Fashioned much after Pink's Mohawks, I got a lady Mohawk summer of 2017. I loved it at first but quickly decided I wanted to grow it out. It was shaved on both sides but the top was long and to get the heighth of most of Pink's Mohawks I had to use a lot of gel and mousse for it to stand up and if I didn't get it right, it would just fall. It was also a very feminine haircut but not easy to maintain. Plus when I decided to grow it out, I kept getting the top cut down while letting the sides grow out. Not sure if I'd get this haircut again but I'm glad I did when I did.
Let me see if I can find the selfies.3 -
Testing out my Halloween dragon makeup on one side of my face. It has to stay put during a 5k so no foundation. Lipstick is a brown nude matte with eyeshadow patted into it. I took a quick shower to wash all the gunk off my face, used my usual face wash which gets most makeup off, and looked at myself in the mirror and I had a perfectly clean face with green lips! Then I had to go through two different makeup removers before I found one that worked. I was panicked I was going to have permanent green lipstick for a while there, when they say it stays on I guess they mean it!

You'll make a lovely dragon! I'm running a 5k on Halloween too! Maybe we should start a Halloween Fun Run 5k Thread!2 -
Would love to see a before/after the run @rheddmobile. If that makeup stays on after a 5k, they'd have customers for life!1

Awesome, I love it. Did you use the fishnet technique for the scales?0 -
@Yoshiboobs Yep! I used a fishnet wig cap. When I do it next time I am going to do it a little differently and use a darker matte color for the base - with both base and highlights being shimmer there isn’t enough contrast.2

i'm older so i qualify for dry lips. i can't believe how much my former mick jagger lips shrunk! i'm outside a lot all year long so the weather is hard on my skin - esp the lips! thanks for the lip tips 2 -

Here's the lady Mohawk! No lipstick, though, I just have a clear gloss on.

Awwwwww thank you, this was 3 years ago though and I don't have a profile shot or even the hairstyle anymore. Just the topic of short hair came up and...3 -
So...I got my eyebrows threaded earlier this week. She asked if I wanted them tinted. Of course I did cuz I’m a sucker. But, I’m actually really impressed. I think it’s great to not have to really fill them in. Just a tiny bit on the ends. I’d have liked them a little bit more on the cool side but you can’t really tell in pics I guess.
I couldn’t find a great pic without my hair partially covering them. 🤷🏻♀️7 -

Oooh I love it! I tint my brows at home. I have to do it monthly or they disappear 😌4 -

Yours look great! She matched the color well to your hair. I haven't tinted mine since January (I use Sephora's Brow Bar services)1 -

When you do yours or get them done does it actually shape them? I don’t understand how. Like, I thought it would just make what I have darker but it actually shaped them so well that I don’t have to compensate for the shape or anything. I was surprised.
And thank you!0 -

It can have the illusion of shaping them for a few days while the tint is still staining the skin under the brows.. mine still need filling in after that0
