My Makeup - Then and Now!

Over the years my makeup has changed and with it my skills have developed (hopefully!) I have gone through phases, used new makeup products and extended the amount of products I use. Like most (if not all) people who read this blog, I love buying new makeup. I like trying out new products but I still have some products that I will always return to. However, I had to start somewhere.

I was between 12 and 13 when I started wearing makeup. I started with eyeliner. I may have been a little obsessed with it; I still am. Eyeliner has always been my favourite. I had a couple of cheap eyeliner pencils that I used to circle my eyes. I applied it quite thick and I avoided my waterline... I was too scared to even try applying eyeliner to my waterline. That is pretty much the only place I apply it now (unless I'm doing winged eyeliner.)

I started wearing foundation about a year later. At that point I didn't really know how to match it. I wore it a shade or two dark and it didn't help that after a while I starting setting it with what I think was a glittery bronzer that i'd received in a gift set. 

After realising how dark it was and just how awful it must have looked I started using BB cream in a much lighter shade; I now wonder if it was too light. 

I think that my makeup now looks a lot better, but I still have some developments to make. Most people start somewhere and most of the time it doesn't look the best for a while but 'practice makes perfect'!

Love you all xoxo
