Bobbi Brown Makeup Lessons

I went to redeem my remaining 3 lessons with B.Brown at Robinson, Raffles Place today. I didn't specify a makeup artist, so it was quite randomly selected.

I have to say her skills was not that great, and she poked my eyes three times, twice with eyeshadow brush and once with mascara. I realized I too good tempered already, I should have be fiercer to her after the second time. Her sorry wasn't sincere enough.

Still, I learnt a great deal. I finally know why my smoky eyes always failed big time. Instead of brushing on the outer corner, but higher a bit, I always start at the end of the eyes, which will make my eyes look more droopy. After she reminded me, I sort of had a small epiphany, "Orh.... No wonder"

I was quite bad at the eyeshadow part that she gave up on letting me draw on myself, and completed the whole look for me. Tsk tsk, isn't these makeup lessons suppose to correct my mistakes? I did have some hands on, but not much. Just the eyebrow and dusting an allover shadow.

I quite like the eye color she picked for me: A light pink, shimmer purple and black. =) The lip was plum berry i think. Pretty much close to my original lip color. However, I think she applied more strongly on my left eye then on the right. I didn't notice it until I saw it in the washroom, but since I already left, and I didn't want to risk her poking my eyes more, I just left it as it is.

I shall go practice more on my smoky eyes.
