I added a couple pics to my page of today’s debacle. I did my fingernails and makeup, first time doing my own makeup, and it shows. I will probably replace these pics when I have more time to do a better job. The liquid eyeliner just killed whatever look I was going for. Back to the how to videos...In positive news, I was in public today in leggings for the first time in public businesses. Went for a walk in sandals showing off my painted toes and fingernails also. Nobody said anything, so I guess that’s ok. Need to practice on my makeup skills big time, but I thought I’d share what a true amateur job looks like. 😘

New pics not showing up just yet. Maybe that’s a good thing. 😁🙃

We all have that first time sweety. It gets easier. I personally just tried the liquid liner. I got one with the brush and boy do I 💘 it.

Hi Beth,

I remember my first time applying makeup. Did you ever see those cute pictures of little girls who put on lipstick and it's all over their face? That is what I looked like, but I didn't think it was cute. Keep trying and you will get it. Watch some youtube videos and after a lot of practice, you will get your style and technique down.

I still haven't mastered the make-up.  After 50 how-to videos I'm still not there.  Like Eva and Trisha said it gets better (and more rewarding!!).  Thanks for posting.  Megan

Beard shadow and way out of control eye liner. But it is 100% honest and me.

Well, I looked, and you look beautiful, I'm ashamed to show my first attempts, I had mascara on the lower sides of my cheekbones, lol
Hugs, Regi👩💕

BTW, I think you had said your wife was supportive? Mine watches, as I do my makeup, and advises and shows me where to correct.
Maybe ask for help?
Hugs, Regi👩💕

She did it for me the first time, as you can certainly see the contrast between the two sets of pics. She was busy unpacking clothes, as we had just moved cross country. I had a little time and my hands and was really missing wearing makeup. Maybe someday i’ll wear it daily, then i’ll get good at it! 😃

Better luck next time. Practice ,practice ,practice. For me the last couple of times, since my beard is not very heavy, I just used a little foundation and setting powder carefully blended and a little lipstick, I thought it looked good!!! Still stuggling with eyes!

Your first try didn't go that bad, and it'll get a lot better. One attempt and you got that good, so more efforts will yield great results. I hope the move works well for you, was it Wisconsin? You're making moves and getting results, and moving forward. Be proud! I think you're doing great!
