Eyeshadow

Oww. My eyes hurt. I tried using eyeshadow today, my 3rd time ever. Fail, but not as big of a fail as other times. Now I really regret buying eyeshadow and brushes when I don't know how to use them properly. I keep getting particles everywhere and into my eyes. I constantly look like either a panda, raccoon, or just have a black eye. Gosh, none of the other colors really show up well, just the black. I should just stick to eyeliner and blush. Plus when I use eyeliner on the waterline, my eyes water and I'm using pencil, so it isn't waterproof so it just runs. That's why I just put it on the top lid now because it's really annoying. I wonder how girls put makeup on so pro like. Maybe because they started doing this stuff since like middle school and I'm just starting now in college. I still believe you shouldn't wear a lot of makeup, but I like how eyeliner darkens my eyes so I look more alert rather than sleepy eyed. And a little blush (even though my face usually gets easily flushed) adds a warm glow to your face.
