Let's see if I can get these photos to appear!

Here is before, clean face with just moisturizer....

And after.... I am trying out my first samples of Glissade in 1C1L along with pure hue in Lucky, my free sample of Fiona as highlight shade and a random black shadow in outer V and crease. I used black gel liner and black mascara from various makers. I tried out my free sample of pinnafore swiped very lightly on my lips. These before and afters were taken in the same natural sunlight... I think the Lucky looks way more vibrant in person, what a pretty Shade!

Wow! You have such gorgeous eyes! And your make-up in the After really makes them stand out! How beautiful!

Your skin is really pretty, too -- almost translucent.

Thanks for sharing your pix!

Thanks Hennagirl! Jeez these pics are huge lol, I need to learn how to resize them before posting them! I love that I found aromaleigh.

Your before and afters are gorgeous! I love your eyes, so pretty and a great job with application!

Yes, very cool eyes you have, Nina. That's the first thing I noticed. I think you have your perfect foundation match, Lucky totally matches your eyes and the Pinnafore is made for your lips! You're very pretty and the makeup application is flawless. Great mysterious Mona Lisa smile!

What a beauty!

ROCKIN the fresh face in the "before" and
SMOLDERIN in the green in the after!

Looks like you've found some perfect shades!

Those colors look great on you! You also lovely coloring yourself (hair color, eye color, etc.!)

Lucky is one of my favorites, it is such a gorgeous color! I don't wear it often since it's too bold for work, but it's a lovely "sexy date night" shade! (Esp since my husband loves it when I wear blue-green eyeshadows!)

If you like Lucky, also consider sampling Rocks endlesssea (which is a similar blue-green color but is darker and less shimmery -- a good crease shade), and Pure Hue Dew (which is also similar to Lucky but lighter)!

Gorgeous! You have an amazing eye color

You did a great job!

awwww thanks everyone! I really think i hit the nail on the head with my foundation color choice, the color comparison chart to BE really helped. Glissade is the best mineral powder I have ever used- will be purchasing a full size soon, along with a ton more eyeshadow samples.

Yes, I agree with everyone... beautiful eyes! I especially love how you did your eyes in the 'after' shots. I've got to try that color combo. I have Lucky and I don't think I've worn it yet.

Thanks for posting, Nina!

Fantastic in both the before and after! It is so nice to see before and after pics of people. The eyeshadow colors on you look wonderful.

Very nice!!

And I love the wall color in the background!!

You're so pretty! I love Lucky with your beautiful eyes. And your hair is gorgeous, I love the golden honey tones.

Very pretty!!! I just love the green eyes!!! Beautiful! Thanks so much for posting...looking forward to more!!!

Thanks for all the responses! Cinseven, that color in the background is called flagstaff if I remember correctly. I was given a framed print called "Fall Faeries" as a housewarming present and I kind of chose the colors for the room around the picture. So I've got an autumn leaves thing going now. Thanks!

so pretty!! love your eyes.
