Just got back from my MAC make-up trial! What fun! I had brought in tons of photos for inspiration -- all with eyeliner only on the eyes (which I posted earlier) ... turns out, I may be a fan of the look on others but definitely *not* on me! We ended doing the eyes over with a smokier look which I liked a lot more ... it's a lot closer to my everyday look and didn't make me feel weird! I also really loved the false eyelashes but looking at photos now, I'm starting to think they're a little tooooo long?
Honest opinions, anyone???
ahhh, P.S. Also note the change in hair color ... some of you had asked to see my new brunette shade a few months ago. Better late than never, right? I do miss being blonde but I certainly don't miss the maintenance and money it took! ;o)
Update:
Thanks so much for the feedback! I'm glad I wasn't the only one with hesitation about the faux lashes ... I'm going to schedule another session and try my natural lashes vs. another (more natural-looking) set of falsies. :o)





















I love the eyelashes, I actually think you just might need more of the longer ones to get a better effect.
ReplyDeleteOMG! You look gorgeous! And I think the eyelashes look great!
ReplyDeleteThere are false eyelashes that look a lot more natural than those. They seem sort of "chunky"...Otherwise, I like it :)
ReplyDeleteI adore everything about the look except the lashes. They don't seem in keeping with the classic, Audrey look you've written about wanting...
ReplyDeleteI agree, the lashes seem a bit chunky but the overall look is beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI think maybe the lashes are too spaced out? I would go with something a little more natural. MAC has a ton of sets to choose from. I have one, although I have no idea what it is....
ReplyDeleteWow you look gorgeous!! I agree that the lashes might be too chunky and spaced out, but nevertheless that is some of the best bridal makeup I have ever seen!
ReplyDeleteYou look very classy and lovely! I agree the lashes are too long. Your brown eyes are beautiful, you won't need those long lashes for photos.
ReplyDeleteI miss being blonde but not the money or maintenance it takes too!
ReplyDeleteYour makeup looks great... I agree with those above that you should try for some different falsies that aren't grouped together like that.
You look great as a brunette, and the eye lashes? Perfect!
ReplyDeleteYou look beautiful. Very classic! The long lashes will look great in your photos. I think they're fine.
ReplyDeleteHa ha ha! I was also a blonde for a while - and the maintenence and $$ was ridiculous!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE the look! And I like the eyelashes. Maybe some not as clumpy, but remember, most pics aren't going to be so close up.
I'm also wanting to wear false lashes. Did you just set up an apppointment at the MAC store/counter?
you look pretty but i think the lashes are too long! they take away from an otherwise natural look.
ReplyDeleteSarah, you're gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteI had my eyelashes done for my wedding, and they stayed all through my honeymoon. It made *such* a difference in my photos, I can't even tell you. You won't regret it.
I like the lashes, they will photograph beautifully.

ReplyDeleteI do know that lashes and cosmetics has a new line of Sticky Band Lashes that contour to your eye so they look fab!! They have a special glue so the lashes stay on for weeks. I love it!
