Shelli Stevens

So last night I got on a total makeup trip. I’m not sure what inspired it. But all of a sudden I wanted to learn to do eyeshadow. Like beyond the ‘grab brush, smear on color’. So I figured I’d start with the shades I already had and explore. Have fun with some colors that I’ve never/rarely used.

Keep in mind I’m a novice. But here’s kind of what I came up with…

First we have Shelli (yes I’ve switched to third person) going retro with the bold gold/orange shade for a perhaps a night out on the town. Not so sure I can pull this off….

Next we have this green/orange type combo

And probably here’s my favorite of the night, a pink and brown combo…

and the final shot (a full face so you can see my new shorter hair–and please forgive the serious expression and myspace style shot!)

Saturday is shopping day for San Francisco, Lacy and I are going. I may find some eyeshadow shades that work and maybe get some more tips. I do like ‘basic’ makeup right now, but I’m kind of itching to learn more. Then we’re doing the band at the bar thing. Needless to say, I’m so excited for the weekend.

But first…tomorrow and Thomas the Train. I can do this. I think I can…I think I can…
