I am not embarrassed to admit that I am a very late bloomer when it comes to putting on makeup.  I have attempted to apply makeup on several occasions.  I always end up with only powder and a light stroke of blush on my cheeks. The thought of overdoing it paralyzes my self expression.  I always look forward to that day when I finally am able to sip a huge cup of courage to mix and match colors and shades without feeling silly.

Lately, I visited YouTube and searched through a long list of makeup tutorials for beginners.  I first focused on natural everyday makeup look videos [a handful of them], brainstormed a bit then gave it a go.

My tiny makeup set: Maybelline EverFresh MakeUp [unfortunately is no longer in production *sigh*], Ever Bilena Blush, Nichido Powder, Collection 2000 Color Intense Trio, ArcANail Paris Eyeshadow Palette, Maybelline Define A Lash Waterproof Mascara, GAP Juicy Bites Lip Gloss and AVON Ultra Color Rich Lipstick Sheer in Ice.

The Natural Everyday MakeUp Look.  I know.  I am still on the very safe side.  The result is right next to colorless.  There’s a huge room for improvement and I am so working on that.

About shaping my brow, I am not too confident on doing it on my own.  For the moment, I am leaving it the way it is.  Better to be safe than sorry!

How about you?  Are you at ease when putting on makeup?  How often do you wear them?  Have you attended classes on cosmetics and tutorials on the proper way of applying them?  How huge is your makeup collection?
