Can Makeup Application Really be Perfect?

Hey Glamour Dolls,

While I was doing my makeup yesterday, I thought about all of the gripes that I have with perfecting my makeup routine. Doesn't it always seem like it's something to work on? Something to perfect?

When I look at the work of other makeup artists, celebrity makeup artists, You Tube gurus and fellow bloggers- I think, "wow, their makeup looks perfect!" I never feel that way about my makeup. The funny thing is, when I have clients I hear others say that the client looks really well but I can't seem to duplicate the same thing on myself... at least I don't think so.

I'll share my list of makeup woes that I'm perfecting and feel free to share yours, if you have any!

I'm perfecting my:

False eyelash application

Applying eyeliner with a steady hand so that it doesn't look crooked

Creating a more polished brow


What are you pefecting?

Hey Ms. Viva Glam, yes I feel the same way all the time I feel like im always trying to perfect my foundation routine, putting on strip and individual eyelashes I am getting better at it but it can be very frustrating, and a lastly believe or not my blush and contour application. So im practicing hoping to perfect my applications with these products.
Wow! Your list looks just like mine. I will just need to add perfecting nail polish application.

Cocoa: I would never know you felt that way. You're one of the ones that I'm always "wowed" at when it comes to makeup. I know-strip lashes are frustrating at times, that's why I haven't even tried individuals. I'm still working on contouring-I usually end up looking to dark when I contour...we'll get the hang of it though :)

@ Girl Rates World: We both feel the same. I do admire your eyeliner application... it's always straight and perfect.

As you know, my hang-up is contouring. I also want to learn how to apply lashes.
