Lisa Kay (lisakayalicemaria) | 20787 comments Pretty lips, Midu. Are you going to try that lipstick art?


message 339: by Midu (new)

Midu Hadi | 1693 comments the only make up I wear EVER's kohl on my eyes, what about you,LK?


message 340: by Lisa Kay, Moderator (new)

Lisa Kay (lisakayalicemaria) | 20787 comments I used to work for Merle Normans, in a studio/store applying make-up, etc. I'm actually pretty good at it, since I'm an artist. I remember putting make-up on some of my friends in high-school for a fashion show and they were shocked at the "before" and "after" looks. Nevertheless, I always preferred the "natural" look. Now-a-days, I rarely wear make-up. I slathered some lipstick on about a month ago for some reason, I can't remember why. LOL!


message 341: by Lisa Kay, Moderator (new)

Lisa Kay (lisakayalicemaria) | 20787 comments I should start a "hidden talents" thread, shouldn't I? You know, things you are good at that are a surprise to your family and friends.
