EOTN: Purple Night and Before and After Pictures

Ok, first of all... I hate braces even though I only have the bottoms for now. My smile is now lopsided because of it. I can't flaunt my big-ass, cheesy smile anymore. So pardon the pouting pictures.

Anyway, here is my EOTN. It was inspired by Elizabeth when I saw the picture with the purple liner. Also, I wanted to play with my new indigo shadow and my purples. Personally, I would not wear this during daytime unless I have all the time in the world. Maybe when I go clubbing since it's more of a nighttime look too, at least for me. I wear very minimal makeup sometimes even none at all during the day. But, I really need to practice more because it took forever blending and getting the colors right, and I couldn't get my eyes to even out. What a pain. Actually, I started with NOT knowing what to do, and it turned out pretty good :) IMO.

On a side note... I love how my skin looks like in pictures now. I really cleared up on my cheeks!! Geez louise, I thought I won't be able to get rid of my acne anymore. But thanks to a strict daily skin regimen and watching what I put on my face... it has improved!! I still have some scarring but they're almost gone though. Weee!

I can't believe I'm posting this:

BEFORE (Halloween 2007)

Ugggggggggh!!! Mind you, this was WITH powder on, but no concealer. Nasty scarring on the left cheek (your right). On the previous picture, I just have EDM on, no concealer too. Anyway, I was so annoyed with my cheeks because I got those pimples after using BE and it would NOT go away. I seriously wanted to rip my face off. hahaha. It was weird cuz my cheeks were the most unlikely place I would get pimples, and the only new thing I was using at the time of my crazy breakout session was BE. I wouldn't even touch or pick on them like other people would do, yet it left a scar. And, I'll always get pimples on or RIGHT next to where I just had it. Now it's barely there! You should've seen it back in summer... HORRIBLE! By the way scarzone works!

Yea I know... I have a big, cheesy smile. Just looking at the picture made me realized how my eye makeup REALLY sucked that night. heehee

Since we're on the topic of before and after pictures, here are a few more.

My senior portrait. Yep, I once had long hair. I want it back at least that long but I keep cutting it! But yea, I had the typical asian hair with the highlights and stuff.

And my favorite....

LMAO. I was 10 years old (I think), in this picture. OK seriously, braces is not even an option here (ok you guys can stop laughing now). Argh.. now I'm back on it again since I never wore my retainers. But as much as I hate braces, I'm forever grateful for it. haha.
