I very nearly broke dad's when I moved it from tin to rack...it was cool, just hadn't expected to make such a moist cake...not often that happens when I want it to!

ugh, and from just walking around the office, stupid tights are now a lot more laddered, two different places - one up and one down lol
luckily they're nude coloured, and quite a good match so it's not v noticeable. lol

I'm having a good makeup day. I love Barry M. My eyes are oulined in parrot green, with some old acid yellow on the lids and just a touch of white glitter. I love it when my eye make up is very ''me''.

kind o which I was still both young and brave enough for green lipstick. God I loved that stuff. Instead it will be a grown up and prettier peach or corally lipgloss when I go out again...I suppose.

I do love Barry M!

cake all done

I find it hard to tome makeup down sometimes. If you are also making a statement with clothes this can look absolutely terrible: however nice the clothes and makeup are alone.

I felt jeans today meant I could go ''younger'' and less ''pretty pretty'' with colours.

I actually get most compliments when I do subtle makeup. Gold eyeshadows really make my eyes pop...

but I LOVE brights haha. I am nervous of lipsticks because my teeth are vile

I agree, subtle make up is more ''attractive'' pretty, but I just love colour. Its the ''looking good for me'' thing v. looking good for oters. DH used to find my bright makeup really ....difficult to understand. He then started to realise their is sense to it. He reckons turquoise means I'm up for a fight, green means I'm feeling confident and comfortble while ''subtle'' purples and golds mean I'm prepared to make an effort to fit in, be more flexible and communicative.:D

Teeth. My dentist is rally nice about my teeth. They ok, considering the poblems and nutrition issues they've had to cope with. But I have one front tooth that is probably dying. Ironcally not from dietry issues but from impact. Its had a lot of damage, first an accident when I just had it as an adult tooth, then rearing horses/falls on my face...one notable incident when even I was embarrassed to tell the dentistwhat I broke my patched up tooth on....and its starting to fade. Its still ''ok'' but its going to need something soon. I'm really reluctant to veneer, but I think I will have the other stuff (some root canal filling and an attempt to whiten). I'm hoping to keep it as reall as it is for as long as possible.

Uck, I have a veneered front tooth that I loathe, it's not the same colour as the rest of my teeth at all I broke the tooth going face first into a school playground and then had to have a root canal on it a few years ago. Fun eh?

I cannot do makeup. I either look like I'm wearing none, or I look like a clown. Bah.

My make up is pretty much always the same Mineral powder foundation, and gold (sometimes blue, sometimes both) eyeshadow, and mascara. Foundation is Rimmel at the moment and everything else is Korres. Wear lots of lip gloss I've got loads of bits in different colours, especially eyeshadow, but seem to be stuck in a rut!
