I can do most things confidently. I can do an oil change out, change a tyre, bait a hook and bake a cake. What I can not do with complete confidence {anymore} is make-up. Which is or was a pity because I love the look of the winged eye, it’s so very classic having been here in variations through the decades since the 1920’s, I love fashion I’m just not good at it.

The winged eye worn with extra makeup or on its own was what I noticed most about the makeup of women when we went to Paris last year. Most ladies wore ‘the wing’ regardless of their age, and I figure the French know something about style. Sometimes they had lip but most often it appeared it was just the eye.

So yes I’m talking makeup. And I’m talking liquid liner both very rare topics here because its out of my area of but that’s because I don’t know much about either.

I am very mush a lash and brow girl have them styled, and you’re dressed no matter the occasion.

So, I learnt a trick the other day that I had to share, and it’s as simple as dot to dot, and anyone can do dot to dot.

After prepping the eyelid with primer or whatever you are using or not using.

1. Do a series of dots close to the eye line.
2. Join the dots.
3. Add a small wing if you so desire.
4. Finish a coat of mascara on your lashes.

Viola.

Just remember practice makes perfect, or so my boys tell me.
