Sure I would love to see how to get that beautiful smokey eye effect you see on all the stars. I think it is so so gorgeous but I can never get it right. Also it would be cool to see how you could do a great pin up girl makeup application or maybe even hair styles.

Smoky eye is one of my favorites to do. The key is to use a fluffy brush to pull the color in and create the smoked out look. I have a blog where I do looks just like that. I do not know if they will let me post my link here, but you can check it out.
Smoky Eyes
Three colors white, gray, and black
Take the gray and put it all over the lid up past the crease with a eye shadow brush. With the same brush take the white color and apply the color under you brow trying to blend it into the gray. Also put the white on the inner corner for highlight. This will open your eyes up! Next take a small dome brush, and dip it into the black shadow. You just want to touch the color to the outer v of you lid. Basically if you stamp it into the crease and then right on the lash line so it creates a v. Now take the first brush you used and dip it in the gray, lightly take the gray over the black and blend it all together keeping the darkest coloring towards the outside of the eye. Now use a liquid or pencil liner and line the inner rims on the bottom and right against the lash line on the top. Now you will smoke the look out more by taking the black shadow on a flat eye liner brush and go back over where you have lined. I do not have enough points to add a picture, but if you follow these steps your eyes will look smoky just like the celebrities.
The great thing you can do it with different colors. I did a purple one on my videojug page. Here is the link if they will let me post it - pages.videojug.com/pages/9186-Eye-Looks-on-a-Budget-
Have fun and let me know how it turns out.

If you can make them into a discussion then there might be many Lotters interested in reading them. You could even look and see if there is an interest suitable for them or whether you could create a new one.
If you place them just as tutorials though they will be deleted because myLot is for discussions.
