lorelei's Picture Hi, I'm Lorelei. I live with my mother, my older sister and my grandmother.
I travel a lot but I'm never a tourist. ;) My mother owns property all over the country and I'm extremely lucky to feel at home in so many different places. It's a lot of fun and I get to see a lot of things and meet a lot of people.
Shopping always seems to be better away from home too.
I'm very fashion-minded and stylish, spontaneous and energetic, dorky and giggly. I enjoy having a good time. Almost too much. I party every chance I get. I do drink but I do so responsibly and you should too.
I'm very young but the year 2003 caused me to learn more about who I am than some people get to learn about themselves in an entire lifetime. Ever since I've made it a point to share what I've learned with everyone possible. Ask and I'll do my best to answer.

Whether or not you found my advice useful, a rating is appreciated, good or bad. Let me know how I can improve.

I want to start wearing eye-liner and I don't know exactly where on my eye I put it - and what are the good brands. Pencil/Liquid? I'll rate you!

First of all, you don't really need to use an expensive brand. NYC eyeliner or Wet 'N Wild is about a dollar and you can find it at Target or your local drug store.
I suggest using a pencil on your lower eyelid, below the lashes and a liquid on your upper lid.
The tip to keeping pencil eyeliner on all day is to hold the pencil tip over a match or lighter til it starts to melt. Give it a few seconds to cool. It should be cool enough to comfortably touch, but still kind of warm and soft.
Tug gently down on your lower eyelid, and apply the pencil to your lash line and stroke outward towards the edge of your eye until you've got the definition you want.
For your upper eyelid, close your eye and hold your eyelid slightly taut. (just use your finger to pull it a little to the side, so the eyeliner is easy to apply) Use a mirror and a very steady hand to apply the eyeliner RIGHT at the lash line.
Don't be too scared about applying eyeliner, because it shouldn't irritate your eyes too much if you mess up but still be a bit careful.
Good luck!
