So, sometime right before the holidays I developed a little obsession with eye shadow, which is a shame because I have no idea what I am doing when it comes to using it.  The last time I wore eye shadow was during the late eighties (think blue and green) and I even had to have my cousin apply my eye shadow for my wedding day.  See?  I clearly have no business using this stuff.

But.  I love it.  I even have a Pinterest Pin Board devoted to it.  I just love the way it looks (mostly on other people) and it just amazes me how so many colors can blend together to create a beautiful result (mostly on other people).

So for Christmas I bought myself this fun pallet of eye shadow and have been experimenting with blending different colors.  I’m definitely scared of the darker ones, so I’m taking baby steps with the browns and pinks, but someday I will master this.
