51chNds1zmL._SS500_ Of all makeup we put on our face, eye makeup is the most exciting thing to do. The vast array of colors is so intriguing and we can create any look if we know what colors to combine and where to put the products. So, when I came across “Eye Candy: 55 Easy Makeup Looks for Glam Lids and Luscious Lashes”, I knew I had to have this. I mean, look at the cover! It does look glam and yummy.

So I flipped thru the book and boy was I grinning! I did not laugh at the book, but seriously, I was like ‘Is this a compilation of our FOTDs?’

Look, FOTDs are done by us, some “bencong makeup” who have fun playing around with colors and have no problems making mistakes. Of course, we’re not professionals and never got a diploma in makeup (with some exceptions to marvelous members/makeup artists). But when you have to shell out $15 for a makeup book (thank God it’s not $30; better yet, Amazon has it for $10), sure you want something that is really an eye candy.

Granted, this book is intended for teenage girls, so I won’t blame Linda Mason for using hot pinks, neon yellows, bright purples all combined. But poor blending job? Some are not even blended at all. Sure, it’s personal taste, but still… I’m not into dirty look.
