Make-up: Round 2

Well...I tried again. See original post here . This time a little more color on the lips and cheeks and a little less eyeliner. I wish there was a better way of capturing the colors on camera! I have been using a smokey black eyeshadow and I think next time I'm going to try it with browns instead of greys and black. I went to Sephora yesterday and picked up a new lip color so I will have to try that next time also. I purchased a Benefit Silky Finish Lipstick in "My Treat" (a bright pink). Anyone have recommendations on long wearing lipstick or tricks to make regular lipstick last longer?

Did my own make-up...

What do you think? I am considering doing my own make-up rather than hiring a make-up artist, but I am worried that I will be too nervous or not have enough time, etc!
