I've been learning a lot from you ladies! This is the first time I've actually been taking the time to really LEARN about makeup. I've always just...winged it. Up until a month ago. Now I'm really learning about techniques, products and styles.

Anyway...this is my work today. Suggestions for improvements?

Any recommendations on how to get rid my bags? A lot of creams out there don't work! What works for you?

For me watching how much sodium I consume as it immediately shows up in my eye area. As far as creams go I haven't really been exclusive to one particular cream though I have been loving grapeseed oil applied at night for my eye area.

Hi Shannon. An old tip models used to use was preperation H under the eyes to hide bags. Prep H shrinks the tissue and makes your bags a lot less noticeable. Its good for a quick fix. A good mosturizer or tightening serum should help with long term results. I hope you find something that works.  :)

Your makeup is gorgeous! Love the lippie on you...N Shelley is right high sodium levels increase under eye bags...Cut down your salt intake including processed foods as they have a high content of sodium...you can also try placing a cold steel spoon under the eyes for a few minutes to reduce them! a good eye cream with retinol will moisturise the area...

I think your makeup looks great, especially the lipstick. For undereye bags, Wayne Goss, a great mua suggests lightening UNDER the bag because it's the shadow from the bag that's causing the problem. Hope this helps.

I know staying hydrated and having a low sodium diet helps..also tea bags and cucumbers.
