OMG I'm so glad you posted this thread!! I went to MAC for a makeup trial and had her do my eyes three times and was never thrilled with it. I also had hooker eyeliner! I told her it was for a beach wedding and didn't see the hooker eyeliner connection!
Amanda, those tips are much appreciated! She had me using a light shimmery gold on the lids, darker orangey shimmery gold in the outside corners, and a deep shimmery pink in the crease. I felt really overdone and shimmery! It wasn't terrible but didn't scream beach to me. I looked through my old MAC stuff and found a soft pink - no shimmer - that I think i'll go with. I have a black liner pencil, waterproof black mascara, pink blush, and a light pink gloss.
