I need a lot more practice...

Here's something different I tried tonight with my 78 Piece Coastal Scents Palette. I was bored and lonely...a common scenario for me so I turned to my colossal makeup collection for comfort ;P

I want to start getting into more artistic makeup, hopefully one day do this on other people.
I need a LOT more practice, but I want to post this so I can keep track of my own improvements....so all criticism is welcome, not just the 'constructive' kind...I'm all ears!!!
Above: M.A.C LipGlass in Naked Space (from the Neo Sci Fi collection)

I used mainly used 3 colors from this Coastal Scents Palette...
I used the YELLOW, 3rd one from the top
...and the CORAL and RED, 3rd and 4th from top
...and finally the matte BLACK, right above the blush.
Hope you guys enjoyed this...now butcher me with your honest opinions!!!!!
P.S. I used Coastal Scents brushes too...I forgot to take pictures, but I mainly used the Medium Chisel Fluff Brush. I don't like using my M.A.C brushes to apply bright colors because I'm afraid it'll stain the bristles...LOL.

I like it, Aya-chan, it reminds me of the pearly insides of a seashell, especially against your fair skin :]

Dang, I almost got in to JMraz >< I waited in line at 3pm with a few of my girlfriends to watch. Someone was going to sell me their ticket but backed out last minute so I didn't get in. I heard he was wonderful though.... urgh.
