Just winging it

I think if they were going to make a movie about my life I think maybe that's what it should be call - Just winging it. ( I also think they should get Margot Robbie to play me. )

This isn't me. This is Margot Robbie. Why are you laughing?

I didn't realise how much I do just wing it until this week when I was co presenting a session for teachers and the co presenter was like really organised and we had a meeting to discuss what we would do. I had planned to think about it 5 minutes before and hope for the best. She was great. Super organised. The Ying to my Yang.

This weeks Youtube video is about liquid eyeliner- because who doesn't like liquid eyeliner. But who the bloody hell can put on liquid eyeliner? And then when you can put it on - how do you get the wingey thing?

So on a quiet Saturday night I decided to film you a tutorial. It was a disaster. I filmed it with the radio on so I couldn't use the audio, I made mistakes, I finished the makeup- hated it- took it off- got eye make up remover in my eyes- got black shit everywhere including the back of my arm. And the table. And the floor. And on the dog.

When I finally finished the tutorial I was happy. Then when I watched it back today- mmm not so happy. My wing is not winged enough. But that is the trick when you are older. Your eye cannot handle a big wing. It takes over your face. So it is more of a delicate flick. 

So have a look, have a practice because soon we are going to be doing the night time look that everyone wants..... Yep - we are going to learn how to do Adele's makeup. You will never say hello the same way again.

So have a look- and have a laugh. Because in the end I was just winging it. ( see what I did there? )
