Hi Chris ,
I liked the video clip. I would also like to try out some free brushes first but like the site address form where I could also purchase.
Thanks

emmie, we hire our freelance writers to create their tutorials in either a written or video format, but not both. We don’t have a step-by-step version of the tutorial on hand. I would suggest taking written notes while listening to the tutorial, then you can go back and review them step-by-step. Hope that helps. Thanks for visiting, Aaron - webeditor, LayersMagazine.com

hey ,
wanna congratulate you cuz i believe that what you have done here to make all of us here go mad is that you have greatly showed us the ways to work with the tools we know of but not have though to such degree,
i am a kinda upper intermediate photoshopper, gotta admit that this is one of the coolest tuts ever seen for sure, i am a big fan of Corey and RC cuz they do it the same way, unbelievable creativity ,
keep up the good work, i hope i will also order some of your dvds as well,
thanks

Hello Chris,
Thanks for this video, I was looking for make up application tutorial and I found this on your site. It is great !!!. Infact, I do like to get the step by step writing for this tutorial. Sometime, getting thru the commands is hard on video, if i can get this whole process in writing. It would be great. Also I was trying that free brush website, i could not get it. How can I get it?

hi
I Just wanted to tell you that the video is not working, after a couple of seconds it jumps to the layers video at the end of the tutorials. It’s a shame because I was really interested in knowing about fake lashes…
Cheers!
