10 years!?! I remember discovering Sephora after shopping with MAC for a few years and I instantly fell in love! So much selection of products and so many price ranges to work with.

2010 was when I started dating my now husband. I feel like the cats eye liner was making its coming back. I used to be terrified (and terrible!) to try it! After years of practicing, trial and error, I think I may have got it! # anniversary #beautyinsidercommunity

Omg mac was the only place I shopped 10 years ago 😂

[AlexBT]

@AJBlondie I totally remember being terrified of the cat-eye liner too, and now I basically can't leave the house without it!

[RAWRitsRED]

@AJBlondie 

Pretty!  I love that lip color too

[GeorginaBT]

Such a pretty look @AJBlondie! I definitely still rock a cat eye on the reg' 😊

@PrettyPaint  Omg I was also all about the UD naked palette!!!

[lindseyyfaye]

Still a great beginner palette lol @ather

[PrettyPaint]

@ather  Yay! Yeah, I think I always made sure to buy each one on its release day.

[PrettyPaint]

Yay! Congratulations! This is truly such a special and unique community with amazing people.

In terms of eye trends, the first thing that comes to mind is Urban Decay. I was all about the naked palettes and the colored liners. Funny enough, it looks like the original UD Naked Palette was launched 2010, so that makes total sense.

Happy Beautyversary BIC!

I started getting back into makeup after college.   I definitely remember doing a lot of smoky eyes and cat eyes.   Both, which I still rock 😉, but much improved.

[lindseyyfaye]

Wish I could do both of those!😩 @danielledanielle

[CookieGirl1]

10 years?! Wow, I had no idea. 

[lmaster]

@TeamBIC congratulations on 10 years!! 🎉🎊

[greeneyedgirl107]

@TeamBIC Wow!  Ten years!  I remember going on BT in the beginning and the posts were fast and furious.  Now, I feel like we have more connection 🙂

As for Week One of eye trends, I remember rocking the white liner in high school.  I got a lot of great feedback, and it gave me much-needed confidence for using makeup.  Funny that white liner has made a comeback again.  I've been meaning to wear it again for old time's sake - darn this pandemic!
