PEOPLE OF GTI: Do you think dark eye makeup on a woman looks cheap or trashy? Cause that's what my mom told me last night and it made me feel bad.

Honestly, I think it needs to be done in moderation. But otherwise, hottt.
I don't look at a girl with dark eye makeup and instantly think "trashy". I say it's fine.
Depends on the chick AND the application. I've seen some girls pull it off and look amazing.
i'm w/ bizzy. it can be done well... but it can be done REALLY terribly too.
On a trashy chick it looks trashy. But 'nese, you look so wholesome I don't think it could possibly do that.
i agree with bizzy. it's a difficult art to master- i'm not terribly good at dark eyemakeup so i generally avoid it.
See, what I do is use an eyeliner brush to line my eyes with black eyeshadow. I don't think I overdo it, but my mom told me she'd pay me to stop.
She's a geek.
How much would she pay you? And would she pay you on a regular basis, for every day you *don't* wear the eyeliner? Cuz that could be lucrative.
I think she meant she'd pay me in hugs or chocolate milk or something.
Huh. Jubles usually looks classy with her eye makeup. Although sometimes she looks trashy-glam, but I think that's what she's going for then. It really depends on what else you are wearing... if anything when I think of dark eye makeup I think "scene" or "goth," which may also be looks you might want to avoid (or not, depends on your aesthetic), but not "trashy."
I think you could definitely rock the smokey eye. You have a face of adorableness. My Mom harps on me all the time about my looks. I think it's just this horrible thing that Moms do.

Depends on the chick. But I'm a fan kinda.
