I'm a member of the intense eye makeup club. I rarely ever do dark though-it's usually brights. I work in a store though where the lighting is such that I don't look terribly clownish-like stage lighting that doesn't wash you out.
I NEVER wear foundation. I used to use a cream-to-powder one but my skin is good enough that I don't need to wear it and I'd rather look natural than overly perfect. Plus again, the lighting at our store...people say I have perfect skin! (I wish)
I do sometimes sleep in my makeup, but I try not to-I will even put on makeup on my days off when I just stay home so it's motivation to do it at night.
