for people who like a more natural look

it's not that hard, i suppose. find an eyeshadow color similar to your skin. example: mine's a brown/gold color, to match the warm color tone of my skin. this can be pinks/peaches, yellows, or whatever soft colors you like that would blend well with your skin.

i just put a little of that on my lids and make sure it blends.
then i use a black (some people prefer brown) pencil eyeliner and just rim the bottoms a little bit. depending on how natural-looking i want it, i might put a bit on the top rims too.

last, i use black mascara (find the right color/kind [being a voluming, lengthening, etc]) and i coat it on until i'm happy with it. i usually like my mascara thick to bring the look out.

this is really cute, in my opinion, for people with already sharp features. i find when too much makeup is worn (in general, too) on people with already strong features, it's distracting and takes away from the features rather than just bring them out.

i'll have more, eventually~

eyeliner can really change the shape of your eyes, and therefore your look
playing around with it is a lot of fun.

and if you do up your eyes, use a neutral for your lips,
if you do up your lips, go light on the eyes.
doing both just looks overdone.


bright colours are so much fun, too.
i donno why people are so afraid of them.

Stronger blush:

For a flawless porcelian cheek substitute your regular powder blush for some colored lipstick ((Pink that will also vary to red)) Be carefull not to use to deep a red or too bright a red for that will give the appearence of trying to hard.

Strong Curved Face:

Instead of sucking in your cheeks like a freak, take a tone of foundation a tad darker than your regular foundation and get a small to medium amount of this color on your brush, suck your cheeks and put the dark color where your cheeks bend inward. Be carefull not to over use or use to dark of a color or it will give the effect of being dirty. After applying it slightly blend the edges in with your regular foundation, but still leave the hint of the darker color.

i agree.
i'm not one personally for bright colors, but i do LOVE them. i'm darker so my skin likes to play off the colors and shades of things. so when i'm wearing an outfit i think would work with a color, i'll add in a green or blue or purple every now and then. blue pops my eyes out, because of how dark of a brown they are. playing with colors is fun and great, as long as they're not overdone or "tried too hard" kind of look. ( :
your makeup style suits you very well.

I tried buying make-up and my parents flipped on me. They took everything I bought and tossed it into the fireplace.

I am so pissed. >.<
