Answer 1

first of all, never refer to yourself as "chinky." that is a taboo term. you're racially insulting yourself. if you're Chinese, just say "I'm of Chinese descent."

instead of trying to hide a feature you don't like (your nose), bring attention to your better features. have you forgotten about those amazing cheekbones? what about your full, pouty lips?

let's think positive.

FACE:

you have few blemishes, so skip foundation. use concealer on any imperfections. luckily you have no dark circles. set everything with pressed powder to set your makeup and control shine.

CHEEKS:

blend a cream bronzer from your temples, down to just below your cheekbones. you can also put a bit on the bridge of your nose and on your chin. *HINT*: one way to make your nose appear smaller is to blend a bit of bronzer onto the sides of your nose. (just a bit; if this technique is mastered, no one will be able to tell.)

blend a powder coral-pinky blush onto the apples of your cheeks.

take a light, shimmery eye shadow (like ivory) and sweep it right on your cheekbone for ultimate definition.

EYES:

lining your entire eye can make a smaller eye look closed in. instead, line only your top lashes in black as close to the lashes as possible. this creates a slightly darkened lashline, giving the appearance of full lashes.

blend a not-too-light shadow (ivory, light gold) from your lashline to your browbone. take a medium-colored shadow (bronze, gray) and blend it not to your natural crease but to where your eyeball starts sinking in. (you can feel it with your brush when you do this). then using an eyeliner brush, blend a darker shadow (dark brown) right on top of the eyeliner and into the outer corner of where your eyeball starts sinking in. be sure to blend it all well.

pump a lash curler at the base of your lashes and walk it up your lashes. finish with one to two coats of black mascara.

LIPS:

use fun, bright colors of lip gloss. your lips are perfect for both lighter and darker colors. think red, pink, mauve, and wine colors.

remember to focus on one feature at a time. if your playing up your eyes with a dramatic look, neutral, lighter lip and cheek colors are best. if you want a red lip, just liner, mascara, and a light shadow will do the trick on your eyes.

Answer 2

okay, you should get a foundation or tinted moisturizer that fits your skin tone. also, you should get a good mascara. lashes make your eyes look bigger and wider and bring attention to them. :) go to your local Sephora or Ulta and get some fun eyeshadow colors. The people who work there can help you. good luck. :)

Hello, Honestly I have tried so many types and brands of makeup. I have sensitive skin, prone to break outs. The best makeup is mineral makeup, and throughout trails of different brands, I found this one!! Beautiful Diva Makeup Collection, and it is as expensive as other mineral makeups, plus it gives better converage, they also have a pressed mineral makeup that is baked!! I have tried bare minerals and essential minerls products and although they are great for your skin, they dont give full coverage to those with any blemishes, small or severe. This company has great products for your skin and full coverage for those of us with flaws too. I left a little more information about the company and their products below. Good Luck, and click on the link below to find out more and shop today!!

Beautiful Diva

Makeup Collection

UNEARTH THE SECRET TO BEAUTIFUL SKIN

Mineral Makeup has never been this good! Beautiful Diva’s Makeup Collection is sourced from nature and fused with science to protect, correct and beautify skin without irritation.

Beautiful Diva provides you with a natural alternative to traditional cosmetics while providing you with a high quality, animal conscious product.

• No animal derived ingredients except beeswax and bee pollen

• No animal testing

• No genetically modified ingredients

• Use of only FDA approved mineral and mineral-based ingredients

Mineral makeup is the most natural form of makeup available on the market today. A traditional pressed or liquid foundation has to have ester added to the pigment. This product formulation is NOT healthy for your face especially for persons with sensitive skin, those who are acne-prone or have other skin disorders. As you may know, typical liquid foundation, in the majority of cases, is comendogenic (tending to produce or aggravate acne) clogs your pores and has a short shelf-life (should be replaced every 3 to 6 months.) The shelf – life of most traditional foundation is approximately 6 months. Loose Mineral makeup will remain unspoiled for years without any type of preservatives.

Beautiful Diva Mineral makeup is non-comedogenic, non-irritating, and provides your skin natural protection against harmful ultra-violet sunrays. You will never have that “heavy, cakey” feeling you get with traditional makeup.

Who is Beautiful Diva?

Beautiful Diva was founded by Myra Roldan, a mom to three beautiful girls. After working for several commercial cosmetic lines, she noticed the cosmetic selection offered to women of ethnic backgrounds, women with skin conditions or to those undergoing medical treatment was scarce. She made it her mission to develop a mineral makeup line that would be safe for all women with skin sensitivities, especially those undergoing chemotherapy and radiation therapy. She wanted a product that was safe for her own daughters when they became old enough to use makeup. Beautiful Diva is not a single woman, but every woman – because we are all beautiful.

Answer 4

eyeliner

mascara

eye shadow

Answer 5

Hmmmmmm. Maybe add some black eye-liner to your eyes and a bit of mascara to make them look bigger. Apply on lip-gloss and tha'll do - too much make-up is not good.  

Answer 6

If you have green or blue eyes, use a smokey grey eye shadow along with black eyeliner on your bottom lid only and lash enhancing black or gray mascara on your top and bottom lashes. The appearance of black contouring with the green or blue of your eyes will make your eyes pop and look larger.

    If you have brown eyes use a brighter or pastel eyeshadow with black mascara and eyeliner on top and bottom.

    Stay away from very light or skin colored eye shadows as they may make your eyes look smaller.

    Hope this helps!

Answer 7

Im not an expert on makeup or anything, but what would help is that you can look up "makeup routine" or "how to put on makeup" on youtube and watch the videos, which would probaly be alot easier seeing someone do it step by step, rather then having someone try to explain it in a message
