My tutor said today she doesnt mind makeup as long as it looks natural?

Question

does anyone have any tips for making it look more natural? and what to do/what not to?

Answer 1

try lighter color for your blusher and try not to use the foundation

what kind of foundation are you using?

some kind-a gorgeous or you rebel lite?

I think using foundation makes you look like you're wearing heavy makeup... so dont use foundation. Using foundation will give you breakouts (acnes) especially if you are fourteen. And if you dont get any breakouts then you wouldnt need to use a concealer at all!

I suggest you dont put anything on your face. (except good skin care like moisturizer) you can have fun with the primer or the foundation or the powder or whatever you want when you are older, but I think you are too young to put them on now

but if you really really really want to cover up your face then use a tinted moisturizer instead of foundation

if you still want to use foundation then use sheer/lightweight one (dont use those full-coverage ones)

Answer 2

wear light colors. and colors that match your skintone not colors like bright red, bright purple, or any bright colors ,.

Answer 3

If your tutor can spot it a mile off then maybe you should tone it down a bit (or punch her in the face, either way...). Your make up routine sounds reasonable to me - and if your own mother thinks it's okay I don't see why your teacher should pester you about it; but if it makes school life that little bit easier then swap the products you have for more toned-down ones.

1) Swap your foundation for a tinted moisturiser - as you have teenage skin you don't want to ruin it, plus it already has a youthful glow. And as the tinted moisturiser is sheer, you won't need to use blush either because your natural blush will shine through.

2) I would suggest that unless you have dark under-eye circles or you have really bad acne, skip the concealer.

3) If the mascara you use is either black or brown, use a clear one instead. It looks cute.

You don't have to use ALL of these tips, just do what you can to get your tutor off your back. And if you want to buy more make up but your pocket money is quite limited (which I doubt, because you buy Lancome and Benefit stuff), try www.eyeslipsface.co.uk - each item is £1.50! Bargain!

Answer 4

use brown eyeliner only on top and dust a taupe eyeshadow onto your lids. line the rims of your eyes with the same shadow. use black mascara and some pretty pink blush. tinted chapstick is also great.

Answer 5

Lip gloss, not lip stick. Lip balm works too. Natural makeup means that you aren't putting anything on your skin that wouldn't happen naturally. Like blue eyeshadow or red lipstick. And no bright pink cheeks.

Depending on your natural skin color, you could mess around with a couple of different makeup options. Try browns, peaches, light pinks.

A little bit of eyeliner and/or mascara is alright too, but stick to neutral colors like brown or even black (but restrict black to very little, don't circle your whole eye).

You could go here for a tutorial video:

It's a very good video, and shows you wonderful examples of

natural makeup.

Answer 6

Just use mineral foundation and mascara as it will make your skin flawless but you won't be able to tell you've got any on.

Answer 7

brown mascara and eyeliner, light brown eyeshadow.  

Answer 8

Don't wear any blue eyeshadow like you young girls seem to love, it looks terrible on everyone no matter what age or skin tone.  Wear browns and peaches instead.

Answer 9

please don't tell me your one of those 13 or 15 year olds who think they should start wearing make up......!!???

Answer 10

Use a tinted moisturiser rather than foundation, try Nivea Young's or Boots No 7.

Try a paler foundation, because your current one may be too dark and look orange. Or just use way less foundation.

Use concealer if only really, really necessary.

Use brown mascara rather than black, no eyeliner.

Use less blusher. Dab your brush in then blow on it, then rub the brush on your wrist. This will get most of the excess off, so you only have a small amount on your cheeks.

My school rules say NO make-up, but everyone wears it and the teachers don't really care :)

Answer 11

i know this is a bit OTT but..

you can buy invisible (or clear?) mascara. So get eyelash curlers and heat them under a hairdryer for a few seconds until they're warm, use them and apply some good quality invisible mascara.

i've never used it but my friend has, so it might look wierd.

Answer 12

can your tutor tell you that?

use make up according to your age and according to the ocasion.

Less when you are young, and more at a night party
