Answer 6

makeup.

wow, that's a big thing

i don't know where to start.

get Loreal mineral powder foundation,

it blends well and isn't too harsh.

you cant go wrong, it's just a brush and powder.

mascara-(i reccomend Max factor.)

just look in the mirror and brush it from the bottom to the top of your eyelashes. don't go to close to your face at first, cause you don't wanna get it all over your face! if you do, wipe it with a face wipe, - so put foundation on after, instead of wiping it all off with the wipe.

bronzer- works the same as foundation, just apply aronud the cheekbones.

you can get concealer in lipstick form, to cover spots, just rub it in.

and i think lipstick/lipgloss speaks for itself.

i hope that helped !

Answer 7

heres what i do :]

Eyeliner:

Brown eyeliner: Goes good with any eyeshadow colors, but grey, blue, and black.

Black: Goes good with any color but browns!

To apply eyeliner:

make a thin/thick line, depending on the look you want.

Thin for sophisticated.

Thick for a smokey, cool look.

Try your best, it's hard sometimes!

Eyeshadow:

Apply evenly on your EYELID.

Apply a lot to keep it on.

Mascara:

Start at the beginning root of your eyelashes, and blend outward.

Coats: Each time you dip the mascara inside is A coat.

The more mascara, the more effect you get.

Lipstick/gloss

Liner: Get a nude liner that matches your skin.

Or basically anything thats not too weird.

Hold it up to your lips, IF you want a lipliner.

Avoid: Dark purples, reds, etc. if youre eyemakeup is dark.

Clears, light pinks, etc: Go with everything.

Answer 10

Moisturize your face, especially people with dry skin.

Apply foundation that matches your natural skin tone for a smooth skin effect.

Apply powder for that flawless look to your face and matte down any shiny areas on your face. Gently tap the powder pad on the back of your hand before applying it on the face to shake off any excess powder.

Blush adds color and freshens up your face instantly. See 'Applying Blush' for more details.

Pluck your eyebrows, apply eye shadow, eyeliner and mascara and do eye makeup very very carefully. If you are not confident, leave this part out completely.

Classic, tried and tested natural/neutral color combinations are best for eyes, unless you are quite an expert.

Define the lips using the lip liner and fill up the lip color using the brush.

You may use lip-gloss too for a sexier look.

A tinge of shine powder can instantly transform you for that evening party.

It is always good to be aware of the latest trends and fashions in makeup and being innovative and creative to have a distinctive style of your own helps too.
