Answer 1

I think girls look pretty with no makeup or very natural stuff. I like a little blush, mascara, flavored lip gloss (yummy), and some eyeliner. (and sorry 'bout me not knowing about the glasses thing)

Answer 2

maybe a little eyeliner and some mascara.

but you can't forget the lipgloss!

Answer 3

yeah..be careful of overdoing it..but you look good in your picture.  Don't feel pressured to wear make-up...you should enjoy your natural beauty.

But if you feel that you need to wear make-up..wear powder that matches your complexion and put a light layer on...with some mascara

Answer 4

You're gorgeous, I'd just go with mascara and lip gloss

Answer 5

your skin is almost perfect. just some mascara and lipgloss. you dont want to look overdone

Answer 6

I think your skin looks great without makeup. It's a shame that so many girls feel the need to put on makeup in the morning to make themselves beautiful. Your beautiful and amazing as you are, and natural is the way to go... If you feel you really need the make up, go with a soft foundation, and some mascara! Some soft and natural. Don't go overboard... But like I said, your beautiful as you are! Don't cover up the perfection your face has with a bunch of creams and colors.  

Answer 7

First of all, your skin looks gorgeous! But cocoa butter and other natural moisturizers never go amiss. For makeup, stick with natural colors (especially if you wish to wear eyeshadow). If you intend to wear a foundation at all, pick a color one shade lighter than your skin - it always looks more natural and less plastic-like.

Answer 15

I dont know about evening out skin for african americans but to get rid of circles try applying a lotion with cucumber oils in it or but cucumbers on it that really helps witht he inflamation. and also for makeup you dont really need alot i would wear a little eyeliner and mascara and with your skin you should wear like bright color eyeshadow but just on your lid not on the upper lid that makes it alittle over done.

Answer 16

Maybe just a little foundation and moisturizer. You look really fresh and nice, so you don't need too much done.

Good luck!

Answer 17

Concealer and foundation would be the minimal amount of make-up that you should wear at your age. If your parents are okay with it, you may be able to add some eyeshadow in natural shades and a little gloss.

After cleansing, make sure you put on at least SPF 15 and a moisturizer, not lotion. You don't want to clog your pores. That means I would advise against the cocoa butter unless you're just using that on your hands/body. Look for a moisturizer that is formulated for your skin type -- whether it's oily/blemish prone, dry, normal, or combination (typically oily forehead, nose, and chin; but normal or dry on cheeks).

Apply a concealer only on the dark parts under your eyes. A little bit goes a long way. You don't want to use too much, or it'll look worse. To help apply, look for those Q-tips with the pointed ends. You would look for a color that is just a shade or two lighter than your skin tone. If it's hard to find a color, you can mix it with a liquid foundation that matches your skin tone. When applying, just use a few dots. To blend, pat gently back and forth (don't rub!) with your ring finger (it is your weakest finger).

After that sets, you can apply your foundation. I would go with a mineral powder -- very lightweight, and it will look very natural. The foundation will help even out your skin tone, and well as act at a thin layer of protection against environmental ickies. Color matching is important -- it should not look like you're wearing foundation.

Hope that helps.

Edit: Just to add a little bit -- you're just starting high school, but if you do get worried about those under-eye circles, please make sure you stay hydrated and get a good amount of sleep. High school really shouldn't be the time for all-nighters, so get your 8 hours every night, k? =)

Answer 18

Lip Gloss!

Answer 19

You have a beautiful skin color, and you are very pretty, honestly, I would just wear eyeshadow and lipgloss if I were you! Good luck in high school, and do well!

Answer 20

you look good the way you are but I think a little lip gloss and mascara  would look good on you.
