  1. use nivea foundation (beige color which suits my skin) and compact powder of same color. thats enough. little lipstick and eye shadow. eye liner. thats enough


  2. Draw the attention away from your nose by playing up your eyes or your lips. Using concealer on your nose will also help take the focus away. I recommend anything made by MAC. I love and trust every one of their products. Almost all my makeup is MAC and it all works beautifully :D

  3. big nosee?

    draw the attention AWAY from the nose

    lols

    plAStic surgery ?

  4. I have been using Rimmel Lasting Finish for a few months now and LOVEEEEE it! Normally I have to change makeup because it either breaks me out or dries out my skin but this has done a WONDERFUL job!!!! It doesn't come off, I dust on a little bit of loose power and its set for all day. I have pretty light skin and I use 100 Ivory, its wonderful!  

  5. You could try a green, charcoal, or maybe even black color eyeliner to make your eyes big to draw attention away from your nose. Mascara that makes your eyelashes look thick and long is good too.

    If in the mood for eyeshadow, you could always put on fun colors or just go with a neutral shade (one that matches your skin tone) that has a bit of shimmer.

    Get a peachy or sorta pinkish shade of lip gloss that will make your lips look nice and glossy. I'm pretty sure it'll draw attention away from your nose.

    Maybe even a small amount of blush to highlight your cheekbones? But when i say small, i mean SMALL.

    No makeup give your nose wayyyy too much attention.  

  6. EYES-

    In order to get green eyes to pop, you should try wearing various purple shades. The contrast in color to your eyes will make them seem more dramatic. If you want your eyes to stand out but look more natural, you may want to try warmer mocha brown shades or warm colors with slight orange undertones. Basic eyeshadow colors for green eyes would be earth tones with slight hints of gold, taupe colors, mocha browns, and lavender-purple shades. feel free to experiment with these colors so you can find the perfect one for your eyes. Great brands of fun colors are hard candy, sugar, clinique, smashb ox, and NARS.  These all can be found at a department store, cosmetic market, or sephora.

    Eyeliner/Mascara

    If you want something more dramatic try a nice grey, brown, or black eyeliner...loreal pencil perfect makes great cheap eyeliner....

    never forget to wear mascara...i would try for your big green eyes-

    maybelline x*x Curl

    Remember-

    you should have fun with your eyeshadow and it shouldn't be a bothersome process. A general rule of thumb with eyeshadow is to first compliment your eye color and then it shouldn't contrast your clothing. In other words, don't wear a purple based eyeshadow on your blue eyes while you are wearing a coral toned shirt. You should try to keep your clothing and eyeshadow in the same or color family, or at least a complimentary family. And finally, remember that sometimes less is more. Don't add 5 layers of green eyeshadow on your brown eyes, thinking that it will make them look fabulous. Often times a slight hint of color is all your eyes need to really pop and look mesmerizing.

    LIPS-

    If you have big plump lips place them up...try a nice deep pink or light orange color.....covergirl makes fun lip colors-found at any department store...

    SKIN-

    If you have senstive skin i would reccomned lancome or clinique foundation-foundation is made for a more covergage so if thats what your looking for then use foundation; you always want to put powder over your foundation to set the look and keep it in place-if you want less coverage then just use powder-if your skin isnt senstive then i would use loreal foundation/and/or powder from any drugstore...

    I always suggest if you have fair skin to use a nice light pink blush and some bronzer applied and your forehead and above your cheeks and on your neckline.....you can use any brand of bronzer and blush

    although clinique and lancome makes wonderful colors...


  7. First off I bet you think your nose is bigger then it really is..We can be so hard on ourselves, But to answer your question try Bare Minerals they have a great natural make-up, you don't feel like your wearing anything on your face.

  8. L'OREAL paris true match powder

  9. If you do not have any problems with blemishes , face moisturizer followed by pressed powder.

    Pressed powder (Loreal True Match )

    Then if you want , blusher (Bourjois in Rose De Jasper at Ulta  )

    Black Brown mascara- Loreal Volumious Mascara (Naturale)

    Lip gloss  

  10. Bare Essenctuals--its great makeup even though its a it pricey

    Powder foundation--comes in many colors and is very good for pale skin. It will even out your skin tone and make it look more natural ($20)

    Mineral veil--Not necessary but very good because it seals the makeup ($15-$20)

    Blush--get pinky colors so that your face doesnt look dirty with blush ($15-$20)

    Things to get at Target or Rite aid

    Eyeshadow--Get light neutral colors like very light browns. If you have dark circles stay away from smoky grays. If you wanna go with color try lavender (good on everyone), or a pale green and blue.

    When you apply this you should put a light color below your eyebrow (like a light shimmery pink even if you dont like it you cant see the pink in it) then the neutral color to your lid and then smudge the color one really REALLY close to your eyeline RIGHT above your lashes

    Eyeliner--liquid black or brown on your top lash like where your color shadow is

    Pencil or crayon right on your lower lid (if you nearly coloring your actual eye (not skin at all) then your doing it right

    Lips: Use vaseline and a light pink gloss--for nighttime a gentle plum color to line your lips then rub together

    The key is to look super natural. Less is more (seriously)

  11. wear a dark deep purple to contrast your eyes with a shimery purple under your brow and on the inner lid of your eye, it makes the colors of your eyes pop,

    use just a neutral colored gloss for your lips,

    there are tips for shading your face in a way that minimizes or maximizes your features by applying one shadelighter thatn your skin, and one shade darker then your skin in certain places around your nose http://store.bareescentuals.com/bareMine... try this it works good

    try these in colors devotion and hyacynth for your eyeshttp://store.bareescentuals.com/bareMine...

    also try the foundation, its fantastichttp://store.bareescentuals.com/bareMine...

    and blush, try this one for your fair skinhttp://store.bareescentuals.com/on/deman...
