Make-up advice! very much needed.?

i dont really like wearing make up that shows for school, i want something neutral that looks very natural, but i dont know what to do, or what colors.. help!Make-up advice! very much needed.?
A simple way to put this...you can wear makeup without smothering it all over you to look fake. For an easy, DIY natural makeup routine, just keep reading. If you want to keep it simple, just buy some concealer for blemishes. Make sure it's in your correct skin tone. Ask a friend or relative for the best tint if you cant choose.


If you wanna go a little higher up, get some base and eyeshadow to go along with that. To keep it natural, I use the Revlon Colorstay mineral foundation. For the eyeshadow, get some colors that best accent your skin tone. Usually its colors like brown, pink, and tan.


If you want more makeup to look natural, yet glamorous, get some mascara and/or eyeliner with the rest of the stuff. For the mascara, you can lightly brush it on, so it doesn't get too thick and clumpy. Depending on the size and shape of your eyes, eyeliner can help bring out natural effects on your face. To look more natural, I use it on the outer bottom part of the line of my eye only.Make-up advice! very much needed.?
1] groom brows - pluck, or fill in, or both, as necessary. Brows frame the eyes!


2] mascara - wear brown, black brown, or black, depending on color of your hair and brows - whichever is darker.


3] cheeks- blusher or bronzer, in a pink, peach, or coral, depending on your coloring.


4] lips - lip gloss or color in pink, peach, or coral, depending on coloring.


PRACTICE AT HOME FIRST!


5] if you want to wear eyeliner - match to mascara color for everyday. Start with a pencil[ crayon ] one, like Cover Girl, L'oreal, Physician's Formula. Use a very thin line, along the lashline ONLY.


For club/dance/party, try emerald green, sapphire blue, or bright purple!


6] shadows - start with neutrals [ grays or browns ], then try duos or trios of greens, blues, aquas, purples.
To enhance your natural beauty the rule of thumb is: LESS IS MORE.





1st step: if you dont need to wear foundation, dont wear it. But, if you want to hide any small blemishes, concealer is the way to go. However, if you feel you need a little coverage, try mineral makeup (you can find these at walmart, walgreens, and for the more pricer ones, nordstrom/sephora).





2nd: eyeshadow in any neutral shades like bone, bisque, or ivory in matte/shimmer are good all over colors for your lid . If you want to darken your crease try light browns.





3rd: because you want to create a natural look, only line your upper lid with brown/dark brown. line it as close to your lashline as possible and smudge it with a q-tip for a softer look.





4th: time to blush, any color you want really, just dont over do this step or else you will look like a clown. if you decide to use bronzer do it with a light hand. I recommend Light Flush from Mac.





5th: lipgloss! Anything in the sheer is good for a natural look. stay away from dark color of course. Try Benefit thegloss in chaperone. its my favorite.





and that's it! have fun with it.
If u want to keep it simple and fresh.... get a nice black/brown mascara (if u live in the states, MAX FACTOR 1000 calories... AMAZING!!).... get a eye lash curler (put a blow dryer to it for a second or two.. not too long, dont want to burn ur eye lids off).... Curl ur lashes, apply mascara..... curl again if needed!! thats all ya need!!


if u want alil more sparkle... get a really light shimmer brown/gold transparent eyeshadow (0o0o even a fun purple or orange for summer).. just dust it lightly over ur eyelids and right underneath ur brow line!!!!! If u shop at the Body Shop, they have a nice set of 4 shimmer colors!!
try trublend... it is mineral make up and u barely see it but it covers up blemishes. try colors that closely m atch ur skin tone. try putting a lil on the top of ur hand to see how it will blend in. hope this helps :)
id escentials Bare minerals has natural looking make up.


look it up!
To get the best colors, we would need to know what are your skin tones, but neutral colors, try brown, bronze
just wear base makeup...
