Title: How is my make up?
Post by: Gracie Faise on October 27, 2008, 10:08:52 PM
Hey everyone, I was just testing out the make up mom bought me before actually going out in public. What do you think? Any good? Or clown mask?

(https://www.susans.org/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fimg.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fv78%2Fsorrow%2Fpictures%2520of%2520me%2Fhair_test01.jpg&hash=c9fafa0876d14a9f072817f25e2ac441f8fa46a1)

Looks good to me.  I might choose a different shade of lipstick but I'm kinda old and conservative.  It's age appropriate for you.  The real test is can you apply it while driving and talking on the phone at the same time.  :D

Very nice!  I like the jewel tones you chose. :)  It's hard to tell in these pictures if any of it is too thick or something like that, but the colors look great.

Sorry Love, but by smile I mean to show a bit of the pearl whites.  And you do seem to be a little solemn.  You are a pretty woman, be proud of that.

As the saying goes 'Smile.  It makes people wonder what you're up to'.

I recommend brown or pink for your eyes. You want a shadow that compliments not matches your eye color. Blue eyed girls shouldn't use blue shadow.

But the lips look great and you're adorable.

Sweetie, you are such a beautiful girl.  I am also jealous.

I think it all looks very natural.  Besides what has been said, maybe a touch of blush only on the apples of your cheeks and a little darker shade under them to contour.  But hey, you are gorgeous just like you are.

Here is make up now refined.

Instead of full purple, I just use purple on the inner corners and a silvery blue on the rest, then blend them with my fingers a little.

The gloss is the same color but I wore it lighter. It wore all off, no gloss is really on there.

The best makeup is when you can't tell it's there... and I think you nailed it.

Beautiful.... VERY very pretty.

Claire,

Wow, you look so stunningly beautiful (memories of me experimenting with my mum's make up 30 years ago ...).  You're just so lucky to be your age in 2008 ! 

And girl, from someone who introduced herself as a "geek", "not very feminine" ... you've come a long way in a year !

Honestly I don't think you need much make-up, or that it really suits you.  That bit of eye colour and lip gloss is just perfect for your age.  You have lovely skin ... you obviously don't need foundation, blusher, or powders ...

Did you do those eyebrows yourself ?

Kind of think that any mascara or eye liner would ruin your fresh natural look.

P.S. I so love that hair colour ... guess its real too.

I have my eyebrows waxed at an amazing salon and maintain them myself. And yes, my hair color is natural.  :)

Your make up looks very natural and feminine, as others commented.

I am wondering possible benefits of waxing eyebrows. Is there any popular cream or formula for waxing?

Your make-up looks very natural.  I am not very good at color but know you have applied your make up to compliment your looks without overdoing it and looking fake or noticable.  Enjoy being out, you will be noticed as a very beautiful young lady.

I can only say what othershave said, you are beautiful. You have a natural beauty which your lightly applied makeup compliments and enhances. If I did not know from reading this post I would have said that you are definitely a GG.

Hi Gracie,

Really like the second pic better than the first and I was as jealous as Hell at the first :laugh:

Looks good. I know you are posing  which makes it difficult. Just a suggestion, and this is for everyone and not just for you, Gracie. If you have a full length mirror, and what woman doesn't? Stand in front of it and video yourself  holding a book and reading. If you can try it for several minutes if not longer. Try It sitting.  Why?. Because if you can lose the distraction of trying to look a certain way, you will find how you look in normal settings. The idea is to turn off the mind and see the body talk.

Secondly Gracie. Go and give your Mum another big kiss. She is awesome, and to have such a beautiful daughter, she is a lucky Mum, but Mum's need reminding of that. As do daughters about their Mum.

Take Care
Hugs

Cindy
