Quote from: Dawn Kellie on Today at 02:47:42 PMRemember little girls get years to practice with makeup. Mothers and others helping. It's not easy. It takes time to get your look. I went and got color matched at a department store. It was an amazing feeling. The gal behind the counter didn't even bat an eye. I did this all on my own. It took me a couple tries. You got this i have faith in you
This is so true.
I honestly think we all look like clowns when we first start trying makeup. Make up is a learned skill, you aren't born with it. It's art. My best advice is to watch Youtube videos offering tips and techniques for women your own age, with similar facial features and skin tone preferably.
Also, try sitting down at a pavement or mall cafe and observe women your own age (carefull not to stare though!) apart from the odd exception who seem to love rocking the clown look you will find that less is usually more. There's a lot to learn and it takes lots of practise. Take selfies each time you do it, it can provide a good reference point and shows how your style is evolving and it's bloody funny looking back at your early attempts!
Theres also a difference between everyday makeup and getting ready for a night on the tiles.
Your style never really stops evolving as fashions change and styles vary with age
It's a learning process, express yourself and have fun!
