The Make-Up Thread: Because we all like to feel pretty sometimes
Allie_Allie:
Haha, thank you :) You should practice with kohl eyeliner and make faint lines of what you want to do, that way it won't be a big deal if you mess up. When you have it the way you want it, just go over it with a heavier hand.
Welu:
The first two eye make-ups are gorgeous! You also have great eyebrows.
GarandMarine:
I am dealing with some serious stress/sleep dep acne (almost like I'm an insomniac with an anxiety disorder or some shit... >.>;) and while I am not a vain man... sorta... I do like looking good for dates and the like, so while I'm clearing the acne up I am considering using some concealer. Any protips? I am completely clueless on the use and application of make up, I only know what concealer is because an ex used it so we could cover up some bite marks/hickeys.
TRVA123:
for serious cover up, I use a liquid foundation and then cover that with a powder foundation. You might just want to ask an employee at a walgreens near you, they can help match the skintone and such so the makeup doesn't stand out. They also probably won't push seriously expensive products at you.
Here are the specific brands that I use:
covergirl true blend liquid foundation
bare minerals powder foundation and mineral veil.
They work fairly well, but if you are trying to cover up a cut or popped pimple the bump might still show.
lepetitfromage:
I tend to like the fancy green sticks for neutralizing any redness (I think my current one is by Neutrogena but any that I've tried have always worked well), then covering with a light powder or foundation. I generally tend to like CG products as well but Bare Minerals can get a bit shiny.
Also, this is the best acne treatment I have ever used. And I've tried A LOT. (FYI- Proactiv sucks.)
