Q: I want subtle make-up for school...but I need help... I don't want to wear too much since I am in school...but I want a nice color that will make my eyes seem bigger and brighter. My skin tone is light/medium tan, my eyes are light brown, kinda hazely and I have thick dark brown eyebrows. I want a color that makes my eyes bigger and brighter but wont darken my skin tone or look too heavy :)
A: Here is the best makeup routine for you, specially made by yours truly =] 1) Wash your face at least once a day -- I know it is not make up, but having clear skin will take away from some of the desire to wear too much make up =] 2) Bronzer or Blush -- Dust bronzer along your cheekbones with a bronzer brush to highlight your cheekbones and give your face a healthy glow. Brush the bronzer from the apples of your cheeks along your cheekbones and into your hairline 3) Eye shadow (optional) -- The best colors for your eyes would be green, purple, or pink. Put a little bit on your eyelids close to your lash line, to give you some color but not exaggerate it. 4) Eye liner (optional) -- This will make your eyes pop. Make a thin line along your upper lid as close to your lash line as you can get, use your finger to smooth the line if you get a bump here or there. Use brown as opposed to black, it looks much more natural. Also when applying it, make a bunch of little lines to create a big line, that way you have less of a chance of creating a funny line! 5) Mascara -- Always put this on last to prevent any powder from getting on it and covering up the black. This is what basically makes the face so apply it to your upper lashes and if you want to, your lower lashes. Then voila! You are beautiful! I hope I could help =]]
