Thanks. :)What makeup color would go well with me? Eyeshadow, eyeliner, mascara, blush, lipgloss?
sounds like your coloring i salmost the same as mine and i am greek! i like to use really natural looking makeup or i apply my makeup very lightly. for eye shadow, go with something like a taupe, sand, or nude color. with eyeliner, you should use black if your want to have a dramatic look. use brown when you want to have a softer look. With mascara it is the same as eyeliner(black=dramatic, brown=soft). For blush the best way to find out what color you should get is by pinching the apple of your cheek. this color is the color you should shoot for when you are looking for blush. with lipgloss,go with a pink/rosey or nude color. you can try on different colors when you go to a departmant store and see what looks best. if you are having trouble finding something the sales person can help you. you can also try going to sephora or mac, which are really good places to look for makeup. mac has every color you can imagine and sephora has pretty much all of the makeup brands, but some of them you go to the department store. some products that i use are:
Eyeshadow:
Mac eyeshadow in naked lunch,behold, and dove-feather, L'oreal matte eyeshadow in smooth latte(drugstore), jane iredale eyeshadow duo in taupe/french toast, flirt cosmetics eyeshadow in funny honey(buy it at kohl's), and my favorite--estee lauder eyeshadow in pale moon. you can find most of these at a good department store.
Eyeliner:
a really good cheap eyeliner is prestige soft blend khol eyeliner in jet black. it goes on really smoothly and stays on for a while and is only about 2-3 dollars. if you want liquid liner, get makeup forever professional waterproof eyeliner.
Mascara:
i wouldn't get an extremely expensive brand of mascara because they go bad in a few months and most of the drugstore brands are just as good. i like maybelline lash discovery,maybelline unstoppable,and covergirl lashexact. if you want to go natural you can get a clear mascara like maybelline great lash in clear. another good one is pout wet lash(i splurged, you have to get this at sephora) which also conditions your lashes.
Blush:
for blush get covergirl cheekers in rose silk or blissglows pink slip. my favorite is benefit dandelion, which is a blush but you can put it all over your face for a nice, healthy glow. it is one of my absolute favorite cosmetics!
Lipgloss:
my favorite!l'oreal colour juice in watermelon crush and the color of hope are soooo good. they smell really good too. my other favorites are jane iredale lipgloss in mulberry, lancome juicy tubes in daiquiri, urban decay lube in a tube in NYC, and of course liquid lipsmacker in watermelon and strawberry kiwi.
Some other great products!:
Plumping lip gloss is great! i use DuWop lip venom which is a spicy, tingling lip gloss that plumps up your lips and increases circulation which makes you lips look there best color.if you have sensitive skin get lip venom lite.also try smith's rosebud salve which is an all purpose moisturizer. you can use it on your lipsor hands if they are chapped, and on your cheeks for a dewy look. Sally hanson invisible lip liner is another favorite.you can use it with any lip color(it has no color it is invisible). make sure you have good makeup brushes too because the way you put on your makeup is very important.
if none of these work for you for whatever reason some good brands to look for are benefit, maybelline, covergirl, mac, smashbox, nars, lancome, laura mercier, etc. try going to sephora.com and see what you like!
hope i helped!What makeup color would go well with me? Eyeshadow, eyeliner, mascara, blush, lipgloss?
I say just mascara and nude lipgloss...you don't need much!
Virtual Makeover is great. You can play with colors and find a look you will love. Then it shows you how to apply your new look. Just click the link below.
wow...u hav very dramatic eyes....well i would try to keep a very natural look....use gold toned eyeshadowz to draw out the colors in your eyes...if u use eyeliner %26amp; mascara, use a dark brown....blush shud b a bronzer....lipgloss just use clear or a very natural tone...
good luck %26amp; much luv
goldish eyeshadow, brown eyeliner, black mascara, a light pink blush, and like a light brown lipgloss, or clear would do great too.
I think that kind of gold-olive-green look (you know what I mean?) would go best with your skin for eyeshadow, it looks really nice. Black eyeliner is definitely best for your skintone, a brown or black mascara, golden blush and a slightly golden tinted lipgloss.
But experiment around good luck!
