I have very pale skin, dark brown, shoulder- length hair, and blue-gray eyes. I have tons of freckles, and I'm also slightly sunburnt(yes, I had on sunscreen, and no, I can't tan).
I'm having my senior pictures done on Wednesday, and I want to look my best. I don't like to wear a ton of make-up; usually just bronzer(on eye's too), lip-gloss, and a little clear mascara. I usually keep what I do wear pretty natural. I just don't know what would look good, and I'll be changing to several different outfits. Can you help me? Any help is greatly appreciated!

Try a fair skin tone loose powder, peach powder blush on, dark brown mascara, olive or any other subtle green eyeshadow and a mauve lipstick-pink with purple undertone-. Also try the Frieda or Frederich Glaze for Brown Hair-really deepens the color of brown hair and gives it a WOW Shine-comes in red,blonde and brown. Can also try a subtle liquid makeup one that is barely there but one has to get the right shade and shouldn't be able to tell difference face and neck has to be blended in. I prefer the loose powder with sunscreen( Sunscreen should be every AM whether sunny or cloudy or rainy-Neutragena Sunscreen +30 is great for also moisturizes.-you'll be glad for protects not only cancer but also from wrinkles) Instead of Mascara I take a darkbrown eyebrow pencil and line top lid right where lashes end and smudge a bit and also lower lash line-right where lashes go into skin not too dark why dark brown just right. For me its Eyebrow pencil-brows and eyes, blush on(a must for me for adds color to my face) and mauve lipstick. A must every AM is Witch hazel after cleaning, Sunscreen-neutrogena +30. The witch hazel keeps skin clear and eyes from being puffy. Hope I helped. I just know tht you'll look great..

The rule of thumb is contrasting eye-shadow to bring out your eye color. If you have blue gray eyes, stay away from blue or gray shadow and go with browns, lavenders, greens, etc. You should never choose eyeshadow just because it matches your outfit. To keep your look natural, use a peachy or coral color lip color. You'll look natural and beautiful.

Maybe some pale green or muted blue on the outside corners of your eyes and under bottom lashes. pale peach on the apples of your cheeks .A copper liner on your lips for definition. Sounds like you have a pretty good handle on it. Good Luck!!

Golden bronze eye shadow or a gray-blue would bring out your eyes
but use light amounts and blend it with white

never put blush or bronzer on your eyes. theyre only used for your cheeks for a reason. the skin on your eyes are much thinner than on your face, so you eyes can get very irritated etc... for you eyes, i would do a brown eyeshadow. [try milani java bean], for your cheeks, try a soft pink blush [ wet and wild-pearlesent pink] and a soft pink lipgloss [ revlon: pink afterglow] hope that helps!
