Make up!!!!?

Question

I have never used make up before. What should I start with?? I have no idea how and what to do... Help!!!

Answer 1

Okay....i does sound like you need a little help. Okay, a lot of help. When I started out wearing makeup, I went really light- I skipped eyeliner and stuff. I think what would be best for you is to us some eyeshadow, mascara, blush, and lip gloss. Here's how to do it.

EYESHADOW

Find a couple different colors that you like. You will need a light shade of a certain color (I recommend pink), a darker shade of the same color, and a shimmery shade of the same color. I'm going to use pink here. Close one of your eyes and sweep a shadow of light pink from your lash line to your brow bone. Then apply your shimmery pink from your lash line to your crease. (I recommend the Maybelline dream mousse eyeshadow in the Heavenly Pink shade) Next put a little bit of dark pink in your crease only. (If you're not sure what all these things are, ask a friend or a family member). Next repeat with the other eye.

MASCARA

For a gentler look, I would suggest using dark brown, but you can use black if you want. To apply, take out the mascara brush and hold it under your eyelash. Blink. The mascara will transfer to your eyelash. And definetly keep it to one coat. More than one looks really weird. A mascara that i recommend to people alot is Clinique mascara. It works great.

BLUSH

Choose a nice, light pink blush. Suck in your cheeks. See the hollows of your cheeks? The blush starts there. Blend it out to your hairline, using less and less as you go along.

LIP GLOSS

Never use lip stick. The only lip stick that I would recommend would be the Burt's Bees lip shimmers. They work great and hydrate your lips. I would choose a light colored gloss for your lips. Just apply throughout the day when needed. Don't use lipliner.

Hope that helps and good luck!!!

Answer 2

Personally if youve never worn make up i wouldnt start with using lots of different things because you may end up with a skin outbreak ie spots etc, Start off with perhaps a tinted moisturiser or a lightweight foundation, some mascara and lipstick. Avon is really good for returning make up items so if you order from them and didnt like the colour or the product didnt suit your skin you can send them back, Alternatively pop into boots or a leading makeup selling store and let a professional advise you they will look at you and tell you what colours etc will suit your skintone.
hope this helps.

Answer 3

It matters how old you are like if your 12 or 13 you would want to start using like light or a soft eyeshadow but if your like 15 16 or 17 then u want to use like eye liner and mascara but never go over board with your make up because you can start to look like a clown!

Answer 4

First thing is first never, or try not to use foundation, even though it makes you look beautiful etc etc, but once you start with that depending on your skin it will break your face out. #2 lip liner with a right shade of lip gloss, and some eye liner and eye shadow is all you need, but remember try not or never use foundation all you need is a little nick nacks to put on your eyes and lips.

Answer 5

firs start with a light eye shadow and concieler and some blusher then u can start 2 use eye liners and mascara thats good 4 beginners

Answer 6

Go to a make up counter and have them do your make-up for the first time. You can either buy what they use if you like it or go to a discount store like walgreens or walmart and buy what they used. I reccomend purchasing the make up counters stuff the first time and after you use it up you eill have the knowledge of what you like and dont like and can then go to a discount store
