Answer 2

Regardless of the type of skin you have always, always wear a good moisturizer. I would suggest a concealer followed by a light weight foundation, a touch of eye shadow, mascara-always, and a lip gloss that you think looks good on you. Almost any drug store will help you with the choices, brands, etc. Ask lots of questions. Department stores offer makeovers that are usually free and you can get lots of makeup tips. If you have a beauty supply in your area such as Sallys, they are great to help you with your selections. You can never go wrong by sticking to well known brand name products. Loreal, Maybelline, Revlon, Max Factor, Cover Girl, etc. They have been around a long time for a good reason. It's difficult to actually tell you what product and what color unless someone actually sees your skin and coloring in person. Have fun experimenting and don't be afraid to toss or give away anything that you buy that isn't right for you. Most drugstores will actually refund your money or make an exchange if you don't like what you buy. I know that Walgreens is great about their return policy on makeup so if you make the wrong choice you just take the product and receipt back to them and start all over. I use BareMinerals and wouldn't use anything else but it's a bit pricey. If you can afford it that would be the best way to go. But if you want to experiment stick with the less expensive ones until you learn what you like and what works for you. Oh, and always get a moisturizer and foundation with sunscreen. It will pay off as you age and mature. Your skin will thank you for it later. Good luck and have fun. And always remember that less is best.

You are so very lucky!! An oval shaped face is actually considered to be perfect by most people because of it's beautiful symmetry. Usually broader at the cheeks, tapering in slightly at both the forehead and the chin. Mary Kay's makeup artist (Mary Kay is and has been the #1 skin care and color cosmetic company for 13 consecutive years) would tell you that because of the symmetry, you can play all you want. Oval shaped faces can support most makeup trends!!! Lucky girl!! Also, because of your features...warm colors would look stunning on you!!! Don't be afraid of using a dark black eyeliner on both tops and bottoms of your eyes. In all honesty the greens in your eyes will be awesome with warm colors like I said earlier, but it depends of the set of your eyes. Are they deep set, hooded, wide set, small, close set, droopy, or prominent. There is a recommendation by Mary Kay's makeup artist for each type. I can give you more details on all of that if you'd like, just let me know.

Answer 4

Well around your eyes I would go for a light brown or tope color eye-liner and purple or pink eyeshadows. But stay away from dark purples or dark pinks or too dark of browns around your eyes.

Since you have dark hair and pale skin you don't want to over do it. I would also try some pinkish tan blush and use a very small amount of blush.

Too much will make you look like a clown. And you don't want that. Go for the natural look with a little touch of color. Good luck.

Answer 5

You sound just like me! Except I have browny-green eyes. Use some cover-up for those little dark patches. You sound like you have beautifule yes to accentuate them, I use a maxfactor mascara to make your lashses big! Then use a black Kajal eye pencil on the bottom bit of your eye just to make it stand out. Co-ordinate your eye shadow to your outfit, or just use neutrals. The best foundation is dream-matt mousse by Maybelline I think, it feels lovely on your skin and comes in ivory to suit your skin, then lighten it up a bit with some dream matt blush - just a touch of the pink rubbed in will give you some colour and make you look lovely! Try straightening your hair for a glam finish too! Hope this helps!

Answer 6

type makeup suit face shape hair eyes

Answer 7

am a guy, and that is an awesome combination of features that you have. It really depends on what age, what personality, what interests and more that you have that determines what fits you.

However, personally, if conservative or traditional is more you, I think lightening your hair to maybe like a reddish tint on darkbrown hair color would be nice. Red lipstic, poweder to make your cheeks more pink, would look great.

On the less conservative side, black hair would be awesome with dark lipstic. It's like that rockstar Amy Lee on the band Evanescence. I'm Chinese, and I really think that's an awesome combination.

Answer 9

I'd go for a light and girly make up...just some foundation, with a light pink blush, and perhaps salmon, light green or light brown eyeshadow. Maybe some transparent or light pink lipgloss. I'd go for bright colors and avoid heavy dark eyemake up, if I were you.

Answer 10

try golds and browns for eye shadows.

get a eyeliner pen and draw a thin line above your lashes and flick it out at the end with lots of mascara. try browns in liners and mascaras as black can be too dark with pale skin.

peachy lips or light brown.

Answer 11
