Answer 1

Answer 2

wow u sound just like me before i started wearing makeup...great skin, bronze skin and dark eyes and hair
well what i do and everyone says i look super cute with it (im 14)
is...
1) wash my face really good and dry
2) apply a little bit of bronzer- blending it into my neck to avoid having a line...i think that bronzer is perfect for our type of skin tone because it realy evens it out :)
3) take an angled brush and line the upper eyelid with a thin line of black sparkly eyeshadow (maybe since youre new to makeup skip this for now and try it when you get more used to it)
4) use black eyeliner underneath the eye
5) use some mascara on the top lashes
6) a little bit of lip gloss

hope i helped!

Honey don't worry about wearing lots of make-up. But if you want to wear it. You must know this, A LITTLE GOES A LONG WAY!!!. Don't plaster your face with it. For everyday wearing there is no need to apply foundation or face powder. A light tap under your eyes with a pinch size amount of concealer. Go for something same shade a your skin. When buying cosmetics, look for the dermatologist tested, hypo-allergic if you have very sensitive skin, oil free, and something that won't clog pores. a cosmetician at a drug store will help you. Al ways make sure you wash the make-up of your face properly before going t bed.
Anyway for school a light tap of concealer as I said before and your lip gloss is fine.Also remember go with something that goes with your skin color and eyeshadow , something that brings out your eyes.

Answer 4

the idea of make up is to enhance skin, not mask it. kudos on having great skin at 13! lipgloss is good, lipstick can crack your lips if its not vitamin enriched. for now, you can start with mascara and very thin eyeliner. you can also have a subtle blusher for accentuating those cheekbones. Invest in a known brand. Its better for your skin. Chambor RR5 works well for e personally. Minimum acne? try going for no acne. try a good acne solution like acne sol or clearasil. Ive heard about something called proactiv solution, thats been tested and vouched for, but dont take my word for it, i havent had acne for a long time. by the way, check if you have dandruff. in that case dandruffy hair or greasy hair can cause acne too, and try keeping it away from your face, atleast while sleeping. Hope this helps!

Answer 5

Makeup won't really drastically change the nature of your skin. As long as you wash off your makeup everyday at night and you don't wear really heavy layers, you should be fine! And I would suggest to keep on using cleanser, toner, scrub, and moisturizer. Try to buy makeup from "Bare Escentuals" because their makeup is oil free and is better for the skin overall.

Answer 6

Id steer clear of foundation and mascara, but I feel like a blush, some gloss, and some pinks and golds for eye shadows along with the basic brown and vanilla would be good... it's never too early to start practicing with makeup. Just don't use mascara yet. Until about 16 or 17 it just makes you look sleepy. As for the circles under the eyes, my mom used to soak cotton pads in milk. Shed wipe some egg white under her eyes, let it dry, wash it off, and then put the milky cotton pads on her eyes at night... i dunno if it actually worked, but she never had circles...

Answer 7

Wearing makeup won't mess up your skin as long as you don't use pore-clogging foundation. Try skin-clearing foundation from Neturogena. Blue eyeshadow looks best with brown eyes and eyeliner looks good on most people. Just make sure that you choose one area to highlight at a time...paring smoky eyes with nude lips is always sexy for a night time look.

Answer 8

K you can get creams for under your eyes and you can also wear concealer to cover those up. You could try a lighter liquid concealer then your skin to help with that if you want.
I would try using eye shadows and mascara and perhaps some eyeliner.
Try not to cover your skin if foundation though as that can help towards spots and ages your skin. Plus you obviously don't need it!

Answer 9

you shouldn't really worry. bronze skin is good so you dont need anything, maybe just wear eye shadow and your lip gloss. dont wear concealor or foundation you dont need it you skin is a good color and in good condition, you dont want to get more acne b/c thats what it tend to do. thats it. dont worry much bout make up your only 13/14, so yeah.your pretty much naturally pretty in my book. lol.

Answer 10

If you are goign to start wearing make-up start off using very little and try to find healthy makup like I.D bear minerals. I use it and i can sleep in it with out any irratiaon or zits poping up the next morning. They sell everything you need and if you buy the kit it will tell you how to apply and everything.

Answer 11

Just do not use powder or foundation....try Almay eye makeup, they have a set that is for your specific eye color...also they make a cream for under eye circles...it really brightens your eyes....also remember eyes are the first thing a guy looks at...hope this helps!!!
