I am the same hun, but i dye my hair brown and dont have glasses. Before i started doing this i had a free consultation at benefit - they have stalls in boots - And they told me everything i needed to know. Eg. Green eyeliner doesnt bring out green eyes, it hides them - go for mauve shades instead, purple and green are from the same colour family make up wise, go for very pale green or beige/brown eyeshadows or steer clear alltogether as thiss too can hide green eyes, as for your skin tone - make the most of your freckles, dont try to hide them, a pale pink / peach shade of blush with a pale pressed powder over the top plus a highliter - i reccomend high beam from benefit - will give you a healthy beaming glow, add a slick of clear lipgloss, and your sorted! Hope this helps!

number 7, has just released a foundation that reacts with your own skin pigment to create a matching colour, that will certainly hide any blemishes or blushing. Although your half way their if you apply your make up correctly. The body shop has just brough out a new foundation brush, with really soft flat bristles, which does not soak up half the foundation but applies it thoroughly and evenly. Depending on the skin you have also can determine what foundtaion you should use. If you have even skin, which is neither dry nor greasy, then the number 7 as mentioned above is great, if your ski is dry then the body shop does a range with all the oil still in the liquad, unlike most which have been removed. Dust a little powder, with a large soft bristled brush to seal in the foundation.
for more professional advice, pop into the body shop and not only will they help but they will also try roducts out on you to find what would suit you.
good luck.

First, start with your foundation. Red hair generally adds warmth to the skin, but like you said it can make you look red quite a lot!. Use more goldy based foundation if you have like orange ginger hair. or if your hair is actually the red side, get a porcelin type foundation... that would look absolutley stunning. because the hair would really compliment your skin.
eyeshadow- gold-flecked greens and soft browns, you know the khaki kinda colours, or wear none at all, you can just wear a light brown one to emphasise the yes.
wear a lot of mascara, but a light amount of eyeline
lips- strong vibrant reds!

eh. u dont really need makeup,

but if you wear it go natural. light eyeliner makes people look really pretty. i think dark blue or black would work for u, even a light brown or gold would look nice

mascara helps too, but not too much, or it gives a dark effect to the face. nude colored cheeks with a slightly rosy touch look nice, and foundation can help alot. i prefer powder over liquid but make sure you dont put too much. lip gloss makes the lips look pretty but not too attractive, flavor makes it taste good too. try sugur plum by lip smackers, and then add lip stick on top, light pink or a slightly maroon, to help it stick.

for night time you may want the theme to be a lttle darker, and maybe use some more mascara (XXL Lashes works really nice!) darker lip stick, and show off those cheek bones

dont buy make up from drug stores unless u r sure they work, cuz alot of ppl i no got allergies from them. clinique works best for me:D

Hey

Well i work at the body shop in Eastbourne and i would suggest either going for natural colours or shaddy colours at the corners of your eyes.

With your hair colour you do not need much make up on at all most people just need a little make up with your hair colour because you have a natural colour anyway.

Go for browns or grey colours do not go near Blue, Purple or pink and definitley not black or white.

Hope i helped.

It is kind of hard to dispense makeup advice without seeing your face - i.e. you skin coloring, shape of your eyes, face, cheekbones, etc. However, the best I can recommend for you is Bare Essentials - it is a wonderful makeup line that is made to match ANY skin tone and I find that their pigments are earthy colors - no clownish color there!! It is simple to use - they provide a guide book so you can do it yourself quickly - and the powder for your face is GOOD for your skin. I have not had a breakout since I started using this makeup.

Good luck!!

I'd classify you as a warm "tone" and being Spring I'd choose a nice warm mineral powder foundation- to cover flaws and make you radiate- stay away from red..
as for color - stick to a natural light brown color - for eyes
or light with a hue of pink - / linen color (off white/earthy)
a brownish earthy light blush
mossy eye liner
brown black mascara
and a honey doo coral like lip gloss.

these products are fantastic, my sister is a make up artist @ jemma kidds company, and she swears by MAC, benefit and models prefer...
ive just text her and she said as you have green eyes stick with greeny khaki colours, and naturel shades for during the day, and at night, use dark browns and greys, but be careful that you dont over do it!
