What is the best like of makeup for men?

Question

Something really natural looking and affordable that wont destroy your skin. I know of: http://www.studio5ive.com/ but I'd love to know any opinions and tips before I commit to buying anything...

Answer 1

I have a personal preference to mineral liquid powder foundation from bee-luscious cosmetics its very light and airy with full coverage as well as all the makeup products I have gotten from them, its on beeroyalproducts.com if you want to look into them they are pricey but worth every penny because it always stays fresh and lasts for months mine is 6 months old and still strong

Answer 2

Don't be hoodwinked into believing that you need special 'man-makeup'. I work with male and female artists and I use the same makeup for everyone - everyone has skin and gets blemishes and uneven skin tone.

If you don't want to be spotted wearing it then ask an assistant for a reputable brand to demonstrate application techniques.

If you are trying to cover a particularly dark beard shadow then you will need something with a dense coverage - this is more likely to be cream based than liquid although there are good liquids out there. Avoid oil-based foundations, stick with silicone based products. These form a protective 'film' on your skin rather than being absorbed, plus silicone is chemically inert and will cause you less damage, and are less likely to dry out. Do wash your face thoroughly afterwards though.

If you are looking for a transvestite transformation then you should have zero qualms about using female ranges. Even if all you want is to improve your skin tone then there are more and better choices being marketed to women - don't be afraid, we have skin too! Maybe a tinted moisturiser is all you need.

best of luck

Answer 3

I don't think men should really wear make-up, but it all depends on the reason. The best kind not to dry out your skin or causes the least break outs (from experience that is) would be: Female brand: Cover girl. and Male brand: 4Voo. My friend is in a band so he needs make-up from time to time and that is what he uses. When he doesn't use it it does not cause any irritation nor when he wears it. http://www.4voo.com/ Expensive but worth it.

Answer 4

the most natural looking foundation i have tried is sally hansens airbrush foundation, check out the website before you go to the store because the names can be confusing. (i have fair skin and ended up wearing a shade with beach in the name)shake it well, spray it on a sponge then apply. it doesn't give you a glowy look or a matte look so to speak, it just makes your face look well "airbrushed"

Answer 5

If you're a male who just wants to cover up blemishes then use Tolsom. But if you're using it like a female and/or to bring out your more feminine features then just check out any line, like MAC etc. and find a friendly helper who will show you great colours for your skin.

Answer 6

you might want to try Almay Smart shade make up it blends to your skin tone and is very light but gives you the coverage you need. It runs about $8-$10 per bottle.

Answer 7

My husband uses Tolsom. It's formulated specifically for men since you guys have thicker skin than us. You can get it from the website listed below.

Answer 8

Men should not wear makeup, just take care of your skin...you should find a great skin care line and stick with it...
