Question by heydphony22: Makeup Help For My Facial Structure!? Advice???
I have deepset eyes (…maybe high cheekbones?) but they are still pretty big. I also have dark circles under them & that “natural eyeshadow” as I’ve heard it called, but it’s sort of just darker tones on my eyelids. I have a lot of space between my eye & eyebrow & my eyebrows are pretty big as well.At times I look pretty androgynous, definately leaning on the boyish side. However, sometimes I look like a 13 year old! (I’m 18). So I try to do makeup to correct one thing, but I guess I am a lot of contridictions so it is hard! Ha. Oh and I am VERY pale. I have tried lots of makeup and have had friends who are “good w/makeup” try to help, but I either end up looking like a child’s doll or like I have black, bruised eyes. Does anyone have any tips? I don’t wear makeup everyday, so I am more interested in tips for special occasions. I am not afraid to wear bright colors/dramatic eyes or the opposite.

Oh, by “13 year old” I meant 13 year old girl. Also, makeup that I’ve tried in the past have mostly been light browns/creams/sparkley pinks. None have really worked. And all around eyeliner is too heavy usually and too much mascara makes me look like a doll. However, it could be that the /application/ has been wrong, not the color scheme or products, so advice about putting it on as much as what to put on is totally appreciated. Thank you!!!

Question by Chantel S: Why do I have trouble applying makeup?
I’m thirteen, and I wear makeup every so often. I’m not a girly girl, and I’m not a tomboy. I’m just myself. I wear makeup often enough to know that less is more, so I stick with really neutral colors. When I try to apply eyeliner on my top lid, it always goes way above the lashline! I can never wear eyeliner because whether I put it on the top or the bottom, it always comes out the same. I have blue eyes (Not icy blue, just kinda regular blue with gold flecks), so I tend to go for brown eyeliners. How can I make it look like I don’t have a black eye?!?

Don’t come to me with crappy answers such as “You’re too young to be wearing makeup,” or “You shouldn’t have to wear makeup to make you feel pretty.” Because those aren’t useful to me.

Question by pondering: questions about eyes + colour matching… (“make up” wise )?
1. Well. I have sort of dark-olive (green, not black :p) eyes. But from afar, they look brown. The question is… how do I emphasise (sp correct? ) the green in them???
2. That said, I also have a question about lipsticks or lipglosses. I have a pale skin, and nearly black hair… What tone of lipstick or lipgloss would suit me? I a. tried bright red and sadly it didn’t suit me, and b. I wouldn’t want the colour to be too extreme!!!
Thx people
