Re: Make Up
**you don’t want womanly type of makeup… then what, manly type? lol just kidding, i know what you mean! **
try this- put a tiny dot of foundation plus moisturiser on the palm of your hand, and then mix it together with your finger and then dot all over your face, and then blend with your fingers or a makeup sponge. that will give it an even look and it wont be too thuppa hua.
otherwise, try mac’s studio fix powder… http://www.maccosmetics.com/templates/products/sp.tmpl?CATEGORY_ID=CATEGORY15107&PRODUCT_ID=PROD1379 -i’ve been using that for almost 10 years now and its awesome. the only drawback is that it doesnt have any SPF protection, but if your foundation does, then that should take care of the SPF. oh and always moisturise before using any makeup on your skin- it goes on smoother. if you live in pakistan (you do right?) and its hot, use a very light, non oily moisturiser- i like oil of olay. the newer versions absorb really quickly and are non-greasy.
when i go to work, i usually wear studio fix, with eyeliner (and i experiment with colors- try plum or dark green or teal or brown or any of the other colors out there), mascara, a bit of blush and usually sheer lipcolor.
sometimes if i get tired of wearing eyeliner, i wear a bit of shadow- just use your finger. dab it into the shadow, and then apply to your lid. the end color will be sheer, not matte. and this way you can use whatever color you want! and if its too light for you, you can keep applying till you get the intensity of color you want.
some tips for colors to use with brown eyes- http://beauty.about.com/cs/browneyes/index.htm
and if you really feel like doing nothing, use an eyelash curler and then apply mascara. makes a ton of difference to just using mascara on its own.
^ LOL - i mean:naraz: I dont need makeup to look manly a few days of not maintaining myself i.e. no eye brow threading, no muchi threading, no cutting hair etc will make me look manly enough in no time :hoonh:
Thanks for the tips though
- i live in Canada not Pakistan but i am going to go there soon Inshallah and thats why i need to know because i live near sea view area so the air there doesnt suit me much so i just want to look fresh when i go somewhere…
