Makeup Help!!!

Re: Makeup Help!!!

:)

i dunno... you wouldn't use black shadow for dark eyes, but you could easily do a smokey eye with other dark colours like navy blues, dark green's, khaki's or even brown's and grey's. sooo many colour options- who says a smokey eye has to be black??

don’t underestimate non-desi makeup artists, man… if they’re a good mua, then you can do any look. you might not wear it a lot, but that doesn’t mean you won’t know how to put it together. give it a shot! at least ask- what do you have to lose?
one of the weddings i went to, the mua was a gori but she did the nicest dark turqoise smokey eyes on me that i’ve ever had done- they were hot!

and here’s tons of video tutorials for smokey eyes:

you could also go to Sephora and pick this up- http://sephora.com/browse/product.jhtml?id=P222602&categoryId=S10501&shouldPaginate=true

^ i was talking abt punjabi rose lol i aint seen ur eyes..

lol ok sorry.. I misunderstood thinking u were probably talking about the pic posted of my eye makeup


You want your make up to look Pakistani? I dont know of that look, apart from flour on face look.

As for the arabic look - find an arab innit! Job done!

I was talking about pakistani/arabic EYE MAKEUP. I agree that pakistanis (especially brides) put too much foundation on to look like snow white!

Arab girls, on the other hand, naturally have nice skin, there's a glow to their complexion. I know because I myself was born in saudi arabia and i remember all the beautiful women I seen there. Even i used to have great skin, mom tells us that people used to stop us on the streets and admire our cuteness! haha lol! That all got ruined when we moved to pakistan, me and my siblings had SERIOUS skin problems. And then we moved to Ireland and the irish climate is yuccckkkk! To worsen the problem, I became a teenager!! My skin is as disastrous as it could get! I'm 21 and hoping it would soon improve once i develop some "adult" hormones!

Anyways, the point I was trying to make was that arabic girls have a naturally beautiful skin so don't blame their makeup for making them look very fair. Arabic makeup is gorgeous in all aspects, pakistani eye makeup is great but the rest needs attention.

Re: Makeup Help!!!

Arab girls are lush. I remember being at the shisha bar and i jus cudnt stop staring at this beautiful arab woman. I had to go up to her and compliment her. She was adorable!!

I love everything about arabs :)

So true! I still have friends in saudi arabia and I was chatting with one of them one day. I was talking to him about my experiences in pakistan and how i nearly murdered one man (guess why!!! )
So anways, that led us onto the topic of how strict the religious police is in saudi arabia about things like boys teasing girls. He told me that recently they caught two boys doing something pretty sick to a girl in a public garden, they arrested the boys, took them away and gave them each 100 lashes!!!

I was like "I wish they could do that in Pakistan"

And do u know what he said to me... "Well, actually, arab girls are very ahemmm, I don't blame the boys!"

I was like ur all jerks, lol!

Re: Makeup Help!!!

So much conflict on this thread!

Lipstick i got individual lash inserts in i prefer them than wearing mascara :)

Huma - Oh my! Thats awful... Doesnt matter how pretty a girl is, Men have no right to touch a woman!
Men are jerks tho!!

And i feel for you having to move frm saudi to pakistan... But atleast your in Ireland now!:d

Re: Makeup Help!!!

^ individual inserts look more natural too. might give them a go!

I don’t think its awful that they got 100 lashes each. I think its pretty sweet!! :smiley:
If you had experienced in pakistan what I did, you would feel as good as I do about such sick men getting what they deserve. I remember watching a comedy stage show of Umar Shareef and he made a joke that the national game of pakistan is not hockey any more.. its teasing girls! :cb:

haha lol about me moving to ireland.. trust me girl, Ireland is the MOST BORING place in the world!!! For us desis anways! There’s not much indian/paki community here at all. None compared to Uk. So its sooo lonely. And all they do for fun here in ireland is go to pubs to get drunk. I’m serious, there’s literally nothing else for u to do .. just sight-seeing and getting drunk! There’s no parks here like iqbal park in lahore with all the rides, there’s nothing like sozo water park, there’s only one zoo in the capital city,… so boring!!

Re: Makeup Help!!!

^ i meant awful as in what those guys did.

You can always move? Or is that forbidden?

Re: Makeup Help!!!

@mixed beauty-mA u have beautiful eyes and a pretty face. LOL@the rest of the thread!

Re: Makeup Help!!!

you have no friends to hang out with? non-desi's can be a lot of fun to hang out with if you give them a chance. how about volunteering or taking up some social hobby that doesn't involve getting drunk? don't want to sound patronizing, sincerely, but have you ever been to a pub? you can drink non-alcoholic drinks in there and just chill with friends. the whole point is social interaction- if you don't put yourself out there, you're going to continue feeling lonely.

and, agreed, arab girls have GORGEOUS skin- i can attest to that from what i've seen in dubai. their makeup can be a bit ott in the daytime though, but very pretty nonetheless.

wow! what a dance by the bride and groom- looks like they enjoyed their mehndi to the fullest! awesome, that’s how it should be.. mehndis should be fun with lots of hungama, and it shouldn’t just be the guests coming and having all the good time, the couple deserves it more.

Your eyes are prettier in my opinion Mixed Beauty (mA) :) And as I said before, your eyeliner application is wonderful in my opinion.

And you can totally use liquid liner on your waterline. I have been doing it for almost ten years now. lol. I have never gotten pink eye a single time nor had any other kind of eye problem. An Indian girl actually taught me this trick years ago. It seals your pencil liner so that its less likely to smudge and the double layer of the liner makes the black even blacker.

Totally agree with this. My best friend is lebanese and her skin is flawless and has a natural glow. I think arabic girls also naturally have very exotic/gorgeous eye shapes. Their already pretty eye is enhanced to its fullest by the incredible makeup they do. That is my opinion. I'll apply the exact same eye makeup on my friend that I did on myself and it just looks so much more stunning on her. It is because of the natural shape of her eye :)

Pakistani girls need to learn to embrace the natural color of their skin tone .... that might help with the overly - white - powdered look that way too many girls are rocking (but not getting away with).

Lets all go back to the original topic please..

Punjabi rose! :nono: Just by looking at your eye you can tell your a stunner! mashallah!! I’ve never tried putting liquid in my waterline. hmm seems like a really good idea.

Thank you thats so sweet of you. :wub:
