Here's some tips on cos MAKEUP!
These are my recommended things to do with your make up you don't have to read this!


Lips:

Use sugar and honey on your lips before anything! Combine a little bit of honey and lots of sugar in a small container, and then rub it on! It really does help with the overall look, nobody likes cracked lips yuck! Lols After you do that use a CHAPSTICK, NOT LIPGLOSS, then lipstick or whatevers.

If you're a girly girl use a shimmer over pink lipstick (ex. Lolitas/ Dolly/ Fairy Kei)
Little bit of red blended for general girl cos lol.
NUDE lipstick for crossplaying boys! (Or concealer)
Deep red or black for more dramatic characaters.

Eyebrows:
If you have more thick eyebrows: Use concealer first then wait for it to dry a little. After put on white glue, nontoxic, NO SUPER GLUE. After, trace your eyebrows using watercolors or eyeliner. In heat, this method won't wear off!
If you have more thin eyebrows: Use a little glue on the insides of your eyebrows. After it's dry-ish eye shadow should work best.
How I got my white eyebrows: I did a mixture of both of them, first glue, then I put on concealer on the outsides of my eyebrows. I used white eyeliner to trace my eyebrows and filled it in with white eye shadow.

Uneven skin tones on your face:
Argh, so many on my face lol! I personally dislike concealer on my face because it is too thick for my skin to handle. First I put on a tinted moisturizer. Then my ugly blotches are disappeared by using SMALL amounts of under eye concealer. Before putting on powder, make sure it's 100% dry!

Eyeshades:
Here is the colors I go by:
Wig – Color eye shadow

Pink – Grey
Green – Pink
Blue – Green
Red -  Black
Brown – Blue
Black – White
Purple – Yellow
Yellow/Blonde – Brown
Grey/White – Red
Orange – purple

I hope this helps! :D
Thanks for reading. :huggle:
