And you may be over-critical of yourself...by posting looks you can see how it would translate on camera.

I might suggest staying away from the heavy foundation- you have good skin and you don't want it to look cakey on camera. Go for concealer and a light coverage foundation, but take test shots yourself in different types of lighting to see the colour of your foundation in pictures, cos you may be surprised!
Yes, I was going to do a couple of looks and post them as FOTD's to see what you guys thought! =)

I have really bad acne on my chin (I'm crazy broke out right now ) and I have freckles all over my face, so that's why I thought I'd go for the Dermablend. I thought about not the cover creme, but the one in the squeeze tube, it seems like it would be lighter. I'll post some pictures in the coming days before the shoot (it's next Sunday) and see what you guys think. My camera isn't so great so hopefully I'll get a couple good pics! Besides, even if I WANTED to hire a makeup artist, I looked for one and there isn't any even remotely near me! haha!

I want to do a neutral eye, even though thats what I do everday. I don't think I look very good in anything other than browns and golds. I tried to do a smokey eye, but it's just too overwhelming for my face.

Thanks! I did the makeup. It's just my same routine everyday: Foundation, neutral eye, brows, eyeliner, mascara & blush.

I'm just nervous because I know when everyone on here posts their makeup it shows up super good on camera and I feel that mine looks OK in real life, but isn't going to show up very well in the pictures.
