    Nearly Naked FOY

    Well this is technically Face Of YESTERAY. And like the title said, it's nearly naked. I did use quite a few colours/things but the camera flash washed me out totally. Couldn't get better lighting either since it was nightime, so my apologies ladies/gents. FACE: MAC Select Tint Maybelline NY...

    Can anyone wear any coloured eyeshadow? Which ones didn't work for you?

    I've heard some people say that anyone with any skintone/eyecolour CAN pull off ANY colour, it just depends on the application technique, placement and what colours are combined with it. What do you guys think? Any MAC shadow colours that just wouldn't work for you? [Please provide skintone as...

    Black Eyeshadow Problem

    Hi everyone! I just have a problem with black eyeshadow, it looks so good when you guys wear it on ur FOTD/ TUTs but I can never get it to BLEND for me. I am using a fluffy brush but the colour just ends up in a big matte smudge. It just looks like I've rubbed dirt on my eyes. Any suggestions?

    When is the right age to start dating? Parent problems.

    I love my parents both very much. I also love my bf very much. And that seems to create a problem since my mom (dads are a WHOLE different story) thinks i shouldn't date until I am done university and given myself 2 yrs to settle down into life. Which means around 22-24 (she's leaning on 24)...

    MAC Foundations question I've been wondering about

    I was just reading the ingredients list for the MAC foundations and I've found that Studio Fix has pretty much only 7-8 chemicals/ingredients yet it's one of the foundations that makes most people break out. All the rest of the MAC foundations have WAY more ingredients and most of which I can't...

    Primers_ are they worth it to use?

    I"ve always been alittle skeptical about using makeup primers of any sort. Somehow I already feel kinda bad about smothering my poor acne-prone face in foundation and adding a primer just seems like something extra waiting to clog my pores. Yet some ppl say a primer actually PROTECTS your pores...
