I am going to be doing my sister's makeup for her grad dinner and her grad ceremony (I dunno about the ceremony...but I asked if I could do it for the dinner and she agreed).
The problem is that she has a hard time wearing makeup without looking like a complete fool. I have tried to do her makeup before (before getting better at it haha) and it seems like any makeup is too much makeup.
However, she has "problem areas" which, IMO, would benefit GREATLY from makeup...plus she wants to look dolled up and pretty for her grad.
I once tried to do like a lavender eye to help bring out her big brown eyes and she just looked like a clown, or like she got hit in the face.
So I was just wondering what kind of look I should aim for when doing her MU. I want something classic and pretty, not overdone, but still suitable for a sitdown meal at a fancy restaurant (it would basically be like a wedding reception).
She has:
Fair-medium yellowy toned skin
Dark brown eyes with long dark lashes
Light brown hair
Problem areas:
yellowy skin (she sometimes looks almost jaundiced, which is weird cuz I am super pink undertones and so is my other sister)
really dark undereye circles (she got black eyes in elementary school and it kinda still looks like she has remnants even though she is in grade 12 now)
she looks young...like 12-13 ish and she is 17
I am fine with doing her foundation and coverup I just don't know what to do on her eyes and lips to make them dressed up without making her look like a circus performer.
