what makeup is Jessica Burciaga wearing?

[aleksis210]

Actually makeup can make a person beautiful...and mac is cheaper than most brands(department store) Also, I'm pretty sure no one is buying mac because of jessica burciaga lol(she owns like what? one lipglass and a couple eyeshadows)...but whatever color you are isn't going to make you prettier, I wasn't trying to offend you! I'm sure your gorgeous, but you can tan as much as you want, and it's not going to make you look like jessica burciaga nor should you want to look like her, but buying the makeup she wears is perfectly harmless...(that's all I was trying to imply), Also, Becky mentioned she was mexican, so she probably doesn't tan too much. So unless your mexican or naturally dark, getting her skincolor is a little unrealistic(unless you like the orange look)...But anyway, I don't want to mess with becky's post. So I'm done!

..getting off now...

Makeup won't give you skin cancer, either.

It's a much safer way to experiment with looks.

she'd be beautiful even if her skin was 6 shades lighter. she def doesn't need pounds of makeup to look good either. i wouldn't confuse just luckily having pretty facial features with thinking buying her shade of foundation + pink lipglass will make u magically look like that. all i'm trying to say is, don't spend $100's on her list of goodies just becuz u want to clone her look, if u just like the shades then thats fine, but i really feel bad for girls who spend so much time trying to look like someone else, when in reality u never will.

whoa whoa.. im not TRYING to look like someone... but I think that she looks beautiful tan and ive been tanning for like 5 years-- i didnt just "start" because of her- i love her makeup and the tanner it looks like the better the makeup colors she wears look.

And to be completely honest, some people DO look better tan just like some people look better pale.. my bone structure and what not makes me look washed out and gross when i dont have some kind of color to me... my entire family and most of my friends agree.... when i came back to work after having my son and i was tan-- (it was teh first time most of my coworkers had EVER seen me with a tan since i started working there when i was 4 months pregnant) i got MAD compliments on how good my skin tone looked and how much healthier i looked- and this was from a bunch of guys who spend the entire day talking about sports and getting paid for it...for a few days the guys i work with were telling me I should keep up the tan bcause i looked "so awesome".. which i do.. and it makes me feel good.. and we're all going to die of something.. I dont smoke, RARELY drink, and i dont do drugs- so who cares if i tan???? I think i look better, I feel better about myself, and if I feel better about myself then who careswhat everyone else thinks? not me!

you didnt offend me sweetie- you're cool. I thought we were going the whole "beauty comes from within" route with that one so I was just making the point that if you're a beautiful person- you're a beautiful person with or without makeup.. or a tan.. haha to each their own- thats how i look at it!

 

[glam8babe]

i honestly think a tan looks nicer on anybody... some people look good pale but i think being tanned looks prettier, i wear fake tan everyday now and you cant see my acne scars and i just look more healthier and toned.

Totally agree- I just hope you didnt confuse my wanting to be tan with feeling bad about myself because of HER looks.. because that wasnt what i meant at all- I just love the way the colors look on her super tanned skin

but i totally agree with you- its sad that girls feel like that.... it makes me want to do something encouraging but this whole world is just fillllled with women who unfortunatley feel badly about themselves :-(

It is your personal choice and, speaking for myself, I realize that you aren't trying to start anything. I just think the ebb and flow of conversation has taken on another aspect of Jessica Burciaga's look, her tan.

Again, I just want to reiterate that I realize it is your personal choice and you can choose to justify them according to your priorities (i.e. "..i got MAD compliments on how good my skin tone looked.. ", or "..the guys i work with were telling me I should keep up the tan bcause i looked "so awesome"..", or "..and it makes me feel good.."), but the reality is that tanning can lead to cancer and death and it is an unnecessary risk.

It really doesn't matter if you don't smoke, do drugs or rarely drink. A risk is a risk. Again, I am not judging your personal choices. That is up to you to weigh that out. I am just speaking to my personal feelings on the subject.

The reality is that tanning is skin's bad reaction to sunlight exposure. That exposure can lead to cancer. That can lead to dying. Yes, we all do die someday, but why speed it up? My personal feelings are that I'm in no hurry to die. I would like to stick around and enjoy my life and my family. I'm not saying you are, again, I'm just making a statement about my personal feelings.

Why not love the skin your in? Why not use a self-tanner if you must have color? Why not wear a helmet on a motorcycle? Why not choose not to tan or smoke? Every smart decision we make helps our longevity.

Hell, I'm half Mexican and I still have to have a tan or I don't look quite as healthy and glowy. Sunless all the way tho!!

Anyway, I don't think wanting her tan or makeup should be confused with being unhappy with your own looks. I got that tone in a few posts above and found it rather silly. Just because someone wants to tan or use her makeup does not mean they do not want to look like themselves.

It does mean they don't want to look like themselves, as they are changing their appearance. Just like with hair and makeup, but those don't kill you.

As far as a tan looking "healthy and glowy", that is a huge oxymoron. Tanning is not healthy, it is your skin's adverse reaction to UV exposure.

We have all been conditioned to think a tan is better. "I'm half Mexican and I still have to have a tan...." We used to be conditioned to think that smoking wasn't all that bad, either.

Bottom line is that it is a dangerous thing to do.

Well, a lot of people in the earlier posts were making comments how they felt bad about themselves looking at her photos, and that shouldn't be the case!

That's all I meant by it. i think it's cool to see what different makeup color combos people come up with because some are artistically challenged (like myself lol), and I can learn a lot from it, but it makes me sad when people say it makes them "hate themselves" or whatever.

I like tanning but I think beauty has many different forms. If someone likes to tan, I'm sure they know the risks and they can go right ahead. there are many beautiful women without tans, i.e. natalie portman, keira knightly, scarlett johannsen etc, so it's not like to be beautiful is to be tan. However, I understand why someone would want to do it, and it is a personal choice.

In my post, I said I use sunless tanner. I also wear sunscreen everyday. If anyone is still hitting the tanning bed, I suggest they learn to tan smarter.

I saw that. I'm sorry if my post implied otherwise. I was just speaking more towards the people's attitudes towards and understandings of tanning due to UV exposure.

I don't see any harm in seeing a beautiful girl and having an inspiration to try something that she wears. (e/s combos, whatever) Especially in JB's case, she wears mostly neutrals that would flatter most anyone. Beauty is all about how you feel, and it lies in the eye of the beholder. So if someone tries something that JB does and feels great doing it, so what? More power to them. I do not think it's healthy to see someone and want to BE them, but that's not at all how I see wanting a few recs on a look, hell, I see tons of look requests in the recs forum here, not just JB's. I admit to seeing her pics and getting the urge to break out the self tanner too, I love the look of a tan and if I can achieve it in a safe way then I see no harm in it. I think most people look great with the look of a little sun.

Just my 2 cents.

OMFG SHE IS SO FREAKING GORGEOUS!! I hate her! lol

 

[AdlersMommy22]

Tanning is part of the "recommended" look, so it is on topic.
