Make up

Are you good at applying make up, do you enjoy it? Do you wear it often? What are your favorite brands?

I like maybelline liquid cover-up and eyeliner. Eyeshadow, I'm not picky with, though maybelline has some nice eyeshadow too. Not really a lipgloss girl, since I have an oral fixation and always need to be chewing or biting something (gum or fingernails D=), so it always wears off, but I like the lipgloss fruit spritzers that Rihanna endorses.

The way I apply eyeliner is pretty unique, I think. I do top and bottom eyelids, but in a way that's hard to explain. I wish I was better at applying eyeshadow, but I'm ace at color mixing. :flounder:

If you're a guy, do you enjoy wearing make up? It's so cute. :jess:

I've had makeup put on about half a dozen times in my life and I've never enjoyed it. I like my skin being clear and uncovered and whenever I have it on I look forward to being able to wash it off.

Plus, the smell. There's something about the smell of makeup that turns my stomach.

I've never smelt anything weird about make up until I got a new type of cover up. It was on the cheap end, only about 5 dollars, covergirl. It smelt like ammonia. I had to throw it away, it was awful. :x

I don't feel secure going out without makeup on. My skin's no longer spotty + horrible (thank god) but it just makes me look so much better. Also, makeups fun. I think I've gotten good at makeup simply through practise. Really though, I know people who have gone to have their makeup done "professionally" by people at Bobbi Brown (which isn't the best quality to be fair, although I love their brushes) and they look pretty awful, and I think "I could have done a much better job on you than that."

I tend to focus more on the eyes than the mouth. It jsut doesn't wear off as quickly. I do focus on the lips sometimes, but I just find the eyes more fun.

All my makeup always smells fine. Were you using cheap stuff, Mulley?

I totally agree with you, scrumply, on the professional stuff. When I got it professionally done for prom, my make up was way over the top. The eyeshadow was way too dark for my pale skin, and the cover up didn't really do much. The lipgloss they put on was also much too dark for my skin. I think given the supplies she used, I could have done a better job. xD

I don't like the smell of makeup either. I'm not good at applying it; I don't own any; and powders make me itchy and red.

I think that blush is pretty on girls, though, when it's not overused.

I want yummy strawberry lip gloss. :ichigo:

I don't wear make up normally. I'll wear it on a night out so like 4 times a year :P but I NEVER wear foundation or anything that covers my face completely. I'll wear eye liner, mascara and perhaps some eye shadow but that's it. To be honest, I don't really know how to wear make up, i never have done and I think I would look weird if I wore it on a regular basis. If I could do it well though I probbaly would :D :D :D

Smile and Be happy :love:

One of the themes was "career day." May dad works for the Ohio Gas Company, so he used to spend a lot of time digging around in the ground working on the gas lines (he has a more office-y job there now). I dug up one of his old jumpsuits and used some of Rammstein's "secret stage makeup" to make it look like I was covered with dirt, and I loved every minute of it =D

Flake: That'S a secret that will be revealed now!
Flake: We smear instant coffee all over ourselves.
Flake: No makeup holds as long.
Flake: And no makeup smells as good.

Does that count?

Oh, I do "wear" Carmex regularly, if that counts.

I don't wear make up ever. I'm just too lazy to bother with it every day, and it seems like something I should use almost always or almost never :P

Make up bugs me. I like think "flaws" and natural colors are more to my tastes.

To play along, I am ace at doing my own halloween make up, or other peoples. I am a bit slow, but I do enjoy myself doing it. Hope that counts. :/

I just wanted to quote that out of context because it makes me chuckle. :D

I wear concealer for eye shadows and whenever I get a zit. Blush sometimes to cover the concealer up because it's not exactly the same color as my skin. :p That's it.

I wore eyeliner for a while last year but then I realized it doesn't look good on me. xD Or maybe I was applying it wrong. In any case I don't wear it anymore and tend to go for the natural look, minus blemishes. ^_^ I still have an urge to pop on some eyeliner some nights when I'm going out but I lost all my pencils so... too lazy.
