Hmm, can't remember if I answered these questions or not xd
But I'm bored so either way I'm doing it anyway. emotion_awesome
❀ Have you ever tried a makeup product that did not work out for you? Why not?
oh yes, too many to count. Most of it being that goopy s**t liquid foundation. But that could just be a problem with my face or skin- my skin gets SO friggin dry like a damn desert yet so friggin oily, its ridiculous. (and yes, I've tried every type of moisturizer/ toner/ make up combo I could get my hands on to combat the problem and so far....nothing has worked). Its why I use expensive Bare Minerals, which I am still NOT happy with but works the best so far.
❀ Has anyone ever attempted to criticize your cosmetic choices?
Yes- my best friend laughed her a** off when I attempted a sexy, smokey eye. I looked like I'd been punched in the eye instead. emotion_facepalm
❀ What is one aspect of your face that you absolutely adore?
My eyelashes. I'm a natural redhead, and my eyelashes are red, but they're really long, so when I wear mascara, I don't need false eyelashes. Its about my only facial feature that I do like lol. Good thing this question doesn't ask what I don't like- I've got a laundry list LOL.

That's silly! No one should make fun of someone else for not wearing more makeup. Glitter is, indeed, awesome. smile
Thanks for the tutorial recommendations! biggrin
Lillielle -pokes head in- I like glitter. eek
People have criticized me all the time for my lack of makeup, the only things I really wear is lip gloss. If I want to be fancy, then I might wear eye shadow and mascara. And probably glitter. Because glitter. emotion_awesome
It's mainly been because laziness in the past, although now it's also because I want to look as androgynous as possible to ease my dysphoria, so... emotion_donotwant
Also, as far as makeup tutorials go...I love her hair-dye tutorials more, and this one has some hilarious glitches (warning for flashy, possibly seizure-inducing bits, but Day to Night Makeup Tutorial.
Oh, and this one. emotion_kirakira Winged Eyeliner Tutorial.
...I really like her. whee

I've never tried Bare Minerals foundation, but my friend swears by it. Do you find that the oiliness and dry combination in your skin is on the same areas, or in different ones (i.e. dry nose/mouth, oily forehead)? Also, have you noticed a trend based on weather, water consumption, food, or hormones/that time of the month? Because it could be any of those,if that's the case.
TMI time: During my time of the month, my skin is clearest. What.
As far as the smokey eye thing: It's definitely a challenge, but there are many fool-proof tutorials that are almost a challenge to screw up and it's a great skill to have (especially if the winged eyeliner is super hard for you to to do, which can be a nice replacement). Quick smokey eye: link! Classic smokey eye: link!
I totally relate to you on the long eyelashes thing! Mine curl nicely, mascara almost never wears them down or makes them smaller, they're black and healthy and long. Great job, genetics. You did well on my lashes.

SpyFoxy Hello everyone. I was wondering if I could get some advice about skin care here. I have been looking for a really gentle facial cleanser as my skin is extremely sensitive. All the products that I have tried so far has either made my skin red, made my acne worse, or left my skin with a burning sensation. I'm not sure if I'm allergic to certain chemicals or what could be causing the symptoms. But I was wondering if you have any products that you could recommend? I have tried products from Philosophy, First Aid Beauty, and Shiseido. Thanks in advance for any advice. I'd really appreciate it.
Oh no! Really? Shiseido hasn't work for you? A couple of my friends swear by their extra gentle clenser. I'm surprised it hasn't worked well for you sad . It sounds like you've tried them all but have you tried Neutrogena's ? They're probably the cheapest brand you've looked at thus far but if nothing else works, I'd talk to a dermatologist. They'd know best biggrin . |

Hi! Sorry for taking so long to respond.
I use Clinique's products because they're hypoallergenic, reliable, and relatively inexpensive when compared to some other brands on the Market. I also use DHC's Deep Cleansing Oil to remove my makeup before washing it with a Clinique cleanser; it does wonders in removing my makeup gently.

Have you ever considered the possibility of purchasing the MAC Face and Body Foundation in White to mix with the lightest drugstore foundation you can find? The MAC stuff is pricey, but if you're only mixing a bit into your foundation with every application, it'll definitely last more than a month. If not, I'm sure that there are some cheaper white foundations out there.
As for your concealer, I think that it might also have to do with your application of the concealer; then again, I don't know how you do it, so perhaps I'm wrong! You want to apply it in a triangle under your eye and onto your cheekbone. This is something I learned only recently.

❀ Have you ever tried a makeup product that did not work out for you? Why not?
Too many to count! Mostly concealers and foundations... I don't really have $40+ to shell out every month to get one pale enough for my skin tone, and I'm not even THAT pale.
I'm currently using a Rimmel London concealer that's ~about~ the correct shade. I just wish there was one lighter so that I can actually hide my dark circles!
I look like I have perpetual black eyes.
❀ Has anyone ever attempted to criticize your cosmetic choices?
From "you wear too little" to "you wear too much," I've heard it all. *rolls eyes*
All that matters is that I like how I look!
❀ What is one aspect of your face that you absolutely adore?
Urm... Huh. I have an intense love/hate relationship with my eyebrows, so I've got to say the length of my lashes.
At my last job I had several women ask me where I had my eyelash extensions done... sweatdrop
My cheekbones are okay, too.

Ooo, bees! That sucks. gonk
I totally feel you on the climate thing. I live in the Southern USA, so it's hot and humid here for pretty much half the year. I make sure to buy long-wearing stuff and powder up, but sometimes, at the end of the day, I look and feel super cakey and gross! Air conditioning is my friend.
I actually need to go get my eyebrows done professionally at some point this summer. I haven't done that in a long time, and it would be nice to have a professionally-made shape to maintain for a few weeks.
Violette Cielle ooh new questions ❀ Have you ever tried a makeup product that did not work out for you? Why not? Umm i bought some cheap lip gloss that attracted bees once when i wore it lol. ❀ Has anyone ever attempted to criticize your cosmetic choices? It's usually that i'm not wearing enough make up, but it doesn't bother me, i don't like heavy make up, it's uncomfortable and i live in a hot climate and i get sweaty easily, so light or no make up works for me. ❀ What is one aspect of your face that you absolutely adore? Hmm, I guess my lips? And my eyebrows when i actually go to the salon to get them neatened up haha.
