Re: went on a makeup trial today.......

Well.... overall I think it's good... but I think you need some more concealer under your eyes. A lighter shade than the foundation would be in.

Maybe some more lip gloss? The second pic looks like you have some on but the first two look like you had it on but it wore off.

Do you normally wear make-up? I like the natural colors... but it might be fun to play with other colors. I'm thinking pink and plum colors. Maybe even some light purple shades. They would compliment your hair nicely.

Those are my honest suggestions. It's really not bad at all... I like it.

I had the trial with Andrea from L o l a loves makeup.com
She's really nice! I think she did a great job, but I never wear this much makeup, so i think i need to get used to it.

the gloss may have worn off by that pic.........lol it was like the 50th picture i took.
You think more concealer? I have dark circles so you might be right. Do you think I look too pale though?

I a trial with another person tomorrow, so maybe I'll ask her to do some color.

Re: went on a makeup trial today.......

also, have them use a strong long lasting lipstick on you! i noticed mine from my last trial stayed on for hours before i had to reapply! which was a great touch

Re: went on a makeup trial today.......

I don't think you look too pale at all. But I can see circles under your eyes. What the MUA should do is put a light colored concealer on under your eyes only... it should be lighter than the foundation... then she should put the foundation on your whole face... and blend it into the concealer color.

I do make-up on people.... just so you don't think I'm a know it all! ha ha!

I think you might like some of the plum colors... but if you don't normally wear make-up def tell her that, so she knows not to go too dark. Otherwise, if you ask for plum she will immediately think dark... so say natural but with some plum colors, etc.

Re: went on a makeup trial today.......

KerriJohnS Posted: Mar 03, 2009 03:08 PM

Re: went on a makeup trial today.......

Actually... your coloring is very nice. The cheeks and the rest of your face has a very nice color. Definatley not too pale!

Re: went on a makeup trial today.......

I think you look very pretty!

But I agree that you need more concealer and some work with your foundation, because it's not even in some places. And the only reason why I'm bringing this up is because it was the same issues I had with her on my own trial, so it seems like it's an area that she still needs to work on.

Re: went on a makeup trial today.......

WOW!!! I think you look INCREDIBLE- look at those eyes!!! Gorgeous!!!

The only thing is, I would do some color on the lip. Even if it's light, I think you need something. If you had run-of-the-mill eyes, maybe you could go more natural on the lips, but your eyes and eyebrows are INSANE, and I think you may need a little lip color to balance it out.

Other than that, I would BOOK IT- the eyes!! THE EYES!!!

Re: went on a makeup trial today.......

NO TAN!!! You do NOT need a tan!! Your skin is gorgeous. NOOOOOOOO TAN!!

Re: went on a makeup trial today.......

Ok here are some pics for you.....

The first one is blue... now this I am posting not for the color... but for the application.

The second pic is a really nice light purple shade you might like.

The third and fourth are VERY dark... but the inside shadow color (towards the inner corner) is in that family... I would do a MUCH lighter shade of those colors for you. Keeping it light would be key though because you don't normally wear a lot of make-up and you don't want to feel like you look like a clown.
