Makeup is easy as long as you apply it right. Concealor first. Apply it then rub it with your hands so its not too ligh to dark. Then apply your eyshadow. If you put on liner first, then it will get covered by the eyeshadow. Try nuetral eyeshadow thats noticable but not too bold. The apply your liner. I allways use brown because its noticable but not too dark. Then put on mascara. Put on one coat, wait about 30 seconds then apply another. If you wait for it to dry it wont smudge or clump. Then last but not least put on lipgloss and just alittle bit of blush and youll look pretty and natural. [ Heretohelp14's advice column | Ask Heretohelp14 A Question ]

2.If you wash your face every night then it won't ruin nothing. I wear it all the time... my skin complection stays the same.
3.Buy your natural color. if you have blonde hair, use light blue eye liner and mascara. if you have dark hair, Use Black Shadowy eye liner and mascara.
Then find your color in concealer. [ lovefalls8's advice column | Ask lovefalls8 A Question ]

I'm not made of money so.. I haven't experienced the expensive side of makeup :/ So I either put on a base like concealer or foundation on my eyelid to hold the eyeshadow and then put on eyeliner. Usually it holds, some times it goes against you.
But instead of black eyeliner you can try a dark brown. It wouldn't be a noticeable smudge. What I use now, is black eyeshadow.. A makeup artist said it lasts longer, especially if you get the shadow a bit wet and apply.
Throughout the day, I always rub under my bottom eyelid to clean up the smudged parts.
If you blend well with your concealer then it shouldn't be a problem unless it's far off your skin tone.. which most likely it isn't. If you are that worried you can try foundation or a powder.. Supposedly it holds foundation & concealer on longer. You won't look like a barbie doll unless you wear tons of liquid foundation and your face looks all shiny =plastic!
blondes can pull of fierce looks, just be confident with it! maybe you'll even like it.
