ok, so i know im not the only one, but i cant seem to bring myself to walk out of my house without eyeliner on. thing is, i wish/want to go without makeup since i am young (16) and i know i look good without it except for some pimples but i am working on clearing up my face completely, anyway thats besides the point. my question is how do you look amazing without makeup because i see girls doing it and i want to too! its healthier for skin and keeps you younger longer. also I tried not wearing any eyeliner once before and everyone commented on how tired i looked! so i need tips on looking good without makeup...thanks!!! =)
Bella12 answered Thursday May 29 2008, 8:25 pm: Hi, Foundations and powders on your face are terrible. they clog your pores unless you get like a 100% natural powder which is hard to find (NO CHEMICALS) anyways, make sure you find a cleanser/exfoliator that you find is good for your skin (does't irratate you, long lasting, leaves your skin feeling FRESH) Find a GOOD moisturizer. Wash your face in the morning and moisturize. If you have pimples they will go away. Drink lots of water, don't wear makeup and moisturize and you will find that skin looks clear and smooth. Now about eyeliner, I don't think its such a big deal. It's nice that you don't want to wear makeup but everybody needs a little make up. The people who you see who look absolutely STUNNING are wearing some make-up. No one is perfect. A little eyeliner and mascara go a long way. You don't need anything else. Sorry I know the point of this question was not to wear any make up but if you wanna look Beautiful with natural beauty wear some eyeliner it will bring out your eyes and its not fake. Your just enhancing your natural Beauty! [ Bella12's advice column | Ask Bella12 A Question ]
LOL_x0x answered Thursday May 29 2008, 6:31 pm: I used to be just like you. Up until recently [like 2 months ago] I never left the house without eyeliner on.
What I did, was start wearing less and less and soon, I just stopped wearing it altogether. I'd suggest trying this for yourself.
The only makeup I wear, is powder, blush, and occasionally mascara. I also wear eye shadows in enutral tones [aka light browns, tans, beige, etc.] I personally, think this look looks best, especially for summer. I know it's not wearing no makeup, but when you use minimal mamkeup like this, then it's really easy to go out without makeup and still feel comfortable if that makes sense?
Also, like somebody said, it's best to keep your skin moisterized. This prevents your skin from drying out, and looking flaky and gross.
Rachee answered Thursday May 29 2008, 4:50 pm: Just make sure your face is moizturized (so you have a nice even tone and not red cheeks and different colors and stuff.) and no acne ( which you are working on. =]). That's how the other girls do that. Make sure you lips are chapped so wear some chap stick that you can't see when you put it on. Oh, another good thing is a bright smile! =]]]]] [ Rachee's advice column | Ask Rachee A Question ]
bitterxsweet answered Thursday May 29 2008, 3:29 pm: i agree with the mineral makeup. bare minerals is kinda pricey, but alot of my friends use it and love it, and you can't tell they're wearing anything, yet their skin looks flawless. also, if you have a thing about eye make up. skip the eyeliner and just put on a thick coat of mascara on the top [and the bottom if you'd like]. it'll open your eyes up and the black will still bring out the color in your eyes to make them look more lively and less "tired."

ashhishurrrr answered Thursday May 29 2008, 3:10 pm: i Used to be the same way. of course i LOVE eyeliner to death but i like to switch it up sometimes and go for a more natural look. What i would say to do (and you can get all of this at a local drugstore.. cvs,kmart,walgreens) is to get Maybelline Mineral Powder. Its natural and it works GREAT. it covers up blemishes and its good for you skin..its really light like your not wearing any makeup at all & doesn't clog your pores like other makeup does. and its inexpensive, they also have concelear. but you can get a Free sample at this website, [Link](Mouse over link to see full location) [ ashhishurrrr's advice column | Ask ashhishurrrr A Question ]
BeFABULOUSxo answered Thursday May 29 2008, 11:15 am: I'm not quite sure what you mean about looking tired. But I do have an idea. Neutrogena and Aveeno have all these creams that rejuvinate your skin. If I were you, I'd use an exfoliator and some rejuvinating/repairing cream. It will give your face a brighter/healthier appearance.
If you still feel the need to wear make up, wear natural stuff. Use products with a lot of minerals. EX. Mineral Makeup.
