Too much makeup?
I am from Australia. A boy I know recently asked me "how much makeup do you wear!?" in a "you wear so much makeup" sort of way. I wear tinted moisturizer, concealer for under my eyes, I curl my top eyelashes and put a bit of mascara on, put black eyeliner on my tightline and some face powder and sometimes a bit of bronzer and that's about it. It might sound like a lot but it's pretty light makeup. I don't pack on the tinted moisturizer either. Not many girls in my grade wear makeup. I would like my makeup to look natural, as if I'm not wearing any, and I don't know how!! Are there any tips or drugstore makeup products which are good for that? Thanks!

try a foundation thats closer to your natural skin tone and be sure to blend it down into your neck so that it matches. Also remember that your skin tone can change with the seasons so you wont always need to use the same foundation or concealer until the bottle is gone if your skin is turning lighter or darker with the sun.
also be CAREFUL with any kind of powders, they can become more noticeable is you have fine hairs on your face, making the hair more noticeable and the make more obvious when in fact you want the opposite effect.

Some girls don't really need makeup and IMO make up or too much just makes it worse or that they are trying too hard. Try experimenting just using a little. I'm sure you can find make up guides for people who want a more natural look.

Try using a light brown liner on the top of your lid and a little bit of white on the bottom. Black can be super harsh and make the look less natural. White on your water line can also open up your eye and make you look more awake. Instead of using bronzer, you could try using a powder foundation a few shades darker than your skin tone to gain the same effect with less intensity. I don't know how much concealer you use, but a little goes a long way. Happy makeup hunting!
