I need help with applying makeup....and im about 15 years old i apply makeup but it dosent look all that great

I would say the biggest thing would be not to put too much on. Eyeliner looks terrible if you put too much on.





Also make sure the makeup is new, if its not it makes you break out.I need help with applying makeup....and im about 15 years old i apply makeup but it dosent look all that great
Hey! I know what you mean... when you first start to put on makeup it is hard to get the hang of. It all depends on what kind of makeup you want to wear. If you want to wear COVER UP or FOUNDATION, make sure it matches your skin perfectly. You want to make it blend into your skin so you dont have a line from where you have makeup and where you dont. It is an unflattering and unnatural line. If you would like to wear BLUSH do not put it on your cheeks. You should put it on your cheek bones, nose, and a bit on your forehead and chin... but NOT TOO MUCH! mainly put it on your cheek bones to start. If you want to do eyeshaddow, i have many tips for you: 1. dont try to match your eye color. It will make your eyes look dull. If you contrast it then your eyes will stand out and look brighter. 2. Dont try to match your shirt color. It can sometimes be pulled off but sometimes your shirt is just too bright or too crazy to match. 3. Less is more. Literally.. If you want to wear EYELINER, put it on as little as possible. If you put it on thick or all over you will look tired - and possibly scary! If you want to wear MASCARA, put it on but try not to get it to clump. Also, for the first 20 seconds or so after you put it on, try not to blink so the mascara wont rub off or your eyelids. Lastly, if you want to wear stuff on your lips, i suggest wearing lipgloss. With your age, you dont want to wear anything too drastic. Well I hope this has helped! Good luck and remember that your never covering up your face's flaws - just enhancing your face's good points!I need help with applying makeup....and im about 15 years old i apply makeup but it dosent look all that great

Almost any cosmetician who works at a makeup counter in a large store will do a makeover for you. It will be free but they will expect you to be at least one item. Ask them about cost before you get it done

It might be a little bit ghetto and she does talk a lot but they are really great vids.


4.Practice!


If you are ever bored. Just practice applying makeup. It is a fun way to pass the time.
Ok the VERY best videos you can watch are Amy Bejamins. She is the BEST makeup person ever!!!!!!!!!! Go to youtube.com and type in Amy B. Click on her videos and the ones where shes doing it on herself are better in my opinion. She is asian, long brown hair, gorgeous, and has an aussie accent! :)
I personally think at a young age you don't really need a lot of makeup. I'm aroundyour age too, and I just wear lots of mascara and curl it instead of wearing loads of eyeliner. I think eyeliner is risky because it can actually make your eyes look smaller if you wear too much of it. Wearing a eyeliner on the top of your eyes only is a good way to brighten and enlarge your eyes. Colored lip gloss is my personal favorite... just make sure not to have a huge brown goop on your lips because that doesn't look so appealing. a light hint of blush can help brighten your face too.





If you prefer to do something more than that, you should go to beauty stores such as MAC, Sephora, etc. and ask them for advice :]





hope that helped!
GO TO MERL NORMAN IN THE MALL AND THEY WILL TEACH U
Go to one of your friends or the people at the mall or even your mom or if you have a sister they'd work too =] The trick to wearing make-up is to make it look like you're not wearing it at all. Don't learn to put on loads of eyeliner becuase it makes you look trashy with too much. With mascara just kinda go over your eye lashes. For founmdation make sure you really even it out and spread it out. When i first learned to put on makeup I put on a lot of foundation and it made me look terriable becuase i didn't put on the right ammound and i didn't rub it in and even it out.


Good luck =]
