No matter what I do to it it just lays there - I look like one of the girls from the hippy days - flat straight and no matter how hard I try it always parts down the middle. <br /><br />I wear make up maybe two or three times a year. I have it, I kind of know the basics of applying it. <br /> <br />I think the trick with make-up, for reformed tomboys like us, is to go for as natural as possible. Lip tint, but not necessarily lip-stick (unless you're going out for the night).... I forgo blushers, bronzers, and foundation because I dont' know how to apply the first two (and i look stupid in blush) and the last always makes me break out. <br /><br />I have porcelin skin... I'm so transluscent you can see the veins in my face. So I will wear a porceline pressed powder when I want to cover those up. I use a bit of black eye liner and a black mascara. <br /><br />If I wear eye-shadow its a beige and brown mix, and only on my lids, not all the way to my brows the way they like to do it at the makeup counters.<br /><br />But... yeah. With all of that... I still spend 99% of my days with my hair pulled back in a braid and my face bare. So don't worry, you're not alone.<br /><br />:)Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03459531843513964676noreply@blogger.com
