Make up help!

*claps* Yay I love easy ones! Okay babe... here we go. First things first-- congrats on finally getting your wig~! It's lovely.

For your foundation, make sure to moisturize your face before hand. Then, put a little foundation on the hand(add a complimentary tone if necessary...since it usually is hard to find foundation in the lighter tones Goths need! I use Loreal True Match in Cool Porcelian (01)).

Dot it over the face-on the nose, the cheeks, the chin and the temples and in between the brows.Use the tips of two fingers or a foundation brush (these look like this---> http://www.arianepoole.com/shop/images/foundation-brush.jpg )...or a makeup sponge if you prefer. Blend in the foundation. Always work from the face outwards, to avoid an accumulation of the foundation around the hairline. And make sure to blend a little down towards your neck, to avoid that scary line! You can also take the foundation over the eyelids, before you do your eye makeup-- it helps the shadows to stick better. I do this, in addition to adding a base colour (like a taupe or light shimmer) of cream shadow to make my makeup last through the day.

Moving on to your eyes!

I would not suggest trying to do BOTH orange and blue makeup. The colours work well on your wig, but you don't want to overdo it. I found this---> http://au.youtube.com/watch?v=oVVmjZsoMfQ&feature=related tutorial... which I think is a simple enough, but still cute look. If you REALLY want to add blue in there somewhere though, you could always switch out black mascara for a navy or sky mascara-- so that just when you blink the difference peeks through.

As far as your eyebrows go... take it from a girl who did the scarily-over-tweezed route... go gentle! It's SO easy to get carried away! If I were you, I'd just pluck a SLIGHT arch (follow your finger along your brow bone to figure out exactly where... it should be about 3/4ths along your eye)... and use a clear mascara (drugstore Maybelliene works well!) to keep them in place.

There! You are done and fabulous! Thanks for reading all this!

Look at our resident makeup pro! I also suggest with the eyebrows---go get them waxed at the salon (if you think you can't do it). Its only about 10 bucks here...I'm sure its not more in the UK. When you get that done, DO use the clear mascara Kasha talked about...OR you can get some eyebrow wax that his a color to it. I think a nice, even-looking brow really makes or breaks your look. That comes from filling in with some sort of color.

^I was waiting for you to see this post! (I don't have your professional expertise-- but I think I do alright! Glad to see I covered the right bases! *phew!*)

^^Haha, I finally have a few moments at my hectic job---so I can now peruse my MBs! And you know you have just as much (if not more) knowledge than any professional!

Oh...also, some false lashes would look DELISH!

^Thank you...

And ACK! How could I forget about the lashes! You could even get THOSE in blue, and kill two birds with one stone, so to speak~!

(If you do want to try your hand at it Synth, watch this tute first... there is NOTHING worse than trying to apply lashes, and getting it wrong-- and having to pick that glue off your freshly done makeup! ACK!)

How to Apply False Eyelashes

Okay, I think I'm done now. It's just too much fun to talk about-- I get carried away.

If you don't want to wax your eyebrows some places will pluck them for you. I think akasha has covered most things. I only wear foundation on my eyelids to help with trying to keep eyeshadow in place and will sometimes use concealer on the face if needed.
If you don't mind me saying you do have lovely lips so play them up with a slightly darker color.
Have a play with different colors of eyeshadow that way you'll know what colors will be good on you.Me personally, I would wear a blue eyeshadow to bring out the blue in the falls.
On the subject of fake eyelashes I saw some lovely ones the other day that had feathers on the ends. Hope I have been some help.

I'd go with waxing every time for eyebrows, it's just quicker and you get a better arch. Talking of which I'm very overdue an appointment with my waxing lady who strangely enough is not called Wendy!

Thanks for all the help kids I will try and get my eyebrows done tomorrow

I have some falsie eyelashes all lined up ready sadly they aren't blue I wish I could find some blue though. I will keep an eye out for them.

I will post pics of how it goes.

^Very nice~! Are you happy with it? That is the most important part!

very nice

I know you already finished your look but like everyone said plucking helps. Also, if you want to make your eyebrows more defined you can fill them in with some eye brow shadow (or regular eye shadow for a fast find) that matches your color. I think ghost red mentioned eyebrow wax also.

Looks good, but I think you should fill in and darken your brows a little.

Thanks alot kids!!

Although Now I am all dressed up but really nervous!!

ARGH!

I always get like this before going out... especially on in the scene. Oh dear!

I for once need makeup help!!!

Has anyone used this product before? Or ordered from this website. The price is so good, but is it good quality?

^Can't say personally.... but from first look, it looks like crap quality. I zoomed in on the eye palettes, and the shadows appear to have a decent consistency. I LOVE the colours.... but I can't speak for the quality. :\

Ya, it looks like crap, but I when I was browsing youtube makeup tutorials (I am makeup crazy) for fun, I noticed that all these people were using the that makeup pallet. Also, the people I was watching were doing a well with their makeup too.
