alright so i get a lot of questions about how i do my make up and i just want to get this written down…

Trust me on these, friends, my mom is a make up artist.

Foundation/Face make up:

1. Moisturize. Put on a good face lotion every night, it will help with acne, dryness, all sortsa yucky stuff.
2. Primer. You can buy good primers at MAC, Sephora, ect. Important if you’re wearing liquid foundation. Spread over forehead, nose, and chin, if not you’re entire face.
3. Liquid Foundation. MAKE SURE IT’S YOU’RE SHADE. DO NOT TRY TO GO WITH A TANNER SHADE, BECAUSE THAT’S DUMB. Seriously, you’ll look blotchy and disgusting. Try to get a mouse, those I have found to work best. You do NOT need the expensive kind! I’ve had tons and never noticed a huge difference. Just please pick your shade. It should blend right in with your skin. No oompa loompas please. Try to apply with a sponge, you can pick these up almost anywhere. I’ve tried brushes and they don’t work as well and create lines. Spread it evenly over your face and blend it at the neck to avoid a makeup line.
4. Blush. Pick a cute shade and NEVER GO OVER BOARD. YOU ARE NOT A FUCKING PORCILINE DOLL. Blend from your apples of your cheeks to your hairline in a diagonal strainghtish line.
5. Bronzer. Go light, again, no oompa loompin’. Blend from right above your eyebrows to just below your blush in a big C formation. Make sure its not that heavy. This will make your face look a bit slimmer and bring attention to the eyes.

Now Onto Eye Make Up!!!

1. Use an eye shadow primer before beginning. It just keeps your makeup from smudging and fading later in the day.
2. Try to stick with three colors in the same color shades, like silver+light blue+dark blue, pink+light purple+darker purple, ect. It’s all about having good taste. Don’t go tranny and pick like Yellow, Hot pink, and Neon Blue. No. Bad.
3. Take a pale white/pink shade before everything and spread lightly under your eyebrows (make sure to brush and pluck those things), this highlights the brow and just makes you look like a fancy little bitch. Also spread over the entire eye area.
4. Take your lightest color and spread over your eyelid (THAT MEANS STOP AT YOUR EYE CREASE, DON’T PULL A TRANNY LOOK. I MEAN IT.) Spread from the inner eye to the other end, not going above the crease EVER. 
5. Take the middle shade and blend it from the outer corner of the eye along the crease to about half your eye, go the same length along the lash line. Make it kinda look like a Pacman, and then blend it really well with a blending brush. Again, never go far above the crease. Try to fill in the outer corner, it doesn’t need to be like two lines, it should be thick and grow thinner.
6. Take the darkest color and blend it about half as far as you did the second darkest one. After all this is done, use a blending blush to make sure there are no hard lines(unless you want them, but they’re kinda fugly). 
7. Next take a eyeliner brush and smudge it in some black eyeshadow. I never EVER use pencils for eyeliner because they’re just plain shit. All of them. Don’t argue with me. Find yourself an eyeliner brush, it will be your best fucking friend. Run black on your upper water line (under your eyelashes), it may sting at first but it takes some getting used too and it makes your eye lashes look a million times longer. Then make a straight, very thin line from your outer to inner eye along the top of the lashes. From here feel free to make the line thicker towards the outer eye. Keep in mind that you are always trying to make you eyes look further out and bigger. Next, connect the top line at the outer corner of the eye with another line along the bottom. I like to go about 1/3 of the way on the bottom, because going all the way doesn’t look good on me. Spread along your bottom water line if you like it like that or want to go extra dark and sexy lookin’.
8. Mascara! This is important. Mascara is bipolar, it has to be applied fast (so it doesn’t dry, thus stopping its ability to get any longer) and because a lot of girls use to little and some use too much. Don’t EVER go clumpy, thats just disgusting. Try and make them as long as possible, and fix the occasional clump with a safety pin or earring. I use like three mascaras because my eye lashes are weird, but feel free to try it too. If you lashes are short, buy some eye lash extending serum. It works!!! My mom used it because she pulled hers off from stress. I LOVE Cover Girl Lash blast, its great all around and as a base mascara. I then usually use falsies, because its a bit more liquidy and will clump on its own, but used over another good mascara it adds a lot of length! NEVER EVER EVER EVER USE WATER PROOF. EVER. DO YOU HEAR ME? EVER!!!! It destroys your lashes. Try to order an eye lash dye! I use it over the summer, its a thin black liquid you apply like a mascara and it lasts for five days! It’s awesome, and the only con is that it doesn’t add any length, just darkens.
