Make-up Advice:
- Liquid eyeliners need occasional practices, then it would get easier to draw. As said by pekoruto: "practise really makes perfect (or at least improvement)"
- For beginners, pencil eyeliner is advised.
- Green concealer is good for red spots and pimples.
- If you ever powder your face a shade darker or lighter than your skin tone, please remember to do the same to your neck and other exposed areas, so you wouldn't look like you're wearing a mask.
- Liquid foundation = good coverage, don't last that long/ Powder foundation = less coverage, last longer
- For natural look and also for those still rather young, try not to go too heavy on the eye make-up or lipstick, meaning light colors and minimal mascara. (unless you wish to look old)
