Do I need expensive makeup?

I now have a skincare routine and wonder if i need to really go to high end cosmetics. Also. I see all the beauty videos and all the looks are dramatic. How do I get a complete everyday look? i'm not shy and love color, but want to look great not clownish. - MarkDo I need expensive makeup?
For everyday: work, errands, etc.


1] shape and fill in brows. Recommend you get professional shaping first.


2] curl and mascara lashes


3] a little blush or tinted moisturizer


4] lip color


5] earrings! I know they are not makeup, but they help your face look 'finished'.


6] concealer -


a] dab on a bit direct over red area


b] blend edges, not middle


c] gently brush translucent powder over area to set it


I have never used anything but drugstore makeup/skin care, and have great skin. [ Cover Girl, Maybelline, L'oreal, Revlon,


Aveeno, Olay, Neutrogena, Clearasil ]


These are the BASICS - get good at them, then you can branch out to:


a] liners - thin line along lashlines only! Start with a crayon pencil, like Cover girl or Physician's formula


b] shadows - a color that contrasts with your, but also complements [ not matches! ] your outfit.


Ex: if you have light blue eyes, wear greens; grays; aqua, smoke, teal, or navy blues; browns; or purples.Do I need expensive makeup?
I really love Mary Kay - the products are inexpensive (I used Clinique before MK) and for 5 years I am addicted to Mary Kay. Their colors are beautiful %26amp; they do not test on animals :-))





Make up and Colors:


You can go to www.marykay.com for a free virtual make over - upload your picture and play with makeup. Its Great! Suggestions for a natural look depends on your skin tone, etc. For Ivory/ Beige Skin you can use: Tawny lipstick %26amp; Starry Gloss; eyes: vanilla eyecicle with a hazelnut midtone and bronze eyeliner and black mascara (a must!) blush you can use a bronzer or Cinnamon Stick cheek Color.


Bronze Skin: eyes: Silky Caramel %26amp; Chocolate kiss with Deep Brown Eyeliner and Mascara; lips: Rich cocoa lipstick and beach bronze lip gloss; for the cheeks: bronzer or Bold berry cheek color.





You can buy products from Mary Kay consultants or from www.touchofpinkcosmetics.com - I like touch of pink because its 50% off or more and they don't charge tax (if you live in IL, you pay taxes) and there is free shipping on orders over $100.





Skincare:


I use the TimeWise Skincare line which has a 3-in-1 cleanser, day solution, night solution and moisturizer (it comes for normal-dry skin or combination to oily). I also use a blemish control toner to prevent any breakouts.








I hope this helps! Good Luck
you dont need overly expensize makeup use covergirl or avon or somthing like that. use black eyeliner on the bottom of your eyes %26amp; use mascara %26amp; then for eye shadow use a pink or purple or brown. if u dont want it to look dramatic then dont put it up to your eyebrow stay around the crease of your eye. hope i helped
If your skin is sensative, you might want to spend a little more on your foundations and stuff, just to make sure it won't clog your pores or irritate your skin. But eye makeup is as simple as picking out colors you like. I have everything from MAC, Sephora, and Benefit, to N.Y.C and Sally Girl... Try several kinds. You'll find a brand that suits you.
Are you a guy? Jw, because of your avatar. Ahaha.


I use Clinique. Its not very high end, but its high quality and is great for all skin types. If you want more information about high end makeup,
