Ria: Makeup YouTube videos are best to learn makeup for beginners. Try Instagram few seconds videos on eye makeup and contorting.
Fransisco: I have a problem in keeping my tinted moisturizer and pencil eyeliner from melting. How do most girls have that perfectly done and even after an hour, nothing's smudged?
Jazz: I wear contacts for events and forget to put them in sometimes... Biggest mistake when you have to put them in after :(
Sapna: 4 :6 applies to me lol good article
st_cruz: @Fransisco Set it with powder! Pencil liner will easily smudge if you don't set it, so after you put it on, set it with black shadow ( or whatever color matches). Same with a tinted moisturizer/foundation, you should use a setting powder OR even a setting spray to help it last (:
Erin: I wish I knew how to wear makeup other than mascara and some powder. I literally jammed my mascara brush into my eye so bad last week I had to wear a patch for the day.
Tiffany: That's meeeeeee
Nichole: Love to achieve I meant
Bettina: I have lipstick problem. Any tips
Aayat: For lipstick to stay on longer apply a layer or 2. Blot and then reapply a second time..repeat if needed once more. This works for me. Creamy drugstore lipsticks tend to fade. So make them dry by using powder(loose or pressed) on ur lips first..
