I love the colors she used, especially the lip liner. I also like the concealer trick- never thought of doing that.
However, I’m not a fan of using a red lip liner. I would stick to using a nude liner, fill it in, then apply lipstick over it so that when the lipstick starts disappearing, it doesn’t leave that weird ring around the lips. Nude liner is not as obvious as red; I don’t want to look like those girls who line their lips with a dark pencil and fill them in with light lipstick.

she never used a tissue to blot it a bit. maybe that’s old-fashioned. hm.
i’d like to see tutorials for eye makeup for people with monolids and people with really oily eyelids!!! @_@_@
I feel like I can’t do red lips because I’m redheaded. : (
But I think it’s really pretty.

want something natural? First,crushed a ginger about 2cm.Then,wipe your lips with honey and put the crushed ginger on your lips,wait until 20mins and then clean it with water.
Repeat it everyday and soon you will find your lips is red as nature.It would takes time,yet,it is much safer and cheaper.
Try it and you will feel satisfied in the end.There is no need to buy all the make up just to be beautiful.

Ladies, please stop wearing so much red lipstick, especially with blue eyeshadow. I mean ewww.

@JustMe - I always have heard to wear orange-y lipstick but I can’t seem to find one..or at least one that doesn’t look funny to me. I don’t know…I just know I need to find my perfect lipstick colour so I can stop spending so much money looking for it. : )
@Random_Goldfish@xanga - try a pinkish orangy red…i have a feeling it would go with you..you could mix up some shades on your own, using the ones you have to find your perfect shade. a little while back..i had trouble doing nude lips…i gave it a try like a year ago, and still am going strong. when u’v got a colour u like from all the mixing…that is the shade you should search for. tiny hint.:start with a pale shade and go darker with each test run. hope this helps. ciao:)
