I bought Dermablend and know it is supposed to cover really well. The pictures show it covering red birth marks, scars etc., but it doesn't seem to provide very good coverage for me. The colour is matched well, but it doesn't seem to hide even minor perfections very well for me. I'm going to be in a wedding party and get red blotches on my neck when I'm nervous and was hoping this would cover it up, but not even close. I have very pale skin if it makes any difference. Am I doing something wrong or does this just not work for me???
Dermablend application question - what am i doing wrong???
My mom uses Dermablend. It hides EVERYTHING if applied correctly. Use the setting powder first and then apply a thin coat of the makeup. The idea is to layer the makeup so that it stays put and fully covers. It will not work in just one layer. Also, use the little spatula to scoop a little bit on. Put this bit on the palm of your hand, and rub it in a circular motion to make the foundation easier to apply. Applying this in layers with setting powder and you should get full coverage. Hope this helps!
Dermablend application question - what am i doing wrong???
I think it works for some people but not others, not anything your doing wrong. I have lt/md skin tone and it didnt cover anything for me, my friend has fair skin like you and couldnt cover anything, but other people say it covers their tattoos ect... I had mine applied professionally and nothing so I dont know, give up I guess
Reply:call dermablend and ask wut ur doin wrong my mom used that it looked a bit fake but i dunno it depends
Reply:that stuff is SO BAD FOR YOUR SKIN.
seriously.
but if all you care about is coverage... go with mac anyway. its not so... solid. haha.
Reply:Well if you apply it like normal makeup then you're doing it wrong. Dermablend is designed to be patted into the skin. You dab a sponge into it and then pat, pat, pat it onto the are you wish to cover. Add a layer of setting powder then pat some more until you get the coverage you need. It's a layering foundation. If you rub it you will rub away the coverage so don't rub. Always pat it into the skin.

Desperate for Outfit. Please help?
I have a band concert coming up and i need a new formal outfit. I have blonde hair, pale skin and green eyes. My body type is pretty slim, I'm about 5'7 and 105 pounds. Also I'm 14 so nothing too old, and its for a school function so it has to be relatively PG haha. If you could make me an outfit I would appreciate it SOO much. Thanks!
Desperate for Outfit. Please help?
With your body, im pretty sure anything would look great on you. But if youre really in need of a new outfit, i suggest going to forever21 to look at the dresses there.
BUT
forever21 is relatively espensive, so even though this may sound stupid, go to kohls (www.kohls.com) and you'll find a lot of hotttt dresses there for your concert. and the prices are way too good to be true!
Desperate for Outfit. Please help?
Well...If your in a band concert i would suggest simple but elegant... you should try forever21...they have sections of different colors and I think you will find what you like

Any proffesional make up tips/application tips etc.?
i have blue eys and blonde hair and pale skin
Any proffesional make up tips/application tips etc.?
I think having blonde hair and blue eyes you can pretty much get away with any colour...who's to say just because you have those colours you have to STICK with one colour.
For foundation on pale skin....to test for colour dab on your jawline the less noticeable the better...otherwise you will get a tacky orange line.
Once applied use a blush of pink over your cheeks to give yourself some colour or a bronzer to give yourself a tanned glow.
My best advice is to apply all make up....even foundation with a brush...it gives a flawless professional make up artisit look and that way you're protecting your skin from spreading germs on your fingers.
Any proffesional make up tips/application tips etc.?
Eyeshadow for blue eyes and blonde hair.
For blue eyes and blond hair the best looking eyeshadow colors are violets and lavenders or neutral tones. Use the violet on the lid and in the crease of the eyelid. Use the lighter color lavender above the crease to the eyebrow bone for a dramatic night look. Use natural colors for daytime.
Eyeshadow recommendation for blue eyes and blond hair: Natural tones for day and purple hue's for night!
Reply:curl your eye lashes and then put mascara on :)
and dont use foundation to make your skin darker use it to cover pimples or wateva else and use bronzer to be a bit darker :)
Reply:Go onto websites of designer makeup they usually have a tips for different complexions, the lancome sites even have video tutorials on how to apply make-up correctly.

Always apply foundation after seeing your reflection in the mirror in a natural light. The shade of the foundation should always match with the original skin tone....

I have medium length strawberry blonde hair, pale skin with freckles, and round, blue eyes. I also have an oval shaped face. Thanks!
What makeup should I wear?
dont listen to them guys! i have the same kind of skin and face and stuff. so i would put on liter makup cause if you put on darker makeup it looks really weird and all bad. and use liquid blush it looks a lot better than powder and put lighter lipstick on or lipgloss and dont put on a lot of mascara put it on 3 timeson each eyelash and for your eyelids use lighter stuff on your eyes i hope this helps you!

Reply:omg they r so rude.
try warm colors like a red or rust eye shaddow, and and maybe orange or clay colored lipstick. dont try to cover those freckles! freckles r so in. i think if u go with the warmish colors it will make ur eyes really pop too.
Reply:you put on make up to accentuate what you already have.
you put on make up to see more of your face not so we can see the make up.
you should put on make up so it doesnt look like your wearing any.

''Beauty is in the eye of the beholder'' --
No one knows actually what beauty is, how do you expect others to tell you ? Opinions differ.
Also looking at your question Long Hair might look better on one girl but look bad on the other. Its the same for the rest really. Different types of people are attracted to different characteristics. But listen you will find someone who loves you back no matter what.
Edit- Just look at how different the opinions to your questions are.
Reply:Why do you need to know? Be yourself. Long sandy brown hair with a little tan and makeup and the eyecolor does not matter but green is rare. A little wavy in the hair is nice. But that you take care of yourself means more than all this. To be confident and that you have pride in the way you look shows and is what is really sexy. Not so much as to what we like.

I need to get a makeover, which do you suggest?
Bleach my hair
Highlight my hair
Anything else
My coloring is pale skin, dirty blonde hair and light green eyes. My hair is curly and currently and inch below the shoulder when left curly. Any advice?
I need to get a makeover, which do you suggest?
Without a photo it is tough but I would think about going darker so you don't get washed out. You mention pale skin and light hair can do just that. Also you don't describe the curl. Is it tight or more wavy? Having green eyes is rare and very pretty, learn to accentuate those eyes by getting a makeup lesson from a salon pro who isn't there just to sell products. Again without seeing the shade and texture it is a guess but I think lowlights so you have less maintenance (every 2 months for a partial then a full lowlight). Another idea is to make a few consultation appointments at a couple of salons. They should be free, just check when you call and see if you get a common recommendation. Good luck.

Do you have a picture of you, then I could really help alot more...
Reply:I used to get a 2 part color... My stylist would color my whole head one darker color (chestnut) and then she would go back in and put in blonde highlights on top. It was really cute and I always got compliments! Unfortunately we've moved and I haven't found anyone as good as she was.... Good luck!
Reply:Straighten your hair and go very light brown. Cut long layers in to add movement but keep weight (to keep it straighter). It will bring out your eyes and it's a big change without stripping your hair. Also, it will grow out nicer than bleaching. Great for autumn, add red highlights -after- if you like the look.
