Makeup tips and reviews http://www.justmakeupartists.com/forums Hiya, I am wearing a red bridesmaids dress at my friend's wedding and the plan is to wear red lipstick as well.  I am very blonde and pale and not used to wearing bright colours. I am worried that a red lipstick will look to bright and tarty on me. Any advice on which red lipstick suits blondes?   Thanks, Faye x Sun, 28 Nov 2010 16:02:41 +0000 http://www.justmakeupartists.com/posts/what-red-lipstick-for-blondes http://www.justmakeupartists.com/posts/what-red-lipstick-for-blondes No matter what type of eye shadow I wear whether cream, powder or liquid it always creases after about 2 hours. My skin is quite oily, any advice?

I also get breakouts easily. Bare Escentuals are meant to be good but are expensive – has anyone tried them?  Mon, 29 Nov 2010 16:57:43 +0000 http://www.justmakeupartists.com/posts/best-foundation-for-oily-skin http://www.justmakeupartists.com/posts/best-foundation-for-oily-skin I have acne scars has anyone with the same problem found any skincare products to have helped?

I have quite uneven nails and however I brush it on it always looks lumpy on me. There must be a correct way to do it!

They are much darker and more noticeable than most other peoples, any one with the same problem found a concealer which actually conceals?

I am not a makeup artist but I do have a small insight into makeup as I worked for Benefit for 3 months. I keep asking the ladies ono on the counters in House of Frasers where i am from but I am still clueless. So here goes. All comments welcome.   My look is pale skin, blonde hair, blue eyes. I like to wear little black dress's, nice shoes etc. Lately i wanted to ditch the fake tan and let my natural skin show through. I see that Nicola Roberts does it well and i want to be able to pull it off. I started by using mac face and body but when you took a picture off me my face looked too pale and shinny. And my body looked like a 12 year old ghost. I want my makeup to be perfect. Pink cheecks, red lips. Dramatic eye liner and mascara. And i want that light pinky look on my arms and legs too. So I am pale but not white. I am not sure if i am explaining myself properly.   Any advice welcome   xxx Fri, 18 Nov 2011 10:06:44 +0000 http://www.justmakeupartists.com/posts/how-to-achieve-the-perfect-nicola-roberts-look http://www.justmakeupartists.com/posts/how-to-achieve-the-perfect-nicola-roberts-look Look out for my next feature coming soon, all you need to keep cool in the summer sun xx Sun, 08 Apr 2012 10:04:29 +0000 http://www.justmakeupartists.com/posts/summer-skin-savers http://www.justmakeupartists.com/posts/summer-skin-savers
