Reverie 26 March 17, 2012 Share March 17, 2012 This goes out to guys and girls as I personally find make up on guys extremely attractive. There is not one person who can't benefit from eyeliner and if you think you don't suit make up you are doing it wrong. Fact. So how much make up do you wear on a daily basis? I do a bit of part time work as a make up artist so I go pretty (very) full out every day, it's really a continuation of me. It's not that I'm insecure without makeup; I'm perfectly happy with my appearance but fashion means a lot more than that to me. So I wear foundation, concealer, powder, contour, highlight, blush and full on lips and eyes. Unless I'm covering my brows to make them a crazy shape I don't do brows because mine are thick, nicely shaped and black fortunately. I don't wear lashes very often either for the same reason. I really like to go crazy with make up, like all over liner, coloured mascara, bright orange or blue or purple or multi tonal lips. I love glitter as well and leopard print eyes. I wear this kind of thing to college... I'll definitely try and come up with some MLP inspired looks soon, if anyone wants tutorials on a particular pony or something please do send me requests 2 harpist. singer. make up artist. click for music and musings. x reverie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marcato 2,143 March 17, 2012 Share March 17, 2012 Holy crap thats a lot of make up! Ever considered being a make up artist? I don't use make up at all except in plays and movies. Basically whenever i am involved in a stage production or TV show/movie is the only time i ever use it. ~Relax and enJOY life.

XXVYNIKK 145 March 17, 2012 Share March 17, 2012 Eye liner, purple/black nails, and some to hide grease, Only if I really feel like it. It's the weekend, so no make up for me. ^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marshmallow 1,137 March 17, 2012 Share March 17, 2012 Nothing. But I'm a guy so I guess that explains it ^^ "There was me, that is Pinkie, and my three droogs, that is Rarity, Rainbow, and Fluttershy, and we sat in the Ponyville Milkbar trying to make up our rassoodocks what to do with the evening."

DrOphthalmos 497 March 17, 2012 Share March 17, 2012 You remind me of my friend Xenia - make-up is her passion and she started a make-up company: http://www.limecrimemakeup.com/ Yes, I do think it is hilarious she is using a unicorn for her logo. I think make-up is awesome and I love the two pictures you posted. As for myself, being goth and all, I had a girlfriend put some eyeliner on me - the consensus was that I have eyes that don't really need it and that's fine by me. For some reason, when she was trying to put it on, I kept laughing and she had a hard time doing it right. I have ticklish eyes!

That is bloody amazing, it's not readily accessible here in the UK but it is really fantastic make up at a great price point. Lipsticks have brilliant pigmentation. And guy liner is extremely sexy. I have attacked all my previous boyfriends with eyeliner and often full on eyeshadow and david bowie stripes as well.

Marcato 2,143 March 17, 2012 Share March 17, 2012 You are a guy and you watch ponies. Saying guy = no make-up is as biased as saying guy = no ponies! WELL SAID. But yeah guys don't normally wear make up anyways. (Unless you are goth.) I'm not saying its bad if you are a guy that wears make up, but that most guys just don't because it isn't their style. 1 ~Relax and enJOY life.

Unfortunately, I'm allergic to getting up early for school so I don't have much time to do anything else. You should try a gel eyeliner, it stays on waaaaaaaay better than pencil, especially on the waterline, and is much easier to use than liquid. I guess the one good thing about being an insomniac is that I often have at least an hour to do my makeup in the mornings. I've also got doing makeup, including really technical liner, on the tube/bus down to a tee. I'm a guy So no makeup. Personally, I find guys who have the guts to wear make up despite social stigma far more attractive than guys who don't. Also, eyeliner & mascara look amazing on everyone. 1 harpist. singer. make up artist. click for music and musings. x reverie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is bloody amazing, it's not readily accessible here in the UK but it is really fantastic make up at a great price point. Lipsticks have brilliant pigmentation. I am glad you like it! The nice thing about living in Manehattan is that you meet very interesting people. I met Xenia through Voltaire. Voltaire was trying to get a side project going called The Oddz and Xenia was his keyboardist. Here they are performing (I took this pic myself): The guy in stripes immediately behind her is Mark, her now husband. Together they had their own musical project called Sky Salt. Xenia also tried a solo music career calling herself Doe Deere. I believe Xenia is a very talented musician. In the end though, her passion for fashion won out and she started LimeCrime. I believe she attended FIT (Fashion Institute of Technology). She has enjoyed great success. I guess my point in telling the story is that make-up can be a great thing, it sure worked out for her! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Viscra Maelstrom 3,718 March 17, 2012 Share March 17, 2012 i've pondered about how purple lipstick would look on me. that's probably the only thing i want to try, though, as i generally see make-up as a waste of money, but hey, whatever makes you happy, do it!
