Go into department stores like Macy's, Nordstrom's or Sephora and ask the make-up artist to assist you. If there's a Sephora near by where you live I would recommend going there because there's a variety of brands to choose from. Ask the sales associate to show you how to apply make up and let her know that you're new. It's less awkward at Sephora because if you don't buy the make up they recommend and showed you it's easy for you to walk away. Have fun!
it's always fun to look through magazines and see what interests you. look at what color shadow works best for your eye color and things like that. have your own style.





also, a great way to LEARN and be taught how to do your makeup well is to stop by a make up store. like: Ulta, Sephora, Nordstrom, or Macy's. just tell them what you'd like to know and they'd be happy to show you the ropes.
Let me start off by saying that if you're looking for inexpensive, quality makeup, I suggest http://www.eyeslipsface.com. Nearly everything there is one dollar.





Eyeshadow:


I like getting maybelline quads. they last a long time.

I personally have lucious sorbet for my blue eyes.


The medium shade (top one showed on those quads) goes all over the lid.


Second one down (second darkest) compliments and goes in the crease.


The lightest goes all the way up to your brown bone.


Last but not least the darkest goes at the outer corner of your eye.





Blue eyes - browns and blues


Brown eyes - golds, bronzes, browns, purples.


Hazel Eyes - can pull off most any color


Green eyes - green (duh), browns





These are good rules for general eyeshadow, not just these quads.





As for eyeliner, black looks pretty good on everyone...


brown eyes should use brown, blue eyes should use navy or sky blue. eyeslipsface.com has sky blue for $1.

if your eyes are brown, purple can look good also. If your eyes are green, a dark forest green is good.





Mascara - for a more natural look (and especially if your skin is light or your eyes are brown) use brown mascara. for a more dramatic look use black. and if you want to look crazy use colored.








For blush, light pinks and browns or shimmers look good on most people.





Lip gloss - can't go wrong with clear.

Foundation - Most people don't need much foundation, especially not liquid, but... For a powder, be sure to use a brush. For liquid use a sponge or your hands. People seem to like bare minerals because it鈥檚 light on your skin and is good for you, but I havent tried it.
well first of all, what kind of makeup are you planning on using? base, powder, concealer, eyeliner, shadow, mascara, blush...? there are several tricks for each type of makeup. edit your question and tell me which kinds of makeup you would like help with (if not all) and im sure i will be able to answer your question!
