Do you have any friends that are good at applying make-up etc?
I find that the make-up artists in the department stores just want you to buy as many products as possible therefore you walk out the shop wearing eyeliner, mascara, eyeshadow, blusher, lippy, lip liner etc etc. therefore looking indeed like a drag queen!
That's what I'm scared of 
I had the option to get a make-up artist to come and do my make-up for me on the wedding day but I just had visions of having layers and layers of make-up slapped on me so I thought getting some hints and then doing it myself would be the best option.Sil will you hurry up and take your course then you can be my make-up artist
I doubt we can share make up
we are oposite in skin, eyes and hair
What is the best mascara brand??
I have tried so many brands and I still haven't found one I am totally happy with
At the min i'd prob say lancome - the fatale one. I want to try the new YSL one next its called everlong....
I noramlly use Rimmel, Max Factor, L'oreal for day but I am after a nice dramatic one for night/going out.

I always used to use liquid but prefer a pencil one now! Got a Barry M one which is really good!
I'd also say a gel one is better than liquid
Guerlain is a good one bit pricey though!Is the Lancome one really dramatic??

I used a really good liquid one from Bourjois but I want one that lasts for ages and looks quite neat looking. Also a steady hand is needed
Whats the difference between gel and liquid?
I have a good pencil from No7 It has a smudger on the end for the smoky look eyes but I too scared to try it yet
The thing I hate most is when people I know say something like "oh, youve got make-up on!".....I hate that! Looking different and not yourself is not what I think make-up is for!
God, I sound like Im a frigging make-up artist or something when I dont actually have a clue!
I´ll shut up! But you get what Im bangin on about¿! Ruby & Millie / Stila have some really nice make-up which I think is nice for the summer I find.

Yeah as in you usually look dog rough
Yeah its really good bit of a funny brush but great when you get used to it!
Or when they say 'you look tired' i.e you looke sh1te!!!
I get that all the time at work, and then sit there thinking all day I must look a right state!
I would never say that to someone (even if it was true)
Babs you are having the same dilemma I did. To have someone else do my make up or not. Years ago I had a make-up lesson and colours thing at Dickins & Jones which was great and the charge is redeemable against any products you buy. They also use all products so you are stuck with one particular brand.
For the wedding I had a makeover at MAC. It looked great in the store but didn't last more than a few hours and then the eyes smudged quite a bit. I had another at Space NK which wasn't great. Just over a week before the wedding I popped into John Lewis on Oxford Street to pick up some bits and I really liked the way the girl behind the Clinique counter had her eyes. I asked her to do the same on my eyes (no, she didn't punch them ) and I liked it so much I asked her if she was free the following Sunday to do my makeup for my wedding. After some arm twisting she did it. It was very, very natural.
The only reason I decided to choose someone was becuase of the photographs. I'm really happy with the way I do my own makeup but on film it looks very different and the makeup girls know which parts to "touch up" for the camera. I found they used lots of light reflecting makeup.
In Ibiza I think if it were me, I'd do my own
Sorry for the rambling post

I use Lancome mascara. I've tried lots of others but I still find the Definicils is the best
