Not much... none really... :S
Well, I do have the foundation stuff on one of my school shirts and it wont come off :s
I wear makeup but I don't cake it on. I use primer, foundation, blusher, fill in my eyebrows, mascara, lipstick. Sometimes wear eyeliner and usually only eyeshadow if I am going out. Never really used to wear lipstick before this year. I loveee plum colours. All my stuff is Mac/Lancome/Benefit/Urban Decay/Smashbox so it will add up to hundreds. Also I dread to think the money i have spent on nail polish!
most days nothing like i won't if im nipping to shop, at uni, going to a friends etc but I'll wear blusher and light mascara if its gonna be a long day or I need a confidence boost. get my eyelash curlers, eyeliner and thicker mascara if Im going clubbing. never wear foundation think my skin is fine n tbh don't wanna begin, like only taking 3 mins to do my makeup! don't do eyebrows
o yea don't think lipstick is my thing, i use a red lip balm tho which gives me bit of colour but again only use for clubbing. I spend like £4-£7 on each item lol so v cheap altho my mascara was £12
Uhmm not that I do it on occasion but obviously when I do shows, I have to wear make up on stage and guys I don't know how you do it! My face feel so heavy!! I normally have to get eyeliner, this lip stuff that isn't lipstick but y'know, blush and this massive crayola yoke that I can't remember the name of. It feels like my face weighs about 3 stone
Shows for what?Quote:

I wasn't really a lipstick person before this year either but I'm also in love with plum colours. I love mac lipsticks.
I've been using mostly Bobbi brown/mac/lancome/kiko/urban decay stuff lately.
Omg kiko! I was in Italy this year so I bought a ton of stuff. It's so cheap there and I love the polishes. Where did you get the set for that cheap! I am using the lancome star mascara atm. It's fab. I love the lancome rouge in love lipstick in rose sulferuse. Theres an american one called fiery attitude which I really want. I usually wait till the lancome stuff is on offer with a free gift. I'm friendly with the girl in boots so she always gives me a ton of stuff as extra. I like smash box primer but I'm using mac prep n prime atm! I just want all the mac lipsticks now :( gna go in soon and get a few.Quote:

I don't go all out on make-up. I'll find cheap that works and use that. I mainly use Maybelline products as they work for me.
I'll either wear liquid liner and mascara with concealer/foundation depending on my skin, or smokey eye shadow and mascara.
Wish I had of known about that! I only seen the shop gift which you has to buy as well as your 2 products. I hadn't heard of kiko before Italy. I had a look online and its alot more expensive here. Wish I had of stocked up.
i think me and @Red; are the big makeup people here
i wear primer, foundation, eyeshadow, mascara, bronzer and lipstick as my daily makeup
usually if i'm wearing my hair up i'll use a bright lipstick but if it's down i'll just wear any nude colour
used to always wear eyeliner but very rarely now, only if i'm going out and even then i'll only line my top line
right now i'm using mac primer, chanel foundation (it's really light, more like a tinted moisturiser imo) benefit eyeshadow, a range of lipsticks usually topshop - estee lauder and my mascara is benefit atm but i HATE IT. just using it as it's the only one i have, i'll have to go get a loreal one soon. bronzer and powder are mac but rarely use powder in winter
if my skins bad i'll use a nars foundation first as my base then put the chanel on top as it gives the dewy effect. ehhh and i forgot i also use nars illuminator on my cheekbones and under my eyes if i'm looking a bit tired
very very very expensive stuff. probably what most of my money goes on unfortunately
being an aspiring makeup artist i own tons lmfao and own tons of brands from drugstore to high end brands like mac/urban decay.
rly like some elf products tho and also shop online alot at sephora and BHcosmetics they have fab prices nd rly good quality products
i wear da full package here is da list for u all irl
-Moisturizer
-Face/foundation primer
-foundation
-concealer stick/liquid
-Brow pencil/brow gel/shadow
-HD powder
-Eye shadow primer
-Eyeshadow
-mascara
-lipbalm/gloss/stick
-bronzer/blush/highlighter
i dnt like contoring tho so jus use normal bronzer
rly thinknig of putting up makeup totorials on youtube eventually when i get a camera :P

also looknig for a very nice dark berry lipstick shade atm ik mac has one im pretty sure just forget the name of it but its always out of stock when im on the website gr
i cake it on
@OldLoveSong; yeah i am, it doesn't work for me at all! only using it at the moment because it's giving me extra moisture as my skin is soooo dry. i personally wouldn't recommend it, but that could just be my skin type. my favourite primer is the benefit stay flawless or obviously smashbox
for 5 years i wore studio fix liquid foundation and it will forever be my favourite! really recommend it, the only reason i'm not using it at the moment is i'm trying to experiment with foundations just to see if there are any better ones for my skin, but so far it's been the best
thanks I'm definitely getting itQuote:

noooooo have you seen it? too many pinks and shimmer! i'd only ever use those pinks as a base and most basic palettes come with a decent colour anyway
stick with just 2, it's the best and the only one you need in my opinion
naked 1 is my fav ilove all the darker bronze colours, def not gonna buy the 3 tho. like wixard said its just too rosy/pink based colours
true I do use more bronze colours anyway
I use studio fix foundation too. Love it. Although there is this Irish brand called fuschica which I wanna try. I had my makeup done with it and it lasted forever on my skin. What is the Nars illuminator like? I wanna try it! I will have to order online thought and I have no idea about colours though? Rebel is really nice sarah from mac.
for illuminator I got the pink one, ******? it's fine but sonetimes streaks if not blended properly so when I run out I'm gonna give the yellow tone one a go to see which is better. super expensive but mines lasted over a year and still got some leftQuote:

Daily basis I wear
Benefit foundation (£24 i think?)
Match powder( £7.99?)
Naked, Urban Decay, eyeshadow (£42) (usually wear 3 shades)
L'oreal smude eyeline (not sure how much? £8 i think)
Benefit 'real look' mascara (£23)
I Only wear eyeliner
But I have 2 eyeliners, one thats kinda thick and then one thats super thin for the wing
Thick ones £2.99 & Thinner ones £6.99
err, concealer if i'm spotty, foundation, blush, eyeshadow (light browns for daily wear, dark colours for going out), mascara, liquid eyeliner, sometimes eyeliner, lipstick and sometimes might do my eyebrows. if i can't be bothered with lipstick i'll just pop on a bit of vaseline! i'm constantly changing my foundation because i'm seriously never happy with it, but everything else i keep the same with.
A daily bases I'll wear foundation, brown eye shadow and black eye liner.
If I was going out I'd wear foundation, black eye shadow, black liquid eye liner, black eyeliner, blusher, lip stick and gloss.
I don't wear any make up. My face is all natural, baby.
I wear eyeliner, mascara and mineral foundation on a daily basis, but if I go out I use eyeshadows as well.
One of my weekend's look:

If you want to count moisturiser as make-up then that's first. Then;
-Roll on to cover any blemishes
-BB cream
-liquid foundation
-fill in my eyebrows
-I don't often use an eye shadow but if i do it's either browns or greys
-Mascara, and sometimes eyeliner
-Pressed powder
-blusher
- and finally either aloe vera vaseline or a clear, plumping lipgloss
Pretty much all of my make-up is L'Oreal Paris, I swear by it. I have skin that's a tragedy with most make-up but L'Oreal really does the job :)
I don't wear any. :P
only bb cream if I have something important like a date otherwise all naturale lol
If I have any, then eye serum (tbh i havent used any for months so doubtful ill get it again). Otherwise nothing.
A little eyeliner, eyeshadow, and mascara when I feel like it. :)
I wear bb cream, concealer, powder and mascara on daily basis when I'm leaving house and eyeliner and lipstick with all that when going out at night and things. All cheapish brands really I don't splurge on makeup.
