    Make up Lessons??

    I must confess that i do not know how to apply make up.

    My mum never used or uses make up so i was never taught.

    I don't even know which colour foundation i should use. The only items in my make up bag are eye shadows, lippies and a liquid eye liner which i apply to the best of my ability.

    I would love to be able to use foundation, blush, use eye shadows properly but i don't know how to.

    Where would i go to get some lessons. Just a few lessons, i guess. Nothing for professional use just personal use.

    Any ideas??

    OMG Turkish Delight I am exactly the same! I don't wear make up because I don't know how to use it. My mum never wears it, neither does my sister. I would LOVE to wear it but every time I apply it it just looks wrong. If I really need to wear it I always get a friend t do it for me.

    I thougth I was the only one

    I don't even OWN make-up... even if I knew what to buy I just wouldn't know what to do with it! I'd love to pretty myself up sometimes, just on the odd special occasion, but I just have no idea so i don't even bother wasting my money! I don't even know how to put eyeliner on properly!!

    OMG. I thought i was the only one

    Leasha, i don't even know how to put eyeliner on properly too. I can only do the top eyelid.

    I want to be able to use 2 colour eyeshadows and put eyeshadow underneath my eyes too IYKWIM? I want to feel pretty.

    I don't even wear makeup to work and am always being told off by my mum to wear some. But how can i when i don't know how too?

    I am calling Napoleon NOW..

    Thanks

    I had a one hour make up lesson at Mecca, around $100, redeeemable on product. The MUA wrote down everything she used. I liked it because they were all different brands, rather than just the one. A couple of things like eyeshadow, I went to The Body Shop and bought the same colour shade, but cheaper.

    HTH.

    I would love to go and do something like this too. I wouldn't be able to do it locally, so would have to go out of town, where there is a chemist that use to do some short courses. I can't remember if they used Clinique products or Lancome?? So maybe try a big chain chemist that has big name products as well.
