Hi everyone.
Well all my life I have been mostly a tom-boy.
I never really got into the whole make-up thing
but now that I have a boyfriend I am feeling like I want to look better.
but I have like NO idea what I am doing other then that lipstick and gloss goes on your lips and eye shadow on the eyes.
if someone could help me that would really be great (=

That's great that you want to look good for your boyfriend, but don't feel too pressured to wear make up! Anyways, you have a gorgeous face and from what I can see in the pic, you have a great complexion. If you want a really basic look to just enhance what you have (plus is low maintenance and easy) put some foundation on to smooth out your skin tone. I'd like to stress the importance of using the right shade of foundation, because it's embarassing to walk around with a face that doesn't match the color of your neck, haha. Then use bronzer and brush some along your cheek bones and you'll instantly have a sun kissed glow. Then quickly brush some light shade of pink or some browns over your eyelids for some definition, and make sure to brush it evenly on your lids and crease, don't go too high. Top it off with some mascara and lip gloss. This look is really easy and makes you look gorgeous without looking like you're trying too hard. Play around with it and good luck!

i think foundation and bronzer is not really necessary because it looks like your complexion is already very even. all you really need is some eye shadow, mascara, and lipgloss. dont go too crazy with makeup if your just starting.
for the eyeshadow: bush some soft pink or something neutral colored over your eyelids, but not past the crease.
mascara: take the wand and sweep it through your eyelashes
lipgloss: its pretty easy to apply lipgloss, just choose a color that you like, or one that is close to your lip color.
also, make up is not the only way o look nicer for your bf. (but as the person above me said, you shouldnt feel presured to look good for others.) do something nice with your hair, wear pretty earing, wear a simple neacklace and bracelet.
and you can also change your clothes. wear something that is form fitting and goes with your figure. and its desnt have to be anything expensive. discount stores and have great things like that.
please know that i am just giving you suggestions on becomeing more 'girly'. you dont need to take my advice if you dont want to. but if you do, good luck with your new look! :)
