If women look better sans makeup, you just happen to be around women who are bad at makeup, tbh.

[ariseishirou.livejournal.com]

I don't think that's entirely true. There are people who genuinely prefer the way people look without makeup. Everyone has different tastes; I've heard plenty of people coo about how gorgeous Kim Kardashian's eyelashes are for example, and to me it looks like she glued a hideous cave spider to her eyes. Everyone has their own sense of aesthetics. If natural's your thing, then natural's your thing. Nothing wrong with liking makeup face, nothing wrong with liking non-makeup face.

[purrple-267.livejournal.com]

I politely disagree, because tons of makeup is used to create the natural "I'm not really wearing makeup" look and if the 'natural' look looks worse than no makeup, it's bad makeup or bad application. If relmneiko only talks about color or "fun" makeup, than ok, that's just a preference.

Lol, I was just criticizing Kim K's makeup on another site. I hate her superlight undereye concealer. Don't go 5 shades too light people! x(

I personally use zero makeup to create a natural "I'm not really wearing makeup" look which is, evidently - as per my post upthread - indistinguishable from the "I'm not really wearing makeup" look that requires "tons" of make up, so I suppose we will have to politely disagree, yes.

Hey if she likes horrible cave spiders on her eyes, I'm not going to judge ;p

[purrple-267.livejournal.com]

I noticed I phrased that stupidly, I ment tons of makeup sold is for that natural look, not tons of makeup is needed to create it, neutrals always outsell bright, fun colors for a reason.

But if you put foundation on your perfect skin and it suddenly starts looking worse or just the same, there's a problem with the foundation or application, since foundation should enhance your skin, even if it already looks good. So 'people looking better without makeup' is an exception not a rule, even with naturally good-looking people, imo.

[ariseishirou.livejournal.com]

Oh, I getcha' now. I see your point, too.

...If you don't mind me asking, because you seem to know your stuff and I know basically nothing: I have very clear skin (however much that seems to enrage some random anon, it's true) and the few times in my life I've worn foundation it just looked made me look washed out, like my face (I also have naturally reddish cheeks) suddenly became unicolour and plastic-looking. What am I doing wrong here? Too little? Too much? Wrong kind? Wrong colour? Am I supposed to put the colour back in with rouge? I used a liquid foundation that I'd matched with my skin tone as best I could.

[purrple-267.livejournal.com]

For that unicolor thing you could try blush, or if you wanna go all the way - a contour and/or highlighter, all that will add dimension. 'Washed out' could also mean the shade might be too light or the wrong undertone (despite what many believe, not everyone is warm yellow, there's also cool, olive, neutral undertones, etc.). You could also try a lighter coverage, so your natural skintone shows through more, like sheer foundation or a tinted moisturiser. I've been loving pretty much every Korean bb cream lately - tinted moisturiser, sunscreen and very arguable skincare benefits I don't believe in all rolled into one! :D Shade selection and access suck though (pretty much just ebay).
