Hi everyone !
Soo this is my second blogpost in my "Back To School" series this year & this blogpost is basically about wearing make-up to school & some photo's of make-up simular to what I'd wear to school that I wore to summer camp last week as an experiment.
First, I'm just going to tell you's about the five blogposts in this series !
1. Hairstyles : Click here to see the blogpost I did on unique pretty hairstyles for back to school !
2. Make-Up : You are here ! I'm going to show you what make-up you can get away with wearing & what's enough & what's too much.
3. School Supplies : Mini haul of my school supplies & what's in my pencil case this year !
4. First Year Advice : I've a good few readers going into First Year soo as I've gone through First Year, I'm going to write a blogpost on advice for incoming First Years ! Promise I won't call you's Firsties !
5. First Week Experience : Soo I've moved schools & I'm starting there in two weeks time as a Second Year student. I've alot of friends who already go there. I've decided that when I start I'm going to do a blogpost on my first week's experience, etc. that week.
I'm going to get on with this make-up post now - Can't ramble forever !
Ok, First I'm going to talk about what type of make-up I'd suggest wearing for school.
I always go along with the theory that your make-up should be even which then looks natural, Even if you're wearing the slightest of make-up & remember always apply moisturiser before applying make-up.
Here's my suggestions for wearing make-up to school !
Concealer, Powder, etc. ~ Concealer, Foundation & powder can be a nuisance, because they always seem to be one shade darker than your face ! Only apply concealer to under your eyes, Blemishes or wherever you might need it, because you'll probably be wearing foundation or powder ontop of that & you don't want your make-up to be heavy at all. Also, If you're applying foundation or powder make sure you apply it cheeks, Forehead & all, because you don't want to look patchy ... Just saying.
Eyes : I usually wear concealer on my eyelids as it evens out with the rest of your face, but if you have time a neutral palette can look pretty. I also don't get the big deal about wearing brown mascara to school. Sorry, but seriously - When was the last time you saw someone with natural really long & thick brown eye lashes ? It just dosen't look natural & I think a black multi action mascara you can use all year around is much more convenient & easier. If you can perfect a subtle black eyeliner that looks really pretty too.
Lips : If you're wearing any lip product to school, I'd suggest wearing a lip stain maybe, because they pretty much stay on for most of the day & if it's in a natural looking shade you won't get caught !
School Make-Up Disasters : Hmm, Well orange foundation or heavy make-up full stop dosen't look good school or no school. Heavy black eye pencil or eyeliner is just a no-no for school. Lipstick, Heavy brows, Blusher, Flamboyant eyeshadow, You get what I'm saying - They're just not appropriate for school & your teachers won't like it & all.

ReplyDeleteThanks :)) !
DeleteLove the post! I think your Back to School series is fab! Really inspired me! I've done a few... but would you mind if I did the First Week Experience? Although I'm at the same school I'm 15 so I'm going into 'senior school' (same school but different uniform, timetable, classes, even friends possibly) and I think it might work for me! Would you mind? It's a great idea! Niamh x
