So, my ENFP girl friend is pretty low key and sticks as close to 'natural' when it comes to makeup.
My ENFP boyfriend likes girls who don't wear a lot of makeup. I'm noticing a trend?

LOL

What is your beauty secret?
Your must-have product?
Also, what is your favorite makeup-look?

My Beauty Secret: Cut sugars and dairy ~ you'll get clearer skin if you're acne prone :D
My Must Have Product: Meow Cosmetics Mineral Makeup
My Favorite Makeup Look
1) Daytime:

2) Nighttime:


PS: I can't wear a lot of makeup around my bf - He's too physical, kissing and touching my face to where there's no makeup left by the time I get home :laughing:

I really enjoy makeup but I don't wear very much of it. I love dark eyeliner and lipgloss...those are probably the two items I use the most. I do also like trying out new shades of blush.

In terms of beauty secrets, I tend to eat plenty of fruit every day, green vegetables and drink plenty of water. I avoid sugar, bread and red meat and try to eat salmon as often as possible.

I also swim and use Eve Lom cleanser for my skin.

Lol, I love makeup xD so does my ENFP buddy @ModelandActress

Yeah, during the day I usually just wear really thick, winged out eyeliner on the top and bottom, and... well, I usually have a light shade of eyeshadow everywhere and a dark one in the outward corner thingy. Sometimes I'll wear blush, but usually I'm lazy... I don't wear mascara because my eyelashes are freakishly long anyway. It looks something like this: (this isn't me)

And at night, when I go out on my nonexistent dates (nyahaha)... or to somewhere all fancy if I'm on vacation, I usually do the same but I would have on darker eyeshadow... depending on the day. The end

Exfoliate ONCE a week at most to get rid of dead skin cells (avoiding the eyes and temples), then wash them and the dirt away (with an actual facial cleanser - body soaps and washes are much too harsh to use on the face), use toner to reduce the appearance of pores and restore the pH balance to the face - even the nicest facial cleansers can strip away the skin's defenses (natural oils work as a barrier to protect the skin from microorganisms and pollution - pH balance keeps the level of oil from being too much or too little), then moisturize to protect the new skin cells (use a facial moisturizer that has spf and does not have mineral water as a main ingredient. Water-based moisturizers actually dry out the skin. Body and hand lotion are NOT facial moisturizers and most will leave your face feeling oily and gross).

Toner isn't essential....but I would recommend it if you have skin that is either very oily or very dry to help balance out the pH - make sure that you get a toner that is designed for your skin type.

--------------
In spite of the fact that I used to work in a beauty department, I don't really wear makeup... When I do, I like to play with eyeshadow the most.

The look of complementary color eye shadow is a nice dramatic effect that I like a lot.

And if you are tired and you look like it....blue eyeliner makes you look more alert and awake. :p

What is your beauty secret? Having a regular sleeping routine.
Your must-have product? Chapstick (Preferably, Burt's Bees)
Also, what is your favorite makeup-look? I don't wear makeup often at all; but when it's time to get fancy, I normally just throw on some thick black eyeliner, red lipstick and call myself ready.


Like this, just minus the shadow and intensely arched eyebrows.

not much eye make-up for me. I am really sensitive around the eyes and even the most hypoallergenic things have me rubbing my eyes all day. kinda defeats the purpose.

Must haves:

for hair...anything by the company CIBU especially their tsu-shine serum, and yes all have corny names, for my naturally curly hair.
for face...bare minerals
lips: mostly glosses, stains, nothing that looks wet or shiny. that always distracts me and I think girls are hyper-salivating.

for lifestyle...no matter how shitty my ensemble or untamed my hair...I think smiling and good posture and lots of eye contact....all improve my appearance.

My makeup is basic, black eye liner and mascara, lip gloss/stains. When I go out at night I go for thicker eyeliner and a little shadow.
I have naturally curly hair so it usually gets pulled back. I like to straighten it when I go out on dates.
Natural beauty secret: get plenty of sleep, drink lots of water (I try, I try) and eat healthy!
Keeping it simple.

I use maybeline lucious eyelash stuff and eye lining pencil stuff the same color as whatever boxers I am wearing then put on sunglasses to keep it mysterious......:cool:

Ok, none of that's true but it's a fairly new thread and I felt left out :unsure:

I don't blow-dry or straighten my hair. I let it air-dry down for maybe 15-20 minutes to get my part to stay where I want it, then I throw it up in a bun. It takes longer to dry and when I first let it down it looks a little crazy, but then it relaxes into these nice, natural looking waves :) I don't know that this would work with everyone's hair, though.

Your must-have product s?
On the occasions that I go all out - liquid eyeliner, mascara, eyebrow pencil, and chapstick.

Also, what is your favorite makeup-look?
Natural looking, and the thick eyeliner on the top lid

I’m one of the lucky ones who doesn’t need a lot of makeup. My skin is pretty clear so I’ll just stick on a bit of powder and that’s it. If I’m going out somewhere super fancy then I’ll do the full makeup thing, but even then I still prefer as little as possible… I hate putting on a face… it looks and feels so fake XD!
I have pouty lips and big, round eyes with these mega long eyelashes. I don’t normally wear mascara because it kills eyelashes, so when I do wear it my eye lashes are suuuuuper long and people ask me if they’re fake hahaha.

I use a Neutrogena Cleansing Bar to wash my face and Cetaphil Sensitive Skin Moisturizing Cream for hydration.

I'd rather not wear makeup, so I only put it on if I need to be "seen." ;)
I use Bare Minerals makeup and apply the natural look.

I also try to get plenty of rest, water, and exercise. :kitteh:

not a big fan of loads of make-up on girls. it's nice when they do it occasionally though and flattering when you know they've done it to impress you. i think, for example, that essex culture (hoping i don't accidentally offend anyone here) of doing yourself up to look like a doll is very unattractive.. but most other guys seem to get a kick out of it.

#1 for my skin: wearing sunscreen. Even if it's cloudy out, I wear non-comedogenic (in English: doesn't cause acne) sunscreen on my face. Keeping off UV is the best thing you can do for your skin.

For makeup, I usually wear a layer of foundation to even out my skin tone and a lightly tinted lip balm, like Burt's Bees. My hair is short so I don't need to mess around with ponytails or buns. I usually gel it into spikes while it's still damp from the shower and let it dry like that. I learned how to this from the back of a bottle of hair gel for men. I also wear Old Spice because I don't give a damn about gender binaries.

I love make up and sometimes I wear it and sometimes I don't wear a single thing! Especially when it is hot out. Sometimes I just wanna look all natural and sometimes I wanna look like I headed to the street corner.

I am 38 and will be 39 years old in December. I definitely look older than I once did. I take a good fish oil supplement and a decent multivitamin and drink a lot of water - keeps my skin clear. Other than that, I still smoke one or two cigarettes every single night before I go to bed and I still love diet Mountain Dew and I love me some sunshine even though I am redhead and I spend time in it, too.

Another one is...to avoid stress, anger, anxiety and negative feelings as much as possible. This helps a lot in terms of overall appearance I find.

When someone is sincerely peaceful and loving they often appear more radiantly beautiful in my opinion.

I don't wear makeup. I'm not a morning person--all I do is roll out of bed, wash my face, brush my hair, get dressed, eat, brush my teeth and then I'm out the door. Also, there are so many interesting things I could be doing instead of putting on make up--even if it only takes 5 minutes. I could spend that 5 minutes reading or sleeping. I don't really need make-up anyway. I'm attractive enough without it and don't feel the need to fit in with society's conventions (not where it concerns make-up anyway). I do wear it for special occasions--like my sister's wedding a couple years ago. But those occasions don't come around too often.

My products: Bert's Bees honey chapstick, the Body Shop's tea-tree facial moisterizure, and Degree's Pure Rain deoderant.

What is your beauty secret?: Make sure your eyebrows are under control, even if that means tweezing or waxing them. The shape of your eyebrows affects how people perceive your entire face! They should look well-kempt and natural.

Your must-have product?: Neutrogena Revitalizing Lip Balm:

Also, what is your favorite makeup-look?:
Natural-looking foundation, some tinted lip balm, a natural shimmery eyeshadow, a bit of brown eyeliner, and a bit of mascara!

It's great that you've found a healthy balance between wearing makeup and embracing your natural look. For clearer skin, cutting back on sugar and dairy is a great suggestion. And, it's also great to have a trusted product like Meow Cosmetics Mineral Makeup as a must-have.
For a daytime look, a natural, fresh-faced look with a focus on face, hair, lip, eyebrow, and cheek can be beautiful and simple. For nighttime, you can opt for a more dramatic look with bolder eye makeup, or even try a different hairstyle to change things up.
It's important to remember that beauty is subjective and everyone has different preferences. It's important to find what works best for you and make you feel confident and comfortable.
