Share your makeup errors and corrections!



Oh dear! Why ladies? I have such a bittersweet feeling about this picture. Am so happy cos one of my most beautiful Nigerian woman 'Waje' is celebrating her birthday but this picture is just ..........! Which brings us to the question, why does your face look plastic particularly with night time pictures? I know the camera flash must have added to this but also their makeup contributed a great deal. I can clearly see Waje's contour and highlights particularly at the bridge of her nose. Speaking for myself now, i think their 'foundation' caused it!


I shared my makeup routine from my post here and frankly speaking i don't think women should use foundations to night events especially when you know there are gonna be pictures. I wrote about it, i don't use foundation day nor night but in the past i tried this really nice tinted moisturizer from Bobby Brown which was FANTASTIC. I simply decided to stop for no just reason however i use concealers a lot for my dark spots and finish up with my powder. So ladies, i want to hear from you, what makeup errors do you see around and how do you manage yours?

  1. Mine happened yesterday wen I used concealer as nude lipstick. I looked horrible. So I tried to remove it and apply my regular red lipstick. Mac matte or whatever it's called. Didn't know how dry it looked till I got back home. No more concealer for lipstick again oh. Thx for ds blog though. U re always up to date.

    1. The good thing about your oily face is that you wouldn't get wrinkles easily
      Anyways try blotting papers(I use them)..i think mary kay has got one for about 700bucks
      Also before your rub your makeup wash ure face with warm water first...then splash cold water on your face when ure done to seal ure pores
      Lastly try oil free cleansers and expoliate at least twice a week
      Hope this helps
