  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Okay so I know this is geared more for the ladies, sorry guys! But this is a thread all about makeup.

So show pictures of either yourself, tutorials, pictures of make ups you like, styles... Do you like it classy? Retro? Sleek?

Giving tips too is a major plus.

Since a couple of people have asked me, I thought to share how I accomplish my ruby red lips!

To be honest, I have a LOT of red lip stick / gloss. It is my primarily color, although I wear it so infrequently because I don't go anywhere that requires to glammer up. The main lip stick I use, though, is 111 Kiss of Life by Rimmel; it by Kate. Not sure Kate who as it doesn't say but just look for Rimmel. I apply a similar shade of lip liner before that - that one is by Loreal Paris and I can't find it at the moment. Once I do, I will tell you exactly the name. I highly suggest getting the brand of said lipsticks that is called MAC - high quality and works REALLY well. I actually have a nude / pink from Clique that is amazing. $17.00 but it lasts you a while if you don't use lipstick frequently like me.

So basically what I do is take the lip liner and color my lips with it. You can say it is your "base" lip color. Because if your lips are already that color, not only does it make the lip stick stand out more but it makes it more smooth to apply. After that I apply the lipstick and bam! Purty red lips.

I don't wear make up all that often and when I do it's usually just lipstick or something, but I do like to experiment with eye shadows and so later when I'm on my other computer I'll upload some of those pictures. :sorry:

I love the cat eye look but for the life of me I cannot do it at all. Me and eyeliner just aren't friends. lol

Also I don't do all the bronzing and foundation and blending and all that. Partly because I'm pretty sure I'd end up looking like a clown. lol

I like these looks:

All I have to say about this thread is...

Ladies and fake eyebrows: Don't...

View attachment 199439

Those are supposed to be eyebrows? I thought it was a poorly drawn field of grass.

I have always wanted my lips to look as luscious and good as that. I know it takes practice and the right make-up but dang.

Hahahaha. I'm sitting here with my Mom and I just suddenly burst out laughing at what you said and I made my mom jump, lol.

My mom says I have "perfect lips"perfectly proportioned. But... she's suppose to say that, she's my mom!

Would you believe I sat there for a few seconds trying to figure out what to describe it in a humorous way, being the writer I am? All I could think of is grass. It looks like a dark field of grass where her eyebrows are supposed to be. I mean, look how thick it is. Does she water those?!

The first two are how I do my eye makeup. I love to mix a cat eye and smokey eye together.

I really like this look. I love to wear makeup that is soft and not too complicated or over stated. I would love to learn how to wear fake eyelashes though. I wore them for a friend's wedding and everyone loved how it looked (including myself).

Hahaha :tutu: That's hilarious. I'm laughing again at "Does she water those" :D

I love that!

I wish someone would just do my make up every day. :sorry:

I'm not wearing any make up. I actually have darker skin around my eyes especially when sleep deprived and naturally thick black eyelashes, it's ironic really.

I'm so jealous! :p

I like that look! It's gorgeous.

I naturally have really long eyelashes BUT I'd love to wear fake ones sometime. I just think they look cool. But I think I wouldn't be able to wear them because of the glue or whatever the adhesive is. I think it's made of latex (which I'm allergic to) or I belive it is. I could be wrong

I have no idea what's in the glue. It's possible it does contain latex and honestly I'm not sure I'd ever have the patience for false eyelashes. I imagine it takes a lot of practice. :sorry:

For me it would probably be like my nail polish: Great on the right side, drunk on the left. :p
