Anchorwoman
So the person who did my makeup consultation sent me the “before & after” pic today, so I passed it around to Uyen, Lindsi, my sister, and my mom.
The concensus seems to be:
- Skin looks really great
- Blush looks great, but actually too subtle
- Lip color is nice
- Lashes look great (my sis said it should be fuller)
- Eye makeup is just not right for me
- General look is too “old”
It feels like the eye makeup makes me look like an Asian woman trying to look like a white woman. I simply have no eye crease, but the makeup artist tried to make the appearance of one, and in my opinion, that’s not the best way to deal with the situation. I don’t want to pretend like I have a crease where I don’t. Ok, so I want to pretend to have mega lashes even though I only have puny ones. Heh. Even though I think she’s a fantastic makeup artist and really delivered on the natural looking coverage that stayed on for hours (literally 6 hours, with no smudging or smearing or caking), I think I might forfeit my deposit and try to find someone else.
Frankly, I want to look like a Korean pop star, not like Connie Chung, which is who Seppo said my makeup reminded him of, effectively sealing the deal. Heh.
Why is it that all Asian women on TV have overdone eye makeup?
I sent her some comments and pictures of what I’d like the overall makeup effect to look like, and it seemed like she understood and had a plan for that look, so we are still talking. 🙂
