Good auld Irish skin.... I have probably skin the exact colour of a sheet of paper.. A ghost.. A corpse.. Whatever I've heard it all! Haha!
I have no undertones to my skin.. Maybe sometimes a tinge of red if I'm sick or having a reaction to some product.. Yep.. It's also super sensitive!!
I also have a lot of freckles.. Not the cute ones some people get.. Across their nose.. Mine are like little brown smudges making my skin look dirty! Ugh!
I have bad dark circles under my eyes too.. Not sure why.. Nothing seems to help even a good nights sleep! I think it might have to do with my sinus problems! Apparently that can cause dark circles from bad circulation in the eyes area.. anyway here is my most basic make up routine.. To cover up my imperfections.. I havnt done any eye make up here..
These are the areas I apply my concealor...
The concealer I use is the palest I've ever found and I think it would only suit very pale people as you can see.. It's hard to see even on the palest girl in the world! :P (apologies for the crap lighting!!)
These are all the products I used..
Primer : baby skin by maybeline
It's lovely and light on the skin.. And does fill in those pores... Which can be very visible with pale skin! (Great news right!)
Foundation : 25 hour lasting finish by Rimmel.
This is not too light and not too heavy. It's the lightest shade it comes in. It does stay put for most of the day but definetely wouldnt last 25 hours haha! But what foundation does. I've gone off my usual MAC foundation lately and I'm not sure why.. I just keep going back to this every morning! It wouldnt be good for going out at night though unless you applied it kinda heavy! :)
Contouring : Rimmel bronzer.
Cant remember the accurate name for this cause I lost the cover.. Which I always do! Its also nearly gone! Oops! I love it! Its great for pale skin cause it isnt too pigmented leaving you looking like a drag queen!..
I just apply this to my cheek bones, temples, along my hairline, down the sides of my nose and down my neck to blend my foundation with my natural skin colour! Ye all know the way anyway! :P
Eyebrows : A pencil by Eylure.
The name had faded off this.. and I got it over a year ago! Its alright for light shading! Again I wouldnt use that on a night out! But it's perfect for daytime! :)
Real Techniques brushes! Both foundation brushes!
The result...
Basically this is just evening out uneven skin tone that very pale people always seem to have issues with.
There's no eye makeup done here.. Not even mascara! (feel sooo naked in the eyeball area ahaha!)
