Chanced upon this site (http://www.makeupsense.com/guide/introduction/), I think it's pretty good. It explains the different types of eyes and how to enhance them. =)

I cant remember the exact price but it's definitely below $20. And yes it removes waterproof MU and doesn't sting the eyes

free/ very cheap beginner's course?

anyways i can learn MU from scratch @ cheap cost? i read website & mags but the more i read the more blur i am... need a real person to teach

Hi, some CCs do conduct make-up course.
Try this link: http://160.96.187.35/NASApp/cconline/main.do
Hope it can help you.

Actually makeup don't have a specific technique. You can just have blusher and eyeliner and voila! you're all madeup. :D

you can try www.makeuptalk.com. They have lots of step-by-step tutorials

good luck, girls!

hi...

Like what the others have mentioned, going to a makeup counter is really essential to learn the correct way of applying. Besides that, you will learn which colours suit you best too...

I know that recently the Lancom makeup counter at Isetan(Wisma) are having free make over session. But of course you gotta book an appt first. Perhaps beginner can check it out too. My friend went once and its quite good. The make-up artiste ain't pushy after the whole session so you dont have to buy their product on spot.

They apply makeup on one half of your face and you have will to apply the other half your own. the main purpose is for you to learn. Quite effective....

Hi Girls, if you are interested to learn the basics of makeup, I can offer to teach you. There will be a minimum cost of SGD10 for this session of 2 hours at my home. If you are interested, I can start a class with a minimum of 5 persons. I am not a professional makeup artist but I graduated with a cert. Anyone who's interested can drop me a mail at [email protected].

PS: You have to bring your own cosmetics along...

[smilez]

hi girls..

besides that, is there any technique for using mascara?

Buy a good concealor to hide blemishes n foundation to make it flawless, neutral colour lipliner so you lips looks great even after a meal.

Invest in gd concealor n foundation.

silky girl loose powder to set...

cheap lipstick n lipgloss will do. lipstick get one in natural colour n one deeper colour for nite. Can use the lipstick as a blusher n eyeshadow base if u like

buy cheap eyeshadow will do also and line with cheap eye liner...

white matte eyeshadow for highlighting your face

cheap mascara for your eyes n can brush lightly on your brows too

Can go SaSa buy sample size branded cosmetic...its cheap n the quality is there.

hi everyone! pls help me! after using the loose powder to set, do i still nid to apply anymore foundation or other powder? im using loreal's foundation now and by noon time, my foundation tends to disappear =( is it because of my oily skin? is there other recommendations of powders or foundations which is more affordable for acne skin??

[amethyst_twine]

You don't need anymore foundation after loose powder. You should blot when you skin gets oily and apply another layer of powder. A compact powder would be more convenient to bring out. MAC has a blot powder which you can just use to touch up without blotting.
