post pictures of makeup that inspires you

Well, I have about three. Sorry this is a very superficial thread, I'm avoiding studying for exams centered around sciences. hahah

Emma Watson: For her natural beauty and her fair trade fashion support. If you are unfamiliar with fair trade, look into it.

Kim Kardashian: I am Lebanese, and appreciate she has a Middle Eastern look to her. I always love her hair and makeup.

Sophia Loren: Beautiful. So beautiful in every way. Just look at her when she was younger. Sexy!

Zoe Saldana- I think she is so gorgeous and her makeup and outfits are always on point! I love her style it's so chic and never over-done.

3. Asami she's under japan in lookbook :'D

Emma Watson ( I LOVE the dress she wore to the Deathly Hallows Premiere) , Ashley Judd, Audrey Hepburn, Marilyn Monroe, Kim Kardashian, and then there are some that have hit or miss fashion moments like Christina Aguilera, Goldie Hawn and crazy Joan Rivers. Kelly Osbourne has been looking fab since she lost a lot of weight these past couple years too.

I forgot Jackie K.O. She IMO will always be the classiest First Lady ever.

Well, I don't really look up to any of the Hollywood stars. I have no interest in them.

I really like the way ulzzang girls dress. Not the Japanese Gyaru style, but the Korean Ulzzang style. I think Jung Roo is very pretty and also does her makeup well. I also like Angelababy's makeup, despite her being completely fake.

Agreed, I look up to more people who I can relate to, and easily get inspired from, or learn from in terms of coordination, makeup etc.

Japanese shopstaff workers! : W<3C and Maison Gilfy shop staff BOSS.

Grace Kelly and Heidi Klum <3 <3 <3

Audrey Hepburn.... simple, yet unforgetable....

I love the style of Carine/Julia Restoin Roitfeld for trendy polish and Sasha Pivovarova for casual quirkiness.

Olivia Palermo always looks great.

Lily Donaldson, Hilary Duff, Jen Aniston, Mila Kunis

Lady Gaga - I LOVE her crazy style and how much she owns every look. No matter how out there her outfit is, she works it, and is so effortless.
Lauren Conrad - I like how easy and simple her outfits are. Her hair is amazing!
Victoria Beckham, Olivia Palermo, Selena Gomez, Kourtney Kardashian, and Amber Riley are also some of my favorites.

blake lively: she always looks so glamorous and effortless

emma watson: she's just so down to earth and always wears unexpected but gorgeous clothes

taylor swift: i love her romantic, girly style

This thread is a little weird. I had an idea but I wasn't sure if people on here would go for it but, what the hell.

We all have Celebrities whose make-up and fashion have made us go, "Wow" at some point in our lives. This will be the thread to discuss those celebrities, post pictures, whatever, but it can also have a dual purpose.

See, I know a few users on here have their own guru / tutorial channels. I am not included in that list since I know next to nothing about make-up, but I thought this would be a good place to maybe list the tutorials we'd love to see, and maybe some guru members can take on the challenges.

I'll start.

I've started admiring Natalia Kills a lot recently.

She's hot as hell, and her make-up is pretty much the look I am going for (I would usually wear the red lipstick but, on days when I can't, the eye make-up would have to suffice).

I love her eyes in this pic.

I know her make-up isn't the hardest in the world to emulate but, I know nothing about make-up, and I'd like to see how to recreate her look.
I also love her make-up (and style... actually, mostly the style) in this video.


So... whose make-up makes you gasp in admiration, and whose would you like to see recreated in an easy step-by-step fashion?

I like Avril Lavigne now, but the only tutorials I could find are from unknown gurus with a crappy camera.

I don't like her music, but she does have some pretty cool make-up. I've always thought that. Any particular looks you'd like to see?

Lol, none that's specific. But I do like the makeup from her newest album.

Yeah, her make-up always really suits her.

KlairedelysArt recently did one on her smile video.

Also Natalia Kills is perfection.

I'm really liking Adele's makeup,
the thick eyeliner really works for her.

Quirky- talented- beautiful emilie autumn.
Love her [Victorian] style, and music.

OMG Emilie Autumn... I can't believe I hadn't thought of her. Amazing style that woman has.

Kat Von D.

She would be a perfect one to do, but I think she has some tutorials on Sephora that use her own male-up brand. I have the Love and Fury palette and I love it.
