Guys, opinions on these make-up styles? Girls, do you do them?

    I've been hit with a glitterbomb before. Glitter doesn't clean off, it has a half-life.

    Nope. Don't do the make up styles shown.
    I do do lots of things that seem to irk people, though.
    I have under eye circles and uneven skin tone so I use a touch of cover cream and then blend like crazy. Without plucking, I have a unibrow (I have not actually seen it since age 12) so I use a little eyebrow pencil for a finished look.
    My lips dry out or maybe I just like the slippery feel but I like glossy lipstick--dabbed after application to not smear or cake. And I wear a neutral-coloured lipliner because o/w I have trouble staying within the lines.
    No foundation.
    Blush, as I'm pale in the winter. My colour palette is matched to my skin tones(s) or neutral. Nudes, pinks, pale violet.
    Eyeliner pencil, not liquid, and mascara on top lashes for dress-up.
    I _do_agree that we women dress for one another sometimes. I can go days without seeing any women (or men, other than family) though so obv. I dress quite often just for me.

    I don't know how anyone can pull off blue eyeshadow unless going for a 'look'.

    I don't have a problem with people wearing makeup any way they wish but I don't like to see really young girls with it caked on as they still have the blush of youth and don't need to cover it up!

    I don't wear much makeup, frequently wear none. My eyelashes are naturally dark and long. It was difficult finding someone who would go minimal on my makeup for my wedding. According to that article, I over-pluck my eyebrows. I like it that way.

    Start by taking care of your skin - if you smoke ... stop. Heed Patrick Swayze's character (Vida Boheme)'s advice in "To Wong Foo, Thanks for everything! Julie Newmar" ... "moisturize, moisturize, moisturize". When it comes to applying makeup, try to think with an artist's sensibilities ... highlight, accentuate.

    Yes. A lot of women also wash their face with a product that is too harsh. Here's an article from the NYTimes on aging like a Frenchwoman that inspired me to use less soap. It also includes some make-up tips:
