I have a very low confidence and look so ugly without makeup

AIexRusso_’s Profile PhotoAlex Russo
Makeup does not turn a pig into a princess, what you're seeing in the mirror is a reflection of your confidence and self esteem. You do know that what you see in the mirror is 90% perception right? You see what you feel about yourself. I've been there, I have body dysmorphia disorder and I know what I'm talking about. FYI, black makes your eyes look smaller-prettier sometimes but smaller especially on the waterline. Makeup makes a difference but the difference isn't that big, just enhances your natural beauty. You need to stop calling yourself ugly, and love yourself with & without makeup. If you try, you'll get there eventually. There are many different types of beauty and flaws are not always bad, sometimes they add beauty in fact so, try to build your confidence up and I suggest putting the makeup away for 2 weeks. Wearing it constantly helps you forget your natural beauty.

How can i Take Photos Like a Pro?

SeIenaOwnMe’s Profile PhotoSelena Own Me
Go out (or in studio??) and take LOTS and LOTS of photos, try diff. settings, focal lengths, whatever.
You will get to know your camera/s and how to get the shots and effects that you want.
With digital there is nothing to hold you back. Get a high capacity CF or SD card and practice

I am so unconfident without makeup!! Grrrr.........is there any tips on being more confident, or looking better without makeup?

SeIenatorsLatinas’s Profile PhotoSelenators Latinas
Hard to be confident when you think you don't look better without makeup, but actually anyone and everyone looks better without makeup. As long as they take care of their skin and health of course, because your health is reflected on your skin.
1. Drink more water, the more hydrated you are, the brighter and healthier your skin (face and body) will look and become. I know everyone says to drink more water, but there's a reason why Everyone is saying it. And sadly not many seem to listen.
2. Exercise. Exercising will help increase the blood flow in your body, and may help give you that natural flush (blush) on your cheeks. Exercising is a very important part of being healthy.
3. Eat right. You are what you eat, so if you're eating sweets, junk food, fast food, then that is what you are. Your skin will reflect the types of things you put in your body, because the better the ingredients/foods, the better and more vitamins and nutrients you will be taking in, which means your body will function better, and thus so will your skin.
4. Let your skin breathe. Go a few days without makeup. Stay indoors if you feel you have to, in order to accomplish this. You may notice your skin improve dramatically (as I do with mine, because foundation seems to make my skin worse really fast)
5. If you really can't go out without makeup, try looking at natural makeup. Makeup that looks natural yet beautiful and barely covers anything. It will help you get used to your beautiful bare face, yet help you conceal areas you're still afraid to show (acne, dark circles, etc), and accentuate other areas (blush, pink lips, lashes)
As your skin improves, put on less and less makeup, until finally you can go out without any makeup at all! (the natural makeup should not require much makeup at all. you should not be covering more than 10-20% of your skin)

If u spray makeup on ur face does tht help the makeup stay on longer?

SassySG’s Profile Photogirls rule the world
No. It is one of the worst makeup advices someone can give. It doesn't work and it will irritate your face. MAKEUP SPRAY is what will keep your makeup in place with a routine that avoids specific ingredients.
1) Start morning off with cleansing and toning with something oil free, gentle for your skin type.
2) Apply pure aloe vera gel as a moisturizer. It is cheap, natural, soothing, rebalances all skintypes and hydrates while leaving a healthy matte never overdried finish which is ideal underneath makeup.
3) Apply MAKEUP SPRAY after aloe dries/absorbs. The best at keeping makeup in place are: Skindinavia, No More Shine, Urban Decay (now that they've switched to using Skindinavia's formulas), Premiere Products INC, Ben Nye, Kryolan, Etude House Mist. They actually work unlike elf, mac, makeup forever, kat von d, model in a bottle.
4) If you wear a primer, make sure that it is OIL FREE AND free of heavy silicone because those will make you greasy/sweaty and ruin staying power. Use a primer from a brand like fyrinnae, lorac, illamasqua, larenim, They are better for long wear.
5) If you wear anything from a foundation to tinted moisturizer, concealer, blush, bronzer, luminizer/ highlighter etc, always make sure that it is oil free. Read ingredients before purchasing even if something claims to be matte because it could and oil must be avoided.
6) Set your face with a good setting powder. The best at shine/sweat control that don't cake or appear ashy ghastly are from the brands:
jurlique
crabtree and evelyn
tarte
mattify! cosmetics
la minerals
lucy minerals
meow cosmetics
lumiere cosmetics
aubrey nicole
bellissima truco minerale
eshiko
face front cosmetics
flawless minerals
ere perez
youngblood minerals
physicians formula
ella rose minerals
everyday minerals
7) Apply one of the sprays after doing your eye makeup/filling in brows if you regularly do them.
Your makeup will remain fresh in place all day. No need to retouch, reapply, blot, worry about makeup getting oily, oxidizing, fading or rubbing off.

I know sometimes we think life is boring or pointless and that there's no reason to live, but listen up pls. life is so amazing. there's forests filled with beautiful creatures and plants, there's oceans filled with all sorts of strange aquatic life and interesting things, there's beautiful sunsets that paint the sky with rich colors, there's nights where stars shine bright and make constellations for us to see, there's cities filled with different buildings and busy people, there's caves and caverns, there's rainbows and the sounds of birds in the morning, oh my gosh there's so many wonderful things and you're actually sitting in your room saying that life is pointless and you want to die? i know there's going to be hard times but just look at the beautiful world you have the opportunity to live in. make the best of it while you can!! there's far too many amazing things for you to just sit in your room all the time thinking about the negativity in situations, because there's so, so much positivity if you choose to see it.

:( You're great!

BieberZone69’s Profile PhotoBieber Zone
hey you, stop being unhappy with yourself. you are perfect. stop wishing you looked like someone else or wishing people liked you as much as they like someone. stop trying to get attention from those who hurt you. stop hating your body, your face, your personality, your quirks. love them. without those things you wouldn't be you. and why would you want to be anyone else? be confident with who you are. it will draw people in. if anyone hates you because you are happy with yourself then you stick your middle finger in the air and say screw it. my happiness will not depend on other anymore. I'm happy because I love who I am. I love my flaws. I love my imperfections. they make me me. and 'me' is pretty amazing.
