  • What's on your eyes? I really like it.

  • @marlindaw It's MAC Humid eyeshadow. : )

  • I like Painterly Paint Pot for an eyeshadow base. For along time before paint pots I used the MAC cream shadow in the tube(Stilife and Bamboom) as a base for my shadows. I am about your color and I LOVE red lipstick. I know so many black women that are afraid to rock a red lip. My fav is Russian Red. I line my lip with Milani lip pencil in Chanti and fill in my lips with MAC Cherry lipliner and then apply the Russian Red lipstick. I get so many compliments. :) You should try it.

  • @KokoGigglesLots I don't own Cherry or Russian Red, I'll check 'em out! Thanks!

  • because of your complexion, you really dont need makeup like that, you may like it but, you just dont need it. Many women need it

  • @1titans True!

  • Men are also bad about telling their girlfriends and wives they don't need makeup, but will turn their heads to look at a woman that is fully made up with false eyelashes,lip gloss,powder and the works...now I wonder why that is? The women they fantasize about on television...guess what they wear makeup! There are so many makeup beliefs that are just stupid that I hope women are getting away from. Colors are beautiful and I plan to enjoy all of them on my face and look good while I'm doing it!

  • well the makeup artist at mac told me the samething paintly was to light I thought of you and said no it's not I seen it on brown skin before and it not to light and make the eyeshadow color pop even more so I want it and i'm buying it today. he just looked at me but guess what he rung the sh% up you know why because i'm the one spending my money I looked back at him and give him the look like don't make me jump over this counter and whip your a%$ over a paint pot. (hahahha)

see all

  • Thats what I say.

    Because I'm darksin and I can't see myself putting on concealer and blah blah blah...and standing in the sunlight without looking like a caked up clown.

    To me I don't think most makeups are for darkskin...

  • 5★'s for this. :] Thanks so much, I know how you feel it's crazy when people say they won't wear certain colors b|c they're too dark to. I see bloggers and YT gurus always say "this color is cute on me but it isn't made for darker skin tones" ...lol. And in most cases some of those colors look crazy on them as well and looks better on darker skin tones... lol what a world we live in. :]

  • @427skies Thanks, you proved my point, again it depends on your complexion whether certain shades will either compliment you or clown you.

  • @Just2Intense No, there are certain reds and certain burgandys that people can wear. It's mostly the undertone that matters. If you have cool undertones you wear a certain type. Same with warm. It's not all light and dark.

  • Not True! You would have women looking like clowns. What is true is that all makeup shades is NOT for everyone, a darkskin woman with bright red or pink lipstick would look like a clown, plain truth. A lightskin woman with dark purple or burgandy lipstick comes across looking like Vampira, not a flattering look. Certain shades of lipstick/blush compliment particular skintones, that's why there're millions of shades to choose from since "1 size does not fit all".

  • WOW? you sound like your about to cry when you mention when an artist saying your to dark for ..... honestly wtf im a guy, why do girls even wear make up THEY TRICK US MEN MAKING US THINK THERE GOOD LOOKING WHEN THERE NOT!!!!!!!!!!! they look good with makeup for a night then you see em the next day they want to talk and they're fugly!!! seriously stop wearing make up it will save your emotions, your time and my time so i dont get stuck with stupid hoes.

  • Try Black Opal and Iman or the Maybelline Queen collection. It's really not that hard to find.

  • i wish i could like this a million times. THANK YOU!!!

    oh and you're gorgeous.

  • OH MY GOD I LOVE YOU SO MUCH <3 you made me so inspiredd!

  • Hey! I have been wearing Painterly Pots since I watched the video. Thank you!!! One of my must-have favorites and my daily eyeshadow base. My colors rock brighter and lasts longer. AND this pot will last almost forever, so the cost is well worth it. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
