You are some what beautiful, thanks for your video recording. it’s sad im living in Buena Vista for the reason that i aren’t able to end up getting high quality makeup, nevertheless i get no fee samples of make-up through ‘Gratis Makeup Samples’. i adore Sally Hansen make-up!
striking techniques- thanks 4 sharin, have any of you tested MACs newest range of products? it’s hard to get cosmetics in Kangley yet i managed to receive magnificent cosmetics samples by using “Gratis-Makeup-Samples”, their handy!
you are great but i never wore make up and i need to know do i need some type of base concealer for my eyes or what? i have no clue and ppl please dont leave me nasty comment i was raised in an all natural house my mom didnt wear makeup and when i saw her wear it she just put on lipstick for her nursing graduation ceromony and i nver saw that lipstick again. so i seriously need help and all i want to wear is eye makeup and a little lipstick because i love my natural but ever now &t hen i want
the lighting sux. i can hardly see a thing
wow god damn. you people are stupid. Gold/yellows look great on us. I find it to be a compliment.
omg she didnt ean it lyk daht i am black as well and you guys are pretty busy if your argueing over gold eye make up . r u serious?
black is beautiful.
It doesn’t look good on white skin deal with it!
What’s wrong with her saying that the gold shadow looks good on black skin. It’s a fact, we look good in gold, black people are waaayyy to sensitive. Our sexy dark skin loves those shimmering colors, helloooo!!!
The model is gorgeous! I love gold too. I think she thinks gold is one of the best colors for brown skin.
haha wa? ppl r just to damn sensitive. if shed said she likes blue on black women would that have been offensive?? what if she said she “hates” gold on black women? wat if she’d said she “prefers”?? lool
i think its fine that she said gold looks best on black women…its very pretty because of the contrast and it picks up tones in our skin. and if you don’t want to wear gold in the middle of the day…don’t! save it for the night.
I don’t why that bothered me too. Just doesn’t sound right. Maybe she meant it’s one of the colors that look best on black skin.
so the lighting a little off and what about a normal day i don’t want gold on my eyes middle of the day
love the look!
bothers me that you said you like gold’s on black women…i completely disagree!!!
