Those girls are probably jealous that they don't have the confidence to wear makeup....and if it was more acceptable in your town....those girl would all be wearing hot pink lips too!

If other women are hating on you (and it's not because you're stealing their boyfriends or some other thing) then you're doing something right.

I think they are just jealous. Think about it: what kind of person openly makes fun of someone like they did? The kind that laugh at those less fortunate would laugh at anybody (like laughing at those who are mentally or physically disabled) - and seriously, if they are like that, who cares at ALL what they think? They are as good as dirt IMO... or else they are trying to make you feel less about yourself to bring themselves up. In which case you are just sexier than they are.

Them making fun of you can't change that so just keep being your sexy self.

That should be a crime punishable by loosing the ablity to use a make up brush ever again! I cried tears of pain for those poor brushes when I read this!

Here in Southern Cali, most girls wear some sort of make up or do on some days of the week. You typically don't get looked at in a bad way unless you're wearing a full face of badly applied make up. Sometimes people stare (either good or bad) if your face looks a little strange, but that's just how this species is programmed.

I wouldn't worry too much about those girls. There's really nothing you can do about how they behave. Some people are just like that. Troublesome.

She could be badmouthing out of feeling lost in your family if she's not the same race. Shoot, I went through it for only being half of a race, it makes you feel on lost ground. I was always more comfortable in shalwar kameez instead of doing the whole burqa thing, just wore the matching scarf to cover my hair. If she's another race, she might actually believe by slandering your family, it'll make her feel better. Tread with caution and just know she's unstable until she tries to beat her insecurities or until your uncle checks her one.

The Shimmering Nudes palette was the neutral shades palette but I like yours better. The colors are more like what I would usually wear and the bluish-silver color is freaking gorgeous. I'd buy the Lancome or Estee Lauder shadows for my boyfriend to stop complaining about my lack of neutral tones.

How bad did Punjabi MC hit over in the UK a couple years ago? Curiosity. That Beware album was amazing....Jogi....gotta love the cheetah in the vid.

Nope, my family is Indian and she too is Indian..I saw her today and my other aunt (sister of my dad) mentioned how good my skin was looking and the married in one piped up with "I'd expect my skin to look good if I put on as much foundation as she did" to which my other aunt calmly replied "Yeah but you put more on and you still don't conceal what needs to be hidden"..

It's funny you mention that having to fit in thing, Mr RR is white and since me and him have been together all the women in his family have been pouncing on my makeup stash and have started to be more adventurous in their makeup choices. His family are great though, they treat me just as they treat the daughters of the family which is more than can be said for how my extended family treat Mr RR but that's by the by.

Her husband has changed dramatically since he met her and he does anything she wants so yeah..

Punjabi MC was always big with the Indian folk in England, he had that one hit which went in to the UK charts and then carried on making music, he's released a lot more since then but it hasn't been released to the mainstream markets. Specialist and Tru Skool are my favourite though

I'm so blind, I just saw the shimmering nudes palette now and it's out of stock

I wish I had bought it..BB shadows are really nice and soft but my current eyeshadow babies are the Sleek palettes, gorgeously soft and under a fiver!

I've just seen the Stila sale link posted by Anita and Mr RR owes me so I'm dragging him (and, more importantly, his credit card) along with me to that sale..I can't wait!

I really don't get people who say things like that, are they seriously telling me that they get dressed in the morning hoping to not make themselves look better?

I've never really worn a lot of makeup out because I know my skills aren't that good (but thankfully they're improving) but some girls I have seen have amazing skills and if I was that good I'd be going out with a full face of really bright colours on too!

She buys a new brush every six months and doesn't realise why so many hairs fall out and the brushes get bent out of shape, yet she laughs at me because I'm careful with my non MAC brushes. I feel bad when I'm rough with THEM, god knows how I'd cope cleaning HG MAC brushes.

You are such a sweet heart. Yeah honestly these girls were looking horrible and that was no exaggeration.(and not to sound snobby at all) You know kinda dressed sloppy which slows the lack of confidence and self esteem they have in theirselves.

So jealousy is the right word. And like a prior post what would life be w/o haters? Which is so true.

Let ur haters be your motivators!!

People are just miserable. They don't think about doing something that makes them feel good about themselves, so when they see someone, who has pulled it altogether, they hate.

well for me, i grew up in a big city and so it wasn't uncommon for people to rock bright, dramatic makeup. when i do wear dramatic makeup in public, i do get stares but after a while, it doesn't matter to me anymore. i don't wear dramatic makeup to get attention. i do it cuz i like it and i think it represents me. u know what, who cares if they stare and snicker? it's probably cuz they don't understand makeup art so it's their loss. stupid people.

I thnk I should add some crap one of my family said today:
So one of my aunts sees all my brushes drying on the bed on a towel and says " did u go to MAC so they can show u how to put on makeup?"

Me: " um, noo why should I pay, when I learned from trial n error?"

aunt: because there are certain colours u shouldn't wear ( she was looking at my left eye which was pink n purple look I was trying out)

me: says who? anyone can wear the colours they want if it looks decent and put on properly, I can prolly show u some colurs

aunt: gives me a condensending laughs

* I should mention all my aunt wears is brown, she is a serious hater, like come on auntie, explore the magical world of makeup*

I wish someone would try and hate on my makeup. Then I'd break out a killer uppercut to their jaw! I swear, people can be so insecure at times.

As much as I love makeup, I don't wear it all the time, so when I do, I like to go all out. There have been occasions where I wear extremely dramatic makeup in public (not just bold lips... I mean I'll actually draw pictures on my face with eyeshadow). I know it's out of the ordinary so I expect to get a few stares, but I've never actually gotten "hate" from it.

I have gotten comments like "Kensie's a makeup snob/ know-it-all". I'm not amazingly perfect at makeup, but I have pride in my skill and knowledge, so yeah, if I'm better at doing makeup than you are, it's gonna show.


EDIT: Actuallly, I do remember when I drew my brows very defined (slightly draggish) and a girl told me I looked like I had just gotten botox injections. LOL

"Hate" may be too strong a word for what I experience but I do feel judged quite alot... My friends have called me superficial because I love makeup and they seem to think makeup (full makeup.. not just mascara and gloss) is a mask used by superficial people to be liked and attract men/women. Not to go off on a tangent, but good looking people fare better in the world and thats just the way it is. So some people may use makeup to cover up insecurities but I am sure that like me, many people on spectra view makeup as an art form; using our faces as a canvas to express ourselves and be creative. It just happens that our passion makes us look good as well!

Thank you spectra for giving us a place to teach and learn new skills!
