Yea, they do look similar. Shaghayegh (I will never call her Claudia Lynx, btw. It is such a stupid porn-star sounding name.) has more perfect features though. Then again, it could be plastic surgery. I still vote Shaghayegh, she's the underdog.

Maybe you guys could help me!! Since a good majority of you are deeply olive skinned, do you recommend any foundations for someone with very yellow undertones? MACs NCs do not work well enough for me. Hope to hear your suggestions!

I'm not very olive toned, I have slight cool tones that lean more towards neutral (I wear NW25 in MAC). My sister is darker and more olive (Maybe an NC35 in MAC) and she wears Perspective foundation. Apparently they have a much wider range of colours so maybe give them a try.

Does anyone have an explanation why that heavy - opaque foundation look is favored so often?
Where I live there are many middle eastern people and I never see the girls or women wearing makeup similar to that, so there seems to be a cultural explanation for that look...?

Yeah, I wish I knew why they do that

They do their eyes beautifully but the foundation is often too heavy

there was a lebanese singer, i forgot her name but she was really beautiful and i adored her eyes. i think she is dead now

It's favoured to make the face look more flawless and illuminated.

I think that singers and models wear that heavy kind of make up because they get photographed a lot and they only wear it when they have to shoot videos or go to interviews etc.

That's why the girls who live near you don't wear it often. It's only for special occasions (weddings etc)

But we do love our eyeliner, filled in eyebrows and long exotic black hair!

I love applying Arabic eye makeup, I think it is so beautiful. Everytime I visit a Middle Eastern country, I envy the women who apply it so well!

It might be cliche, but I like to emphasize my big eyes with black kohl eyeliner.

Ramona Amiri is also a gorgeous ME woman. She competed in Miss Universe in 2007, I believe. She is half Assyrian (from father) and Persian (from mother)... good mixture I think! Look at that face! <3
