I got a free makeover today at the Este Lauder counter at Dillard's. I learned more about make-up and I got a free picture taken of me by a professional photographer. I also asked the lady there to take some photos with my camera.
I wore jean shorts with a fuchsia top and sandals. Normally when women go for makeovers they don't wear makeup to the store but I didn't feel comfortable dressing en-femme with no makeup. I wore some light make-up there and the girl there took it off and started from scratch. One of the things she did which I never thought of is line my eyelids with a black eyebrow pencil. Surprisingly it looked good and did not give me raccoon eyes. LOL She also used some bronzer on me under my cheek bones to highlight those areas, put on some pink lipstick and finally some pink eye shadow on my eyelids with gold on the brow bone. She also used (what else!) pink blush.
Three different make-up ladies there commented that they were jealous of my eyelashes. I was fortunate to be born with long eyelashes as a guy. I told them they could have my eyelashes if they let me have their bodies. LOL
Of course I didnt see you before the makeover hahaha, but the pics are lovely!
I've been into a few stores like this enfemme myself, but never been lucky enough to score a free makeover gah! How did you swing that?
You look great, thankyou for sharing the pics xxx
Thanks!
Well Este Lauder was running the promotion at the Dillard's in the mall plus a free picture taken by a professional photographer. They said they'd call me in a couple of weeks when it is ready.
Way to go Steffie, most of make up girls on the counters in department stores will give a help and at least a partial makeover if you get them at the right time. I have had help and make overs from a few, a couple of times by appointment. Only once when I had a full make over by appointment did I arrive with no makeup at all, as I walked from the car park to the store I never felt so naked, it was a bit like that dream when walk into the school and find you have no clothes on and then...........

Just because you don't believe it, that doesn't mean it's not true
