for a base - i hardly wear foundation these days, just concealer round the eyes, uneven bits, and translucent powder.

it'sreally important to have a good skin care regime.  and because of the dangerous sunlight a protective mosturiser with an spf.

i'vea pale skin with a few freckles acquiring during the summer months.

sometimesi wear no make up or very little - love those fruity juicy lip glosses from rimmel.  and i've a thing for dior eyeshadows.  now and again i get out my high heels and then i experiment with different colours.  why not?  don't be afraid.  make up should be fun after all

I actually disagree with a lot said in here. Not all redheads look bad in pink or light blue eyeshadow. I've noticed about MYSELF and I assume that means most redheads in general can pull off ANY color. I think this has a lot to do with our hair is in between blonde and brown. So whatever colors blondes and browns can pull off we can as well. :) Wearing brown mascara is great if you are going for a more natural look. It's true that we all have lightly colored lashes but that doesn't mean they require black mascara to look good. Brown mascara is actually pretty dark itself. Also I would like to mention wearing blue eye shadow with pink lips look GREAT.

Wearing not only pink eyeshadow and fushia/pinkish lips

Ok I messed up a little bit here are some pictures to prove redheads can look good in pink eyeshadow, blue eyeshadow, brown mascara, and pink lipstick.

Here's the pink eyes and fushia lips
