Washed Out

**gYmgIrL** · February 15th, 2009, 06:28 PM

Hello!

How do I stop from looking washed out in photos? darker makeup? I always look so white and I'm part burmese! also, no matter how much eyeliner I put on, I look like a crazy zombie version of Avril Lavigne in real life, then in the photos it looks like I'm wearing none!

It might not help that I'm using floodlights from Bunnings I guess :P

But any suggestions would be supremeo awesomo, like where to get stage makeup or etc =D

In all the pics you have posted, I have never once thought of the phrase "washed out".

A tan? You should try... D-Boi Tanning Solution. I could give you a nice deal on it, 2 oz for 144.99 USD.

Do you mean your Face or your body, like your skin tone?

I was just wonderin' if any of the ladies who have photos often find that they have to have more makeup on than usual to stop from looking like you have none on, or if I'm doing something wrong.

I'm happy with how they're turning out at the moment, but wouldnt mind some tips and tricks for how to make it easier for myself

haha thanks guys you're the sweetest

You look great no matter what amount of makeup you're wearing. If it bothers you in the pictures, mess with the saturation in photoshop, or maybe take a look at the lighting that you have in the photos, as that could be a problem too?

yeah I find I am dark then look white in the pics and yes, have to really do out the make up for shots, I look vegas yet the shots don't reflect that, they undertone it.......
