Boudoir Make-up???

I agree that it is all about the eyes. Go for a smoky look, maybe even with fake eyelashes. I like MAC.

 

Your make-up should probably be darker to show up better in pictures and have the "high class hooker" look.

I had heavy makeup on..even red lipstick that I never wear. I like Alyssa's explanation - Class Call Girl look lmfao

just out of curiosity, why would you not suggest Bare Escentuals for this?

Yes! I would love to see some pics when you receive them! Thank you! I appreciate everyone's responses! I'm just nervous about getting my make-up done I suppose, because I always do it myself. I'm sure it will look great!

When I got mine done I thought I had WAYYYY too much eye liner on. It looked horrible to me, but in the pictures it looks great. The makeup girl was doing my makeup and I was freaking out. When Jeremy walked in he commented on how great it looked and I figured he would know best. It ended up looking much better in the photos.
