Gosh… I was reading my earlier review and boy, am I embarrassed? Hehe… this is the edited and a bit more tolerable review!

Yes, you can look good too! There is nothing bad in applying make-up and that does not make you dumb(As most people have wierd notions!)! Looking attractive can do magic to your level of confidence, so why don’t we have a confidence build-up session?;)
Face
First of all, clean your face. Make-up on unwashed face accumulates on dead cells and leave ugly patches. If you have a clear, healthy face, you don’t need to apply heavy foundation, but you can use a concealer to hide those dark circles. Young girls should generally stay away from foundations or invest in some real good ones. Apply a translucent powder to hide that dirty shine and get that “oh-so-wonderful” glow. You can opt for a blusher to get that “drained out” look away. Choose from shades of pink to rusty brown.
Eyes(my fav!)
Applying an eyeshadow is very tricky and it would be a very good idea for first time users to get help. If applied in a wrong manner, it can make your eyes smaller, larger and definitely scary! Shimmery pink/ white eyes are totally flirtatious, earthy taupes and white have a matte and a natural effect while grey/blue/black can give a smoky look that looks awesome. White/pink eyeshadow above lashline will open up your eyes while a blue/gray one will make it look smaller.
I honestly prefer a brown eyeliner to a black one. You can apply it on your eyes as kaajal just below the lash line in the lower lashes! At least it doesn’t smudge and you don’t end up looking tired and worn out. For beginners, it may be a bit too difficult and messy but after a few days of practice it will give a very satisfying look!
A mascara is a must but please oh please don’t over-do it! If over-done it looks very fake and cheap. Use a brown mascara if you find black too harsh.
Lips
Sheer medium brown with pink undertones or beige lipsticks with a pink undertone flatter fair skins. Brown, warm reds will soften and look warm on medium skin.
Rich and deep pinks which tend to fall on warm look best on medium skin. Also pinks with brown undertones enhance and flatter medium skins very well. Avoid pinks that are too cool and too light as these pinks can make complexion look draining.
Anyways, I have always loved lipgloss(though they are very messy)! A clear gloss would be just fine if you don’t want to look made-up.(Tinted lip balms are so much preferable)
Tada! Is that you? Wait… don’t forget to do something with your hair! An awful haircut/hair can make even the most beautiful faces less attractive!
Wishing you hours of happiness before the mirror!
