So, it's probably time I FINALLY started wearing make-up. Any ideas what sort of thing?

Oh you're beautiful, no enhancement needed really.

I never wear make-up and I do wish it was because I was as naturally pretty as you. Nope, am lazy oik who wouldn't know where to start.

I am no expert on eyebrows on anything make-up related ... but here goes.

For the eyebrows, I find that drawing them in really frames the face. I wouldn't pluck everything out and draw in back in - won't work unless you have a totally groomed look and get professional help.

Just look at the natural shape of the eyebrow and pluck out any stray hairs above and below that shape. Then use eyebrow pencil (dark brown for you) in light strokes, along the lines of and as if you were colouring in each hair for a natural look.

baby oil is ok for make up removal - I use make up removing wipes (Boots unscented) and second Juicy Tubes - they are fab !

Displacement, first picture is now the best. Most natural and attractive.

Drawing your eyebrows instantly makes your face more dramatic and gives you a groomed look, but in a subtle way. I presume you are wearing mascara, another discreet accent.

Your skin is great so you only need light foundation. I find mineral make up quite good for casual days: LilyLolo. It works by dusting the powder foundation on and takes seconds to apply. I only use liquid foundation for work and more formal occasions.
