less is more!!!!! it sounds like all you need is a little of the face powdwer and mascara maybe light eyeshadow, but i would just go with the powder and mascara and lip gloss.
Understand that a 'natural' look is one that uses colors that are right for your skin tone. How much you use, and where, depends on your personal style.





Make sure your concealer is yellow in tone since it mutes imperfections without adding color, giving your skin a natural look.





Apply foundation that matches your skin tone. The right foundation will seem to disappear on your face. If you are African-American, it's a good idea to have light, medium and dark shades of your foundation to allow for different gradations of color on different parts of your face.





Apply eye makeup in earthy tones'beige, brown, gold or plum for shadows and brown and charcoal gray for liner and mascara. Skip liner or shadow entirely if you want to keep makeup light.





Choose a blush color that is close to the color of your cheeks after you've exercised.
Instead of undereye concealer, try a slightly lighter liquid foundation just for that area, and blend it in by setting it with whatever powder you use. Concealers tend to be very cakey and best for small areas. Black eyeliner actually makes eyes look smaller. Try just using mascara.
Hm. I hate when that happens. Well, lucky for you, you could try AVEDA makeup [http://aveda.com/index.tmpl?ngextredir=1]





Aveda makeup is all natural! :] And, it's makeup isn't oily, so it dosn't clog pores. I'm pretty sure you can find nice foundation that doesn't look cakyy.





And, for the eyeliner, you might want to try sharpening the pencil so it's very pointy, so the line is thin, OR you could try a thin liquid eyeliner. Those always seem to work :]





And, try an oil-free foundation and apply it with a sponge, that might help a lot!





And use colors that complement your skin tone. Your pale, so try purples, im thinking.


And it's good your using mineral makeup, i'm pretty sure you can get that stuff at Aveda, except it's probably better. However, Aveda is expensive :[

Hope I helped :]





And hope it goes well.
I think you need to tan your skin. I believe that it's your pale skin that makes your make up too obvious even if you put only a little amount. So, when you are all tanned up, try putting the same amount of make up, and see the difference. Just buy tanning lotion or spray.
I had that problem with Bare Minerals too, too cakey and not enough coverage. I still think liquid is best. What I do is apply a moisturizer before my foundation to make it go on smoother, and then set it with a mineral powder (Physicians Formula looks very natural)





Black eyeliner is too harsh with your pale skin and hair color. Try using a more natural color such as brown or one slightly darker than your eyeshadow. You can even get a eye lining brush and apply some of your eyeshadow wet for a more subtle liner.
just were mascar and no liner. oh anf the best foundation is dior. its not cheap but it works
you mustn't wear too much make-up, but use foundation that is the same as your real skin colour, and apply little make-up,as in don't apply too much of anything..don't overdo it..use concealer which is for fair skin, for under eyes and blemishes


try wearing a lighter coloured eyeliner, instead of just pure black, like blue or even brown and add mascara, to make your eyes look larger..also, apply the eyeliner on your eye-lid(that line that's at the top of your lower eye lid)that makes your eyes look wider as well as thicker eyebrows


if they're too thin, then your eyes show that they're smaller


use a concealer and then apply the foundation ---if you do it the other way round, then the concealer will be powdery


also, spread the make-up around your face evenly with your fingers so that it's not too much
I use bronzer powder on my eyes as eyeshadow and ive gotten tons of compliments on it. I use eyeliner only on the top of my lashline. I also curl my eyelashes and use black mascara cause i have lighter eyelashes like you probably do also.
Liquid foundations are the best for non-cakey looking make up. And only apply a little powder of the top if you have oily skin. I use Revlon, and love it.


As for the eyes, have you tried using brown eyeliner? It still defines your eyes but isn't as harsh looking at black. When applying to your lower lashline, don't run it along the rim of your eye, that will make your eye look smaller. Just lightly apply a little bit on the roots of your bottom lashes, or slightly below and make sure you blend it it. Stop where your lashes stop towards the corner of your eye (towards the nose). Applying a small amount on the top of your eyes makes your lashes look bigger and your eyes more open. Just a thin line really close to your lash line works really well. And again, make sure you blend it really well.


Brown/bronze eyeshadow looks really nice with green eyes and can make your eye sockets look deep therefore you look like you have bigger eyes. Just don't apply up to your eyebrown, make sure you stop just at the brown bone.
If you want to use eyeliner try a lighter shade, like brown or grey or purple. I would also suggest spending more on a quality liner like Clarins or Elizabeth Arden. Expensive cosmetics have more pigment which means that instead of needing to press hard to get enough, you can use a very light hand and even a tiny amount will show up.
