Ok. Here we go. No bottom liner. Wiped off most of the eyeshadow. Wiped off some blush and put on clear gloss.
Ya you are really pretty with out without. There is no doubt about that. But I think when you wear the makeup you look older than you do with natural face :-)

I would look into slightly darker lip colors (like a berry or rose) for when you want a slightly more made-up look. Otherwise, perfect. You're a pretty girl and you have many decades to wear a lot of makeup when you're older, so no need to start now

God, you're gorgeous! How do you get your hair like that? Step-by-step please!
I always curl it clean and blown dry. I do not use any product until the end. I use a large barrel curling iron and curl in spirals. Then I rat the top and smooth over. Then I spray generously with hair spray.
Do you run the curling iron to the end of your hair, and then curl up, or do you start curling at the top? Do you know what I mean? What do you mean rat the top?
You look great without makeup. Have you tried just tightlining your upper lashes? I love love love the Laura Mercier tightlining set. It's a big investment up front but the brush and eyeliner last forever and you just need the tightlining activating liquid

I start at the top and twist the iron around slowly until I get to the end of the hair and then I let it go. I hold the hair at the crown of my head straight up in the air and take a comb and brush down. Then it take the comb and smooth over the top so that the ratted part is hidden underneath.

The pic with less makeup looks so, so much better. I thought all the makeup in the first one looked a little cheap (sorry!) and that you look absolutely beautiful with less.
I'll try not lining the bottom. It just always looks weird to me. I hate that makeup is complicated!! I just want to look normal and put together.
I have a hard time not lining the bottom, too. I think I look weird without - like I"m missing 1/2 my eye
What I've been doing is a thinner line and not as much on the bottom. I still get the "lined" look but it's not so drastic.
It's okay to add something to the bottom, but so many people "draw" it on so harshly.
For the bottom, I like to use brown eyeshadow (based on my eye color) and then use a brush to buff it out. It gives it a really subtle look.
Personally, unless you have a really steady hand, I think eyeliner ALWAYS looks best buffed out. Otherwise it looks like you (general you) tried drawing and couldn't stay in the lines.

Most of the time when I try to buff I just smear it all over my face. Or erase the whole line off.
My new thing is to add a light colored eye shadow and 'draw' the thin line over that, no idea if it makes a difference, but I like the little bit of shimmer you can see under the liner.
