I'm looking for makeup ideas (especially for the eyes) that have a "come hither" vibe. I want to look playful and flirty but NOT really intense. I basically want to catch my crush's eye and to wow him. Normally I just wear a little foundation, some black eyeliner on my lower lid, and some mascara on the top lid. I want to upgrade this without looking like a drag queen. lol. Please don't suggest lipstick/ lip gloss or sparkles, though.....that isn't the look I'm going for.

well, this would all depend on the color of your hair, eyes, etc...

i'll guess you've got red hair, since your avatar kind of hints at it... maybe a dark red? so for your eyes, i'd say a brighter shade of olive green on your upper lids, then a darker shade of either olive green or brown on your brow bone (not your eyebrow, you know the bone that kind of sticks out from your eyelid? that bone... :D)... and those colors will work best with brown eyes and blue eyes... green eyes, not so much...

for green eyes, i'd try just a neutral brown for the lids and a darker brown on the brow bone.

usually you can put about three coats of mascara on before it'll start to look like you're trying too hard. three coats is good. optional thin black liner on the top, thicker on the bottom. light peachy blush is really hot.

these will really only look super "hot" during the evening time... for daytime, less is more. just use lighter shades, less dramatic (maybe just one shade) and guys aren't huge fans of foundations and powdery faces... guys really like the natural look a lot more than women believe. :)



but beyond makeup, use your personality. :D that's what will never fade or wash off...

Haha definitely no sparkles, agreed. I'd suggest switching your black eyeliner from the bottom lid to the top. Close one eye and try to make a line across the top but don't go all the way into the corner of your eye, just to wear the lashes end on that side, however on the outer side of the lid... extend the line out a little bit past where your eye ends to creative seductive eyes. Wear mascara obviously and flaunt it.

Flirting is innocent and fun and light hearted and doesn't have to lead anywhere. Seduction is a means to an end, and it's meant to get someone in a certain position whether or not they would have chose for it on their own account. Seduction scares me a little. Flirting does not.

I can't speak for no one but myself......but PERSONALLY the more make up a girl wears the less attractive they normally are to me.



Rather than attract him with makeup why not try something different and playfull with your attitude and actions? A nice smile and a compliment go a long way. Especially the compliment....guys like to have their ego stroked.

I know this isn't what your looking for, but I've found from past experiences that guys perfer girls without tons of make-up, so I sugest a natural look... but if you really want to put more make-up on I sugest a playful color for eyeliner (ex. lime green) with a shimmery gold (close to your natural color) for backround... or do a smokey eye with black eyeshadow and blue tips (or whatever color you want)

well try not to wear tooo much.

i suggest you deffinitley wear mascara-but make sure your lashes are really long. then you can put some eyeliner on and a clear gloss. [if you dont have naturally full lips, i would also suggest you buy a plumping lipgloss thats clear]



hope i helped hun!

Pale pink or peach blush, and maybe chocolate or gray eyeliner instead of black (carefully smudged) ... try Eva Green's looks in "Royal Casino" ... super seductive, yet not too intense looks ...

watch memoires of a geisha



you don't need fancy makeup to seduce a guy



you need emotion from within (like on america's next top model)



pretty makeup + deer and headlights = look the other direction



seriously though...try EYELASH EXTENSIONS!!! they work wonders, and have fun with the shadow...if you do a purple or green eyeshadow and dust the with a little metalic you'll be drop dead gorgeous!!! ^.^



have fun and speak from inside :)
