What sort of makeup would be good for the first day of school? My eyes are greengraybrown, but I want to bring out the green. My BTS outfit is black, white, and lime. Thanks!




Hey girlie,

Since you have that pop of lime in your outfit, keep your makeup subtle and natural!  A chocolate brown eyeliner on the top lash line (blended out so it looks more natural) will be a great way to bring some quiet drama. Go with a shimmery gold or bronze on your eyelids to finish the eyes, then cap it off with a nude lip gloss! Smile

No offense but the model looks like a dumb blonde. LOL. She's pretty though but she took the picture ugh... the wrong way.

So I kind of want to...get noticed at school. I'm known as the quiet, bookish girl. I want to be...different. How can I change?




Hey girlie,

It's not good to go into the school year with the goal to "change" yourself. You are who you are! It's ok to be a little reserved and studious. Instead, try to challenge yourself to open up and be a little more comfy in your own skin. Check out this article for tips - I especially love the advice to push yourself and do something a little daring. Join a new club, set a big goal, talk to someone new or sit at a new lunch table. Just one little risk each day will mean a lot!

Hey! So in two weeks, I have my first day of school. I would wear makeup, but I'm not allowed to at school-moustiurizer and a TINY bit of sheer lip gloss at the most. I'm also not allowed to wear tights, scarves, big earrings, or bring a water bottle to class unless it's EXTREMELY hot. What can I do to look good?
Thanks!




Hey girlie,

No biggie! You just have to think of ways to accessorize and express your style in smaller, more subtle ways. Try a pair of stud pearl earrings in a fun color like light pink, black, or purple. Pull your hair up in a ponytail using a hair tie with a pretty bow attached or a cool pattern, like these: http://www.ulta.com/ulta/browse/productDetail.jsp?productId=xlsImpprod2390209 Add a thin headband and leave your hair down. Try one or two gold bangles for a subtle jewelry look. You can do a lot, even with these rules! Just keep an open mind Smile

MOD MOD MOD MOD this sounds interesting. but could you quickly give a 'checklist' to girls with uniforms? please?




Hey girlie,

Thanks for your suggestion! In the meantime, check out these articles for ways you can jazz up that uniform Smile

(The items might not be in stock anymore since the articles are a little old, but you can still use them as inspiration for the next time you're at the mall! And check out the stores we recommend because they're always full of great back to school stuff!)

Mod Mod Mod!!!
I fell in complete love with this top I got for the first day of school. But it's a one shoulder top, with an extra spagetthi strap, and I don't know if it's allowed - here are my schools rules -
- Student dress should not detract from a productive, healthy and safe learning
environment at school. Some examples are:
-- Short shorts/skirts (Shorts/skirts should be of appropriate length, fit, and must cover the upper thighs and must be longer than the fingertip when arms are
fully extended along sides and fingers fully extended.)
6
-- Tank tops/halter tops (A two-inch wide shoulder strap minimum is required on all garment tops (tank tops must cover close to the underarm area).
I really want to wear it!!! I don't think I would get in trouble - I don' know anybody at my new school so I can' ask them.Help!!!




Hey girlie,

Unfortunately, it doesn't sound like it fits your school's dress code. The one shoulder doesn't have a two-inch strap, so it's probably too revealing. Try pairing it with a structured blazer in a poppy color (yellow, red, royal blue) or a cardigan! Or make its big debut by wearing it with friends on the weekend Smile

MOD MOD MOD I want to start wearing makeup now that i'm going into 7th grade and i'm finally at a public school. Problem; my mother likes for me to just wear lip gloss 1. how can i persuade her into letting me wear a bit more 2. the code of conduct at school says nothing too flashy can be worn on my face. so do you have any low costing brands to help me out? Btw, i'm dark skinned.
Thank You,
Nirvana Fan




Hey girlie,

First off, check out this article about getting mom to say "yes" to makeup: http://www.girlslife.com/post/2010/03/17/mom-allowing-makeup.aspx As for subtle makeup, you don't have to spend a lot to get a gorgeous look! It's all about choosing one part of your face to highlight. This means: if you choose a pop of color on your lips, don't add too much eyeliner/eyeshadow. Keep it simple with mascara. And if you choose eyeliner/eyeshadow, go simple on your lips with a nude gloss or lip balm. Try NYX, L'Oreal or Maybelline products! <3
