While browsing for makeup for wedding day (with me thinking all the way why can't we just get one of my sisters to do that stuff):

Me: You look pretty dear.
Her: Does my make up look shiny?
Me: Uh, I think light just reflects that way.
Her: so it looks like matte?
Me: Uh, you don't look like a car.
Her: This is not helping.
Me: Can I get you to talk with one of my sisters? I really have no idea what I'm supposed to notice.

seriously though, don't worry about it. Even with my experience dealing with it, there's still a lot I don't know. Meh.




But some of these terms are also used in paint, like matte. (It's basically the "flattest" paint you can buy, it doesn't have shine/gloss.)

Yeah, I just like gave up and asked her to be reasonable on the price.

I was thinking about this about matte though:

I think it's normal for a guy to not know much about makeup, so you're on the right track..

Matte isn't a reference of the car - it's a reference to the pain only. Just like matte paint, matt paper, lamination films or in this case a matte mousse foundation. Just means smooth butt not shiny - in some cases can have a slightly rough texture, but usually quite smooth. You see, if there's too much shine in the make up the light will reflect badly off her skin and the photographs won't look perfect - which in her mind ruins her wedding day.

All yo needed to say was, "no, it's not too shiny dear. It's perfect." Just tell her the make up looks looks great - it accentuates her best features.

Just be glad she didn't talk about the colours. She'll be asking, "should we go for eggshell white, high white, ultra white, natural white or absolute white?" And this will be an extremely important decision.

Just look at her face and decide if it looks nicer with one kind or the other or equal and then give ur opinion you're getting married you should enjoy looking at her face lmao

She doesn't actually want to know if u understand the terminology just whether u like her more in one than the other and u must have some kind of aesthetic opinion on stuff in general otherwise she could wear a gorilla mask on d day and you'd be indifferent. If it looks the same just be like u look really hot in both lets have sex (this is all assuming you are the soon to be married with person asking for makeup opinion, if so congrats, if not sorry for the awkward)

pro tip : shiny means ur face is shiny and matte means matte, it's the same as for cars

herrderr it's chick stuff nd chicks r like aliens so this is not comprendo 4 me urgh not computed girlz

Flippin INTP autists god's sake.

I have experience with eye liner, eye shadow and mascara, but that's about it and I don't have much experience with any of it, but I do have some.

IDK what the fuck that lady in the video is doing, that looks like a shit ton of work and it isn't worth it IMO.

Okay here is first makeup lesson for INTPf :

It's paint on your face that is meant to decorate you in a way that enhances and highlights beauty and possibly increases either interestingness or sexual attraction.

Any questions ? I'm here all night and day.

Edit :

Second lesson for INTPf

The chick in that video is insane and brainwashed by beauty companies it must be unbearable to have all that greasy stuff on u like u would leave a mark in the face if u touched it. I guess she looks pretty anyway.

Got skillz with eyeliner brush though

This is why I know nothing about makeup. It feels sooooo gross; especially mascara.


Somehow still manages to know a surprising amount about theatrical stage and gore makeup

She is completely extreme though, like it just doesn't stop there's 5 layers of various pigments and powders on her skin alone and her skin is flawless in the first place (which actually makes me wonder if she doesn't have pre makeup on before the makeup lol)

God and nails like that would just incapacitate me haha

But if it gets her through the day power to her

Edit : okay I'm like 90% sure she's wearing eyeshadow already at the start.

Higs, why is it not okay to have pores seen through makeup. Wouldn't people not notice them from a distance anyway? It's not like you're going to have a very close-up pic during the wedding proper.

I'm tempted to suggest a gorilla mask wedding, but my fiancee and parents would greatly disapprove.

The only time I tried make-up was my completely failed attempt at a L(death note) cosplay... yeah. Make-up when done right seems to be more subtle rather than covering everything with a thick layer of it. At least from our perspective.

uuuh...just looks less smooth and healthy i guesss ?

it's becuz it's not for the photos but for u silly I imagine :o unless u plan on staying at a certain distance from her the whole time, also if it's one of those professional photographers their cameras are amazing you can see even tiny pores also might want close up portrait style of teh bride, just get photoshop or something if she cares that bad lmao

also why is the forum not invited to your wedding do you realize how awkward this is for all of us now
