Showing makeup...website?

Hello!

Well, basically, a while back a friend of mine suggested that I try to find a site (instead of FB) where I could post my makeup looks and whatnot.

I've been giving it some thought. I really want more people who I don't know to look at my stuff (simply because I think that strangers might be more inclined to point out the flaws of my stuff and then maybe I can get an idea of how I can improve! Happy)

Or should I just wait a while?
I always think my stuff is very amature, and when she suggested that, I thought she was crazy.
I'm just not even sure if it's worth my time :/

Anyone know any sites?
Thank you for your time!

aww everyone starts off as an amateur at first, darling! because remember it's all about practice practice practice!

Maybe it's just the tumblr whore in me, but there is a few themes on there:
http://www.tumblr.com/theme/11352
http://www.tumblr.com/theme/6012

that you could use and add the disqus feature (http://disqus.com/) and get feedback. Later on, you could always get your own domain name if you want and just share the linkage.

^_^ I doubt I was much help. but g'luck!

Everyone starts off as an amature in whatever they do, if they didn't we wouldn't have professionals Happy

I think this website would be a good place to start because although we are friendly we are also somewhat strangers, so we can give you the mixture of the two, hence the birth of loving critiscism. Since most of us are crafty and artistic and stuff we can give you an honest opinion without the harsh critiscism of a complete stranger.

You could do how-to video's.

I'm sure your styles are lovely!!

Well, I see people showing their lovely makeup on here (not always in tutorial form), but I couldn't figure out if it's something I should do :/ I do a lot of full-face looks.
I ended up getting a DA last night, actually (I have some friends on there who have one, so they are helping me get used to being a member lol).

If you are an aspiring makeup artist, try www.modelmayhem.com. You can also build your own website for free at www.yola.com. That's what I did for my modeling and makeup artistry exploits. ;)

lol
No worries, no worries ^_^
For sites like MM, I'm thinking of waiting until I have different faces to put on the site (I'd just feel...I don't know...weird? putting just my mug on there lol).
