First timie w/make up....?

i have extremely long black straight hair, a medium brown tone(i'm indian), have big petal shaped dark almost black brown eyes, and clear skin...........so i don't want to wear too much make-up or it will screw up my face and skin!!!!!!also please give tips on hove to get lighter skin...preberably natural remedies!!!!thanx.

Use black liquid eyeliner if your skin tends to get oily around the eyes, or pencil if you have normal/dry skin. For a little more drama, mascara works wonders! Indians have beautiful eyes, and everything else that makes them look the way they do. But imagine yourself with lighter skin... not YOU right? ditch that idea and thank god for giving you a cool ethnic background, culture, language, and genes!
