So true: throw some alcohol in the mix, cut the lights, bump some sick tunes on big speakers and you'll be spainkin that heiney til the sun comes up.

A tip: don't let her shower before she leaves and a lot of the makeup will still be there. Don't call her ever again and you'll have a fantastic memory that will stay with you the rest of your days.

Damn. I should get me some make-up.

I'd be curious to know how long that took, how uncomfortable all of that scum must be sticking to her face, and if she does that every single damned day.

Nah, it's not worth it. Soap the zits, get a tan, and smile. Leave the rest to fate.

Her skin would probably be more attractive if she didn't put layers of junk on it.

Most chicks wear about that much daily, particularly if they're Korean, but there's an awful lot of camera trickery making her look bad in the first few shots.

For my money, she needs only really needs a better cleanser routine to deal with the acne and a little eye makeup. A flattering hairstyle, a smile and a cute boy boy to make her blush would take care of the rest.

She doesn't look that much different when it's all done. The main difference is that she's smiling.

What is the white gunk in the third pic that covers zits 100%? Is it just sun block + camera trickery?

More than likely that's foundation primer.

She looks just fine to me, by about the 3rd photo. In my opinion the first and last photos look photo shopped. Her jaw is kind of bulbous in the first photo. You can't really hide that with make up.

No photoshop. The angle the last photo is at is flattering since looking up makes the eyes look bigger. Also the camera is farther from her face which changes how we view the proportions to the backgrounds and such.
If you know what a SIF is then you know how easy it is to manipulate how you look in photographs.

I do think she is a pretty girl to begin with.

Not sure about the last picture, but the first was definitely sharpened a lot in Photoshop to play up her acne scars. The little bit of fuzz along her hairline gave it away.

I agree about the camera, but I disagree with the term 'most'. I wear makeup if I'm going out of my flat, but that much? Never. I am a tinted moisterizer, lip gloss, powder, maybe-mascara kind of girl. What she is doing is excessive for every day, I think.
