I have to agree with the recent Vogue article 'Minimum Make-up, Maximum impact' (August 2010), if you want to make a statement nowadays I think less is definately becoming more, although going out in absolutely no make up would be ridiculous, wearing only a light powder instead of foundation or leaving your lashes bare can give a great natural look without going too drastic and showing your blemishes to the world!
As let's face it the celeb beauty looks we envy most are those with a minimal, more sophistication covering such as we see on Kate Winslet or Kate Bosworth. Where as unfortunately, although everyone loves GaGa for her outrageous sense of style, thus far the only attention her caked face has got her is allegations that she is a man. not ideal...
