Which of these looks best brings out my features and suits my colouring? I'm a fair-skinned blonde with blue eyes and freckles. Are there specific aspects of certain looks that work, and others that don't? Would appreciate some honest insight — thanks

You may roast my makeup technique, not my appearance. 24 year old me was a very fragile and manic girly 😂

I was going through old posts and 2021 was something else. I don’t know her 😂🫪🫣 I’m thinking of trying these looks again but 2026-style.

This was before my eyebrows were tattooed, before I started wearing lashes, and before I had my lips filled. I had no eyebrows, not one hair. They were drawn from scratch. 😂 Everything was FaceTuned to high heaven. My lips were a lot thinner back then.

I wasn’t listing what I was using back then, so I don’t have anything definite. However, all of my colourful eyeshadow was from BPerfect carnival XL pro and the loose glitters/shimmers from Blushing Rose Cosmetics (discontinued).

Thankfully I’ve been doing makeup since 2016 and I know what the hell I’m doing now. Please post your bad makeup phases so I don’t feel alone 😂

I’ll also post non-edited recent photos for comparison + product list!

My current vibe is clean girl no-makeup makeup.
It’s so hot these days that I’d rather keep it super minimal and let my skin breathe instead of piling on a bunch of heavy products.
But if there’s one thing I refuse to skip, it’s lip. (Without any color on my lips I look straight up dead.)
The problem is regular lip products just wipe off in the summer heat, so I only go for ones that actually stain well.
What about you guys? Is there one product you refuse to give up when doing summer no-makeup makeup?
And how does my summer routine look?

My Summer Routine
Base: d’Alba sunscreen (not sticky at all, gives a natural glow and cleans up the skin tone)
Shadow: MYSTER ROSEY Nudes 2 Series Mini Eyeshadow Palette (just pick one soft neutral shade and lightly sweep it on the lids)
Mascara: Maybelline Colossal Mascara (just a light curl, nothing clumpy)
Blush & Lip: Etude Water Tint (stains really well and has that clear pretty color. Super easy to use on both lips and cheeks. Total summer multipurpose hero)

I can’t tell if this looks good or too much. I have long-ish but sparse lashes. I’ve been trying to find a mascara that doesn’t smudge under my eyes throughout the day. Idk i feel like i’ve done something wrong 😭

I love this product, it has the absolute most beautiful finish but mine has broken. I can still use it but have to be very careful not to drop it. Based on the reviews online, breaking seems to be a common issue with this product :(. I’m wondering if anyone knows any other brand of blush that has this amount of shimmer? Thank you!

Product is Essence Soft Baked Blush and this shade is shade 30, Rose All Day.

So my mom got me this foundation recently from a mall since I've been asking for a new one for a while now cuz I js ran out, so when she went out she came back with this sheglam complexion foundation (but the box said it was the skinfinity hydrating foundation).

First I didn't think much of it ignoring the red flags but I couldn't really brush it off anymore the moment I wanted to check out some of the reviews of the foundation n saw that the bottle and packaging of the influencer's foundation compared to mine are completely different. After that I scoured the internet as much as I can and after a while the only thing I found was Instagram and Facebook post with the same bottle and box but in a diff language nothing official at all.

I'm rlly convinced that the foundation is a counterfeit but since my mom bought it for an expensive price (expensive for us and especially for me since I'm still a teen that rely on school allowance) I'm trying to convince myself it isn't, but I just can't. I'm js really pissed at the people that would even make counterfeit products of already cheapass makeup

All of the things I want to know is:

Is it an actual counterfeit? (For confirmation)

Is it safe to even use?

If it isn't safe to use then whats the best cheapest drugstore foundation that is long lasting and doesn't badly oxidize? (for everyday use and cosplay)

For additional info:

The foundation smells like baby powder

There isn't any other text on the bottle other than the one in the picture

I already threw away the box

The bottle lid makes a noise when it slightly turns

I’m 34, with dry skin and have been dealing with my concealer 😭. Yes I do have concealer in that picture, i usually use Nyx bare with me concealer in Beige, or Rare beauty concealer in 170W. Yes it helps and looks better than wearing nothing, but it still doesn’t look good. Help me find a good concealer please.

I feel like I’m missing something in my daily look. I wear primer, brow gel, foundation, concealer, contour, blush, bronzer, highlight, mascara, eyeshadow, powder, lipstick and liner D: graHhhH. Im just not satisfied but i guess im used to do really extreme alternative makeup. Can’t right now because im starting a new job. Also side question does my foundation match be honest?

I’ve tried soo many concealers, drugstore and more high end. None of them cover my acne. Even with green primer, green concealer first, other types of primer. It almost goes over it and makes it look dark brown or still red? I am at a lost. Any recommendations for a concealer that will ACTUALLY conceal super red acne/scars? It’s like none of them will stick to the area. I put layers on, blend it in, and it doesn’t cover. It’s so frustrating and I’m very self conscious. Any suggestions would be amazing!!

I came across these lipsticks (they're marketed as lip glosses) just recently, but they seem to have been sold out some time ago. I know these pictures are most likely edited to death, but does anyone have any metallic lipstick dupes for these, true to the color shown in these images?

Tried new products i bought today and im really struggling with making my bronzer look less muddy, but also snatched🫠 I usually use a loose powder to define it but i think its the bronzer

Bronzers:
elf camo liquid bronzer shade 4
too faced chocolate soleil bronzer (idk shade, medium??)
