This is the easiest way I have found to do my winged liner. I have semi hooded lids so smudging some black/brown shadow right in the folded area helps prevent that weird hook that happens. Don’t mind my weird bugged out eyes. It’s my makeup face. 😂

Hi everyone,

I've never really been into make-up that much until recently. I started using an eyebrow pencil like 5 years ago, mascara around 2 years ago, and a lip tint maybe a year ago. So not the hardest things to master.

I found the NYX Ultimate 'I know that's bright' on TikTok and fell in love with its colours; immediately bought it (I know, bold choice for a starter). Along with it I bought Catrice's Drunk'n Diamonds Jelly Topper. I've worn the topper with just some mascara because I liked the glittery look, and lately I've been wanting more. More colour. More everything.

So I tried something, but it feels off.... I'm hoping y'all could help me & give me some tips.

I know the mascara isn't the best because I applied it quickly to get it over with haha. For the looks I used the aforementioned palette and the jelly topper. I used the dark blue & light blue for a small gradient with jelly on top. And I tried to use the dark pink glitter with jelly (silver) gradient, but I feel like it just looks messy.

I did blur my iris, at first I planned on scratching them off the picture but I was scared it might look scary haha, so I did this instead.

My usual routine is cera ve or la Roche moisturiser, Anastasia Beverly Hills foundation and sometimes I use primer but most of the time I forget, no setting powder. I feel like this has only recently started happening in the last few months

Having them filled in and closer together really makes a difference, people would say I have wide set eyes but I think it was just emphasized because of my eyebrows being far apart. (I overplucked them when I was a teen)

I am new to stage makeup 💄 My daughter, 5yo, has her recital in 2 weeks. The studio is more relaxed and lets us decide what we do. We can do nothing or full glam. I have figured out my face and what I like on me. But I’m a 32 yo woman 😂 this is what I did real quick with a couple cheap things I bought and some things I already had. The lips and cheeks are a pink, elf lip+cheek stain. I already know the eyebrow color is not her match (it’s mine lol). I’ll fix that.

Please send me in the right direction because this just doesn’t look right lol #sendhelp

i feel like i do a completely different style every day but i guess i kinda wanna know what’s the best type!!

2nd and 3rd slides are my bare face.
Second to last slide is what products I use.

I know pretty much nothing about skincare or makeup, I just get my sisters hand-me-downs and whatever looks like it could fit in the right place.. is put. I look dryer than the Sahara desert. I got the primer and setting spray today, the results are the last slide and the one before showing the products.

I don’t know where to begin. I have no clue about anything. I look like a sun-dried ghost.

Please help me🫪🫪🙏

i have dry, acne prone skin, what should i get?

(i wear saie foundation, too faced concealer and kosas pressed powder)

I recently opened a brand new Too Faced Chocolate Gold palette that I had bought in 2018 as a back up since I loved the colours of the original. However, I could see some discolouration on some of the colours. Not sure if the photo has captured it properly but there’s something on the surface it seems.

Similar thing happened with my Naked Heat palette on a couple of shades.

Since I love both palettes, I’d ideally want to be able to still use these 😩

Any ideas on what it might be and if there’s a way to safely remove this top layer?

Thanks in advance! X

I want to expand my makeup skills because I only know how to do natural no make up looks. I’d like something more mature and sexier.

I really like grungy and cool toned looks but I don’t know if that works with my complexion or if I’m just doing things wrong. I usually only do eyeliner and mascara bc idk what else to do

so it might be because of my lip filler but seriously no lipliner looks good on me.
is it skill issue or is it the anatomy of my lips?

first picture: only lipliner (makeup forever - anywhere caffeine)
all the other pictures: same lipliner but with sparkly lip oil.

am i delusional? do i need another shade? another technique? please help!!

I’m a complete beginner I wanna learn how to do this 😭

I’ve took the advice for a more brown lip liner and it’s gorgeous although it’s subtle I don’t like too much I would love more lip products that would suit me but thank you everyone soory for my bare face I look 18 I’m 24

This is my third attempt at applying an eye shadow.

I used an eye primer and the bobbi brown cream stick as my base.

My goal is to be able to do something very bright and flashy for pridefest first week of June.

Any tips or advice is welcome.

Hello,

I've got a textured skin due to acne scars. Whenever I wear foundation, it doesn't hide it instead make it more prominent. I've got some hyperpigmentation around my mouth. I don't use eyeliner usually as it's never looks equal. Sometimes, I get lucky and apply it perfectly but I don't think the shape is suitable for my face. I have used the following products:

First photo-

Estee Lauder sheer foundation 3N1.

Judydoll 3D curling mascara.

Lakme unreal precision eyeliner.

K beauty panache lipstick

Second photo-

Sunscreen and lipstick. I would like to know how to hide the scars better, get an even skin tone and the eyeliner shape that would suit me best. Thank you.
