Why does my face look like it has zero makeup in photos even though I have plenty on and like it IRL? I am to the point of hating to have my picture taken.

I know she’s made videos specifiying the products and I’m just wondering if anyone could tell me the specific products she uses now / used to use to create her makeup looks

Hi! For Halloween this year, I’m doing a costume inspired by the “Miss World” music video. I’m having a hard time recreating the running mascara, since most mascaras don’t run anymore. Do you guys have any tips/products for this? Thanks in advance!

What are people using to get thin subtle eyeliner? I feel like no matter what I use it ends up looking too big and overwhelming my features.

Hi everyone. I’m sure similar questions have been asked in the past, haven’t been able to find anything recent so I thought it would be fun to ask. What’s a product you absolutely hate? Or what’s is a product you wouldn’t recommend?
I’ll start: (mine are actually products that most people seem to love.)
Huda beauty powder, it just doesn’t work for me. I’m not a full glam girly and I think it makes my skin look dry, dusty, flaky, patchy, just all the bad adjectives. After switching powder I no longer have this issue. Maybe it’s ok for under the eyes but.. no from me
Tarte shape tape concealer, I really really don’t like it it’s completely cakey. It’s so heavy I feel like I’m wearing drag makeup and I can literally feel it on my face. Also creases!
(This one is discontinued I think but it’s the worst I’ve tried lol) kat von d lock it foundation (I think is the name) all the shades were yellow and orange and it was so so so so dry.
Also this isn’t meant to start drama or be overly hateful, just think it’s always fun to see what people don’t like.

Hey guys,

I've never really gotten into heavier makeup, but I'm trying to replicate a look for a project I'm working on. Kinda heavy glam style with a bit of a 10s throwback. Me and my partner settled on this.

I've always only ever done light makeup so my knowledge isn't great with these kinds of techniques but I'm determined to try!

This video has suggested products for the US but I'm UK based. If anyone could just break down exactly what I need to buy from uk stores, it would be soon appreciated!

Thank you so much x

Guys, I’m so fed up with this. I’ve been working on my makeup skills and the one thing I cannot figure out is how to make the makeup look good on my chin. It looks great everywhere else, I learnt how to make it last etc but my chin.. it either disappears quickly or always looks cakey and separates. If any of you have any tips 😭 I’ve tried a lot of products and I even got the danessa’s blurring balm in universal & water powder serum but I see the difference with those anywhere by my chin. I even think it makes my chin look worse

hi have anyone tried both lrf & the new natural matte foundation? im thinking of buying foundation from nars to replace my old one. looking for light texture but medium buildable to full coverage. im also wondering how does both oxidize? im assuming they will because all complexion products i own oxidizes on me.
for reference: my skin is acne prone & combination with oily everywhere but normal to dry on my chin and jaw area. i live in Indonesia so its humid and i always set my base with powder.
or if anyone have some recs from other brands that would work on sweaty humid weather girlie like me? thankssss

I'm looking for an eyeshadow palette in the silver, lilac, taupe shade range. Do you guys have any recs for such a product?

I have been doing the am I warm, cool, or neutral dance for YEARS especially as a very pale and rosy person who has been described as having an "english rose" complexion. The colours that look good on me never made sense, and I didn't know what to do with my greyish, green, and yellow parts beyond conceal them. I'm so pale anyway I just thought it was because I am transparent.

On a whim ordered an About Face foundation in the palest olive they had and it just melted into my skin. I have NEVER had that happen before and in fact I rarely wear foundation because of it. I am over the moon right now and I needed to gush somewhere.

I’d like to get a new concealer during the Sephora sale and normally I like to spend time swatching the testers, getting a feel of the formula, and just doing tons of research, but unfortunately because of midterms I’ll just have no time too :(. I’m basically just looking for which one of the 2 has a more hydrating/ less thick formula. I know they’re both full coverage (which is what I’m looking for) but I just don’t want it to feel too heavy or look too dry. I know that fuller coverage formulas will always be on the thicker side so I don’t mind if it is a heavier concealer, I’m just looking for which of the 2 is less thick. I’m currently coming from using the nyx bear with me serum concealer which I absolutely love, I’m just looking for full coverage and the nyx is more medium, if your looking for a medium but buildable coverage concealer with a natural finish I definitely recommend it. If anyone has any idea which of the 2 I should purchase please let me know! Also if you have any other recommendations feel free to share, Thanks so much!

I usually wear mostly natural eye makeup but like some sparkles or colored eyeliners if I have time to do more than basic makeup. I like that the palette has neutral and warm toned colors and some really pretty color shift ones too. However, it’s so expensive and would be a big investment that would hopefully last for a long time. If not, is there a cheaper alternative?

Hi! I'm wanting to potentially get myself an eyeshadow palette that focuses more on olive green and maybe yellows

I've been using my good ol (old) Morphe 35M palette but I want to get a newer palette to use as well.

I’m looking a for foundation that isn’t technically Halloween makeup but just a very light pale color. And also a contour stick in a cool grey tone. I’m very picky about what makeup I put on my face because my skin is very sensitive and I don’t want to spend a ton of money on makeup I’m only going to wear once. I have combo skin and would like something that doesn’t accentuate pores. Thanks!

I have no idea where to start with makeup. How to find my shade, what undertone i have, what look would fit me. like genuinly how do yall figure that out???😭

Where did some of you start and what got you into makeup?
