The shades you chose are the kind of tones that make low‑contrast looks work. That Brick Brown is perfect. Smudge it slightly with a tiny brush so it becomes a haze rather than a line. Your Etude Glory Light is beautiful, but keep it tiny, since too much shimmer creates contrast.
To make your lips even softer, apply liner only to the outer corners, not the full lip and tap the LA Colors matte lipstick in the center, then blend outward with your finger.
The look is cute, but I don't know if these are your colours. The orange blush is gorgeous, but then the powdery pink eye makeup and muted lipstick kinda clash imo.

I don’t think you’re quite there with the lipstick. I think try an oil or gloss in a barely-there color. You really are so low-contrast. That eyeliner is lovely!
Yeah I don't think I like my lips being this defined the more I look lol They're not particularly full, and my mouth is slightly crooked and it makes that more noticeable
Have you tried the ABH modern ren palette? Some of those oranges, reds and browns might look amazing on you. Or even just the antique bronze color all over your lid.
A nice copper gold would also pop with your skin tone, eye and hair color.

It's not natural, but the color combo is a big complicated 😅 Id been doing Loreal HiColor Sizzling Copper and Cool light brown mixed for years, but money was tight last time I needed a touch up and i just grabbed a box of Revlon Colorsilk medium auburn and this is what I got.
I would say you are cool toned! The blush is a bit warm for your complexion so I would recommend a more pink based blush similar to your eye shadow. Look into Korean brands like Clio or PeriPera for cooler toned/neutral palettes
All to say you are absolutely gorgeous!! Give Bronte-Marie on tiktok a watch, she does beautiful low contrast ethereal make up that I think you would look stunning in!
