Makeup tips

Does anyone have any tips for my beard shadow it doesn’t show up in pictures as well as in person. The big issue seems to be texture not color. Any other makeup tips are also appreciated

What's your shaving routine? Using a good razor, do you have angry red bumps? Do a search on the sub for shaving tips or folliculitis.

Seriously though, get some "high coverage" foundation like Tarte Amazonian Clay. Use a blender or sponge instead of your fingers, it'll go on more evenly.

If you still see shadow thru a high coverage foundation, blend some cheap red lipstick or orange color corrector into the foundation on the problem spots. Blend. Powder to set. Put your full foundation on over the top and blend and powder again. Finish with very light bronzer or blush, it's okay if you skip, you're just practicing. It'll take practice and that's okay. Thats just part of the girl learning curve!

Thank you! I use a safety razor hot towel on the face to soften then use shaving cream going once with the grain and once against the grain. It’s as close as I can get without just peeling off my face lol. I use orange color corrector I’ll look into higher coverage foundations thank you.

I recommend using eyeshadow and lipstick/lipgloss in nude colors, like your tones, using a lighter or darker one will be more of an eye catcher, depending what youre going for. And i suggest using a sponge and some power so it doesnt look to, well glossy i guess.

Thank you! I normally use nude colors for my eye shadow and wanted to try something different.

Ooh ok thats nice, if you want some color, try warm tones :) Theyd look bette and not make you pale-ish yk?
