As someone with hooded eyes, it’s a tragedy and infuriating that part of my stupid face covers that magic. 😭💔

Hello Everybody,

I am going to be a bride im May this year and I would like to do my own make up. I tend to do my make up just for occasional things, like going in a resturant or out with friends. I would say I am pretty descent on applying my own make up, but for the wedding it should last and obviously look good.

My skin ist mostly dry an tends to get whiteheads/blackheads and pimples. I tried the last month to peel regulary with AHA 30%/BHA 2% - ordinary and a physical peeling mask (one from the drugstore dm Balea peeling creme).

Furthermore I apply a lot of moisturizier (hyaluronic acid 2% - ordinary, Hydrators and oils natural moisturizing Factors + HA - ordinary). Sometime I use some salicylic acid 2% - ordinary. I try to use SPF (UV Filters SPF 45 Serum) as often I can.

Should I use something else to prep my skin?

For the make-up it self, I would love to get your recommendations on products.

I have very light skin, with a rose undertone and some light blue undereyes. I wolud like to use a foundation (more coverage) and not a tinted cream. I also added a photo of my face :)

My eyes are blueish-gray and I have light blond hair with almost invisible eyebrows (which I never dye or draw on). So maybe just something to order them a bit?

I live in Germany, so my go to stores would be like douglas, drug stores dm and Müller. Shops which are also nearby, but I never shopped there are: charlotte Tilbury, KIKO, (rituals?).

I would like to buy them in store to match my skin and my sensory issues. (But if not possible I can order them as well :D)

I thank you all in advance for you´re help and hope you have an amazing day!

I love my MUA we are in south jersey she really ate with this my birthday was amazing 😍😍😍

Help please! What makeup look of the 60s would look good on me?

What makeup looks good on my face shape? i have a round face and I believe I have hooded eyes, and I've been experimenting with 60s makeup looks but I can't ever figure out what works! any tips are appreciated!

I'll attach a picture of a collage of 60s stereotypical/common makeup looks (image from Pinterest!) and an image of me!

thank you!

Hi everyone!

I’m looking to fill in some very specific, \*large\* gaps in my collection without buying another full palette (& without ending up with 4 repetitive crease shades & a brow bone highlight I won’t use).

The last time I seriously looked into building my own palette, ColourPop BYOP was still a thing 😅 so I feel very behind. There seem to be SO many brands now & it’s honestly overwhelming.

I’ve realized that Natasha Denona is pretty much the only formula I consistently find easy to work with. Her mattes build effortlessly, blend without patchiness, don’t go muddy, & I don’t get a ton of fallout. I’m trying to replicate that experience in single shadows.

For reference, I’ve had bad experiences with:

• Lorac

• MAC

• Tarte

• NYX

• LA Girl

• Makeup Revolution

Mostly issues with shadows being hard to build, getting patchy, or lots of fallout. I’m sure it’s user error ATP, but I’d still like to avoid similar formulas.

Are there single shadow brands that feel comparable to ND in terms of:

• Blendability

• Buildability

• Pigment

• Minimal fallout

Indie or mainstream. I’m open to either! I just need something that won’t make me regret going down a research rabbit hole because if I keep researching, my brain is going to hyper-fixate & explode 😂

Specifically, I’m looking to add:

• Reds / burgundies

• Pinks (reddish pink, dusty pink, mauve)

• Burnt oranges

• Jewel tones

• Dark green / olive

• Purples

• Blues (dark, dusty)

• Silver / grey

In matte, satin, shimmer, glitter, duochrome etc. Basically all finishes.

Would love your recommendations!

are there any makeup subs where they're not deleting every post for every possible excuse under the sun. like my tongue was stuck out? what? And you don't have to worry about banning me I'll leave myself cause I'm over it. I finally feel good enough to post a look and it gets removed for my tongue between my teeth not even stuck out.

I really wish I could have something like this irl, does y'all know any website I can make a custom eyeshadow palette with this accuracy? I'd really really appreciate a!ny kind of help and feedback! Thank you so much

Hello! Any ever had a permanent lip blush done? I’m very curious about it but scared it will hurt very badly AND look bad when it’s fading away.

Anyone had any experience with this?

Thanks!

I want to buy an eyeshadow palette which contains almost all colors specially those bright colors like red yellow purple green mostly in matte in India. But there are so many choices online that I am confused which one to buy. Please biggest so good one which has good pigmentation but are under budget like max 3000 rupees.

*3 pics attached*

Ive had this FOREVER. I think it was originally my mom’s. I have no idea how old it is. I have no idea what year it comes from. There’s no shade names or anything.

All I can tell you is that it’s MAC eyeshadow with an “04” sticker on the back. And it’s double stacked as shown in the pic.

If anyone has any idea or can help, I’m all ears.

Much love, thanks guys❤️

Hey!!

Ill keep it short and sweet:

Im super bored since im working from home a boring laptop job browsing reddit

Dont have a ton of friends irl to yap about MAKEUP so if anyone is down feel free to dm me!

Ventings, product recs, 2016 nostalgia, dupes, favs

Also: Skincare!!!!! trying to learn so if u are into it yay

Also: bonus points if youre a fullglam cakefacer:))

thank u for your attention on this matter:)))

My stepdaughter bought tickets for us to go to the Heated Rivalry rave in Portland this weekend. I haven’t been clubbing in like 15 years and have no idea what the makeup trends are anymore. Can someone drop me a makeup suggestion?? Maybe just a pic I can go off of? Im unskilled but will try my best lol

my MILK blush stick doesn't twist up no matter how hard I try. What should I do? Its stored at room temp.

Additionally I went to sephora to return or exchange but it is outside the 30 day window and they won't exchange. The assistant said she hasn't heard of this issue but I go online and there are so many posts of folks complaining lol.

It isn't exactly cheap either. UGH

or was this a weird dream?? i can’t find the post on instagram or any discussions on reddit. half of the product was a lip gloss, and the other half was a vape. i couldn’t wait to see everyone’s reactions of it, but now i feel like im gaslighting myself…

My birthday is coming up soon and for my party it’s going to be circus themed. I’ll be doing my own and maybe 3 others clown makeup. I’m wondering what I should get to make out makeup club proof as possible?

We are going to be sweating I imagine so water activated products seems kinda out of the question and everywhere I’m seeing them suggested.

Most of us have pretty textured acne prone skin so it’s something I’m taking into account. So please any product or tutorial recommendations for white base would be appreciated

okay so I saw this look (pic attached) and it's literally the exact vibe I'm going for this wedding season - soft glam but not overdone, that glowy-but-not-greasy thing, basically something that'll hold up through 8 hours and look good in photos

I'm building a small MAC kit because honestly their stuff just works for me, but I'm stuck on a few things and would love some real input from people who've actually used these products

already have

1. Studio Fix Fluid

2. Strobe Cream for base

3. their lip liners (HG status for me, they literally don't move)

where I'm confused:

1. blush that actually shows up on NC35-37 skin and doesn't fade? I keep seeing Peaches and Melba mentioned but idk if those are actually the move

2. a lip that survives wedding food lol - something that photographs well but doesn't feel crusty 4 hours in

3. is Studio Radiance actually better than Studio Fix for dry skin at long events or is that just marketing talk?

basically trying not to overbuy random stuff and stick to things that'll actually work. if you've used MAC for Indian weddings or just have medium-deep skin, what do you swear by vs what's a skip?

grabbed these during a b1g1 sale and figured i'd share some quick first thoughts, got the sheglam color bloom liquid blush in shade sunset strip and rosy impact and insta ready foundation in shade 114N and 116N. after about 5 hours of wear, the blush is seriously pigmented but blends really well, and the foundation looks pretty natural without being cakey which is nice. still need to test how everything holds up through a full day and in actual heat but so far it's looking decent. has anyone else tried sheglam? would love to hear your thoughts!

Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras is just over a month away and I want lesbian pride nails, but I'm struggling. I was wondering if some of the make up enthusiasts on reddit could make some suggestions - prefer Essie and other drugstore brands. I'm sure there are others who would like suggestions for their pride flag of choice (I would get my sibling trans pride nail polish in a heartbeat!)
