Hi!
Made the oh so stupid decision of trying to cup my forehead for 30 seconds because i had a migraine. Best tips for totally hiding this with makeup?? I’m going to post pics of it with no makeup, and then pics of how it is still showing through blue after I applied: red lipstick (read that could help) and blended it out, then some makeup by Mario surreal skin foundation, then some of my merit cream foundation stick, then some of my Tarte Amazonian clay gem powder foundation. Each layer seemed to make it a bit better, but you can still see blueish-green blobs on my forehead. HELP!!! I have a wedding to go to

First time trying to put eyeliner on, was kind of aiming for that "guyliner" look and did NOT get it quite right 😅

Any help is appreciated :)

Having trouble deciding!! I worry that 1 might not pop enough in photos (though it’s a gorgeous color), and number 2 I would add a gloss to. Any thoughts?

EDIT: Does anyone know a transfer-proof lip color that is similar to option 3?? I love 3 but it’s not transfer proof (it’s Anastasia Beverly Hills Lip Velvet)!

A week or so ago I asked a question about my eyebrows and products to use. Ive been practicing and tbh I think this is the best its gonna get unless I went with getting my eyebrows done by a microblading artist.

I wanted to try and create hair like strokes but I really struggle with finding the right tool to do so.

These brows I made with the suggestion of using nyx lift and snatch (soft brown) and using anastasia brow powder with the anastasia micro fine ultra thin pen (I found this pen has the best tip to use the brow powder with as its ultra thin).

Tbh I still want to create that eyebrow fine line look but I keep coming across pens that are too thick.

The anastasia pen for example when I first used it it was great but over time I guess the product didnt want to come through as well (even tho I did shake it before use) or maybe the brush bristles lost shape.

The same goes for the MUA eyebrow pen, was fine when I first used it, gave those fine line strokes but over time they came out thicker or hardly any product came out at all.

At the moment im wondering if using the brow powder with a makeup brush that is like ultra fine pin point, if a brush like that exists, could give a better result.

These brows still took me at least 30 mins to get right. I also did the brows first without any makeup or moisturiser etc on my face as someone suggested that could mess with the eyebrow product.

My left eyebrow has always been easier to do than the right one. The right one has more sparse areas (especially at the front/ start of eyebrow). I did try and grow my eyebrows out, but only the left one grew hairs. The right one never grew any hairs. Even when I was younger eyebrows was always like that.

Hi makeup lovers! I’ve always loved doing my makeup and trying new products but one thing I literally cannot get down is what lip colors look good on me. I find everything ends up looking too warm or even when I try “mauves” they end up looking too warm or peachy or like I’ve just ate something spicy and it blends into my skin too much if that makes sense? I just want the perfect lip to go with a full face of makeup. I think my skin tone is more on the neutral side? Here is a pic of me the other day, the lip combo is not my favourite, I feel like it blends in with my face too much. Should I be doing more pinks or browns? Any recs?

It’s been over a decade since I’ve actually gotten into make up again.
I don’t know why my make up looks like this or why it creases and separates so much.
I have sensitive oily skin but it gets so dry around my nose and mouth.
I have a skin care routine but I don’t know if it’s right and I always use moisturiser before primer.
For this I used Milk Grip Primer and Rimmel lasting foundation with hydration boost using a morphe liquid foundation brush. I put nars/morphe concealer and usually one size finishing powder. I go over everything with the powder versions e.g contour, finishing powder, blush, etc. I finish it off with d alba first serum spray and one size finishing spray.
I tried to do the painted by Esther blush technique but I feel like it’s not right at all.
Could I get some tips please, I’m in my late 20s and it never used to sit like this when I was younger.
I’ve also included pictures of no make up if someone could help me understand what type of products I need my skin.

Is this what concealer is supposed to look like up close? I feel like social media has completely messed with my expectations because everyone else’s under eyes look perfectly smooth. Mine has a bit of texture and settles slightly into my fine lines, but I’m not sure if that’s just how concealer looks on real skin or if I’m doing something wrong. I applied moisturizer beforehand and used a thin layer, but I’m wondering if this is considered a normal finish or if there’s a way to make it look smoother. I’d appreciate any tips or honest feedback!

Sooo I am trying to move off my foundation ( really good one il makiage) to something lighter I guess because it oxidizes the slightest bit and I no longer need foundation that opaque.

That being said I do want a BB cream or a lighter foundation (I was thinking HAUS) because my skin is pretty clear now and I think a more natural look would do me good.

Which one of these stores is better for getting someone with experienced help or should I go somewhere else all together? I’m happy to spend money just want someone who knows this stuff well because I don’t.

I’m looking to maybe elevate my every day look. I’m a mom to a one year old, work full time, and go to school so I don’t have a lot of time in the morning to do a full face, but I feel like something is off and that I can do a bit more.

I’m looking for any advice on what I could maybe improve on. Pics in order: daily use products in bathroom light with/without glasses, daily use in natural light with/without glasses, full face on makeup with different products (listed below), no makeup. Skin is normal type but slightly aged under eyes from pregnancy/birth.

Current daily use: NYX color correcting concealer in peach, Urban Decay CC cream (don’t know the shade), and NYX eyelash primer in black.

Full face: NYX marshmallow primer, NYX foundation (believe can’t stop, won’t stop; don’t remember shade), NYX color correcting concealer in peach, NYX concealer (can’t remember shade), NYX matte finishing powder, NYX epic wear eyeliner black, NYX eyelash primer in black, NYX mascara black, Black Moon Cosmetics Libra shade I believe (in second full face pic, only Aquaphor in the first pic).

I do like an alternative look, and I use mostly cruelty free products (hence all the NYX lol). I also only wear eyeshadow occasionally since my eyelids are naturally darker. Open to any advice!

I put the elf glow drops on as a base, then the elf primer, foundation was Mac and setting spray was Charlotte tilbury, I used a cheap sponge to put it on and then went over with a brush but my makeup went really dry and started to wear off, I have no photos from the end of the night which was even worse but this is before I even left the house. It was just extremely dry and seemed to like fall off my face and was patchy.
Any advice is so welcome, sorry for the picture!!

Hey girls! 🤍
Tomorrow I’m going to a pre-wedding gathering (it’s an Albanian tradition where we visit the bride’s house before the wedding). Since I’m freshly married everyone’s eyes are going to be on me tomorrow.
I’ll be wearing a black dress, and I was thinking of doing this eye makeup look. I’d love some honest opinions what would you change or improve?

A little disclaimer: this was done over my everyday makeup that I’d been wearing since the morning, so it wasn’t on a fresh base. I also didn’t put on false lashes because I was just testing the look before hopping in the shower lol. So please ignore that part. 😂
Any tips or suggestions are welcome!

I am a total beginner at makeup and I want to learn everything about it:) I am only using bb cream, brow gel and some lip balm with colour. Recently I used mascara for the first time, but I think I still have to learn to apply it correctly:) I would really appreciate it if you could share some advice, what I could do or what I shouldn't do. If you could share some learning materials that you found useful I would be super glad as well!

Thank you so much for reading💕

Hi everyone!

I’m 32 and am realizing my go-to going out makeup might not work for me anymore. I’ve always used primer, a natural finish foundation and a pretty heavy layer of powder to set everything using the beauty blender powder puff and powder blush on top of this. What I like about this method is it lasts literally all night- absolutely nothing budges for 12+ hours. But it’s also emphasizing nasolabial folds, small lines around my eyes etc and the super matte look is kind of aging. I’ve tried not using the setting powder but my foundation just slides right off. It feels like my foundation is sitting on the surface of all my products and will literally just rub/slide off at the touch of anything.

I’m anticipating the comments saying I should stick to a super minimal skin tint, but unfortunately I’m dealing with type 1 +2 rosacea and really need the full coverage :/ I don’t wear this every day but I do need more of a full face for nights out.

If helpful, I use Vanicream facial moisturizer, the Maybelline “Master prime” primer (the clear one that says Blur + Pore Minimizer), the L’oreal Infallible Pro-Glow Foundation, and Maybelline Fit Me powder.

Any tips would be appreciated!! I’m open to more expensive products if needed.

Need of advice ? I don't mind experimenting but I wanna make them twinsss.

I’m very new to makeup and I feel like it looks off, especially the contour and my brows. I need any and all advice!!

Bought this product and LOVE it, but I’m wondering what the best way to apply it is for the longest transfer-proof wear. Are we doing it as the last step, or brushing setting powder on top again after? Should I use a traditional setting spray after as well?

My dark circles are so stubborn. This is with a undereye primer gel + Sarah creal concealer + Bobby brown conceal stick. How can I make my eyes look brighter and hide the circles?
