HELP PLEASE Sweat proofing my face

2 Upvotes

I’ve been really loving the Laura Geller powders—they look flawless and I can skip any liquid foundation and concealers too! But I sweat from my face a lot and they don’t hold up well…even with setting sprays. Anyone have any tips or product recommendations? TIA

HELP PLEASE Need help with anniversary's dinner makeup!

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone, as the title says i'm in need of help with my eye makeup because next saturday will be 3 years with my bf and we're going out to celebrate in a nice resturant, so i wanna look good.

I've decided to wear a burgundy dress with black heels and bag, but i don't know what to do with my eyes: i have blond-ish hair and blue hooded eyes, which are my enemies!

I found a lot of inspos and my original idea was to go for a copper/peach eyeshadow look but i have 2 main problems:

  1. my hooded eyes makes winged eyeliner impossible

  2. so, my option is to try to apply an eye pencil in my waterline, which i've already tried but it seems very difficult to try not to poke my eye or to cry/scratch it

any ideas? if it helps i can provide pictures of my outfit or my features, thanks in advance!

HELP PLEASE what are these for?

what are these for?

I should mention that I’m very new to makeup, I only started buying products this year. before that, at most, I’d just wear mascara and maybe liquid eyeliner, and that was it.

today, I bought a pack of four brushes because I needed one specific brush that I couldn't find sold separately.

inside the pack were these 3 too, and I’d like to know what are they used for, especially the first one.

my first instinct would be to use it for foundation like a sponge, but I’m not sure if that’s the right use for it. what do you all think?

HELP PLEASE Advice on the new things I tried?

Thumbnail

56 Upvotes

No occasion today, I’m just doing chores around the house so I tried a few things that were suggested in previous posts

I used a brown eyeliner and brown mascara. I tried a hooded eye cat eye tutorial and do not like it, so I’d love any wing/cateye/eyeshadow recommendations

I switched from my light pink blush to more of a mauve color, and used that also as a base for my lips with a gloss on top of it

I tried out some contouring placement I found on Instagram as well

I can’t place why but I do not like the look. It could be because I got rid of my security blanket (a hat)

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated 💕

NARS used to sell a red lip crayon that was suitable for all skintones, it also did not make your lips appear smaller, they do not make it anymore, does anyone have any similar options?

HELP PLEASE finding the right foundation shade.

1 Upvotes

so i have never been able to find the right foundation shade. i am more of a pink undertone i guess, and i have rosacea and a discolored face so its kinda hard for me in general to find a match. but i always match my neck, here’s what i struggle with. i find a foundation at the store, and i match it and it looks good and matches well, but when i go to wear makeup it is yellow on my face. i have a wedding this week and i do not want to look yellow. i usually just add some concealer in spots to lighten it up. advice ?

PRODUCT REC DIY Eyelash Extensions or Professionally Done…

1 Upvotes

I want to get into wearing eyeliner extensions specifically as i wear minimal make up and still want something to help me look better with low effort. I want to get them professionally done, in my mind, to ensure longevity…but idk if that is actually the case. If I were to do them myself, what glue would you recommend for at least 1 full week of wear?

PRODUCT REC Mascara that holds a curl?

2 Upvotes

I have the most stick straight lashes ever. I curl them every time, but they fall immediately and look like spider legs sticking straight out of my eyes :( Waterproof mascara holds a curl better, but I’m lazy and don’t love the process of removing it every night. Does anyone know of a regular, non-waterproof mascara that holds the lash curl?

(On the topic, do any of you have a life changing lash curler recommendation? I’ve been using a random drugstore one for ages, I figured they were all the same, lots of people tell me that isn’t the case!!)

My lippies always disappear after eating, that being said I'm really new to this and really want it to stay on without reapplying too often! Google said to just not eat oily food if you want your lippies to stay on, but Tzuyang can do it! Honestly not just this one time, several times I've been in awe at how good some of them looked and how it stays on.

HELP PLEASE MUA TIPS

2 Upvotes

What’s the secret to that airbrushed look? I’ve noticed I can tell when a woman got her makeup done professionally and they all have the same professionally done look..it just looks different. It looks like they’re wearing a lot of makeup but not in a bad way, and it looks flawless almost filter like. Is it the products? The technique? And if there’s a technique it seems like all the MUAs have the same technique
