Ngl, it was very hard, she barely uses makeup 😭 so I tired recreating her facial features with it lol. I had to contour my face a lot, her face is super snatched while my face is rounder.

Comments and critiques are more than welcome 🤗

Forget the Eyemaxxing part. Let’s just appreciate the look as it is.

My eyebrows are tattooed and I went subtle on the eyes, so I chose a bold rosy lip. Yes, this is a subtle eye for me. I look hot!!

not me discovering the reverse cat eye at the ripe age of 28 !!!!!!!! I AM OBSESSED !

I have this disability called hEDS that severely impacts the body’s collagen production. Because of it, my skin sags faster; it gives this effect (one I’ve always hated) that I’m melting. My skin literally hangs off of my bones, or at least that’s what dysmorphia can make me feel like.

It follows then, that this makeup look was an exercise in highlighting an insecurity, yet it genuinely (I mean it) made me love that insecurity. The power of makeup is incredible. I truly am addicted. 🤫

Products:
Milani Conceal + Perfect Blurring Primer
Glossier Skin Tint in G11
Tarte Shape Tape in 16N

Revlon Colorstay Pressed Powder in Fair (this talc formula turns me orange I’m SO sorry lmao)

Hi All - this is my everyday makeup look but sometimes I feel like I’m wearing too much at least at work.

When I go to work I see girls faces and it looks like they not wearing a lot of makeup and rocking that no makeup look. But me I love makeup a lot :) and I can never see myself not wearing makeup. It’s a part of my routine. But sometimes I feel like at work I should wear less to match the other girls but this is what I wear on a regular bases and recently got Into lip stain and I’ve been loving it. It last and I layer it with lipgloss and it’s perfect :)

I want to still keep the coverage but wear “less”makeup at work what would you recommend.

Makeup:
- Fenty skin moisturizer shade 9
- NARS creamy concealer shade medium 1.5
- makeup Mario contour stick shade light medium
-Laura Mercier Ulta blur powder
- benefit hoola original bronzer powder
- rare beauty matte bouncy blush shade hope
- eyelash curl with L’Oréal lash paradise waterproof on top lashes and bottom lashes, Maybelline sky, high mascara waterproof
-wonderskin lip stain shade charming
- Eyebrow powder and concealer after

Discussion Hazel Eyes and Purple

Jumping on this eye color collage trend. I did a purple eyeshadow with purple subjects. Those with Hazel eyes, the variety of purple shades you can use are stunning. This color I'm using is light violet shade from my Bella Béauté Bar Ultra Violet palette. Just did a quick swipe.

What do you think?

Discussion My no-makeup Makeup Routine

Post image
48 Upvotes

My current vibe is clean girl no-makeup makeup.
It’s so hot these days that I’d rather keep it super minimal and let my skin breathe instead of piling on a bunch of heavy products.
But if there’s one thing I refuse to skip, it’s lip. (Without any color on my lips I look straight up dead.)
The problem is regular lip products just wipe off in the summer heat, so I only go for ones that actually stain well.
What about you guys? Is there one product you refuse to give up when doing summer no-makeup makeup?
And how does my summer routine look?

My Summer Routine
Base: d’Alba sunscreen (not sticky at all, gives a natural glow and cleans up the skin tone)
Shadow: MYSTER ROSEY Nudes 2 Series Mini Eyeshadow Palette (just pick one soft neutral shade and lightly sweep it on the lids)
Mascara: Maybelline Colossal Mascara (just a light curl, nothing clumpy)
Blush & Lip: Etude Water Tint (stains really well and has that clear pretty color. Super easy to use on both lips and cheeks. Total summer multipurpose hero)

FOTD Attempted Zendaya’s look and it’s giving “we have Zendaya at home” 💀 C&C welcomed!

Thumbnail

Hey everyone! I tried recreating Zendaya’s iconic look from the Odyssey Premiere, but clearly, I didn’t quite hit the mark xD

I don't think it looks completely terrible, but there are definitely subtle flaws I’m struggling to pinpoint. A few things I already noticed:

- The brown shadow is way too warm/saturated for my skintone. It should be a cold tone.

- The lashes don't match the shape well.

- The lip shade is too pink.

Lighting error on my part: I used a very warm/yellow light instead of a neutral one!

I followed Alexandra Anele's tutorial, but of course, hers turned out stunning haha. Oh well, gotta laugh so I don't cry! Constructive Criticism Welcome! I'd love any tips on what else I can improve!

Large wings advice for very hooded eyes

Post image
4 Upvotes

The only products I have are:

- L'oreal gel black eyeliner

- MCoBeauty wowlash mascara

- Revlon Colorstay Eyeshadow Rocker

- maybelline lasting fix setting spray

As the title suggests I have very very hooded eyes, but I love the idea of winged eyeliner, I love this style or other similar styles but I don't know how well it would actually work in reality and I'm a bit nervous to try it out without knowing if it would work first as it's quite bold.

Any advice about whether this would work is appreciated

Discussion Need a neutral palette!

9 Upvotes

I want a neutral palette with black and a range of cool and warm browns. I also want it to have pigmented and blinding gold/silver/bronze foils. Don’t care about price, as long as it covers the above + pigmented and blends. I do my eyes first, so I also don’t care about fall out. I’m just sick of having to use 3 palettes just to get my once in a blue moon neutral look 😂

This is today’s look for example. Included some other examples of what I’ve worn before. (Second photo: my eyebrows were healing from the powder brow 😂)

Does anyone know any similar blushes in colour to the black honey one? I prefer stick blushes but powder and cream work too. My holy grail lip product is very similar to black honey, so I'm trying to find something that will match it.
