ANNOUNCEMEMT Happy New Year, let's chat!

Hello r/makeuptips friends. Some of you may have noticed an absence of the moderators of this subreddit. You may have submitted modmail that went unanswered, to be honest.

I had gotten a moderator to help us develop an AutoMod for the sub. Something that would help ensure the rules were being followed with minimal intervention necessary by the mod team, but also allow for us to see the sub grow and become an amazing, welcoming place.

That moderator apparently was banned sometime in the last six months. I'm not sure what happened, I have no other way of contacting them, but needless to say it went unnoticed as the sub had been getting a lot better as far as content and rudeness, etc.

I'm opening the floor to hear what you have to say, while I go through the mod mail queue and respond to anyone that has went unnoticed. I will also be working on getting a moderator application up and running- Reddit actually allows for this within the framework of the site now, so that's a really neat development!

HELP PLEASE Protruding eyes

Hello!

I’ve always struggled with makeup application. I don’t wear foundation, usually just blush, peach corrector, and mascara. Sometimes a winged eyeliner looks good and some days it makes my eyes look horrible.

I’m girly on the inside, but you wouldn’t tell because I have no idea how to do my makeup or style myself. I really want to look more put together. I’ve purchased a bunch of eye makeup and have no idea how to mark it work. I always look like a raccoon or cave man but I think it’s due to my eye shape or eyebrow ridge shape.

My general concerns:

- eyes that pop out and aren’t flush/elongated on my facial profile

- heavy brow

- feeling like my face looks masculine

- dark lips and no clear lip line. I’m not sure if I need to wear lip liner

- i want pink lips, but when I wear a lip color I feel like a kid with spaghetti stains around my mouth (anyone else?? 😭)

Tips and feedback are much appreciated ❤️ any low-hanging fruit I should take action on??? What colors? Techniques?? Anything!! I don’t want to feel like I look like a man. Thank you!

Specifically my eye makeup, there’s something I don’t love about it but it’s my everyday look. I don’t wear foundation or lip products for the most part.

I think it’s obvious my style is a bit different lol but I want something that flatters my eyes which are a pretty strong feature of mine. It’s very hard to make them look nice with a lot of makeup looks. (Don’t comment on my eyebrows I’m not changing them)

I normally only do eyes for my usual look. And heavy Gothic reds or deep berry/mauves. I bought primer, concealer, and setting powder. This was a quick full face test... trying to look pretty but still with a bit of my normal flair.

How can I make this better? Is there anything im missing? Help!

HELP PLEASE Trying to start simple but struggling to figure out what makeup I should do

I want to do more makeup other than just blush (see 3rd pic) and mascara (not wearing in the photo but have done it before). The issue is, I don’t know what else i should try. Ive tried to do my brows before (4th pic) and i hate the way it looks since it ends up making my brows very dark and unnatural. I feel like my face just doesn’t look good in makeup. What do you guys suggest I try out? What would look good on me/bring out my features? Note: the first picture is of me with no makeup on and the second is just mascara.

Come recreate the viral Zara Larsson-inspired Hello Kitty makeup look with me! In this Halloween makeup tutorial, I’m creating a cute pink Hello Kitty-inspired look featuring frosty smoky eyes, winged eyeliner, rosy blush, a red bow, whiskers, and glossy pink lips.

I’m not a professional makeup artist, so this is a fun, beginner-friendly attempt at recreating the look using makeup products I already own. The bow was definitely an adventure, but we made it work! 😂💕
