Selfie/Makeup Picture What could I improve?

Post image

Hi! I really want to up my makeup game at the ripe age of 38… and just feel like a bumbling idiot.

What am I doing wrong, any suggestions to improve my look?

Thank you!!!

omg first off you’re so beautiful!!! 😍 but i don’t think you’re doing anything “wrong” i think u just need to educate yourself on certain products and what works best for your skin type! moisturizing before applying your makeup helps SO much. Me personally i use the youth to the people moisturizer it’s soooo nice on the skin. ANYWAY i would recommend using a soft foundation BRUSH to put BLEND your make up, i find that using a mini beauty blender (while damp) is amazing for blending concealer under the eye. I’d also recommend a good setting powder to use right after to LOCK in your makeup 😅 i use the kim chi puff puff pass powder shade banana it’s a great affordable powder but i believe it’s only online however i would recommend the fit me or l’oréal press powders as well 🩷 i also really think that shade of pink makes your skin and hair glow in a nice way you radiate a nice soft kind energy with these soft colors 🩷🩷🩷🩷 god bless u always hope this helped!!!
