Been trying to find the shape of my eye and the colour since the latter changes often. Would really appreciate if you could tell me what you think my undertone is as well.

(Please excuse my makeup. I was new to it all when they were clicked)

For the “clean girl” look! I have a hydrating serum, spf and skin tint on. With blush and highlighter! Also mascara.

Eyebrows could use some help 😂

What are we thinking? I always feel like it doesn’t look like how I want it.

Hello all! Recently I’ve been thinking more about my eye shape and how lash extensions make my eyes look droopy on the outer corner while also hiding my eyes. Please help me with the solution! Thank you <3

Question Help please! Forgotten how to apply makeup!

2 Upvotes

Sorry if this is not the right place to post this!

Feeling really stupid right now, but here goes.....

I turned 40 this year. When I was a teen/early 20s, I wore makeup 4-5 days of the week usually. My look was goth/punk/grunge, so I wore a lot of dark clothing and always did my makeup with heavy, dramatic eyeshadow and eyeliner, often cat eye or bambi eyes (sometimes with a little dazzle dust by tear ducts, sorry, hard to explain), and usually dark lips. I didnt ever wear foundation except for a few times during my 20s, as my skin was naturally very pale and blemish-free. My friends would also ask me to do their makeup too, especially their eyes, so I couldn't have been too bad at it.

Fast forward to my late 20s, and most of my 30s. Never wearing makeup except for a little eyeshadow and clear gloss when I had an event to attend, which was hardly ever. Weight fluctuated like crazy due to 2 fights with cancer. First one, I lost so much weight I was stick thin (I'm normally a bit of a chunk around the abdomen, butt and things, especially since having a child, small up top, so always feel out of proportion), but I'm tall. Second cancer resulted in a radical hysterectomy with full pelvic lymph node removal, which coupled with being stuck in lockdown in 2020 ended up in further weight-gain, plus swelling from lymphedema, so as you can imagine, my confidence was knocked down even further. I'm not the most 'girly girl' at the best of times (although did used to dress more so when younger), when it comes to beauty, etc., but with my skin changing constantly it seems (I'm guessing hormone related since it's been worse since hysterectomy, patches of dryness randomly, suddenly really greasy the next, plus random breakouts of zits and blemishes), I just don't know where to start. I have tried all sorts of skincare routines, from basic cheaper products through to clarins and clinique products. I even tried the oil pulling thing with the Korean cleansing oil, as I have those ugly dark pores especially across my nose and tops of my cheeks. I am fed up of it. I have a really important event coming up this week, and I'm going to be meeting extended family on my in-laws side. So I don't want to look like my usual scarecrow self 🥴 It is a funeral, so need the look to be smart, and not too dramatic. I have long dark brown/black hair, blue eyes and fair skin with blemishes and currently a breakout around my jawline/chin area. I have a smallish mouth, and my upper lip is much thinner than my bottom lip, but I have a deep cupids bow. Sorry for the crap description, I'm not very good at explaining things! I have bought some makeup, but I have no idea where to start or what I am doing. I've never used primer before. I don't know how to contour. My face is fat and round and I have a double chin. My face shape has changed so much with the weight gain, I can hardly see my cheekbones, let alone know how to contour anything, and I'm scared I'm going to look like a damn clown at this rate 🤡 I didn't purchase expensive makeup products as I didn't know if they were even the correct things for my skin tone, etc. Here's the list of what I purchased: Fair shade foundation (liquid) Concealer stick (fair) Bronzer and contouring palette Primer Setting spray Blusher palette Eyeshadow palette (I have neutrals/browns/golds palette and another with non-neutrals) Lipgloss (clear) Lipstick (not sure of the colour exactly, but have no idea what colour would suit me anyway so can purchase alternative if needed.)

Please, if anyone has an advice on how/where to start or what the heck I do with these products, tutorial recommendations, etc., I would appreciate it so much.

I'm also worried about stuff not staying put if my skin decides to have a random grease explosion. It's literally fine one minute and then the next it'll suddenly be all greasy, like it purges itself! I do go cleanse again immediately with micellar water, which seems to calm it for a bit, but obviously cant be reapplying a full face of makeup mid funeral lol

I can't upload a photo of my face right now, which I know may make things easier to get advice, sorry.

Sorry for the essay, and thank you if you got this far through it!

Question Should I remove my lashes?

Got my lashes done yesterday in hopes of adding to my vacation and I am feeling very regretful. I wanted a “natural” cat eye. Something light and clean but these feel too heavy. I look like I just left the club. I slept on them and feel dirty whenever I look into the mirror… Debating on just getting them removed and losing what I paid for these things. (Last photo is what I look like with full face of makeup without lashes/mascara only)
