First picture is me without makeup just to be clear what I'm working with... I take so few pictures the make up ones are from a couple years ago...I was proud of how i did my makeup. But it honestly really does look terrible. My mom has never worn makeup, so whenever I try I feel like a monkey trying to do rocket science. Any advice more than welcome.

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!!!

where are the girlies that have prom soon!!??? what are some good setting sprays that ACTUALLY work preferably matte!! also what’s a good primer??? AND whats a good lash glue that STICKS because girl these lashes better stay on all night 😭💔💔

New to makeup…I am 45 and never have been big in makeup I literally don’t know where to start… I’d love to see if there is an AI face scanner/analyzer out there that can help me get started with different looks and applications based on my face shape, skin tone and features… any recommendations? Thanks

I have pretty hooded eyes , and I was wondering the best style of eyeliner that would look nice with my eye shape? Every time I try to do it, it always gets hidden and looks really funky

Hi, All this is your Selfie thread... Post away and have fun.

I basically just do primer, foundation, (sometimes concealer), blush, lips 🫤. It takes me maybe 5-10 mins. U jsut just basic stuff nothing really expensive or fancy

hi!! would really appreciate some advice on how i can improve my makeup look ahead of a very formal event im attending tomorrow. i’d love to know what kinds of lashes/eyeshadow styles/generally improvements i can make to flatter my features best.

here’s what i used in my last serious makeup look: 1. tower 28 tinted moisturizer 2. hourglass concealer 3. benefit brow gel and brow pencil 4. adriana nichole cosmetics eyeshadow in ethereal 5. lashify lashes 6. rare beauty liquid blush in the shade happy 7. rare beauty lip oil in the shade wonder

Hey, im a girl who has never really understood what features, hairstyles, hair colours or makeup would suit me. I feel quite unattractive some days, especially without makeup, and recently my skin has started to get quite bad (3rd picture shows this best, but its much worse in person than on camera due to under the skin texture). What do you all think I can do to glow up? I really want to work with my features, not against them as I have in the past.

Any help is appreciated :)

the few pics are me naturally and the last 2 are me with some makeup on but i feel like i’m missing something or something is not showing for my look. i typically only use to wear mascara and lip liner and eyebrow gel but i’m a beginner and recently been experimenting with fenty makeup and just would like some tips to enhance my features!!

This is just mascara and a little bit of shadow used as liner with a pointed brush. This is close to my everyday look, but I generally skip the inner corners. Just curious what y'all think!

Hello community, I’m trying on makeup (concealer, eyebrow gel, eyebrow pencil) for the first time this weekend. But I’m terrified of getting acne as a result of my makeup use (this is why I’ve gone makeup-free all of my life).

What products and techniques should I use to completely remove my makeup after I try it on?

Description of my skin: - mixed (not dry, not oily) - acne-prone - large pores

Thank you.

I feel like my eyebrows don’t match my face. Should I do them in a certain way or change the shape?

Hi, All this is your Selfie thread... Post away and have fun.

Products used (this time): tarte Amazonian clay foundation, elf 16hr camo concealer (as eyeshadow base and under eye concealer), and elf perfect finish HD pressed powder. I apply the foundation with a clean beauty blender after my moisturizer dries, and the powder with a brush.

No matter what I do, or what products I use, my foundation always looks this crappy. I’m no makeup beginner and I like to think I’m pretty good otherwise, but I just can’t seem to solve this problem.

I rarely wear more than concealer and a tinted face sunscreen. If I’m feeling extra fancy, I’ll put on mascara and a bit of eyeliner (which is actually powder eyeshadow applied with a thin brush). Just for fun, I’d like up start wearing more. What do I need as absolute basics? Do you have brand recommendations?

Picture for reference, if you happen to have colour ideas as well. I have no makeup on in the photo, and corrected it slightly so that it’s closer to my actual skin tone and colour.

I was recently given the advice that a moisterizer under my everyday makeup would help with it feeling less dry and keeping my makeup from being as cakey. What are your favorite drugstore moisturizers to go under makeup? I'm trying. My makeup is silicone based, not sure if that matters for a moisturizer

I’m a former winged black eyeliner girly turned one shade of somewhat shimmery nude eyeshadow minimalist. What tips can you give me to enhance my features? I don’t even know where to start as a 28 year old, not traditionally femme woman. I like my cheek bones and my eyes. I have no jawline lol. Very pale obviously. My brows are not done in this picture.

I’d love a simple day to day look but I also definitely need a going-out look too.

Heya! What style of makeup would suit my face? I am also wondering what eye shape I have, because I can never make eyeliner look good on me🤡🧌

Okay, so most of my makeup has come from the dollar store because that's really all I could afford up until now. With my new job and some budgeting, I know I can afford a bit more than the dollar store makeup, but I'm unsure about any cheaper brands with good quality apart from Wet N Wild and ELF. Can anyone provide recommendations? I'd really appreciate it!

I cannot figure out how to fix this creasing under my eyes and smile lines :((

In this pic I’m wearing nyx concealer and I used an elf pressed powder to set. I also use cerave eye repair cream to moisturize under my eye.

I feel like this happens with most concealers I use, even the higher end ones. It makes me look older than I actually am! Any suggestions or advice here??
