Idk how to do my makeup

I wish I did my makeup as a teen in the og YouTuber beauty days!!! All I know how to do are my brows 😔

I’ve definitely tried to do a full beat a handful of times but I always end up looking cartoonish or too exaggerated. I only go for light looks that enhance my features

Sometimes all the advice gets confusing!! Do you have any tips on learning to do it or what makes your routine more effective??

Soon I will be forcing myself to learn and documenting my journey on my YouTube channel 🫣

... Read moreLearning how to do your makeup can be a challenging yet rewarding experience. Many beginners feel overwhelmed by the vast array of tutorials, products, and techniques available. Start by focusing on the basics: choose products that suit your skin type and complexion. For instance, a tinted moisturizer can provide light coverage, enhancing your natural beauty without heavy application. Practice makes perfect, so don't be discouraged by initial results. Consider breaking down your learning process into manageable steps—start with the eyes, perhaps experimenting with simple techniques like applying mascara or a neutral eyeshadow. As you gain confidence, you can gradually introduce more complex elements such as contouring and bold lip colors. Utilizing online resources such as tutorials on platforms like YouTube can offer visual guidance and new ideas, making the learning process more enjoyable. Additionally, engage with makeup communities online, where you can share your experiences and get feedback. Don't forget to document your progress, as it can be motivating to see how far you’ve come. Remember, the key is to enjoy the journey and embrace your unique beauty! Whether you lean towards light looks or more extravagant styles, the important thing is that your makeup reflects who you are.

HOW TO PROPERLY USE YOUR BEAUTYBLENDER 💕✨
idk if it’s just because I’m a makeup artist, but after sharing this recently, I found out that SO many of my friends apply their foundation with a dry Beautyblender. It’s great to use dry if you’re baking, but to get that flawless look on your skin, you NEED to wet it and bounce it all over you

Have good posture! Make sure you are standing up straight, don’t cross your legs, and make sure your head is not tilted! Depending on your hair style you should style it to fit your features best. For my hair it was to straighten it, if you have curly hair style it to your preference. Wear l
