Please be honest but not mean.

Less is more for me as far as concealer and powders. I choose not to use any. I’m aware I have textured skin and I don’t mind that it shows.

What can I add or omit to have a better look?

Constructive criticism is welcome 💋Swipe for different lighting

... Read moreMakeup blindness refers to the difficulty some individuals face in recognizing the right products or techniques suitable for their unique skin type and features. To enhance your look while embracing textured skin, consider using light-reflecting products that give a radiant appearance without heavy coverage. Setting sprays and hydrating mists can also be beneficial to maintain a fresh and dewy look throughout the day. When it comes to applying makeup, techniques like stippling or bouncing products onto the skin can create a more airbrushed finish without the need for thick concealers. Focus on skincare, using exfoliants and moisturizers to improve the skin texture; this can reduce the need for heavy makeup. Always remember that makeup should enhance your natural beauty, not mask it. Engaging with fellow makeup enthusiasts can provide new insights and recommendations. Online forums like makeupblindness are great platforms to seek advice and share experiences. Get inspired by others' looks in various lighting to find what works best for you. Remember, constructive criticism is a pathway to improvement, so don't hesitate to ask for feedback from trusted friends or online communities!

Cute but Honest
Love these little sayings and pictures!!! Sometimes the truth stings a little—but hey, honesty is the best policy! 😜 Just like Stitch says, “The truth hurts, here, take a Band-Aid!” 💙 Be real, be kind, but never fake it. Figure I share some cute pictures not including the satins are on point!

Does Expensive Mean Better? 🤔
Not always. But expensive changes behavior. You use less, apply slower, and pay attention more 🧴 That attention may be part of the improvement. So the answer is messier than yes or no 💭 Comment like you mean it 👇 I want the honest side, not the polite one 💬 #luxuryskincare #skincar

Your words mean nothing..if
God is a very forgiving God. If we sin and we turn away and ask him for forgiveness we will be forgiven. Daniel 9:9 “The Lord our God is merciful and forgiving, even though we have rebelled against him.” But so many people get comfortable in sin and grow the mindset “sin now, repent later.”
