Good make up advice you didn’t know you needed

2024/7/15 Edited to

... Read moreMakeup application can be a daunting task, especially when considering the unique characteristics of different skin types. If you have brown skin, understanding the undertones is essential for selecting the right foundation and concealers. Many women with dark or brown skin often struggle to find products that offer both coverage and a natural finish. It's important to recognize that not every product is created equal; investing in high-quality, pigment-rich products designed for your skin tone will enhance your look significantly. Additionally, adopting a skincare routine that preps your skin before makeup application is crucial. Incorporating hydrating serums and moisturizers can offer a smooth canvas for makeup to adhere to, while also preventing the makeup from settling into fine lines and pores. Consider also the importance of choosing the right tools. Brushes and sponges can make a massive difference in how your makeup is applied and blended. Moreover, utilizing setting sprays and powders can help your makeup last all day, maintaining a flawless look. Finally, don't underestimate the power of proper techniques. Blending eyeshadows correctly, contouring to enhance your features, and learning the art of applying blush can make your makeup application come together beautifully. Embrace experimentation with colors that complement brown skin, like rich golds and deep berry tones, to truly elevate your makeup game.

A title slide on a light background reads '5 Uncomfortable Lessons I Didn't Know I Needed' with the creator's handle '@thealphaqueensempire' and a forward arrow icon.
The first lesson on a light background states: 'People don't change when you give them more love- they change when they want to.' It emphasizes that growth is a personal choice.
The second lesson on a light background states: 'You weren't "too sensitive"- you were surrounded by people who couldn't handle your awareness.' It highlights that deep feeling is not a flaw.

Lately I’ve realized that healing isn’t always soft. Sometimes it looks like setting boundaries, saying no, or outgrowing who you thought you’d always be. Growth feels weird when you’re doing it right. It’s lonely, it’s uncomfortable, and sometimes you miss the old version of you—until you rem

A screenshot of a text message conversation where 'Clark' explains they are upset because the recipient didn't communicate their illness and hospital visit in Japan until the last minute, making them feel unconsidered.
Continuing the text message, 'Clark' expresses hurt and lack of trust, stating they were alone in a foreign country and the recipient acted like they were alone, not considering their feelings or the situation.
The recipient responds, stating they understand 'Clark's' feelings but are not sorry, explaining they were very sick, nearly suffocated, and only decided on the hospital visit when it became critical, telling 'Clark' when they were both awake.
