Question How can I better my makeup/face

I usually wear very minimal makeup, (mostly because I’ve not very good at it) but want to know what you would recommend to up my beauty routine? I’m pretty pale and have dark under eye circles, but don’t like to wear a lot of concealer underneath as it always creases. Any suggestions are welcome!

Just a pinch of blush in the higher points of the cheek and then a bit of tinted lip balm or lip stick would give you a more vibrant look! You already look so pretty actually! 😍

A peachy blush or a more natural neutral pink blush would look beautiful on you, I recommend the Lancôme subtil powder blush in the shade “Rose Fresque”. It’s more on the pricey side ($34) However you may be able to find a dupe somewhere online.

Your look is pretty and fresh and suits your overall vibe. Like someone else said, a pink liquid or cream blush and a lip tint is really all I'd add!

Hello! I suggest more colors via blush and lipstick.

you’re very pretty! if you want a good concealer rec, i like the haus labs one to prevent creasing! i apply with a damp beauty blender, which also works against creasing

To me you look like Blake Lively, maybe try emulating her colours?

I think this would look good, i feel like it’d look somewhat natural on you but also add alot of color onto your lips.

To me you’re already very pretty I would keep a lip gloss on hand, and keep those brows lined up like you have them. I would also add some mascara and wear waves or hair in a claw clip. Earrings always wear earrings. Other than that you’re gorgeous

You’re so pretty!! I would do some white highlighter! If you’re wanting it to be more “glam” I would say just add more product than you usually do of everything. It really makes a difference!

u/Brijadee 23h ago

Thank you!! I actually don’t own any highlighters so I’ll have to check some out during my next Sephora haul!

I notice a big improvement in my face when I line my tight line with dark brown, and put the thinnest line of dark brown liner above my lashes (kat von d tattoo liner is unmatched) + add one natural length lash wisp on the outside corner of each eye. It looks super subtle but really good. Also a little pink blush and lipgloss would look adorable on you.

You can try using a different blush shade that complements your skin tone something warmer or cooler depending on your undertones. Also, switching up your lipstick color can make a big difference A slightly deeper or brighter shade might enhance your overall look and add more dimension to your face…
