I would LOOOVE a video about how to find your own personal makeup style. I feel like I'm either constantly experimenting or trying to make someone else's style work on me. I haven't had a "signature look" since high school.
@findsmiles92823 ай бұрын
What if that’s your style? Being curious and experiment with makeup :-) Have you tried collaging makeup you love and look for the patterns. I bet your friends would also be able to tell you :-) And - I second the video idea, great suggestion! 🎉❤
@jjjjk12413 ай бұрын
One thing I found that helped with finding my personal style was observing what I naturally or normally do. For example, I found myself putting on sunscreen and then not wanting to put on foundation after that. Being protected with sunscreen is very important to me, and also the idea of putting on foundation became a chore. Therefore, I’m accepting that and using tinted SPF or skin tint that contains SPF, and I won’t be purchasing any heavier foundations in the future. Plus, finding out my seasonal color helped me figure out that people with my coloring don’t really need foundation anyway due to our natural luminosity. So, I am happy to invest in sunscreens that look especially nice, especially knowing that I don’t have to purchase foundation. Also, with the color analysis, I know what colors not to buy, and that made things much simpler. Anyway, all that to say, just take a step back and observe yourself. Hope that helps!

I would say like find the one product you’re always drawn to and try to center everything else around making that work for you. Eg, I always want to wear bold lips but I don’t like feeling too done-up. Ergo, I played around with the style of the rest of the makeup, and I found that I love very light makeup, glittery highlighter, and faux freckles with a bold lip! It’s SUCH a look and makes me feel amazing!
