Just a little tip for anyone who's new to makeup or wants to wear makeup and can't do so obviously, (and I just learned this lil tidbit and it has been AMAZING) if you take an eyeshadow that's a couple shades darker than your skin (and make sure to use just a lil) and go under your eyes-especially on the outer corner -it will make your eyes stand out a lil bit more and its kind of hard to tell if you're actually wearing makeup. I literally just saw a video where someone actually did showed them doing it and it has changed my life.

Ima get up on my makeup artist high horse and just issue a PSA that I really thought wasn’t needed but apparently it is: DO NOT OPEN A MAKEUP PRODUCT TO TRY IT ON AND THEN PUT IT BACK IN THE PACKAGING AND LEAVE IT FOR SOMEONE ELSE TO STUMBLE UPON.

It’s unsanitary. You could get someone sick or if you have a little funky thing happenin with your mouth (you know what I mean) you could spread it to someone else. Pink Eye. Breakouts. Other infections can occur and breed bacteria in the makeup product.

I might seem dramatic but seriously it’s overall fucking disgusting. I just watched a woman in TJMaxx open a lipgloss,put it on and put it back in the package then run off when she saw me staring her down. I gave the product to the staff afterwards.

It’s nasty. I understand in department stores it can be a hit or miss buying something without being able to test it but c’mon. This is why places like MAC and Sephora are nice bc you can get samples. And guess what? If you think something is too expensive and you want it just for like a job interview or something a sample works just fine. No need to go and buy something. Samples are free!

Number 1 concern of a makeup artist isn’t to make you look good tbh. It’s to make sure everything is sanitary. Makeup can breed bacteria if it gets contaminated. There’s tons of videos talking about it.

Pls,just fucking stop.

If you’re lactose intolerant and wearing makeup. Take. A. Fucking. Lactaid. Just trust me on this one okay.

"Strobing is the new contouring!!"

um, not if you have anything but totally clear, dry-normal skin. Do you have any texture in your skin? Large pores? Acne, rosacea? Well, all of that high light is gonna do, is accentuate the heck outta it, to the point where it just looks cakey and unflattering. Do you have oily-combination skin? Well then, I would, again, advise against such an intense, highlighted look, because within hours, your face will start to resemble a McDonald's fryer, what with all that oil. Not to mention, it's not a comfortable thing, having oily skin, but if you want to keep that strobe happening, you can't really afford to powder your face - even if you try to reapply the highlight, you'll just look kind of cake faced. Now, nothing wrong with looking cake faced, or having intense texture to the skin, but this is the a PSA for people who are wondering if strobing really IS the new contouring. Because you know what? It's not. I don't care if it's a trend, if you prefer contouring to strobing, contour the heck out of your pretty little face. Have at it.

psa: if you're a really emotional person don't lay down while you're wearing makeup because tears will leak out and ruin the makeup it's a lil bit irritating
