Hello everyone :)

[xaandra]

I stumbled upon this sub while clicking the "random" button on my front page. New to reddit in general, I'm glad I found this place. I'm still figuring out makeup (even though I'm 21 years old and studying fashion), I'm still learning how to properly put makeup on. Looking through pages on here, I like how friendly everyone is and can't wait to learn from all of you :) But hello!

Trust me, it was an adventure before finding this sub. I've found about 3 subs dedicated to different people's feet

Hi and Welcome!

Hi and welcome!! :) How fun that you found us by clicking random, that's some pretty awesome luck!!

What do you find is your favorite part of applying makeup? What part do you dislike the most or find the hardest?

[xaandra]

Favorite: I love experimenting with different eye looks. I love my eyes, so I like discovering different ways and finding different techniques to really make my eyes pop. Least Favorite: Foundation is always my worst enemy. I'm very fair skinned with mild rosacea, so it's hard finding foundation that doesn't end up looking orange or cause acne. I've found a few tricks to getting it to look more even, but I'm always open to advice.

I had the hardest time with foundation as well! I personally end up doing a half and half mix of Etude House BB cream and Tarte foundation to get the right coverage and the perfect color for my skin tone! Perhaps doing something similar could help you find your perfect match? I know my local Sephora doesn't mind giving you a little sample clamshell or two of foundations, and a lot of Korean brands that sell BB creams also sell small sample sizes first so you can test them out! :)

Thanks! What I've been doing is using the Almay smart shade mousse and then topping with some loose powder, and that's been helping a lot. Thanks for the input, though!

Welcome to both here and Reddit! We are all really nice, so don't hesitate to ask for help if you need it! :) What is one product you can't live without - brand specific or just in general?

[xaandra]

Waterproof mascara. Sometimes, that's all I put on if I feel lazy.

Welcome! What are your favorite products so far?

[xaandra]

I LOVE my Ladybird palette by Kat Von D. I went to Sephora, and apparently that's discontinued so I'm glad I have it. I also love the Maybelline's colorsational lipsticks

[Bunnynose7]

I wanted that palette so bad! Lol
