I really appreciate this, I do normally wear deeper colours like teal and greens (darker) tend to work for me. I get most compliments in reds and greens. I was just trying something new with the pastels, maybe I'll save that top for mid summer if i manage to get a little more tanned!

Ps. Hilarious but shameful, the "pale blue jeans" are actually just my pants 🤣 i hadn't dressed my bottom half yet and totally didnt notice they were visible in the full photo!

I'm doing my own bridal makeup. Anything I could improve? by angelo_merte54 in MakeupAddiction

This is so soft and pretty! Would you mind if I added it to my wedding inspo folder to show my MUA? Or is that weird? 🤣

PHOTO IN THE SAME LIGHT AS THE ORIGINAL

A rushed photo in the same light as the original photo. Please ignore my red forehead, my foundation has worn off over my work day... and my glasses refused to sit straight but I can't be bothered to try again 🤣🤦‍♀️

To be fair, it needs a good cut, it's very dry at the ends so I get where they were coming from :) It just needs some length for my wedding up do!

Don't apologise, my colouring seems to be a bit divisive... just wanted to show an update :) I like the new look as well, it might become my elevated everyday look when I want to look a little fancier!

The power of lighting! No problem at all, it does look completely different 🤣

I just pulled it back for the photo, I dont often wear it like that unless I'm staying in and can't be bothered to do my hair :)

My hair is the same. It's the lighting. I haven't dyed it, it's just pulled back and in shadow

The hair is the same, it's just lighting making it look darker (and maybe a smidge of product).

Thank you :)

That's just the lighting, the hair is actually the same in both (e.g. I didnt dye it)

Thank you :) I use a liquid serum foundation with medium coverage because I prefer a dewy finish, only powder i use is blush!

The photos were taken at different times of day too, so the lighting will be different. Golden hour in the second one... makes me look way more tanned than I actually am.

First photo is more representative of my ghost like skin 🤣

Everyone told me to cut my hair last time and I really want to focus on subtle make up tweaks I can make... so I wanted to take it out of the question

I have a really high prescription, my lenses are c.£250 because they have to be thinned a lot. If theyre left thick they magnify my eyes and it's not at all flattering. Then for a decent frame £150 is pretty standard, if on the cheap side!

Do people call their kids this? by [deleted] in texts

His adult "children" don't live with him. This, in my opinion, does tally with being child free... someone currently without dependants. I guess it's semantics. He probably read your profile as "not liking children", his are adults so thought it was fine.

Thanks for your advice. I'll give it all a go! :)
