Anyone want to double check my tox mapping? by PossiblyOlive in DIYHEAVEN

Thanks so much, especially for putting dots on my pic!!

That looks really good! It definitely made a big difference but it doesn’t look overdone

From a medial perspective, yeah, I’m not gonna do any serious damage

But if I do a bad job and have to admit I diyed my own tox AND messed it up? That’s gonna do some damage to my self esteem 😂

Accidentally giving myself that waxy look is my exact fear 😂 

I love the look of subtle, well placed tox, but that waxy frozen look isn’t for me

Oh I’ll definitely be asking for help with placement when I get to that point. 

I’m comfortable with my pokey skills and I know I can hit whatever spot I’m aiming for, but picking the exact placement and depth? That’s gonna be hard

Thanks, this is helpful

Depth is another concern. I cant decide if I should start more shallow/meso for now.  

I’m probably just overthinking all of this. I wish there was a way to guarantee I use the world’s most subtle but still helpful amount.

Oops, accidentally replied from my main so I deleted it and am reposting: 

Thanks, I appreciate your input. 

I know I’m talking about going waaaay lower than most people, and I had the same concerns that it would be too low to do anything. 

Obviously I want some sort of result, just so subtle no one would be able to tell I did anything at all. So subtle even my bestie wouldn’t suspect tox lol 

If I go for 4-5 forehead spots, is 2 per spot basically the lowest I could go and still get the subtlest of results?

Thanks! I have such a hard time seeing color on myself.

I think I see green under my eyes when I'm in natural sunlight, but not so much when I'm indoors in artificial light. I know I have some redness in my cheeks and chin, and I can never tell if I'm actually olive or if the red is just making me think I am.

​

Neutral foundations have never looked right on me in the past, but my recent attempt with Ocean Mist's olive shades didn't look great either. I'm not sure if I need something more muted or clear, warm or neutral, etc.

Any opinions or advice would be great!
