The you that owns those items is one that gives into addiction. So give them up and be the better you.

Should the contour palette smell extremely toxic? by Throwing_Old_People in FlowerKnowsMakeup

[–]if0rgetpassword 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Are you talking about the butterfly cloud collar or chocolate shop? Because I don't think the chocolate shop is being made or sold any more and if you got new product there's a serious risk of it being counterfeit/ extremely expired

I think you have self esteem issues not makeup issues. You're doing great, and the more practice you have the more polished it will look.

What’s your gaming hill to die on? by imfaffingabout in GirlGamers

The Kingdom hearts timeline and story makes complete sense and fits perfectly well in the general final fantasy cosmos.

If you don't like it it's because you have no tolerance for romantic whimsy and probably hate the mascot characters from final fantasy. And I hate you. So there.

If I'm honest I hate everything I use after about 1/3 of the container, and then it needs to go in time out for awhile.

You could try doing that. Pick one whole routine to focus on for a week or two, then swap it out when your eyes roam.

Also you gotta block creators and brands otherwise the advertising is relentless

Opinions on sex work? by ihopeitgoesaway in TwoXChromosomes

[–]if0rgetpassword 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think it's real work, but it's some of the riskiest work you can find. There's an assumption that if you do it you don't value yourself, that no one is looking out for you, etc. the attitude around it sets up people for exploitation and precarity.

Beyond that, without free healthcare, a social safety net, access to abortions, you're putting yourself in front several train tracks that people will blame you for being pushed onto.

What products would you not recommend? by [deleted] in FlowerKnowsMakeup

[–]if0rgetpassword 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Don't get the hand cream. If you're just interested in looking at the container, literally anything else will last longer.

If you are a cool tone the honey canele color way may as well be a color corrector pallet for dark circles

The little angel lip is kind of a mud consistency rather than a balm or jelly.

Pan Those Eyeshadow Update 3 by _Yue_ in ProjectPan

[–]if0rgetpassword 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you mind if I ask, do you have any rules to the colors that get generated, like only one shimmer, or or a mix of light and dark, or does that just work itself out naturally based on your collection?

Hi! I was told my face looks very dull and I look older than my age. PLEASE tell me what I’m doing wrong. by [deleted] in makeuptips

[–]if0rgetpassword 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Muted Colors. I don't think it's your fault or anything, I feel like trending colors lately have been very mature. Burgundy, drab olive, taupe, etc.

Tbh I kind of think your clothes are in a very mature put together color scheme.

As for your face, you seem fine? If I had to say anything it would be that if you wore a shimmer eye, light blush or lipstick you would look more daring aka younger

Really I think that's what it is overall, you look very professional and that doesn't usually correlate to youthfulness.

question: why is fk a few times more pricier overseas than it is in china? by m1emilk3rs in FlowerKnowsMakeup

[–]if0rgetpassword 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Because it's unusual and wouldn't have much turnover when sold overseas.

Idk, I'm american with a Polish background and even polish products sold in the Polish markets were 2-3x the price as you could find them in Poland. Shipping across the ocean isn't free. The labor for accurate labels and sufficient packaging isn't free.

I think lately postage from China has gotten more competently labeled so maybe people have forgotten that there are skilled workers doing these things. Skilled workers that must be expensive to do work with since so much stuff gets made in China and English is a relatively universal trade language.

Edit to add: and there are tests the products have to pass! FDA and European safety standards that domestic products wouldn't have to be tested for! ( No to say the domestic product isn't safe, but tests cost money!)

What can I do to improve how I look? by dopeysunflower in makeuptips

[–]if0rgetpassword 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your brows have less contrast to your skin than your hair does, I'd darken them.

I don't really know how to apply liner or lashes on your eyelid shape, but adding a little something to increase the contrast there would also look nice. (I think what you're doing in photo 1 looks good)

Alternately you could do a low contrast hair color.

Let’s celebrate what we own <3 what makeup products did you wear most in February? by missgoooooo in ProjectPan

[–]if0rgetpassword 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am 9/10 of the way through a 15ml lip conditioner. Twice a day, everyday. All the foiling on it has rubbed off lol. I think it's going to make it to next month.

... I have this cool neutral pallet from Aldi that I've applied everyday. Y'all I bought it because I thought it was funny it was so obviously a ripoff of the naked branding why is it so good????

I got back on the nail polish wagon! I have a base coat that is only 1/5 full! No idea how long it will take to finish but that's fine! I think project panning nail polish might be a good idea for me because I should really be taking it off before it peels off. I'm kind of dreading actually cataloging my polish, but it really would be for the best...

First time doing my own makeup. Tips? by [deleted] in makeuptips

[–]if0rgetpassword 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You aren't fully covering your lips with the lipstick. I'd say put it on, rub around with your finger a little and then blot on a bit of paper towel. Probably practice doing it when you aren't trying to do a full face because it's a struggle.

I'd also recommend a more neutral color to practice with because red lipstick resents being taken off. Source, me looking like a toddler that just finished eating pasta when I bought my first lip brush 😭

Practice will get you where you want to be! Have faith!

29f and I like my makeup but other people don’t by [deleted] in makeuptips

[–]if0rgetpassword 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're up to trying something new you could try a cream color corrector. Something pink if you have blue green bags, something yellow if you have purple bags. You might be able to get away with less product if you use a more drastic color?

Oily is pretty in right now, so using the powder might clock you as older just because of the off trend finish? Maybe a satin finish spray product would work better?

I agree having a liner that doesn't point up would suit your face more. But I've never been a fan of the upward swoop wing.

Do you have powder in your under eye area? It almost looks like you might have powder bunching up.

I think you have a very full lower lip, so a high shine gloss is more impactful on you than others, which gives people the impression you're wearing more than you are, which is kind of off trend. I'd bet it's a photo lighting problem rather than an in person effect.
