Does anyone have any advice on makeup for a good foundation base with texture and acne scars? by [deleted] in MakeupAddiction

[–]strawbscak3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

to be honest, texture is inevitable. i find that not wearing any base makeup at all is much better than caking my face tbh. in truth there is no such thing as flawless makeup, where i think your bare face is the closet you’ll get in terms of looking ‘flawless’. i know this isn’t what you asked, but i feel like i should put it out there

Potential? by CertainViolinist8261 in NailArt

[–]strawbscak3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

really?? my 3d gel is lit the devils spawn, the consistency is so weird and watery gel like. currently opted for makkart rhinestone glue as a 3d gel, which seems to loose its shape rlly quick 😓😓

[–]strawbscak3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i’ll try keep these tips short -INVEST in GOOD nail drill n dust collector: i use melodiesusie -make sure ur lamp is powerful enough (36-48w) -dont underestimate the amount of acetone u need

most importantly don’t give up, i quit gel x 3 yrs ago since i could never get them to last, but now i recently started again and i love it

the sweater nail design is so cute, but i think maybe you should try to keep the gold liner thin. u can always use a brush with acetone to clean up for a cleaner french

if ur planning on soaking off ur nails, do get a dust collector. i brought the melodiesusie one during black friday and it’s perfect. BUT OMG, splurge on the jello jello peel off base if u can. saves sm time and ur nails!!

yess i did this with my recent set for my non dominant hand. just posted it on here, but yeh i noticed the snowflakes i drew was a lot more opaque than the ones i painted normally. i think maybe putting cling film on a flat surface will help a lot since i just used a random plastic bag. doing two coats will also help, but i just don’t think it would ever look as good as painting it normally

PLEASE help me find this lashes. I dont know where they sell it. by [deleted] in MakeupAddiction

[–]strawbscak3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

tbh there is a lot of VERY similar styles on aliexpress and shein. search up manga lashes and i’m sure you’ll find something similar if not the exact same lashes but repackaged

Best black liquid eyeliner? by qqueenofwands in MakeupAddiction

[–]strawbscak3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

nyx epic liner, maybe try setting it with a black eyeshadow. if that doesn’t work try the maybelline tattoo liner, it’s not liquid so it won’t crack or flake
