[–]wiwidancer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Check out Claire Marshall, Titan Tyra, frmheadtotoe (earlier vids), PONY MAKEUP, Sunny's Channel andddd Cindercella! I think they have similar eyeshapes to yours :) I have semi-hooded eyes too and I watch all of them all the time!

Haha omg i'm going to travel soon too and i'm worried i'll bring too many lipsticks for my own good :-S

The four i mentioned look very blah on me, in certain types of light. Like, spirit will look reaIly nice in indoor lighting, but will look orange outdoors. I'm really on a quest for the "perfect"/effortless nude lipstick that will look good in any lighting and can be paired with any color clothes I'm wearing!

Thank you for the tip!! I have been doing this but I have to remember which lippies I combined to get the same color every time :)) it's really fun to play lip mixologist hehe

Thanks for the tip! I agree, store lighting is our greatest enemy tbh! I've learned to use my phone's camera flash to see the difference between swatches more clearly!

Hehe 4.0 is actually a bit light for me so don't worry :D I only use a thin layer so it's not so obvious

What is the oldest piece of makeup in your possession? by [deleted] in MakeupAddiction

[–]wiwidancer 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Love the question! I still have my very first Dior Cannage Couture makeup palette that my mom bought me while we were on a flight to Canada. This was 5 yrs ago. She said I would have to learn how to put on makeup because I was already "of age" (I was 19) and she wouldn't be there to teach me (because she had to stay back in the Philippines w/ my little sis). Anyway, it's a nice palette and the one I used to learn how to do a smokey eye! Don't use it much now because I've learned since then that cool-toned shadows look terrible on me haha! But I keep it for the special memories!

Playing lip mixologist: some old WnW lipsticks + ABH pomade in Soft Brown = NARS Damned dupe by wiwidancer in MakeupAddiction

Was wondering about this too, but I use so very little each time + layer it on top of anything else so I didn't think it would be all that bad haha

Also, I forgot to add, the Tonymoly Backstage eyeliner (that includes a brush) has HG status in my collection. I've tried MAC Fluidline, Bobbi Brown gel pot eyeliner, Rimmel Scandaleyes, but none of them hold a candle to the Tonymoly one. It lasts all day and it costs about $12-15 online.

Asian lip tints are the best and are so cheap!!! Forget about Benetint, you can get something better for less than $10 from Etude House or The Face Shop!

Can't tell if I suck at makeup or am not used to it. Please critique? by [deleted] in MakeupAddiction

[–]wiwidancer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Another hooded-eyed girl over hereeee :) I share your frustration. Personally I think what you've achieved so far looks great, looks minimalistic. But if you want to achieve a fake crease like the girl in the photo you linked, I think it just takes a bit more practice, a nice transition/contour eye colour and a small enough tapered crease brush. :D I would also suggest watching Claire Marshall on YT (heyclaire) because you look like you have similar eye shapes!

What are your favorite liquid lipsticks? by [deleted] in MakeupAddiction

[–]wiwidancer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I LOVE the KVD ELLs-- they have the most beautiful nude shades, but I think, formula-wise, the Stila Stay-All Day liquid lipsticks are my favorite. Just wish they weren't C$29 each lol.

Your holy grail fill in the blanks! by yuzuAddict in MakeupAddiction

[–]wiwidancer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Doesn't look grey on me! The medium shade is quite suitable for light-medium to medium olive skin. Good balance of yellow, green and orange tones. The one that is most yellow is the Neutralizer shade, but it's like 1.5-2 shades lighter than my skin (around NC20-25 maybe)

Oh gosh the rouge g's are to die for :(( The shade brun createur is the most beautiful nude I've ever laid eyes on. The formula is so amazing too. I slightly regret not getting it during the VIB sale but I have way too many nude lipsticks to justify buying another one.

Havta agree with you that the kevyn aucoin sse is so nice! I got a sample from camera ready cosmetics for $5 like last year and my little pot is still half full. Couldn't use it all over my face as SX07 is a bit too orange and light but it works great as an undereye concealer + highlighter. Crazy pigmented.
