Hello! I'm Koko and I really like make up and have become somewhat knowledgeable about it and would like to share tips on how to apply makeup as well as recommendations for what to buy!
Everyone else is free to do the same! Share your cool looking eyeshadow ideas or a new way to do liquid liner! Recommend some blushes or brushes!
Anyways, I'm gonna start with recommendations.
Lately I've gotten lots of compliments on two things:
My eyeliner and my foundation/powder.
For my my liquid liner, I use Revlon ColorStay liquid liner! It's about 7 bucks and it's nice and dark and imo easy to apply! It's very easy to get a nice crisp line.
This is an example of what it looks like!
As for my foundation and powder, I use L'OREAL Magic Skin Beautifier BB cream for foundation and L'OREAL True Match powder. It's also not very expensive and the BB cream lasts FOREVER. I've had one tube since February! And trust me, I wear makeup on a day to day basis. You don't need too much cream to cover your face and the powder isn't too cakey either. It lasts a while (I don't have to repowder to often, even at work) and my makeup stays on pretty well for the whole day!
Here is what my foundation/powder looks like without a filter.
Now to be honest, my skin isn't too bad, I have pretty smooth skin but I do have to say that the cream does a good job at covering my acne scarring and evening my skin tone.
As well, I'd like to recommend to everyone in search of a big palette of eyeshadow to go check out bhcosmetics. There might be some knockoffs on amazon but if you're suspicious like me, then check out the bhcosmetics site and check out the 1st edition 120 color eyeshadow palette! (THERES A SALE RIGHT NOW SO IT'S $16+, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND GETTING THEM). The colors are vibrant and diverse and you have such a variety of shades and tones, it's great. The reds are very red and the blues are vibrant and the greens are too. The only colors that aren't very bright are the purples but if you wet your brush slightly, the purples show up a lot better (use eye primer too for better results.
Here are some pictures of my eyeshadow using this palette.
These are my recommendations for right now but if I come across something better then I will make a post about them!
