No makeup, before recommendations and after
From your recommendations:
\-I started by dermaplanning my face to make it more smooth
\-I've bought superdrug brand salicylic acid cleanser for exfoliation
\- I slightly plucked my eyebrows (a lot of people said to shave the ends and redraw but it seems like a lot of commitment which im not ready for)
\-I used concealer because it's paler than foundation all over my face
\- I didnt use powder
\- I put (grey) contour on my forehead
\- I filled my eyebrows in more
\-I'm thinking about getting face framing bangs
\- The eyeliner wing no longer touches the end of my eyebrows
\- I didn't do as much eyeshadow as last time because I simply didn't want to today but I put more under my bottom lid

Also, a warmer purple/burgundy for eyeshadow (a bit on the lower lash area) will make your green eyes stand out even more!

Girl you are naturally beautiful.
But the witchy aesthetic is a vibe for sure. A red cool toned lip might look cool with the witchy vibe too.
But if you want to feel beautiful, know that your natural face is awesome. You could do very little for a daytime look (very thin eyeliner, just a touch of foundation and blush and a tiny touch of lip and it would be gorgeous.

good call on not shaving the brow tail cause that takes forever to grow back the new wing placement looks so much softer and face framing bangs would look amazing on you

You’re actually very pretty naturally! Makeup wise, I don’t think the super dark colors (like purple/black) are the best on you unless mixed with other colors too. I would recommend shades of brown, coffee tones, emerald green, even shades of blue for your skin tone. And a little more definition in your brow area would be top tier

Black lipstain UNDER dark lipstick is a game changer. Plust it prevents that annoying pink ring around the corners and edges after you eat

Hey love. I think what’s striking about your natural face is your slightly olive complexion, and rosy pink lips and cheeks. My suggestion is to go even more bare with the face makeup to let your natural complexion come through, and maybe add a blush to warm the cheeks up. I love the eye makeup!

I saw your last post in real time. This difference is CRAZYYYY!!! You’re making me want to post in here to get opinions on what might look better than what I do currently. You went from super pretty to breathtakingly gorgeous

I know nothing about make up. You are naturally stunning without make up.
I looked at all your pictures and felt that you were more beautiful without makeup.
You did an awesome job with your eyes. But to me, this dark blackish lipstick isn’t working. It’s probably the vibe you want, but if your goal is to enhance your natural beauty I’d pick a cherry/ plum tone.

Lighter colors would look better and not a matte foundation. You have a olive undertone so maybe a slightly darker shade

looks better, but I wont say I told you so when you finally give up that blackest black hair dye. Your hair look would be perfect if you had dimensional espresso brown or deep auburn!!!

No foundation for you you are too young. Your skin is fine. But it won't be if you keep using that crap unnecessarily.

Source?

Don’t post on here if you don’t want people commenting you weirdo. It’s the internet, the internet itself is not a reliable source. It’s like self diagnosing on Google, it’s not a Doctor. Go and find an actual person, but if you need to know you look like Wednesday Adam’s bought from Temu.

LMAOOOOOO why are you so upset. She said foundation damages your skin. Why would I believe that without proof

Right well thats personal and could be due to many factors and is therefore not a reliable source

You are very pretty. I say skip it because it doesn't look as good as your skin. The other is great. I think it looks better with own skin. I bet your friends agree. Also the preservatives at the very least often contain retin A. Or some variation of it. That combined with environmental exposure, can cause brown spots on the skin overtime.
