what is your greatest challenge in makeup?

[moonlit]

eye makeup.. I suck at it

I keep trying it but it never comes out as good as what I see on specktra and on girls on youtube

My challenge is creating poreless skin with makeup. I've recently realized you need to focus more on skincare for that! I've also learned that using a medicated concealer to fill my pores has really really helped. Not only in hiding them, but in actually helping keep them clear.

I use Revlon Colorstay blemish concealer and I'm so happy with it.

I also totally suck at falsies and gave up on them! I've wasted a bit of $$$ trying to get them to work for me. I'm fine with mascara now lol.

I'm eyeshadow placement challenged. I really have to watch it or I bring the shadow down too far on the outside of my lids. Same with applying eyeliner.

I always use the same colors! Ugh I hate it. I have SOOOOO many options and always end up back at the same few.

Also, I have yet to create an all black lid smokey eye that I can actually wear. I'm starting to give up on the idea. Maybe its my lid/eye shape that I just can't pull it off.

And last but not least, falsies! I have like 10 pairs that just sit there cause I can NEVER put them on myself. My extremely curly and fairly long lashes always get in the way.

I am the same.
