      my girlfriend gave me a big cheat sheet so ill paste that here :3

      some things i like to remember that arent in this are that when youre buying concealer and foundation to get them around your skin tone, slightly lighter. youll get the hang of it after a couple goes!

      always make sure to wipe off at night so you dont break out


      Guide to Makeup:

      1 - Spray Primer on face and rub it around till it covers entire face + front of neck.

      3 - Apply concealer to face. Cover any blemishes such as pimples and cuts, personally I cover my brow bone because I find it not feminine enough for my tastes with myself. If you do the brow bone make sure to get under the eyebrows. Get under your eyes no matter what, and get right beneath your adams apple if you so please to lighten up the bottom so it looks less pronounced.

      9 - Take your sponge and rub the concealer you put on your face around in a circular motion to blend.

      2 - With the same sponge squirt liquid foundation on it and basically rub it all over your face and neck making sure to blend it all together, it should look fairly seamless with your face.

      6 - Take a brush or the brush in the case for the blush and smile and apply it to your now pronounced cheeks.

      (Optional) - Apply fake eyelashes with eye glue on the band. Attach with care, this may take a few attempts don’t get discouraged even if it takes upwards of 10 or more.

      4-5 - Take a smaller brush and apply the eye shadow of your choice to your eyelids. You can do this last but it’s better to do so first or you may have to redo your eyeliner to get it to be bold.

      7 - Take your eyeliner and make a very light outline directly beneath your eye, practically on the bottom of the crease where your eye is. Optionally add what is called a “Wing” to your eyes by draw the brush from the skin on the outside of your eye to the corner of your eye, this gives it a triangle esque shape. Then make an outline on the bottom of your eyelid, this can be a little thicker than our previous line.

      8 - Apply Mascara to eye lashes, this is easy enough.

    Great job!

    It’s even more important that you’re proud of it. I always get hung up on being perfectionist.

    People who don’t wear makeup have no idea how much skill is involved. Not to mention as soon as you find a product you like, they stop making it!

    I was about to zoom in on the phone screen to see what game you’re playing or what show you’re watching, then I realized I’m a fucking idiot.
