#primer and sometimes concealer

[puck-luck]

congratulations on 1k!!!! you deserve it:) i am wondering if i can request 7 of diamonds w matt rempe? but if you don’t want to write for him quinners is just fine ☺️ maybe like him trying to persuade you not to go out with your girlfriends that night

i don't normally write for matt, but i had already written this prompt for quinn, so i didn't want to completely nix your request! i did what i could! i don't fw matt rempe that way, but i hope this was fine <3

warnings: no actual p in v, but matt is trying REAL hard to make it happen. over the clothes touching, a lot of sensual kisses, persuasion (begging?) from matt

wc: 592

“You have to go?” Matt groans, following you into your bedroom. You’d just finished touching up your hair for girl’s night, so now you have to do your makeup.

“You sound like Barron Trump,” you tell him. “‘I have to go to school now? Now I have to go to school?’” 

“Hardy har,” Matt says with a sarcastic and low laugh. He sticks his tongue out at you, standing behind you when you sit down at your vanity and putting his hands on your shoulders. “I can’t believe Alley got you hooked on that TikTok sound. It’s not that funny.”

“I like it,” you reply with a shrug as Matt starts to massage the area where his hands rest. “It is the only light in the darkness, Matty.”

“What time do you have to be there?” Matt asks, watching your face in the mirror. 

“Speaking of your sister, she’s picking me up in an hour.” You rub primer into your skin, the first step of your routine. Since it’s just Alley and a few of your friends that you’ve known forever, you don’t plan on going full glam today. You’ll probably just do some foundation, concealer, eye makeup, and your lips. 

“An hour?” Matt asks. “You’ve got so much time! Come lay down with me, c’mon. Please,” he drawls out, pouting at you and batting his eyelashes. “Alley won’t mind if you’re a little late.”

“I can’t always be late,” you admonish, frowning at Matt in the mirror. “That’s why I’m getting ready so early, M. So that I’m not late.”

Matt groans, exaggerated and long. “When you finish your makeup, will you come lay with me?”

You know that he’s going to keep asking, so you relent. “If I have time, I’ll come lay with you.”

Matt grins and kisses the back of your head, bending at the waist to do so. He’s so much taller than you when you’re sitting– it’s kind of hilarious. He goes to lay on the bed, sometimes scrolling on his phone and sometimes admiring you while you do your makeup. 

You finish with plenty of time, already wearing the outfit that you’d planned for tonight. You stand from the vanity and walk over to Matt, poking him on the thigh and telling him to scoot over. 

Matt does, then he rolls so that he’s halfway on top of you. He presses you into the mattress and breathes in your shampoo. He grabs his phone and lays his arm over your stomach, touching his forehead to your temple as he continues to scroll on Instagram. It isn’t long until he starts to kiss your cheek, then your jaw, then your neck. His kisses get more and more wet as he moves south, finally pulling your shirt to the side and escalating to leaving a hickey on your skin.

“Matthew,” you scold, pulling him away from the juncture of your neck and shoulder by his hair. “What are you doing?”

He groans like he’s been found out, although his actions were anything but sneaky. “Let me give you a reason to stay in bed,” he persuades, sneaking his hand under your skirt and petting over your panties. “C’mon, Alley won’t mind.”

You fix him with an unimpressed look, but he’s smiling and still touching you. 

“You know you want to,” he teases. “And I’m headed on the road soon, we can’t waste any time.” He nibbles at your neck after that and you start to laugh.

“You’ll have plenty of time with me after girl’s night, Matt.”

such a pretty doll

part two of my little brat, but can be read alone!

pairing: erik campbell x y2k!spoiled!girlfriend reader

genre: fluff

warnings: sitting on erik’s lap, reader lovesss makeup and fashion and nails, erik is a bit of a dick, erik uses pet names, reader calls erik “kiki,” no use of y/n, slightly suggestive themes

summary: After Erik complains about carrying you home, you decide to get back at him by doing his makeup… and his hair and his nails.

word count: 1.6k

the idea for this fic was proposed by @vin-taege!

Erik knew what he was in for when he decided that he wasn’t going to carry you the entire way home. And as much as he liked to act like he didn’t want you to pretty him up, you knew how much he loved it when you did. So, of course, that night when the two of you got back home, you sat down on his lap and just about begged him to let you make him over.

“Please, KiKi?” You murmured the words against the skin of his neck as you straddled his lap, knowing that he couldn’t resist you when you were like this. You were right. This convinced him much better than just sitting at the end of his bed ever would have.

Erik let out a sigh and rolled his eyes. “Fine. If that’s what you really want to do, then go on ahead,” he huffed. You knew he wasn’t actually upset about this, though. You saw the way his lips curled up when he looked in the mirror every single time after you were done doing this, and no matter how much he denied it, he loved looking at himself with makeup all over his face and hair chalk in different streaks of his hair.

You excitedly squealed, hopping off of his lap and looking in the place in his room where you stored your belongings. You almost lived at his house nowadays, so more of your things were here than at your own place.

You grabbed your bag of makeup, your hair chalks, and a headband to hold his hair back when you were doing his makeup, which was what you typically started with. It was the process that took the longest, and also the one that he acted like he disliked the most.

One of the main things that you knew Erik loved about this process was getting to be so close to you. You sat on his lip every single time and his hands were always on your hips, your thighs, caressing your face. Sometimes, he would get a bit too bold and thrust his hips up into yours. You had to remind him that you were doing his makeup, not trying to fuck.

Tonight, he seemed a bit more over it than usual. Likely because you had just forced him to carry you home and you decided that you wanted to turn him into your Barbie doll. Well, more like Monster High or Bratz, but still, you wanted to turn him into your doll. More so than usual, too, because you wanted to put some of your press-on nails on him, maybe even one of your pretty dresses.

You hadn’t told him that part yet, though. You were going to make it a surprise.

You began by cleansing his face and then applying a primer to it, seeing as you wanted to make sure that you were taking proper care of his skin. He groaned when you put the primer on his face.

“The shit always makes my face feel all sticky and gross. I hate it.” He closed his eyes tightly before opening them again to look at you. You giggled and poked his nose with your pointer finger.

“It’s supposed to make your face feel sticky, silly boy. It helps the makeup stick better and gets rid of patchiness.” You just smiled at him as he rolled his eyes at you. Even with his attitude, his hands stayed on your hips. His fingers were under the fabric of your clothing so he could trace light circles into your flesh. It was very calming for you, so you knew it was for him as well.

You continued by putting concealer in a few areas on his face, blending it out with a damp beauty blender. Erik was already beginning to get a bit frisky, his hips rolling up into yours slightly as you blended out the concealer. You swatted at his shoulder.

“Erik,” you said, your voice slightly harsh. He just chuckled, looking up at you with that devilish smirk that he knew drove you wild. Not when you were like this, though, so focused on doing his makeup. You couldn’t let your mind slip. You had in mind an eyeshadow look, and you wanted to ensure that it was absolutely flawless. You needed to execute it perfectly, so you couldn’t let Erik distract you.

You finished off the base of Erik’s makeup before moving onto his eyes, the part that was going to be the most difficult out of everything. You knew you would have to take your time on it, which would either soothe or irritate Erik. You didn’t know which it would be just yet.

Sometimes, he liked when you took a long time. That meant he got to have you on his lap for longer, got to enjoy the feeling of your weight on him, the feeling of your hips beneath his hands. He couldn’t look at you like he wanted to while you were doing his eye makeup, though, and that was slightly irritating for him.

You began with Erik’s eye makeup, making sure that he didn’t crinkle up his eyes when he closed them. “Don’t do that, KiKi. It’ll mess me up and then I’ll have to start all over.”

“Oh, gods, no. Please don’t do that.” His voice was rough, causing you to giggle. He was so bad at acting like he didn’t like this when you knew that you would have crescent moon shapes on the skin of your hips from how much he loved sinking his fingertips into your flesh while you were on his lap like this.

You worked for a while with his eye makeup, ensuring that the eyeshadow, eyeliner, glitter, mascara, and the false lashes were all perfect as well as symmetrical on each side.

Once you perfected Erik’s eyes, you moved onto his lipstick. You decided on just a simple hot pink color for this part. You overlined his lips slightly and then applied a bit of glittery pink eyeshadow over the lipstick, just to make it pop a bit more.

When you were finished with Erik’s makeup, you smiled at him and ran your fingers through his hair. “You’re so pretty already. But you know I’m not done yet.” You giggled and leaned forward to press a soft kiss to his nose.

Erik sighed, leaning his head back against the headboard. “I know. Spray that shit on my face and then start on my hair.”

“Erik, what have I told you about that attitude?” You furrowed your eyebrows and rolled your hips on Erik’s, causing a low moan to escape his lips.

“I’m sorry,” he muttered, causing you to giggle once more. You put all of your makeup back in the bag and grabbed your hair chalks and colored hair spray that you would be using to highlight certain parts of his hair in different shades of pink.

You got started immediately, taking a few strands and rubbing one of your favorite light pink chalks on it. It brightened his hair so that you could layer it with the hot pink hairspray you had to make it show up better. You found all of this out by experimenting with his hair rather than your own, but it definitely made it easier for you to know how to use these on your own hair.

You sprayed the hot pink hair spray on top of where you used the hair chalks, nodding your head in satisfaction at the result. You did this a few more times in other places until there were chunky highlights all across Erik’s hair.

“The fumes from that hairspray are really aggravating.” Erik watched as you scooted off of his lap. You rolled your eyes and scoffed.

“It doesn’t even smell like anything! Don’t lie, KiKi, it’s not nice.” You frowned, digging through a box of your things before you found just the set of nails that you were looking for that would look absolutely amazing on Erik.

“I have a surprise for you,” you said in a sing-songy voice. Erik didn’t give you much of a reaction, his eyes just stayed on you as you made your way over to sit on his lap again. He looked at what you held in your hands and shook his head.

“No. No, I will not be wearing those.” Erik’s voice was stern. He seemed like he really meant what he was saying. But you knew that with just a little bit of convincing, Erik would do pretty much anything you asked of him.

“Erik, please?” You almost whined. “You know you’d look so pretty with them on. And I can take them off after! It might take me a bit, but I can do it.” You looked at him with the puppy dog eyes that you knew would make him give in.

And of course, he did.

“Fine. Do it.” He splayed his hands out to you, spreading his fingers so that you would be able to apply the nails. You smiled, giddily taking them out of the package and beginning to fit them to Erik’s nails according to the size.

After you found the ones that fit, you used the nail glue to fix the nails to Erik’s fingers. You occasionally had to tell him to be still so that you wouldn’t mess up and to ensure that they were on straight, but other than that, Erik did a pretty good job with you putting the nails on him.

Once you were finished, you looked at Erik with a bright smile on your face. “You look like a doll,” you said happily.

Erik chuckled and nodded his head. “Just like you. Such a pretty doll.”

‎ . ݁⋆ ۶ৎ ݁˖ . ݁my summer makeup routine (with result pics at the end!)

let me know if you angels would want a youtube video sometime soon so i could better show my makeup routine; i'd love to make one! i'm open to any recommendations, tips, advice, etc. as well!

--------------------------------

--------------------------------

but first... skincare!

wash my face (find a good, gentle cleanser for the mornings)

always find a good, gentle cleanser when washing your face in the morning. i know some people's skin just needs a rinse with water, while others need a cleanser to avoid breaking out. for me personally, i use the nu skin 180 cleanser*(read below for more info).

pat my skin dry, no vigorous rubbing! (be gentle to yourself)

i love using a soft, fluffy microfiber face towel to pat myself dry. if you can, i would recommend finding a way to heat or steam the towel to give yourself a mini spa experience in the morning!

apply skincare products (less is more)

while my skin is still slightly damp, i first go in with the wellage real hyaluronic blue ampoule** and lightly slap it into my skin. after a minute or two, i then apply the medicube zero pore one day serum and do the same. after it is fully absorbed, i use the dermaesthetics multi cream as a moisturizer.

never skip sunscreen and sunblock! (the best skincare.)

i use a combination of sunscreen and sunblock everyday, since i'm pretty pale and burn easily. i use the la roche-posay anthelios uv immune 50+ sunscreen first, as it is a chemical sunscreen. after it settles in my skin i go on top with the dermaesthetics uv shield sunscreen protection. this is a physical sunblock and leaves a bit of a white cast, but actually works on me to even out my skin tone! it is also extremely water and sweat resistant, so it stays on all day!

--------------------------------

--------------------------------

finally... time for makeup!

extra skin prep if needed (always wait 10 minutes after skincare)

sometimes i brush out my hair, pick out an outfit, or journal while i wait for my skincare to fully absorb into my skin before makeup. if i wait a bit too long, i like to apply some medicube triple collagen serum to add some moisture and tackiness back to my skin! this acts a bit like my primer, and helps my makeup cling to my skin.

foundation... or not? (thin layers > full coverage)

especially for summer, i stick to my laneige neo cushion matte in the shade 21n beige which also has spf 42! if i'm not using my cushion for whatever reason, i use the fenty beauty eaze blurring skin tint in the shade 7.

optional concealer if needed! (only for brightening or blemishes)

i usually don't wear concealer, but if i do it's either nars radiant creamy concealer in the shade 1 chantilly, or hourglass vanish airbrush concealer in the shade 2.5.

bronze! (add some dimension to your base!)

bronzer is my best friend as someone that doesn't tan easily. i use the sephora collection matte bronzer powder in shade 01 golden gateway. i use this as a general bronzer around the face, but also to help contour my nose tip and bridge.

blush! (my FAVORITE step!)

part one of my blush: i apply my blush right by my undereyes and concentrate it in the centers of my cheeks, then blend with a large kabuki brush. i either use the milk makeup cooling water jelly tint in shade burst - poppy pink (in which case i blend out with my fingers so it isn't too streaky), or a dot of the flower knows strawberry cupid all day glow liquid blush in shade s03 pink gemstone. i like to look flushed from temple to temple, almost like a faint sunburn. i also apply excess blush to the tip of my nose, my forehead, and my chin!

part two of my blush: i set everywhere with blush (and concealer) with the flower knows strawberry rococo embossed blush in shade 01 angel chanson. this adds just a bit more color and sets everything!

doll up, doll eyes (the most tedious part of my routine)

eyelashes: as someone with straight, stubborn asian lashes, i hold a lighter to the shiseido eyelash curler to heat up the cushion and better curl my lashes. after they're properly curled from root to tip, i go in with the judydoll 3d curling eyelash iron mascara a.k.a. the best mascara ever made. i concentrate the application from the roots to where the lash starts to curl upwards for the first coat. the second and third coats focus more on length, volume, and separating the lashes to my liking. this will stay ALL DAY.

eyeliner: i've gotten pretty good at my straight, slightly angled wing eyeliner so this step doesn't take me long at all. i do two quick lines with either the sephora collection hot line brush waterproof liquid eyeliner or the nyx epic ink waterproof liquid eyeliner. always brush tip over felt tip, and especially over pencils.

lips! (honestly a rare step)

i either lightly line with the nyx suede matte lip liner in cannes and blend out into the rest of my lips, or use the skinfoods tomato jelly tint lip in no. 1 cherry tomato and wipe off immediately. to add gloss/shine, i usually use the dhc lip balm.

set it all day (the most important part)

don't forget this is for summer, angels! i go straight in with the fenty beauty invisimatte instant setting + blotting powder, then douse myself with the urban decay all nighter setting spray. it doesn't end there. after that dries down, i lock it in with the one size on 'til dawn setting spray and try not to inhale. if you're feeling extra whimsical, use the new one with glitter in it!

--------------------------------

final look (& face reveal):

--------------------------------

thank you for reading angels ⭑.ᐟ

let me know by interacting, commenting, or messaging me if you would ever like a more in-depth video for my everyday makeup. i could even make personalized ones for your individual questions, just reach out! and if you haven't heard it yet today, i'm proud of you!

love, kate

*it would feel wrong to not mention this so: nu skin is a known mlm; i do not purchase from any of these distributors nor do i support this company model! i get products for free from corporate employees, NOT independent distributors. while this product works the best for my skin, i do not recommend purchasing. **only use this/hyaluronic products daily if you live in a humid climate since it absorbs moisture, otherwise it will draw the moisture out of your own skin.

FAITH’S GUIDE TO GET THAT LOOK: FOXY BROWN

I've decided to start a series based around the prettiest and flyest black women! I've decided to start with the 'darkskin Christian Dior poster girl, ' Foxy Brown! Think 90s minimalism that isn’t shy of colour, Donna Karan, Gucci by Tom Ford, Christian Dior Spring RTW 2000, leather and coloured furs, iced out jewellery and the sickest heels you’ve ever seen, some bohemian style accessories, dark thin eyebrows and dark lips that match your black mini dress.

When Foxy took off in the 90s minimalism was all the rage, most rappers and R&B singers were in leather , denim sporting casual styles that were dressed up with gold jewellery and fur. Foxy adopted this style whilst adding her own flair. She was flashy and sexy but her style still remained simple and classic. Matching her lyrics, where she expressed her love for designer and high fashion, hyped herself up as a sex symbol whilst still being a classy lady.

HAIR

Foxy often wore sew ins with an invisible parting straight or wavy were her usual texture options. The invisible parting sew in has been a technique used by stylists since sew ins came on the scene.

But to add your own flair to this look, wear your hair how you feel best.

NAILS

Foxy's nail length often varied, but regardless of length, the colours remained neutral, sometimes black. Her commonly worn nails were medium length and nude-pink acrylic overlay (think getting your nails done and they put the acrylic on and apply a clear/light pink finish and don't paint it further)

THE FACE

Foxy's features were always highlighted without her ever putting too much on her face.

THE BROWS

Eyebrows can be thinned using an eyebrow razor, shaving cream and tweazers.

When it comes to makeup use an eyebrow pomade to follow the shape of your thin brows to define them.

BASE

Foxy always had a flawless skin-like base.

To achieve this you will need:

Primer

Fan/ something to fan yourself with

Foundation

Foundation brush

Lighter but not super light concealer

Concealer brush

Pressed powder

Setting powder

Powder Brush

Powder Puff

Bronzer

Eyeliner

Mascara/Cluster Lashes

Lip Liner

Lipstick/Lip Gloss

STEPS

After filling in your brows, apply primer to your face

#faithtip: apply a pump of primer to your finger and apply it to your laugh lines to help reduce the appearance of laugh lines

Fan your face dry

#faithtip: use a powder brush to apply baby powder all over your face, pay extra attention to lines and creases so your makeup doesn't crease too much

Your face will look super ashy after this step, but applying foundation will fix this

Do not put too much on or it will be too cakey apply small dots to each part of your face and apply a bit more where needed

Blend it in with a foundation brush

After blending in your foundation apply a concealer that is only slightly lighter than your skin tone to your under-eyes

Apply a little bit of bronzer along your hairline, your cheekbones and a little bit on your jaw.

Now use a powder brush to pat press powder into your face.

Then use a powder puff to apply setting powder your under eyes following your eye shape, your chin, your cupids bow and a clean line under your brow.

EYES

Foxy loves to highlight her eyes sometimes subtly, sometimes heavy.

Use an eyeliner pencil/pen/black eyeshadow and apply it to the outer corners of your eye, creating a small wing.

Then use a small eyeshadow brush to smudge it slightly, still maintaining the shape and direction of the wing

Now depending on how dark you want your eyes to appear use mascara on you eyelashes or apply individual lashes for a more dramatic look.

HOW TO APPLY CLUSTER LASHES:

Strip lashes can also be cut into smaller pieces or use cluster lashes

Dip them into glue and wipe off the excess

Use tweezers to hold the lashes

Pull the top of your eyelid upwards so you can see underneath your eyelashes

#faithtip: Wipe the glue on the part you are applying to then you can dip the lash in glue again before actually placing it underneath your lash

This make the lashes more firm and secure

Make sure it is not too close to your eye as this can be irritating

Fan your eyes if you can still feel wet glue

BACK TO THE BASE

Using a powder brush, brush away/blend out the loose powder, under your eyes

Blend VERY well, as the powder has been sat on your face for a while, so it will not move easily

Now apply setting spray to your face till it's wet

Fan your face till dry

LIPS

Foxy either loved a dark lip or dark lip liner

A common hack for this time was holding a lighter slightly close to your lip liner to melt it slightly, for smother application and darker appearance

FOR A DARK LIP

Use a dark black/marron/purple lip liner

Then apply a lipstick/lipgloss in the same/slightly lighter shade

DARK LIPLINER AND PINK LIP

Line your top and bottom lip

Appy a pink lip gloss or lipstick in the middle

Go over your lip liner if you must

Blend your lip liner slightly

Apply a clear lip gloss or keep it matte in true 90s essence

FASHIONS

OK! Let's get into Miss Foxy's fashions. Foxy's style is characterised by sex appeal, glamour and sleek minimalistic styles. Like her contemporaries, her style was glamourous whilst simplistic and classy.

TOPS

There are so many pictures of her wearing mostly sleeveless tops. Vests, halter tops, tube tops you name it. With or without a jacket. She often wore plain tops with not graphics or patterns on them but if there was any logo on the shirt it usually remained minimalistic.

TUBE/BANDEAU TOPS

HALTER TOPS

TANK TOPS

BOTTOMS

She wore a range of bottoms often dependent on occasion and weather.

MINISKIRTS

CAPRI'S

MID/LOW WAISTED JEANS

SHOES

Foxy in any picture is mostly seen in heels, boots, stilettos, wedges from Gucci, Manolo Blahnik, Dior etc. but she occasionally wore sneakers/trainers in pictures where she is seen in sneakers they are from Chanel. A popular sneaker at the time as well was the Prada America’s cup.

HEELED BOOTS

STILETTOS

SNEAKERS/TRAINERS

OUTERWEAR

Fur and Leather wear in rotation for Foxy, making her looks more glamorous.

FUR COATS

LEATHER

OTHER PIECES

LOGOMANIA

MINIDRESSES

BAGS

Her bags were often small or medium sized and she would often opt for a small shoulder bag or a medium-sized handbag that she could wear on the crook of her arm.

JEWELRY

Bangles, chains, hoops, dainty bracelets and watches and dramatic drop earrings. Foxy was seen in different metals not just gold or silver. Her accessories usually elevated her minimalistic looks, almost transforming the outfit into a new look.

[pansyfemme]

what makeup products do you use? :3

ok i’ll see if i can do this without rambling. i use a mix of drugstore products and fancy ones i’ve gotten as gifts <3

i use elf power grip primer and setting spray. for face, i really don’t like the look of anything too opaque so i use glossier skin tint and milk concealer just on my undereye area. for blush, i reallllly like the milk jelly blushes, they’re perfectly sheer in the way i like and very cute. for lips, i prefer using lip stains and tints, i have a few cheaper ones but i do have one benetint i use a lot. and my lip gloss of choice is the too faced kissing jelly i love it soooo much ive tried a loooot of lip glosses and ive never found one that’s both that thick and glossy and sheer. my eyeshadow pallete is ‘mad about hue’ by colorpop, i use the light blue color constantly lol. and for eyeliner and mascara i use the too faced better than sex. thats about it <3 sometimes i use lashes (from likely cosmetics, an indie brand i really like) but not super often bc im always running out of glue lol.

but generally i’ve realized that i like a sheer face coverage, a lip and cheek tint, lip gloss, colorful eyeshadow, eyeliner and a powerful mascara and a dewy finish. i just feel really cute.

Toni is actually so pretty like wth so how about reader doing makeup on him?

tags:: @barcapix @n0vazsq @httpsdana @paucubarsisimp @universefcb @nngkay

‘why am i doing this again?’

toni was sitting stiffly in front of you, his arms crossed over his chest, watching with narrowed eyes as you laid out your makeup products on the desk. he was clearly trying to act like he wasn’t into this, but the way he kept sneaking glances at the different brushes told you otherwise.

‘because i asked nicely,’ you said sweetly, picking up a beauty blender. ‘and because you love me.’

he rolled his eyes. ‘i don’t remember agreeing to this.’

‘well, you didn’t say no either, soooo…’ you trailed off, smiling.

he sighed, rubbing his temple like you were giving him a headache. ‘you better not make me look stupid.’

you gasped, clutching your chest in fake offense. ‘excuse me? when have i ever made you look stupid?’

toni gave you a look. ‘do you want me to list examples?’

‘shut up and let me do your makeup.’

he huffed but sat up straighter, finally relenting. you straddled his lap, cupping his face between your hands.

‘okay, first of all, you have great skin,’ you said, smoothing some primer over his cheeks. ‘this is almost unfair.’

he smirked. ‘good genetics.’

‘whatever.’ you rolled your eyes but couldn’t help smiling.

as you started blending foundation onto his face, he sat incredibly still, his jaw tense like he was concentrating hard.

‘toni, you can relax,’ you giggled.

‘this requires focus,’ he said seriously.

you snorted. ‘it’s literally just makeup. you act like i’m giving you stitches.’

‘you’re holding something very close to my eye. i need to be prepared.’

he was being so dramatic, but you loved it.

you worked quickly, adding concealer under his eyes, setting everything with a light dusting of powder. his sharp cheekbones made contouring a dream, and when you brushed highlighter onto the high points of his face, he blinked in surprise.

‘it’s shiny,’ he murmured, turning his face slightly.

‘yes, baby, that’s the point.’

his brows furrowed, but he didn’t argue.

when you got to the eyeshadow, you hummed, tilting your head. ‘i think a soft brown would look good on you.’

toni raised an eyebrow. ‘you sound like you’ve been waiting to do this for a long time.’

you grinned sheepishly. ‘maybe.’

he sighed, but there was no real annoyance behind it. ‘just don’t make me look like a clown.’

‘trust me, i’m making you look pretty.’

he muttered something under his breath, but let you continue.

by the time you finished blending the eyeshadow and adding a tiny wing to the corner of his eye, you were practically bouncing with excitement.

‘okay, you literally have the perfect face for this. you look so good.’

toni turned to the mirror, studying his reflection. his brows lifted slightly, his lips parting in surprise.

‘huh.’

‘see? i told you!’

he tilted his head, his fingers ghosting over his cheekbone. ‘i look… kinda cool.’

‘kind of?’ you scoffed. ‘you look incredible.’

he turned back to you, the corner of his mouth twitching. ‘alright, fine. you did a good job.’

‘thank you,’ you said smugly. ‘now, let me take a picture—’

toni’s expression immediately dropped. ‘no evidence.’

‘but—’

‘no.’

you pouted. ‘but you look so pretty!’

he sighed, shaking his head. ‘fine. one picture. just for you.’

you grinned, quickly snapping a photo before he could change his mind.

but later that night, when he thought you weren’t looking, you caught him staring at his reflection again, tilting his head side to side, admiring the soft glow on his skin.

‘do you want me to do it again sometime?’ you asked, biting back a smile.

toni cleared his throat, looking away. ‘i don’t care.’

but the way his ears turned pink told you everything you needed to know.

Title: The Date

Warning(s): murder, possessive behavior, obsession, belittling.

Request(s): none

-

Primer

foundation

concealer

mascara

eyeshadow

It was your Father, your inhuman other-then father who’s never cared about makeup that introduced you to it. It’s one of the only ways he hasn’t failed you, taught you that gender is just gender and toys are for everyone. You saw Tsumiki putting on makeup once and you felt hooked, like something entirely your own was circling your body in that moment.

Makeup is a form of control for you, something that no one forces on you or tries to change about you. Sometimes Megumi watches you do your makeup, and it was Tsumiki and your Father who taught you to do it in the first place.

Today you’re doing makeup for a very special reason. You have a date! Shintani Mashiro, a very friendly guy in your class asked you out with a shy smile and some pretty flowers. Megumi didn’t say anything so you assumed it was okay.

Now as you’re getting ready, flitting about your room, trying to decide what to wear, you feel worse then you have in months. It’s been peaceful for a while and now you’re worrying about it, wondering if you’re going to fuck up the rare peace in the house.

Deep Breath.

Deep Breath.

You have flowy pants and tighter pants in your hands when Tsumiki walks into the room. “Getting all ready?” She asks, and it occurs to you once again, that anything Megumi knows, Tsumiki does too.

“I am, but I don’t know what pants to wear.” Tsumiki makes a considering hum. “the looser ones with the black long sleeve you stole for Megumi.”

You think about for a second, and realize that she’s right. Of course she is.

Tsumiki sits on your bed as you get ready, watching you fuss over your (still white) hair. “Why are you so excited love?” She asks and you don’t know how to format your answer to make it acceptable.

“I don’t really know a lot of people so maybe this can be a chance for me.” You decide on, trying not to offend or anger her. Tsumiki considers this, opening one of the magazines you have by your bedside table.

You continue gettting ready, shedding your loungewear for the pants and long sleeve. You don’t look half bad, not at all.

“Why do you need people who aren’t family?” She asks quietly, cutting through the peaceful silence and you freeze. “I just get so bored sometimes Miki, it’ll be nice to have someone else to bother when I’m bored.”

This seems to be an acceptable answer because she comes over to kiss the top of your head and leaves you alone.

Eventually you end up in the living room, waiting for him to arrive.

Your Father walks into the living room as you’re waiting, smiling his horrible smile as usual. “Whatcha waiting for child of mine?”

You give him a small grin. “I’m going on a date, remember? I thought Megumi told you.”

“He did but you, you didn’t little one. I mean if Megs can tell me business that isn’t even his own, then I’d think you could me that you want to go out on a date of all things.”

You fucked up. You aren’t sure how but you fucked up.

“Dad I-”

“Nu-uh. I think you need a reminder of your place in this family. When that.. thing comes to the door, invite him in, offer him a drink, okay?”

“Dad please-”

“I thought we had quashed this wanting friends thing.”

“He did ask them in front of the whole class Satoru. They couldn’t really say anything without being rude, and you know how inútil feels about being rude.”

You turn to look at Megumi, leaning against the doorway, and there’s something not right about his face.

Oh shit.

Megumi’s mad too.

Here’s the problem, you don’t know why. Megumi is usually very honest and very open about his rage…

You don’t understand.

Still, when he gets here, you offer for him to come in, ask him to meet Your Father.

Mashiro smiles and offers his hands and is so gentle. Your heart hurts for what is to come.

“Sweetheart, get him a glass of water while we have our chat.”

There’s a glass of water in the kitchen already and you know that this boy, this kind, stupid boy isn’t going to leave this place alive.

Still, you take the water to him, and sit down next to him. Your Father is still speaking kindly.

Mashiro drinks all of the water.

You feel sick.

As Mashiro starts to choke, Your Father leans over him.

“Know this,” He hisses, furious, “You are nothing but a lesson. They will never find your body.”

Even as he dies and you sob and sob and sob, Megumi watches you. He’s always watching but instead of his usual indifference, there’s a sick pleasure.

You promise yourself that you’ll never forget this.

Makeup Pro!

The living room was quiet, save for the occasional hum of the TV and the distant chatter of people outside. Will was sprawled across the couch, his feet up, half-watching whatever game was on, when Emily, sitting cross-legged on the floor next to the coffee table, suddenly brightened with an idea. She had her makeup bag spread out in front of her, its contents scattered all around: tubes, brushes, powders, and bottles of all shapes and sizes.

“Okay, I need your help with something,” Emily said, her voice a little too excited. She held up her phone, already recording. “You ready for this?”

Will gave her a sideways glance, his eyebrows knitting together in suspicion. “Uh-oh, what are you about to make me do?”

“Don’t worry, it’s harmless,” she said, flashing a mischievous grin. “I just found this TikTok trend, and I think you’re the perfect test subject.” She held up a small tube of something clear and shiny. “First question: What’s this?”

Will stared at the tube, trying to make sense of the label. He’d seen Emily use this kind of thing before but had no clue what it was. “Uh… is it lip gloss?”

Emily snorted, not even trying to hide her laugh. “Nope! It’s a lip primer. It’s supposed to make your lipstick stay on longer.” She shook her head in mock disappointment. “Come on, man, you’re supposed to be paying attention when I do my makeup!”

Will shrugged, a playful grin tugging at his lips. “What can I say? I’m more focused on you than your makeup.”

Emily’s eyes narrowed as she held up another product, this time a small bottle with a pump. “Alright, next one. What’s this?”

Will squinted at it, then at her. “Uh, face lotion?” He said it like a question, clearly unsure.

She gave him a look. “It’s setting spray. You know, the thing I use after I’m done with my makeup to make sure it doesn’t melt off my face in 90-degree weather. You really need to pay more attention.”

He laughed, feeling a little defeated. “Okay, I’ve got this. Let’s go again. I’m warming up.”

Emily pulled out a thin, flat compact, flipping it open to reveal a soft powder inside. “What’s this, then?”

Will leaned in, pretending to think hard. “Is that… translucent powder? Or like, setting powder?” He looked at her with a half-smile, clearly trying to redeem himself.

“Okay, I’ll give you that one,” she said, nodding approvingly. “You’re getting better. It’s setting powder, but I’m not sure you know exactly what it’s for.”

“I know!” Will said defensively, sitting up a little. “It’s to stop my face from looking shiny, right?”

“Correct!” Emily said, holding the phone up higher, capturing his slightly smug expression. “Alright, this next one’s a real challenge.” She pulled out a sleek, long tube with a small wand. “What’s this?”

Will blinked, completely thrown off. He stared at the tube for a beat too long before shaking his head. “I have no idea. A mascara?”

Emily’s eyebrows shot up in surprise. “Wait, you got it right?!” She checked the screen on her phone like she couldn’t believe it. “No way, I thought I was going to throw you off with that one!”

Will shrugged with a smug grin. “What can I say? I pay attention sometimes.”

Emily laughed, shaking her head. “You’re too good at this now. Let’s see if I can stump you.”

She reached for another item from the pile—this time a little pot with a cream inside. “Okay, final test: What do you think this is?”

Will stared at it for a second, squinting in confusion. “Is that… concealer?”

Emily smirked, pulling the phone closer to her face as if she was ready to stop recording. “Nailed it. It’s concealer. You’re way better at this than I thought.”

Will leaned back on the couch, his arms behind his head. “Guess I’ve been paying more attention than you give me credit for.”

Emily laughed, setting her makeup bag aside and looking at him with a soft smile. “Okay, okay, maybe I underestimated you. You weren’t totally useless.” Will smirked, clearly enjoying the moment. “I knew I could pull it off. Just… don’t make me do this again.”Emily clicked off the phone and leaned back beside him, still grinning. “You’re lucky you didn’t get any eyebrow pencil questions. I was ready to mess with you on that one.”

“Next time,” Will said with a wink, “I’ll be prepared.”

(🎧) now playing — cool with you by njz.

masterlist.

NIKI SLIDES ONTO YOUR DESK chair like he lives there. (he kind of does at this point.)

you left hours ago, sending him a link to the footage and a simple message:

“do my voiceover plz haha”

he sent back a thumbs up emoji and a picture of him playing valorant at your setup with a bowl of dry cereal.

but — finally — the video’s up on your editing laptop. you’re centered in the frame, lips already glossy, his hoodie slipping off one shoulder like you didn’t plan that. he rolls his eyes and hits record.

“alright. this is my girlfriend. she’s about to spend thirty minutes proving she doesn’t need makeup by putting on a full face of makeup.” he says, voice flat.

you hold up your primer and flash a peace sign at the camera.

“step one: mystery goop. i think it makes your face sticky. which is apparently good. don’t ask me why.”

you start patting it in with your fingers, totally focused.

“she’s acting like she’s doing heart surgery right now. it’s not that deep, bro.”

a moment.

“okay, maybe it is. her skin looks good. whatever.”

next up is foundation. you dot it on with practiced precision.

“here comes the skin colored lotion. as if her face isn’t already smooth.”

you blend quickly with your sponge, mouth moving like you’re talking to yourself off camera.

“she’s definitely complaining about something right now. probably the sponge. or the time. she’s never on time.”

concealer comes next. you do a triangle under the eyes, and a to the chin.

“she does this everytime like she doesn’t sleep whenever she can. like it doesn’t make sense.”

you lift a brow at the mirror. he mirrors the look automatically, smirking.

“she makes that face every time. like she’s surprised it’s turning out cute. babe. it always turns out cute.”

you do your brows now. you go in with small, controlled strokes and niki hums under his breath.

“this part? she zones out completely. i could be talking to her and tell her i crashed the car and she’ll make faces then respond ten seconds later.”

then eyeshadow. you hesitate. consider. then go for the neutral and pink shades.

he nods like he predicted it.

“she does this every time. pretende she’s gonna experiment with brighterer colors and then picks the same color she always uses. at this point it’s muscle memory.”

eyeliner next. you draw a clean wing with one hand, barely blinking.

“i can’t look. i always think she’ll poke her eye.”

you pick up your lash curler and glance at the camera like you already know he’s going to say something.

“yep. the torture device.”

you clamp it, curling your eyelashes upward.

“why are you not even scared? like you’re not squeezing metal near your eyeball right now. couldn’t be me. actually, literally wouldn’t be me.”

you curl the other side with the same calmness.

“she does this in the car sometimes. i don’t know how she does it while moving. and i just have to sit there and pretend i’m not witnessing some shit out of final destination.”

you reach for your mascara next, open it and apply it to your lashes.

“this is the lash grower. like it’s literally magic.”

you pause mid swipe, mouth open, brows slightly raised like you’re trying not to mess up.

“this is the mascara face. you know the one. mouth open, eyes wide, like a fish.”

you finish one eye, then the other, blinking carefully toward the ceiling.

“honestly? she ate that. i’ve never seen someone do this without stabbing their own eye. i flinch just watching it.”

then blush. you apply it to your cheeks and the tip of your nose.

“she’s obsessed with this part. but i like watching it. it makes her look pretty and soft. and the way she uses like, nothing, and it still spreads out—“ he catches himself, laughing under his breath.

“yeah. i like this part.”

you smile at something off camera now. probably at yourself. or maybe at the joke you were thinking of when you were filming. whatever it was, it makes his heart squeeze.

“she smiles like that and i forget what i was talking about.” he says quietly.

highlighter next. it’s just enough to catch the light and you tilt your face toward the window.

“there it is. that little head tilt. she does that every time too. look at her trying not to smile. she knows she looks good. i hope she trips on her way out. just kidding. i’ll catch her.”

you’re reaching for your lip liner now, dragging it gently along the edge of your lips with precision.

niki squints.

“okay, now we’re doing… outlining. this part’s lowkey a scam. she lines her lips just to fill them in again. but i’m not allowed to question it.”

you lean in a little, still focused, overlining the top lip slightly.

“look at her. just casually redrawing her face like it’s a coloring book. i said something about it once and she was like ‘it’s called enhancing.’ okay then. my bad bae.”

you cap the liner and grab your lipstick next, a nudey pink, your go to. you tap it on lightly, almost like a stain.

“this one’s always in her purse. i don’t even know what shade it is but i like it.”

finally: lip gloss. his real enemy. you swipe it on, press your lips together, and pout a little.

niki sighs dramatically. “this part ruins my life. i go in for a kiss and she’s like, ‘nooo you’ll mess it up.’ like girl. you just spent thirty minutes turning into the human version of an angel and i don’t even get one kiss?”

you pose and he continues to talk.

“then when i finally get to kiss her i become one of those sticky mouse traps. but it’s okay. i secretly like it.” he admits.

you laugh at yourself then reach to cover the camera and the screen cuts.

he leans back in your chair, hoodie sleeves half pushed up, hand hovering over the stop button.

the room’s quiet again. the file’s done. he could stop recording.

but he doesn’t.

not right away.

he exhales, taps the desk once with his knuckle, then mutters under his breath, almost like he doesn’t realize he’s still talking into the mic.

“she’s so pretty it actually pisses me off.”

he pauses.

then speaks softer. more to himself than anything.

“…i’m so down bad for her it’s insane.”

makeup steps for a glow-tastic long lasting base ♡

+ product recommendations and tips!

a/n: this is a bit detailed so sorry it's so long. xoxo!

before makeup

what you do before your makeup can change everything. things such as how long your makeup stays, the way it sits on your face, and so much more!! it's the same way as you'd butter a pan to protect your food from buring.

before you do your makeup you should always skin prep.

1. start with a clean base.

- always wash your face. either with just water, or a water based foaming cleanser. my personal fav is the innisfree tea tree foaming cleanser! (Though be careful if you choose this one as the scent is quite strong, so if your sensitive be careful!!!) you can let your face air dry or use a clean towel to dry your face. tiny tip for drying your face: pat lightly, don't rub your face like crazy!! it can be harsh to your skin and cause irritation.

2. (OPTIONAL) Toner

- personally, I'm not a big toner person. though it has some benefits like an extra cleanness to the skin. i like medecubes toner pads from Amazon though usually I use them when I'm going to a fancy event like a nice dinner or something like that as they bring a better hydration to the skin. It really just depends on personal preference! My skin breaks out if I use to many products at once so I tend to avoid certain steps if I can just simplify, especially when I'm rushing.

3. moisturizer

- moisturizer. my shayla. the best way to make sure things such as foundation and concealer stays on and doesn't crease throught the day. my personal favs to use is the COSRX snail mucin or the innisfree dewy jelly tone up cream. (Again the smell is a bit overwhelming if your sensitive be advised!)

4. (OPTIONAL) serum

- I like serums because they make my dry spots not as harsh after concealer. i enjoy just using the COSRX 6 peptide booster serums. Though it is on the more expensive side. Along with the Madagascar Centella Poremizing Ampole right after. (I have large pores lol)

5. Sunscreen!

- my shayla #2. You should always be using sunscreen. If you don't use sunscreen I don't trust you. or if you just choose not to do it, I also don't trust you. stay away. I ask please that you use suncreen please for the love of God. ♡ It helps with aging, cleared my hyperpigmentation, and makes sure I don't get hurt by UV rays. like don't play!!

6. (OPTIONAL) oil blotting sheets

- I'm an combination skin but mainly oily girly. Oil blotting sheets are my #1 best friend so my makeup doesn't fall off like a slip and slide. it also just makes sure my makeup better penetrates (?) my skin and stays all day.

doing your makeup!

1. (OPTIONAL) Primer

- I like a good primer but sometimes it makes my makeup feel heavy. I like doing it around my oily spots because the oil on my face tends to make my makeup slide off throught the day. I like the elf power grip one if your on a budget. but if your looking to spend on a good primer, Dasique's water viel primer is really good.

2. Color corrector

- again, my shayla, color corrector. I get red easily in the face. I'm also big on blush, except when it comes to my lower cheeks where it just looks like I ran a whole marathon. I like the wet and wild prime and color corrector. But I also like numbuzin's Redness Derma Tone up. (Though it does leave a light white cast, so if your a girly of color please stay clear of the product)

3. Fondation / concealer

- I personally flip flop between doing one or the other or both. It just depends. I like to blend with my fingers personally instead of sponges and brushes because the product tends to typically get soaked up by the blender of choice imo. And also it tends to cake up the product and not apply evenly.

If your doing foundation!

- For liquid pump foundations: I like to take one to two pumps onto the back of my hand and use a spatula (or if your like me just use a clean back of a butter knife) and lightly spread evenly onto the face. Blend and continue adding another layer where needed. If you have extra I tend to just take the rest and blend down my neck

Product recommendations: CLIO - Kill cover high glow foundation, Maybelline Fit Me Foundation.

- For cushion foundations: I like to take a bit with the cushion and lightly tap the applicator off with some of the product on it onto the back of my hand or just the lid that protects the cushion from leaking. Continue by patting, going from inner part of your face to the outer, evenly tapping. Blend out the corners so you don't have a line surrounding your face of where the cushion ends. You can also use extra and blend down your neck for a seamless finish.

Product recommendations: CLIO - Kill cover high glow foundation, Tirtir - cushion foundation.

If your doing concealer! - I like to take a bit of concealer under the eyes, on my chin, around the tip and bridge of my nose, on my smile lines, and on my T zone (aka my forehead) and in any other spots needed. Then blend with my fingers. Work your way from inner to outer so evenly spread out the product. For under my eyes I try to blend upwards and down towards the sides of my nose. For my smile lines I blend outwards towards the sides of my face and my lower cheeks. For the chin I try to focus on my under lip and the tip of my chin. For the forehead, evenly spread to the hairline.

Product recommendations: NARS concealer, ELF camo concealer.

4. Contour

- I go very light on contour because I have a already prominent face. Contour can change a lot. I mainly contour the tip, side and under my eyebrow for my nose. For lips I do the cupids bow and under the lips. I used a small fluffy brush. I use a round fluffy brush for my cheekbones. I have a very round face, so I focus on the hollow of my cheeks, I never go past my eyes with the contour and I try to make a diamond shape, only contouring the outer parts. See diagram for this part!

red dots are where I don't go out of for contour. Brown is where I contour.

Product recommendations: to cool for school ART CLASS powder contour pallete, NYX cream Contour and highlight stick.

5. Blush

- I like Blush under my eyes personally. I know a lot of kpop idols do it and I love it. It also just makes my face look nice i guess. I use like a peachy pink color right under my eyes. I use Periperas ink velvet as a Blush. (😭) I like using shade 14 or shade 8 as Blush. If you have darker skin purple blushes are better for you and will look more like the desired color. I also like to re-enforce the color a bit more with a powder. Just a light peachy colors around the sides just to lightly blend it out more for a gradient look.

6. Powder

- Innisfree if you ever get rid of your no sebum powder I will have the most historical catastphic crash out. Now. The key to glowy makeup is to not look greasy/oily. Greasy/oily does not equal glowy. We are not trying to look like Namgyu from squid games hair. (Jk I love him and his greasy rat self lmao) I love Jooshca's tutorial on powder because it's so good. You want to go on the corners of your nose sort of like in a triangle. On your chin, forehead and personally places where you have placed any type of concelar. (Aka under the eyes and on problem spots) I also like to use Powder puffs or a small fluffy brush.

Product recommendations: Innisfree No Sebum Loose Powder, and the Maybelline fit me pressed powder.

7. Eyeshadow

- Now this is where I have issues. Eyeshadow can either look good or horrible. I like to start of with a base shade, typically a pinkish nude shade all over my eyelid and under my eye. Then use a peachy shade in the inner part of your lid and in the inner corners. Blend them together. Optionally, you can do ageyosal if you want. Use a skin-color shadow stick under the eyes, ending where your pupil ends. You can use a nude to make a shadow under the skin color. Then use a glitter of some sort (either on a stick or with a thin brush) along the skin color eyeshadow. Back to the eyeshadow on the lid, use a shimmery shade in the middle of your lid, evenly blending it between both sides of your eyelids. Then if you want do some eyeliner. But I'm not good at it and it also just doesn't look right to me on my face so if you don't want to don't do it. I tend to go for brown eyeliners more often though.

Product recommendations: eyeshadow- flower knows, daisque, romand. Glitter: color pop, peripera. Ageyosal: peripera, too cool for school/art class. Eyeliner: Heroine, CLIO-kills.

8. Brows

- I have large eyebrows that are filled in but you can fill them in and then use a brow gel and they look quite nice like that imo.

9. Lips.

- you can line your lips but it has always looked odd on me so I avoided it. I like the nyx lip liners and the elf ones btw. For lips you can look up douyin lip tutorials on Pinterest if you want something really detailed. For me I just apply it into the center and tap outwards onto my lips. Always hydrate your lips before putting on products! (Vasaline, lipbalm, etc)

Product recommendations: Cream shop lip oils, Peripera ink velvets, romand liquid lipsticks/lip gloss, NYX lipgloss, ELF lip oil, colorgram lip tints.

10. Setting spray:

- I tend to spray 3-4 sprays of setting spray. My favorite is the Tirtir setting spray, the elf setting spray, and the Milani setting spray. I also like to use a fan so it doesn't look to sticky or too wet.

11. Lashes

- you can use fake lashes if you want but they're just not for me unless they're extensions by a lash tech. I like to curl my lashes first then use a bit of Vaseline on a spoole on the tips to make them stay up all day. Then use a mascara. I personally like brown mascaras for a more natural look.

Product recommendations: Essence mascara (any kind), Heroine Water proof mascara, CLIO-kills mascara.

hope some of my tips help you in the future to look even more gorgeous then you already are! xoxo! ♡♡♡

[stargirlsuicide]

very bored, im working on a makeup wish / shopping lists 4 products i want to try ^^ (some of these im not sure on so lmk if u have any recs)

ive been dying to get a white foundation and ive actually found smth thats accessible and affordable which the LA girl white foundation + concealer. i actually wanted to get the sunset makeup one cuase i think their brands amazing from what ive seen on tiktok and its very long lasting but it doesnt ship to italy. the only other option that wasnt straight up face paint is haus labs but its very expensive, very sheer, and also not technically a foundation cause its a mixer shade. the LA girl foundation + concealer r my best opinions 4 this so I'm hoping and praying it has good coverage cause it is water based and those products tend to be more sheer.

i really want it to create these doll-like looks cause i think theyre super fun

this might seem odd but i really really want elmers purple glue to be able to block out my eyebrows, i scared of fully shaving them off but id love to be able to not have them sometimes. i wanna learn to draw them even with eyeliner but also i really dont think im a thin eyebrows girl. only issue is that id have to buy it online cause they dont sell it in stores here, but overall its fairly cheap

i need eyeshadows so bad, i cant do eyeshadow all too much and i do really want to learn. a lot of stuff thats more difficult to learn i havent mastered cause ive been too scared of someone pointing out my lack of skill. lately tho ive been just so obsessed with eye looks and i just really want to experiment more with colors

these types of images specifically ive just totally fallen in love with

i dont actually know a lot about eyeshadows, i do want mattes and shimmers, glitters and also like that glass shine effect, even though i dont think theres eyeshadows that have that shine im pretty sure its another product you out on top but thats my favourite look. i geniually dont know anything about eyeshadow palletes but i want to get good pigments, large range of colors, both mattes and shimmers all within a reasonable price

this is probably gonna be the longest and most boring section of this whole thing cause its all about my dilemma with base prep, setting powder and setting spray.

now for primer im pretty much set on what to get, i have this maybelline one rn and its pretty good but i really want to try the elf pink hydrating primer cause ik it has a really good grip and would probably help my makeup last for longer. the only issue with like my my skin prep before foundation is that i dont have mosturizer, and i thought it wouldnt make that much of a difference but my face does seem a bit drier. im probably gonna buy the cerave one since its the one most people like totes swear by

my main issue tho is abt setting powder and setting spray, i recently ran out of setting spray and my setting powder is centuries old so i reasonably shoulr get new ones. the dilemma is that i really want to try huda beauty but her products cost around 40 euros each and i dont think i can afford both the powder and the spray so im unsure what i should. i really wanna try the easy bake powder cause honestly the last setting spray i had was pretty good but it didnt last like at all. ultimately im probably gonna have to spend a shitload anyway cause the sephora spray i wanted to try is like 20 bucks, which is cheaper but still leaning on big purchase for my standards

i want to send a pic of my beat so bad but honestly speaking im a wimp who will NAWT be doing a face reveal BUT i will say i do get compliments on my makeup semi often and esp on my base!!!! 🙈💋

now i will warn u i am NOT a clean girl makeup girly or very natural beat at all so just letting u know i use A LOT more than most ppl i would assume use

ok lets gooo:

skincare prep: use facial cleanser (cerave hydrating or the ordinary hydrating cleanser) to wash face w either lukewarm or cold tapwater. let face air dry or use clean facial towel (i just use a mini towel) to dry face by patting the skin gently a few times max. use toner (some by mi aha bha pha toner) by patting it on face. give 30 secsish to dry. now put on moisturizer (laniege water face mask or cerave hydrating moisturizer or the face shop rice ceramide moisturizer). put on sunscreen (olay 30spf moisturizer sunscreen).

then use primer (elf hydro grip pink or blue works)

onto base: use foundation/cc cream/tinted serum depending on ur preference (f: clio kill cover mesh. cc cream: elf camo. tinted serum: loreal true match). i blend using a damp beauty blender. then i (excessively) use atleast 2-3 concealers of different shades. starting w the darkest to even out my skin tone (the body shop), medium to give more coverage (loreal instant age rewind eraser), and lightest to lighten my undereyes and other areas i like to be highlighted (peripera double longwear cover or focallure liquid concealer both from YesStyle). blend all three after each one w a beauty blender. i then use a setting spray to keep my base in place (i use the milani make it last but i do NOT recc it 🙁).

blush: yet again i am excessive w this 😜 i like looking like my crush just winked at me and i cannot handle the attention 24/7. i start w a matte blush/tint (nyx powder puff lippie or peripera ink airy velvet) then blend w my fingers. after i use a glowy blush (elf halo glow) and blend w my fingers again. lastly i "set" w a powder blush (etude cookie blush).

eyes: during my base routine i add all components from foundation to concealer on my eyes, so i blend out any excess using my fingers and even it out. i then use a white or nude eyeshadow to lighten my entire eye from the undereye to below my eyebrow bone (mac discontinued hello kitty palette or colorpop baby got peach palette...slightly pinky nude or full on white is my vibe). i go in p hard in the underye bc i like my undereye looking like ive slept 99 hours in the past wk alone. then i use any eyeshadow i want to create any kind of look, usually to match my outfit or the days vibe. i like colorpop, too faced, mac, jaclyn hill, and juvias place palettes the most. after the eyeshadow is complete i go in w a setting powder (juvias place) w a heavy hand. i also go in w powder under blush area (below cheekbone), upper lip, chin, and forhead. i let that sit all the way until im done w my lips. after placing powder w powder puff, i do eyeliner w eyeshadow of any previously mentioned palettes. i then curl my lashes, put on mascara (hourglass caution extreme lash or telescopic blue tube), and curl again. i then clean up any mascara w more eyeshadow or concealer then eyeshadow if its p bad. i then place highlighter (colorpop shock) under my brow bone.

highlighter: i use the colorpop highlighter on my nose and cupids bow. then i use a bright pink highlighter (stick w me lol ik it sounds weird) (zeesea purple 9 color eyeshadow palette) on my cheekbone and nose.

lips: three steps: liner, tint, gloss. lip liner from elf to line my exact lip shape (sometimes i round out my cupids bow if its a cutesy look). lip tint from peripera to color my lips and keep the color on for a long time or elf o satin face lip stick to do the same thing. blend out w fingers after smacking lips together. then top w gloss/lip oil (nyx butter gloss, nyx fat lip oil, ecosoul lip oil, kopari gloss, maybelline lifter gloss, hello kitty lip smacker gloss).

blend out all powder on face and set w shitty milani setting spray

WHEW MY HANDS HURTTTT

but tbh i do sm bc i love makeup and have sm fun w it. tho w using this much ik im lucky to not have acne prone skin or skin that treats makeup like a parasite. i often take 2-4 day breaks when i have days off school and or weekends which helps. not to mention i use toner pads (numbuzin no.5) once to twice a wk and use a face mask (from any brand that use food ingredients as a main ingredient) weekly.

hope this helps!!!!! 👯‍♀️👯‍♀️💋

LORDY LORDY THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS 🛐

High-Flying Beauty: A Flight Attendant’s Guide to Flawless Makeup at 35,000 Feet

Many times, I get asked by other girls about our makeup routines and how do we manage to look good all the time in rather difficult conditions. Recently, I've seen this question asked a lot on Reddit so I taught I should give my 2 cents about it.

As a flight attendant, you're not just a safety professional or a hospitality expert, you’re also a brand ambassador, often the first face passengers see when they board the aircraft. And let’s be real: looking fresh and polished while managing long-haul flights, jet lag, and dry cabin air is no small feat.

Over the years, I’ve mastered the art of in-flight beauty: a makeup routine that lasts through turbulence, time zones, and everything in between. Whether you're new to the skies or a seasoned crew member, here’s your go-to guide for staying glam in the air, without spending an hour getting ready.

The Cabin Conditions Are Not Your Friend Before we even get into the makeup bag, let’s talk about the environment you’re working in: recycled air, low humidity, and sometimes 12+ hour shifts. It’s basically a recipe for dehydrated skin, smudged eyeliner, and melted foundation, unless you prep properly.

Pre-Flight Skincare: The Invisible Hero Makeup only looks as good as the skin underneath. So if there’s one non-negotiable in my routine, it’s hydration. Here's what I never skip:

Lightweight moisturizer with hyaluronic acid or ceramides

Hydrating eye cream to combat that ‘I’ve been up since 4 a.m.’ look

Primer that grips makeup and keeps it from sliding into a mid-flight meltdown

Pro tip: A few sprays of facial mist right before takeoff locks everything in and gives your skin a dewy boost.

Flight-Proof Makeup Essentials Now, let’s break down a foolproof routine that’s quick, clean, and keeps you looking fresh from boarding to landing.

Base That Doesn’t Budge Skip heavy foundation. Opt for a long-wear tinted moisturizer or BB cream, something breathable with just enough coverage. Top it with a little concealer under the eyes and on any blemishes. Bonus if it contains SPF (you'd be surprised how much sun exposure comes through those plane windows!).

Eyes That Stay Awake Keep it simple. A neutral cream eyeshadow, waterproof mascara, and tight-lined eyeliner are more than enough. Avoid powder shadows, they tend to crease in dry air. And remember: raccoon eyes mid-flight are never cute.

Brows That Frame Your Face Even if you wear no other makeup, groomed brows can pull everything together. Use a tinted brow gel or pencil to fill in sparse areas. Keep it natural, this isn’t a red carpet runway.

Blush & Glow Cabin lighting is brutal. A soft cream blush adds warmth and color back to your face without looking overdone. Dab a little cream highlighter on your cheekbones to stay radiant without looking shiny.

Lips: Hydrate + Tint Dry lips are a given at high altitude, so always start with a hydrating balm. I love a tinted lip oil or stain because it gives a pop of color and doesn’t smudge under your mask or during meal service.

In-Flight Touch-Up Kit I keep a mini kit in my uniform pocket or tote for quick refreshes:

Tinted lip balm or lipstick

Blotting sheets or pressed powder

Hydrating facial mist

Travel-size concealer

Tiny mirror

This keeps me polished through delays, turbulence, and red-eye flights without redoing my whole face.

What Airlines Don’t Tell You (But I Will) Some airlines have strict grooming standards, including specific lipstick shades or nail colors. Learn the policy, but find ways to express yourself within those rules. The right makeup can become part of your personal brand, and passengers do notice when you show up looking sharp.

That said, it’s not about being perfect. It’s about showing up as your best self, even when your layover is four hours and your last real sleep was a nap in a jumpseat.

Final Descent: Confidence Is Your Best Cosmetic At the end of the day, makeup for flight attendants should work for you, not against you. It’s there to help you feel confident, professional, and put-together, no matter how chaotic the travel day gets.

There are many tutorials on youtube that might help but for some reason most of them are in hindu language. Here's a decent one covering some basics that I managed to find:

So go ahead, rock that bold lip or glowing skin. You’ve earned your wings and your beauty routine.
