Oh yes, great topic to talk about haha! Makeup and skin care in general is superrrrr expensive smh! *-*
However a big Yay to wearing a moisturizer and a good sunscreen everyday (or really as regular as one can be) lol, the sun really be harsh out there (not me, I'm sweet and gentle 😛)!
Looking forward to some tips too. Thanks for starting this thread, Misty! ❤

One that doesn't leave that nasty white cast and isn't oily on the skin and causes acne breakouts and yes yes a good spf, that actually works haha!
Goodness now you've sparked some ideas, Mistyyyy xD that sounds like a good thread idea, also keeping the summers in mind haha!
I used to wear make up everyday until I had acne for several years I got pregnant n my acne stop my hormones change now I only wear moisturizer n sun screen some make up to cover my baggy bags!
@MistyMagic Actually yes, because I am working in the office and it is really important to stay fresh during the day. I am not a professional artist and that is why it is really important to develop myself in it, so https://thebeautylib.com/makeup-artist/ is an ideal option and really effective way to improve your skills effectively.
@MistyMagic
oml yes. I’m an angsty egirl lol I can’t go a day without eyeliner and blush. Also Idk why but makeup just makes me really happy :)
I don't, because my face is beautiful the way it is)
@MistyMagic
I don't wear makeup everyday. Personally I like my bare face the most ^-^
Wearing full makeup is quite troublesome especially when I need to attend occasion that could be hours. Thus, I prefer to do the most minimalist makeup with lessen items such as using cushion with high SPF + moisturizer ingredient, for eyes+lips+cheeks, I like to use multipurpose stick by NARS.
My makeup budgets always in range $30-$50 (per 6months to one year)
I prefer to spend more into skincare.
@MistyMagic I don't wear makeup every day, because I just don't feel like it.
I find a lot of cheap brands here. The quality isn't much different from the more expensive brands I've tried. Reading reviews online can also help to find good quality for low prices.
Reusing products helps to save money, they sell many different things under different labels but they work the same. You can use lipstick as blush and eyeshadow. Eyebrow pencil as eye pencils, or lip pencils... Eyeshadow as blush, contour... Using your fingers to apply the makeup instead of buying brushes. It works the same and is often more hygienic.
Also a tip is that the small brushes often offered with the palettes, with the "foam" tips give greater intensity to the eyeshadows than brushes.
Also coconut oil or any oil is good for moisturizing the lips. But not coconut oil on the face, it gives pimples.
THanks for sharing! How interesting about the coconut oil! Why is that do you think?

@MistyMagic I think maybe because it's too greasy and clogs the pores, but I'm really not sure ! I was just told not to lol ;)
I've probably worn makeup like 5 times in my life
@confusedRaven6140 thanks, how did it feel, was there an occasion?

Uh, I'm not a makeup person tbh. So it felt like a hassle 😂 But yeah, it was for stuff like graduations or other formal occasions.
I wear makeup a lot , affordable makeup is hard but going to shops and maybe not getting the branded stuff, that works just as well as the high end ones. You don’t need to spend loads to get good makeup
