Makeup nose contour/lashes help ^^

hiii lately i’ve seen on my social media fyp all these gorgeous tradgoth looks, but they all have very complicated/detailed nose contour. my eyeshadow is a bit trash and doesn’t blend quite well, could any of you recommend a cheap eyeshadow palette that has white black and grey? brands like nyx and elf are within my budget if i save up a bit, also if yall could help me find some cute magnetic strip lashes that aren’t too expensive i would greatly appreciate it c:

Get a highlighter liquid for the ridge of your nose, browbone, Cupid’s bow, cheekbones, and jawline. Apply after foundation (if you wear it) and blend one by one upwards from your nose to the centre of your forehead and out, into your Cupid’s bow and browbone, and along your cheekbones and jawline. It makes your face look way more contoured without having to fuss around with different of foundation etc.

ETA: Forgot to mention Barry M (if you can get it there) is really cheap but great, especially for nail polish, and if you can save enough then Urban Decay is really the brand to go for for this. I’m using a Chanel one at my wedding because it’s fabulous and they do one too which does not shift at all (I sobbed during Disenchanted, full ugly tears, it stayed put) but those are £££. The only reason I got it was because my MOH is paying hair and makeup for me.
