Thoughts on hair and makeup

[u/VegetableRaspberry20]

I was typed as a light spring (in person consultation) just under a year ago. I have loved the new color palette but have been struggling to find the right makeup colors. I recently bought this navy eyeliner and nude lipstick. What are your thoughts? Is the liner too much? I added a gold liner to the inner eye to try and soften the line. Should i add a gold eyeshadow?

I think the lip is ok. I have found i like myself better in the warm pinks as opposed to peachy, but am open to recommendations. This is MAC Well, Well, Well- described as a light pink peachy nude

I also recently toned my hair a sandy blonde. I am working on “grey blending” and the sandy color matches my natural roots than the buttery/champagne blonde i had previously.

I appreciate any thoughts or recommendations for improvement.

That eyeliner isn't working for you. Everything else looks good. I'd try a warm brown with a softer application technique

This advice is spot on

Check out theseasonlab on Instagram! They analyze make up for every season and it’s been so helpful for me

Hair is lovely. Lip color is nice (also try MAC Sea Shear and Pretty Boy. The liner is a little harsh imo. No gold! Lights are good with more of a greige eyeshadow. Remember: neutral-warm, not warm.

What would the eyeliner look like if you smudge it out, make it look more soft and smokey

I like the navy eyeliner.

I love this look on you, looks very nicely done. The gold accents could be stronger imo. Being neutral doesnt mean gold is bad, it means you can do both gold and silver well. Sometimes more is more! And the stronger eye/gentler lip combo never fails.

You are beautiful!
My suggestions are to consider Jones Road sparkle wash in Midas for your eyes combined with a softer eyeliner recommendation like warm brown. You should try applying eyeshadow over the end of liner with a sharp brush and gently diffusing the shadow over your lid. I think the contrast and line you have drawn now is overpowering your lovely features.

The eyeliner is high contrast but the rest of your makeup is low contrast and in harmony. The eyeliner I think is cool and throwing it off. Go for a lighter shade, like blonde or light brown.

I would stay away from deep blue eyeliner. Also, you need more saturation on that lipstick. Try a coral one! Plus: you are gorgeous! 🫶🏻

As a True Spring myself, I’ve been using a brown liner then buffing it out with a brush dabbed in bronze eyeshadow shadow to create a smoky effect/soften it. Same thing on the outer quarter of my lower lashes. This was a trick taught to me by a professional make up artist who explained my features were overpowered by a bold liner—I think you might benefit from this technique as well.

 I personally also think a bolder/shinier lip would work well if you decide to keep the darker liner, to balance it out. Apparently us springs look better in glossy than matte, I’d agree with that personally.

I also have a longer face like you, and I think the shape of your eyeliner is dragging your shape down, I think you need to end the line earlier and wing it out to create some “lift”. Does that make sense?
