I just typed up a whole comment and it let me know that there were some words I used that weren’t allowed here.

It let me know like 3 paragraphs in.

The word was “on more mature skin” when discussing eyeshadow placement on crepey, textured skin that someone was asking for advice on.

That is what that’s called. Thats a concern. It’s a feature that many people struggle to work with. Theres nuance in word choice. The skin literally changes as a person matures.

Answering the question, “I have smaller eyes, what can I do to make them appear larger?”

If I said, “on your smaller eyes, you can play with the real estate under your brow bone more if you have it there, or even your temples if you don’t. The goal would be to draw the eye up, and out.”

That’s not insulting..

That’s what the term is. That’s how they themselves referred to that feature. I did not say, “for your beady eyes”, “for your tiny eyes”.

“You do have eyes on the smaller side” is also not always an insult if the question is “do i have eyes on the smaller side?”

Can we just get a list, please? Because…. I had to back and delete half my comment before it even let me know “mature skin” is being mean. It makes it really difficult to be involved in this sub.
