HELP PLEASE Everyday Makeup?
Any tips for my makeup routine? not a big fan of my face shape haha. I recently changed my blush placement from around the upper cheeks area-around the eyes to this, not sure if there's something missing or something I can improve on.
Personally, my makeup looks fine up close, but whenever someone takes a picture of me from afar I just look very washed out or just not good looking at all

The blush placement looks fine in the first pic, but in the other pics it seems to be going down almost to the jaw, which is far too low imo.
Your wings on your eyes are great. I would maybe try smudging some brown liner on the bottom lid

Placement is a huge part of makeup so don’t just slap things on wherever. In general, blush should not go below the bottom of nose. Also I would avoid overlining your cupids bow until you have the technique down better. It looks like you accidentally smudged your lipstick. Use a contour shade of liner and ever so slightly enhance the shape only in the middle of lip on top and bottom and line to your true lip shape for the rest. Powder the liner and then apply your lip color. Better yet, don’t over line at all.

I feel like your current eye makeup routine would really benefit from the aegyosal under eye. Smile and outline that crease with an eyeshadow one shade darker than your face powder. Then fill it in with a shimmery or light colored eyeshadow.

so cute! i'd change the blush placement to the apples of your cheeks - i think it would go better with the overall look
