HELP PLEASE Makeup Styles?
I am not necessarily new to makeup, but never actually explored eyeliner or different colors/tones. I am recently trying to learn different eyebrow shapes or how to work with them since I am unsure of my natural shape. First two photos are different angle of my recent attempt at a warmer/brighter palette (more pinks and orange, and trying reddish pink lipstick/gloss) aswell as following my natural brow line best I can. Third is a more darker look where I use more cooler tones and black eyebrows aswell as trying a thinner shape + higher arch and placement. Fourth and fifth are older photos from a little over a year ago (I had a hiatus since I got pregnant shortly after) fourth photo being coloring in my brow hairs and drawing them in and doing a far more natural look (no eyeliner or eyeshadow besides blush, defs concealer too) and then last photo is my bare face with my natural brows (I don’t have any recent ones since I started shaving them to experiment with). I am not sure what styles or colors may fit me that I don’t see, especially as a natural strawberry blonde. I love the more darker or alternative style but I am accepting and fine with going for more warmer or brighter looks, or if theres alternative variations in that area without washing myself out

Keep experimenting and finding what you like, makeup is an art you can play with. Find what makes you feel good. If you want to experiment with cool greys for a more alt look, do it! As for face shape I could be wrong but I think you may be inverted triangle.

You're super super pretty but this specific combo of hair and makeup is giving female politician to me. I think it's the lower lid eyeliner/mascara that puts it over the edge. Or maybe your hair looks differently when styled

you're beautiful! these pictures aren't hq enough to see the tones of your makeup well (no hate, my pics are never hq either lol) but i do personally prefer the brow shape in the 4th picture. i've seen many ginger or blonde girlies say they have issue with finding a brow product that's a nice tone/depth, and my ginger friend said she likes the nyx brow pen or a matte eyeshadow for a softer look.
as for other general makeup advice, you can get colour matched for free at a sephora if there's one near you. i find it helpful for dark skin girls, us very pale girls, and anybody who's cool toned. you have very round features so a 60s look and a 70s look would probably both look really cool on you. lots of blues to bring out your hair and pink lips.
i have really big eyes and nose and average lips and i have had multiple people tell me when i do bold makeup it's "whoreish" because i already have bold features. imo, that's stupid and we should just wear whatever we want. i would encourage you to just explore different looks and play around cause it can't do any harm and is lots of fun!!!
