After 28, I Finally Know What Makeup’s Worth It

By 28, I’ve bought more makeup than I’d like to admit—and I finally get it. Most everyday looks fall into two camps: peachy or pink. Build around those tones and you’re already ahead. 💄 Base makeup? Go high-end. Foundations and sunscreens are science. Don’t skimp if you want coverage that lasts. Dry skin: try MUFE or NARS Light Reflecting. Oily skin? MAC or Shu Uemura. Setting sprays: UD All Nighter. Done. ✨ Eyeshadow? Just get two solid palettes—a soft pink and a brown-toned one. Pat McGrath and TF work. Japanese brands like Lunasol or Suqqu if you want sheer and elegant. 😅 Skip the viral palettes unless you’re a beauty creator. Real people don’t close their eyes for the camera. 🖌 Invest in good brushes—natural bristles for blush and eyeshadow change everything. Most of all: aesthetics > technique > product. And if you can, get a makeup artist to teach you. It’s worth it. #beauty #makeup #GrownUpGlam
