Rachel Martin+FollowWhy Your Makeup Still Doesn’t Slay (Yet)Real talk: Good makeup isn’t about copying influencers. It’s: Style → Skill → Stuff. In that order. You love your fave celeb’s winged liner, bold lip, and lifted brows—but if you’ve got a long diamond-shaped face, and she’s soft round with baby cheeks, you’re not gonna get the same effect. And that’s okay! Here’s what to fix: Stop chasing products. Start learning what flatters your features. A flawless “copycat beat” on the wrong face just highlights the wrong things. Harsh but true. 👉 Pro tip? Book a $100+ makeup session with an artist whose vibe you love (not wedding glam, pls). Watch closely, record it, ask questions. Then recreate it. Over and over. If you’re broke (hi, student life), watch pro tutorials for your face shape—not filtered TikToks. ✨ And remember: You don’t need 72 products. Just a smart handful that work hard for you. Long game > one-time slay. That’s the glow-up nobody tells you about. #beauty #makeup #makeupmistakes00Share
