Hannah Phillips+FollowSome Things Leave. Some Things Stay.They discontinued my favorite powder. Again. Suqqu’s foundation? Been using it since the black cap days. I’ve cheated with others—Estée Lauder Platinum, Guerlain Gold—but I always circle back. The Armani powder I loved is gone. The MAC gel liners I hoard, barely touch. TF 35 is moody, Pillow Talk is sweet. NARS lids break, Clinique blushes last. At 35+, I care less about color and more about structure. Some products are for beauty. Some, for becoming. #beauty #makeup #longtermism100Share
Evonne+FollowWrong Shade, Right RoutineI keep using this blush that never really suited me. Bought it on impulse years ago—too orange, too loud. It sat in the back of my drawer forever, until one day I just… started wearing it to work. Not because it looked good. But because it made me feel like I showed up. I’m not prettier with it. Just more awake. Sometimes that’s enough. #beauty #makeup #moodshift82Share
Evonne+FollowI stole my eye look from my blushOne blush. Two brushes. No palette. I sweep it from lash line to brow bone—just like eyeshadow but lazier。 The trick? Pick a blush deep enough to give depth。Too pale = no structure，just ash。 Also: blending is religion。I’d rather skip mascara than skip blending。 #beauty #makeup #lazygenius121Share
slittle+FollowWide-set brows fixed my crowded faceMy features are all squished in the center. Every selfie looked tense. Then I started spacing things out. Shaved the brow gap wider. Dragged brow tails to the temples. Packed shimmer on my inner lids like my life depended on it. No nose contour. I also ditched “center-heavy” lashes—now only fox-style or baby curl. The goal? Fake some distance. Let the face breathe. #beauty #makeup #facefixes30Share
slittle+FollowThe “Y Brow” That Saved My FaceI have a wide face—typical East Asian bone structure. For years, I followed local makeup videos, but none of them helped. Then I saw how French-Asian girls shaped their brows. Instead of flat brows that made my face look even wider, they followed a subtle upward “Y” shape—think Zhang Ziyi, not a soft peony, but a sharp bamboo leaf. Now I pluck under natural side light and always check the angle from above. If the brow forms a Y, I’m done. #beauty #makeup #sharpnotsoft435Share
Hannah Phillips+FollowMy Eyebrows Were My First TestI didn’t start with full face makeup. Just brows. Four days of drawing them on paper, then on my face—finding where they start, peak, and end. That was it. Just getting them to exist. Then I realized powder doesn’t stick on my skin. I have Sahara-dry cheeks. So I dropped every cream and chose only pencils. Makeup wasn’t about copying steps anymore. It became “what works on me.” Now I skip anything that doesn’t. #beauty #makeup #onmyownterms150Share
Elizabeth Phillips+FollowMy Go-To Notes for a Natural Western Nude LookSkin stays light and fresh—foundation replaces highlighter to shape instead of shine. Blush goes W-shaped on the cheeks or just under the cheekbone with a muted coral or brown (almost like contour). Liquid textures work best. Eyes: one wash over the lid for depth, soft under-eye shadow for puffiness. Tight brown liner under the eye + a clean cat flick. Use real strip lashes for both top and bottom—no half attempts. No aegyo sal. Keep center of the face clean and tight. Match blush, shadow, and lips. Freckles or faux moles finish it off. #beauty #makeup #nudelook1655Share
kyleleon+FollowMakeup Tips That Actually Work for Yellow-Toned SkinYellow-toned skin isn’t dull—it’s radiant when treated right. The key isn’t trying to look pale, but balancing warmth. Skip the bright pinks. Use gold-toned highlighter for glow, not shimmer. Avoid over-whitening with cool foundations—go for base correctors (light blue or lavender) to neutralize yellow, but avoid them if your skin runs deep golden (they turn green). Lip shades? Terracotta, rosewood, brick. Blush? Warm beige or bronze tones with a glow. Once I stopped fighting my undertone, everything looked better. #beauty #makeup #yellowundertone150Share
Hannah Phillips+FollowSoft ≠ Clean. Harmony ≠ Same Color.I used to think “soft makeup” meant looking clean. But now I realize—they’re not the same. Some looks use soft colors but blur the features so much, everything feels hazy. Others use bold shades but sculpt the face clearly. It’s not about intensity—it’s about clarity. And using all the same shade (like matching blush, lip, shadow exactly) doesn’t equal harmony. That just makes the face look flat. What actually works: layering, slight contrasts, and choosing which part to define. Not everything needs to blend into everything. #beauty #makeup #colordepth40Share
slittle+FollowMy Eyebrows Look Wild On PurposeSaw this Korean creator (rakuz.beauty) and copied her face. Didn’t even try to be subtle. Just brushed up my brows, skipped sharp lines, and dabbed on some dusty rose blush like I was slightly embarrassed about something. It’s all brown tones—like, all of it. Eyes, lips, cheeks. But somehow it doesn’t look boring, just soft and expensive. Still bad at the lash curl part though. Every time I try, I think, “What would her eyelashes do?” #beauty #makeup #softgirlstudy20Share
