“Makeup Logic” Isn’t One-Size-Fits-All

Let’s cut through the fluff: the “ultimate makeup logic” some people preach? Often just overcomplicated noise. At its core, makeup is simple: prep → base → set → color. That’s it. The rest? It’s a mix of classic techniques and knowing your own face. You don’t need to decode some mythical “underlying logic” to contour your cheekbones—you just need to see them. I’ve seen too many artists try to force makeup into an art theory box—comparing face makeup to painting a canvas. But makeup isn’t a painting. You’re not expressing colors to an audience; you’re facing the world as yourself. Color theory matters, sure—but so do your features, personality, and vibe. Pro MUA or beginner, the real goal is the same: understand your face, not memorize someone else’s rules. Makeup isn’t about mastering tricks—it’s about making choices that feel like you. Because the most flattering makeup? Always starts with self-awareness, not a tutorial script. #makeup #beauty#selfawareglam
