Point makeup terrifies me. And baffles me. But generally simply terrifies, thus for the most role I don't fifty-fifty bother.
While I tin concord my ain when it comes to base of operations makeup (cushion foundations saved my life, or rather - cushion applicator puffs), the whole liquid eyeliner, eyeshadow, contouring, strobing, sculpting bullshit is non for me.
Trust me, I've tried. Multiple times. And I've failed. Multiple times. I simply don't expect practiced amongst a lot of state of war pigment on. Why? My confront is extremely asymmetric as well as it takes a lot of science to construct certain I don't cease upward looking similar a drunken clown. So much science that fifty-fifty around so-called "pro" makeup artists gave upward on me later a few attempts.
So now, I simply don't bother.
Yes, I do ain a few eyeshadows, all inward fairly neutral colors, that I hardly e'er use. Instead I receive got a staggering collection of color optic pencils, because they're tardily as well as don't involve makeup brushes.
I receive got two real neutral liquid highlighters, both non-sparkly, because I realized that shiny balls, piece pretty as well as all that, are non for me.
I receive got 3 undereye concealers, of which I exclusively utilization two anyway.
I receive got a stack of blushers, because I'm every bit white every bit a freshly painted wall as well as expect sick without a impact of color on my cheeks.
And I receive got a staggering collection of tinted lip balms as well as lip glosses. But non 1 lipstick*.
Why? See higher upward - asymmetric confront way crooked lips way lipstick emphasizes that way I expect similar shit.
I'm non going to tell you lot how many I have, because it's simply embarrassing.
Today I'll exhibit you lot v of them.

Jill Stuart is a Japanese cosmetic construct that is famous for its... well... packaging. It's over the superlative girly, it's over the superlative cute, as well as it makes your inner princess wet her pants amongst dizzy excitement.

And inward the illustration of Jill Stuart, they construct your inner princess thus real happy.
