Update posts good bronzer for asian skin

From the soot-rimmed eyes of ancient Egyptians to the lead paint used by the Elizabethans, the pursuit of beauty through cosmetics has a long history. However, this experimentation doesn’t always yield favorable results. The subreddit ‘Bad MakeUp Artists’ serves as an excellent showcase for these mishaps.

Since its inception in 2017, this online community has grown to 568K members who actively share images of both everyday individuals and celebrities sporting glaringly obvious fake lashes, overly sculpted brows, and mismatched foundation shades.

Keep scrolling to explore the collection, and be sure to check out our conversation with British beauty content creator Jane Cunningham, interspersed among the photos.

Oh Dear

Makeup expert Jane Cunningham, known on Instagram as @britbeautyblog, emphasizes that mastering the basics of makeup isn’t as difficult as it seems. “Makeup textures and formulas have come a long way so they’re easier than ever to use,” she shared with Bored Panda. “There’s a big difference between being decent at makeup and excellent at makeup, but most of us can scrape by with adaptable products such as lip and cheek crayons.”

She also notes the rising popularity of sheer looks and a “less is more” philosophy, which is perfect for beginners. “A good example would be that if you’re not confident applying foundation, try a tinted moisturizer instead — there’s less pigment and far more leeway for good blending and a glowy finish.”

Cunningham asserts that the key distinction between experts and amateurs lies in the process. “Pros are taught in a very particular and meticulous way that gives them a foundation of knowledge on which to expand. Once you understand skin tones, textures, and effects, you can experiment with layering and enhancing,” she elaborated.

She provides an example: “A good example might be that it takes most of us a couple of moments to apply eyeshadow or lipstick, but a pro can be there for a long time working with the colors to get them absolutely perfect.”

“A happy amateur enjoys applying the product, enjoys the finished result but isn’t looking at their work with an MUA eye, so mostly won’t see that the results aren’t technically perfect. Which is fine!” Cunningham explained.

She also highlighted the importance of versatility: “A huge difference between amateur and pro is that MUAs can create perfect makeup on anyone; amateurs can often only create looks on themselves.”

When it comes to mistakes, Jane Cunningham shares a perspective akin to that of the late Bob Ross. “It’s still quite easy to go wrong with foundation tones, but it’s hard to say what’s a mistake and what’s a happy accident,” she noted.

Cunningham emphasized the evolving nature of makeup styles: “Makeup looks have never been so unregimented. Personally, I don’t love huge lashes or a lot of highlighter, but that’s only my preference. If it’s making you happy, it’s not wrong!”

“The only ‘wrongs’ I think can be ignoring hygiene around application, or as a pro, not following your client’s wishes and going with what you think is best,” Cunningham stated.

She added, “I’ve seen a couple of practice bridal looks recently that really didn’t hit the brief, and I’ve ended up doing the makeup myself on the day for one of them.”

If you’re just starting out, it can be beneficial to focus on certain skills that will significantly enhance your look.

Cunningham emphasizes the importance of blending: “If all your layers (primer, base, blush, bronzer, highlighter) are seamlessly blended, then it just looks effortless. If you can pick up anything from online tutorials, focus on blending,” she advised. “After that, it’s easier not to go wrong.”

She also mentions liquid liner: “Oh, and liquid liner! [Although] I’ve never mastered it and fully believe that some people are never meant to make it happen (i.e. me!),” the beauty content creator confessed.
