What's your make up routine?

[Apulu_backagain]

So for those who do make up, irrespective of your gender, what routine do you follow? I'm tryna level up my game and some inspiration could help.

I only use Kohl, a lipstick, compact powder and occasionally the shimer compact.

I use the lipstick as my blush and eye shadow and all. Foundation or concealer feels way too overwhelming for me because my nose and the area under my lower lip (prone to white heads) sweats very easily. And I love this shimmer compact

I use the lightest shade on the top as highlighter on the tip of my nose and cheeks and apply a little of the the darkest pink shade or the pink shade above it on my cheeks and nose with my finger. If I'm feeling good then I dab some of the pink shade of my choice over my lipstick on lips and though it makes it dry and matte, it looks really good. I do the shimmer compact thing only in special occasion.

moisturizer & primer, foundation or just concealer (depends on the day), eyebrow mascara or/and eyebrow powder, mascara, maybe nude eyeshadow, sun powder on my nose to contour, sometimes blush, lip liner & lipstick or tinted lipbalm, plumping gloss on top, setting powder or/and setting spray

if you want specifics, i apply my skincare 15m before makeup. I use silicone based primer only on the parts of my face with larger pores (my t zones basically). sometimes i'll dust a bit of matifying powder to prevent shine on my t zones. i'll wait until it's dry, then i put foundation either all over my face or only the parts that need coverage with a beauty blender. sometimes if i'm in a hurry or lazy i'll just use concealer with my fingers on the parts that need coverage. i'll put a little of eyebrow mascara to darken my eyebrows. sometimes i'll use powder as well to fill them up and shape them better. i'll put mascara on both top and bottom lashes, with a lot more on top. i'll use a nude eyeshadow on my lids and in the inner eye corners because it looks more neat, if i'm not in a hurry. i'll then wait a bit then put setting powder over my face with a big kabuki brush. then i'll apply a little powder blush if i want with a blush brush at times, and i'll use a countouring brush to dust a bit of sun powder over my nose to make it slighty tinier. i'll overline my lips mainly at the top center and the bottom area besides near corners to enhance them, i'll put some color and then i'll often use plumping gloss on the bottom lip. ill then lock it all in with hydrating setting spray.

[Apulu_backagain]

YOU DONT EVEN DO SKIN CAREE?

[Still-alive]

Nahhh at most i might apply sunscreen lol

[AI Opinion]

Love your routine, it’s already creative and smart 😍 Using lipstick as blush and shadow is such a pro move.

Mine on a normal day: sunscreen, light tinted moisturizer, a touch of concealer only where needed, clear brow gel, brown eyeliner smudged softly, mascara, cream blush, subtle highlighter on cheekbones and nose, then tinted lip balm or nudish lipstick.

For sweaty zones, I tap a tiny bit of loose powder only around the nose and chin and avoid heavy layers.

The first two steps are literally skin care routine.

Depends if I want a complete war mask with primer, powder, three eyeshadow tones, lipstick, mascara, glitter etc. Or just 5 min makeup with a little bit color around and my eyes and

You know more than me lol. I use lip gloss and sometimes mascara.

I don't wear. I never needed. Saves lot of water. Want to go to bed without removing my face paint.
