That coat is awesome! And I just go to Sephora to find ppl to talk makeup with, and they have a tool that tells you exactly what shade of foundation to get if you want to try that type of makeup. I like tinted moisturizer and a tiny bit of bronzer 💜
What is Sephora? I find an online shop for makeup with that name but could not see the tool on my quick check. I have definitely a closer look and more thorough search later.
The more I read about makeup the more convinced I am that you need a diploma to tell all these things apart :X
I learned slowly over the course of years, it's ok! Sephora has an online shop, but I was hoping you could get to a store in person bc the staff give out free makeovers and will literally spend a few hours talking shop if they're bored. Oh, also I can recommend ipsy. It was like $10/month when I had it, but might be more now bc well, fkn everything is more... anyways, it's fun to look forward to and will introduce you to stuff slowly so you have time to look everything up and add it to your skillset
Ah that makes sense, thank you. We have a good store in town but I am not quite ready yet to talk with people in the outside world. Will give it a second or more to dwell on it :D
