    I also feel that whether you are a soft/muted or bright/clear season influences how bold you can wear makeup. Soft seasons look "off" in bold makeup.

      I think it also depends on the style of bold makeup and the sharpness/softness of your features. I am at the soft/curvy end (romantic type in the Kibbe system) and a deep autumn and I can pull off dramatic BLENDED looks like bold smokey eyes, or intense/dark shimmer all over with some soft blended crease - even for day makeup. I absolutely cannot wear anything too graphic or geometric, even cut creases look too sharp on me. Colour blocking is a big no-no as well.
      One more thing is the vibe certain colours have in relation with your features. Some women look very professional and elegant with bold red lips. But when I put red lips on, I am instantly transported to the sexy town. In this sense, I wear bold red lips but I must remember that it makes me look sensual, not professional, and it may clash with the occasion.

      I would say my color season strongly influences my makeup. But as mentioned above so do my features. I’m a deep winter but a soft natural. So my body looks WIDE and my face is middle of the road- not sharp or soft, just “natural”. Both of those conflict, soft naturals are most flattered with soft simple makeup, but my deep winter wants contrast. So usually prefer a mix of the two concepts.

    You just explained what I’ve known my entire adult life but couldn’t articulate. Bold eyes and bold lips both look wrong on me, like I’m a clown or a kid playing with grandma’s makeup, but common “wisdom” is that everyone can pull these looks off with the right application or color. Even makeup artists fail and admit I look better when I take the strong colors off. I finally get it and feel relieved that I should just stop trying. “Focus on cheeks and skin” is excellent advice, and the Renee example really helped. Thank you so much.

    Love this,
    Small note. Performers that are usually watched from a distance like an ice skater often wear bold make-up because otherwise you won't notice it from afar. As they say, if you want anything to be visible, it has to be exaggerated. It may or may have not been her preference from the start, but off the ice, she can tone it down since those photos are not designed for long distance viewing.

    • @stylerefinement

    I think it's a bit sad I can't pull off a heavier makeup look for when the event calls for it... (formal events, performances) It kinda looks like I didn't put too much effort into it... But with heavy eyes and dark lips I don't even look like myself, it just looks very off... Specially when taking pictures with people who have that full face of heavy makeup.
    And I am afraid of going to professional makeup artists who are just used to doing the same style of makeup because it suits most of their clients and that's what's considered "the norm" and paying a lot and just ending up with bad results because they don't understand my features, so I just rather do it by myself, even if I am not very good at makeup, at least I understand my eye shape
    At least thanks to your video I now understand and can 100% accept that I don't have to look good in heavy makeup. Not everyone does... Having a lighter color or certain features can really make you less versatile in makeup, but there's nothing much you can do, just accept it and use what suits you best or what you like best 🤷‍♀️

      That’s exactly the problem with a lot of MUAs - there’s a certain “formula” that they follow and it doesn’t work for everyone. My friend once got her makeup done professionally for a wedding and she said she felt like a whore after the makeup… 😅 not what you’d want to feel like after spending 💵!
      The video I’m releasing today is actually a comparison of how I used to wear my makeup the “generic” way vs how I wear it based on what suits me. Honestly once I figured out how to make it work I’m never going back to wearing that much makeup again - so don’t be sad about not being able to wear heavier makeup!

    Thank you for this video. Wish I saw it earlier. Just a few days ago we had photoshooting in work and professional makeup stylist was there to make us more appealing. I told her I don't like myself in heavy makeup and she was surprised (probably thought I don't like myself or I'm not confident enough). I wasn't able to explain why I don't like bold makeup and why I think I look better in more natural/nude styling. I'm similar case as Renée Zellweger, so now I know why's that. She still did the makeup quite bold (both the eyes and lips), so I really didn't like how I looked. In the end I had to remove a bit of shadow around eyes and the lipstick myself and then it was quite ok. But I was feeling very frustrated and was quite grumpy with the makeup stylist, so in the end I felt horrible about myself altogether the rest of the day. All that just because of bad makeup choice...

    As someone with monolids, I love how I look with super bold eyes.. but I have a lot of “empty space” on my face like you said about Anya Taylor-Joy in the other video so it balances out that way. I tend to think of it more as applying makeup “around” rather than “on” my eyes (keeping distance from the lash line/waterline) and I do it with strokes that echo and emphasize their natural geometry. I have a rather sharply defined ledge to my lower lid which is a great place to put color. There’s also the factor of Winter coloring (dark + high contrast) which helps carry off heavy black and bright colored eye makeup

We would pair up and practice on each other the look or technique that was taught, and I often found a lot of the looks jarring on me, not because the technique was bad but the looks themselves didn't work on my face and features!

It seems like I have a bigger mouth when in reality I don't. But I recently heard a former model say that the red mouth makes the mouth look smaller (I was surprised) but it's true!

    The crease disappears on Asian eyes even with those with double eyelids but as Douyin makeup has shown, actually a heavier smokey eye if done right, can enlarge the eyes. I think we are so used to seeing a heavy unblended hand for the smokey look that we instantly think it makes us Asian eyes look smaller. But follow any douyin smokey look and you can see eyeshadow, even dark eyeshadow can widen the overall eye size. It's gives the illusion of the eye encompassing a larger surface area. Now if you don't blend it and have a transition, it can all look squashed together rather than adding depth.
    Adding the illusion of depth can make Asian eyes look deeper which is actually what gives Caucasian eyes the illusion of appearing bigger. Even Caucasians with hooded eyes, appear to have bigger eyes because of how deep the eye socket appears. Which is definitely what darker eye makeup looks but most Asians , don't go for heavy eye makeup because it's very easy to look worse if you don't know how to apply. I'm no expert on blending either but I've seen what makeup artists that specializes in Asian eyes can do with the most taboo dark eyeshadows. It really is a skill.

    I think Sophia Loren is a good example of the way to wear bold eye makeup when you have that strongly upturned lower lid. She had a naturally dramatic face and very rounded lower lids but really owned that dramatic look. She emphasized the vertical upper lid line with liner and lashes drawn out pretty far to elongate her eyes; and when she was doing her signature strong eye look, she had the lower liner overdrawn to de-emphasize the round upturn of the lower lid. Even when she wore a more natural makeup style, she followed those proportions. I actually have the same shape of eye and don't really typically wear a lot of makeup but when I want to do something a little dressed up, I keep her techniques in mind.

    • @stylerefinement
      @stylerefinement  Год назад +3

      Thank you for sharing a great example! I think that even though Sophia Loren’s eye are upturned her eyes are so big and the angle of the outer corner more rounded as opposed to straight like Taylor Swift or Dita Vonteese so eye makeup is more forgiving. But I agree that Sophia Loren’s makeup style is great for opening up the outer corners more!

    I try to do neat eyeliner and I contour under the beginning part of my brow to add more depth to my lid space and highlight my inner corner and lower lash line to keep my eyes open and bright. I use wispy light false lashes and brown mascara on my bottom lashes as I still do have round eyes and enough white space to balance color.
    Its taken a while for me to find what works but this is an interesting way to confirm what I’ve always felt to be true. Hopefully I can guide my mom into makeup she likes because she still isn’t sure what works for her and wonders how I figured it out. She’s got a longer face than me but focusing on glowing skin and framed features I think is a good start :)

    Yeah, I prefer a neutral/softly smokey eye (no harsh lines or graphic liner) a nudish lip(gloss or tinted balm preferred) & a soft or sheer but colorful cheek. Skin can't be too matte or too shiny (accentuates texture) Eyes/cheeks are definitely the focus 👁 Overly bright or dark lip color looks wrong on me since my mouth is proportionally small (narrow) & my lips have a strong shape/pronounced cupid's bow. ( I like the shape just wish it was 15% larger lol) No red lippie for me 💋

    I'm curious what you think of people with very big eyelids plus lots of space between the eye and eyebrow. Whenever I've tried to follow bold make-up looks, of different kinds, the colours and details that looked lovely and balanced on the moderate eyelid became way too big and too much on mine. Everything shows too much basically, so I end up only wearing sheer or natural-ish colours.

    • @stylerefinement
      @stylerefinement  Год назад +1

      Hmm interesting point! In my experience the more eyelid room the better the makeup shows and the more ability you have to wear bolder styles because of that, but I can also see how it might appear overwhelming depending on your preference!

    I thought I couldn't wear bold makeup in general, but now that i think about it maybe it's just the eyes that can't handle it, because even though they're fairly big, they're also pretty hooded and you don't see much more than eyeliner when my eyes are open. I once had my makeup done by a professional for my friend's wedding, and it make me look 20 years older and kind of like a prostitute somehow. I ended up having to do my own makeup as the makeup artist clearly didn't know how to adapt the makeup to the person.
    I think it's also your colouring - my skin is very white, my hair is red, and my eyelashes and eyebrows are white-blonde. Even black mascara or anything on the eyebrows darker than the lightest dusting of Anastasia Dip Brow in Caramel makes me look like I'm on the stage.

      My friend who got her makeup done by a MUA for a wedding also said the same thing about the finished look making her look like a prostitute 😅 I noticed at makeup school, they teach you a "formula" that supposedly works on everyone, but I remember when we were practicing on each other I always ended up looking quite jarring!

  • @dreamscape405

    I can't wear bold eyes or lips either because I've got dark circles plus eye bags, so anything smoky just accentuates that. I keep my eyeshadow pretty light, but wear brown or gray on my lower waterline only. So my eyeshadow is kept on top, and the "dark" is kept minimal. My lip shape is very distinct too, and bright, bold colors are too overpowering. Plus my season is Light Summer, so bold, or dark colors aren't that flattering. However, sometimes on occasion, I still wear it when I'm feeling like my inner child wants to play.

    Do you have any eye makeup tips for an olive with tiny almond eyes, but tons of eyelid real estate? I have a large jaw and cheekbones so i try to draw more attention to my eyes but i usually make them look smaller, even if i just do winged eyeliner. So far, giant glasses are all i can do to balance my face 😅

    • @stylerefinement
      @stylerefinement  Год назад +2

      Hi! It really depends on the actual shape of your eyes but generally I find that if you have eyes are vertically narrow, using bold eyeliners can actually make your eyes look smaller! Since you have a lot of eyelid real estate I would take advantage of that and spread a softer colour widely, and also use eyeshadow on the bottom to vertically widen your eyes. Using a length-focused mascara (rather than volume-focused) should also help with adding vertical width. Hope that helps! :)

    Zellweger has ethnic connections to the Finnish Sami people who do often have monolids. There are quite a few white people in the North and East of Europe who have monolids - ethnicity after all is not a cookie cutter, people have been mixing for centuries, even more so in Europe.
    I don’t have monolids, but I have deep set eyes. I think you are very on point in your analysis. When wearing dark eye makeup or fake lashes, I noticed that I look like a panda. Now, I go for the cat flick only at the outermost corner - it makes for an elegant look and opens up the eye but it doesn’t overwhelm my features.

    Renée Zellwegger has the typical Germanic face, a type that doesn't need heavy makeup; in fact, these types should use the most natural face in contrast to the rosy cheeks (imitates peasant women). Those who have defined features, like me, can and should use a more marked make-up in the right measure and less blush, in this case.
