I know that this isn’t a makeup subreddit. But I like everyone in this subreddit and wanted to ask you all instead 😅. I’m having lots of trouble with my makeup. I’m 23 and I started learning how to do makeup on my 20th birthday and I’m still terrible at it. Not as bad when I first started but it’s still not nice enough to go out in public with it so I don’t. I use a skin tint and it’s my EXACT shade. Im a cool undertone by the way. I would say the my skin shade is similar to Nia Long. Anyways, so I’ve tried using a concealer that is one shade lighter and I always look ridiculous. I would have concealer flashback without even taking a photo 😭. I’ve tried different types of concealer brands too. I ended up buying a concealer that’s my exact skin tone so I put that one first and use a little bit of the lighter concealer. Then I use the Saie beauty bronzer and blush. My sister always says that my makeup looks like I was standing in the sun for too long. I also use the Sephora microsmooth powder too if that helps. But I just don’t know what I’m doing. The black girls on makeup tutorials always use a REALLY light shade of concealer and look good, but if I use a shade lighter I look crazy. Plus the rest of my makeup looks extremely warm aswell.

Btw I wanna list the products I use but I don’t know if I’ll get in trouble cause not everything is from Sephora.
