I remember I loved this picture when I took it, and I was so happy with my appearance. This is about 6 months ago. A few weeks ago I took a new picture (to make sure my eyebrows were alike haha) and I compare the two pictures and was really bummed to be honest.. Now I have a different hair color and I tend to keep it that way (the second pic). So my question is, do you guys have some makeup tips for me? I always contour to make my face appear slimmer, and I always try to make my eyes look brighter&bigger.. Any tips and tricks will help, as I really feel like crap these days. Thanks you in advance :)

I mean the other way. My current hair color is the blonde hair, and it is the blonde hair picture I dislike.. Haha.

Your contour is really great but it does look a bit extreme. Try bringing it to where your eye ends to make it more subtle and if you like it, keep doing it. If it's your eyes you want to bring attention to, maybe try using a slightly bolder neutral palette and amuse lippie because the first thing I noticed was the pink lipstick. I just think that since you're doing so much to the face it's drawing more attention to the lower half of it rather than your eyes.

I love how your brows are in the first picture, I feel as though they framed your face very nicely :) I think if you wanted to change things up darker lip colours would look bomb on you, like dark purples, plums, burgundy colours :)

Also, It might just be me but your lips look a lot fuller in the second picture, do you overdraw them?

Thanks girls :) I often get comments on my heavy makeup by my boyfriend, I'm just caught up in this bad makeup routine now.. Actually, in the 1st pic I also love my eyebrows, but when you see them in real they're like super duper thin. I'll post a second pic. I hate that I don't remember what foundation and eye makeup I was using back then..
Shaye: no, I actually filled my lips a couple of months ago, I never use lip liner :)

I think you look better with darker hair also your skin looks a lot better in picture one it looks quite orange in the second one

Both pictures are gorgeous! I don't think you're make up looks bad in either. I am more of a naturals fan so of course I like the natural look. However, in a blonde. So I like blonde hair. So both pictures are perfect!

You're beautiful but I agree with Charlotte.

Guess I'm the odd ball out because I much prefer everything in the second picture. Love the blonde hair on you and thicker brows lol.

Try going back to looking more natural since it obviously worked better for you. I think the problem is the lips because it is very noticeable, maybe there are some make up techniques you could look up to make them look more natural. Also darker hair suited you better.

I think you're eyebrows are great but you might need a lighter shade since your hair is lighter, it makes your brows look dark as for the lips I love it! & honestly I like the pic without the contour, you don't need it you have a slim nicely structured face

Hair and brows play a huge part into a persons look and it dosent matter if you get the same makeup fown on your face like in the firat pic you will never look the same cuz your hair and brows are different, personaly I think dark haor suiys you better, I had dark ash blond hair back in the day and it was all bad, never again, blond hair color on certain people can age you and make you look tired, I was I think 18 when I had bloned hair and it litterly made me look like I was 34.

I prefer the first pic, although you look beautiful in both! I think you look a bit orangey in the second pic - I think it might be because your hair is light so you seem darker? I don't know, but I like the dark hair on you definitely. I don't mind your contour though, I think it looks good, and I like your brows a lot better thicker like in the second pic. Just my opinion :) but I do think you should really consider going back to darker hair!

Contouring in the first picture, brow fullness in the second. I'd just say make the transition smoother, something I still even have issues with.
