morbidfinwe:pardonmewhileipanic:itsdeepforhappypeople:tereshkova2001:buzzfeedlgbt:Bookmarking now and forever (x)This is a *really good* article that both handles anatomy concerns and presumes zero background makeup knowledge. Well done.It’s amazing that the cover photo is showing both older women and people of color, something that the media consistently ignores regarding the trans community.for my followersI’d like to add (to what they have in the article): do lips and eyes before foundation, especially if you have shaky hands and/or are new at this. That way, you can easily wipe away any mistakesAlso - liquid lipstick, while a pain to apply, is really good for long-lasting color and full, plump lips. If, like me, you tend to chew on your lips, then liquid lipstick’s your way to goThey mention contouring in here, but you can use it for a lot more than making your face look slimmer. You can also make noses look narrower, cheekbones look higher, jawlines less (or more) prominent, etc. Use multiple layers of mascara for really long lashes. Apply the mascara, let it dry, separate your lashes (with a fine-toothed hair comb, or better yet a comb meant specifically for lashes), then apply another coat. I’ve also seen people recommending putting baby powder on your lashes between coats (haven’t tried this myself). Apply mascara to both sides of your lashes for extra thickness. -- source link
