The Best Makeup Formula for Your Skin Type
For years I’ve been watching YouTube makeup tutorials to learn different ways to do my makeup, and I’d like to think that I’ve mastered it, but one thing still gets me; is the type of makeup I use right for my skin type? I’ve never figured it out, and I like to think I’ve tried everything. So this is not only for me to help you out, but for my own benefit as well. Let’s take a makeup journey together!
This article gives a general ides of what direction you should go in, but it didn’t have enough information in it for me to feel satisfied.

While I’m keeping all of this information in mind, and will most likely practice with it, I am always keeping my eye out for the best advice, and will update you if I find anything new and mind-blowing!
