Mid-30s, caucasian woman here. I wear subtle eye shadow, concealer around my eyes, foundation on my face, black mascara, and lip gloss.
Sure it’s simple, but when I’m in my bathroom mirror, by face looks very applied with makeup.
A few feet away in a full-body, mirror, though, it looks like I haven’t spent a minute applying it.
What gives?
I have this problem because I have low lighting in my apartment. Even with my brightest bathroom light on, it doesn’t come close to natural light. So what looks like a good face of makeup indoors looks like absolutely nothing once I’m outside or somewhere with lots of natural light.
Ex stripper here, worked in a club with bad lighting. I feel you. I’d spend an hour+ in the girls room only to go out into the dark club and realize I look like an infant with mascara. 🤣
