I have so severe social anxiety. I don’t think i could deal with getting colors matched irl. I don’t really have anything right now and don’t have a clue how to buy foundation and contour stuff or anything. I’d prefer to buy online (aliexpress would be ideal considering shipping is usually quite high elsewhere). What can i do
Figure out your skin tone (deep/dark/medium/light/fair) and your undertone (warm/neutral/cool).
For complexion products, order a few shades that you think might match you. Swatch them on your face at home and take a picture, which you can then post on a variety of makeup subs for opinions on which shade matches you best. Once you have your match, send back the products that don’t work.
For eyeshadow/blush/contour etc., google which colors will flatter your skin tone and undertone and order whatever strikes your fancy (this category is a bit more flexible). Same with lip products, but make sure the lip color matches your undertone or they’ll look more noticeably weird.
Pretty much just do a ton of research before buying stuff, buy it and send back whatever doesn’t work.
