I was reading on Twitter and a make up artist posted that the new make up trend would be “Tonal Glam.” And from what I’ve read it essentially means highlighting the different best features on a person and using various tones to bring them out.

What do you guys think?

    Yes I’m Indian grew up in the UK and why did I let my friends paint teen me’s eyelids blue and give me frosty pink lips 😭😭 I showed mum some of my secret night out photos (once I was safely in my 30s lol) and she was alarmed and finally acknowledged she should have let me use her makeup, she didn’t know she was setting me up for that level of failure hahaha.

      So much woe being an Indian teen in the UK & trying to do makeup. So many foundation disasters as we just didn’t exist in the shade range unless you wanted to be orange. So much awful eyeshadow slapped on with generic Indian dark under eyes making it look even worse as there’s no concept of under eye concealing.

      I’m Indian too, but in the US, and I had the same terrible photos I’d love to burn. Oh and the thin eyebrow trend…I am TERRIFIED of this being a thing for everyone because a lot of us don’t look right when they’re artificially thinned out. But I’ve been seeing a lot of comments that thin brows make people younger. I think that’s only true because rn only young people are trying to thin their brows; us older people are trying to either embrace their fullness or grow them back.
