So the only makeup I do is eyeliner and mascara, sometimes lipstick & highlighter. However, I’ve been wanting to get into more colourful eye looks so I’ve gotten some eye shadows. My problem is that each time I try to wear them, I feel like it looks awkward since I don’t have a full face on. Is it just me being paranoid and not used to seeing myself with more makeup or is this a real thing?
More info: my skin is skin is clear and freckled, not overly greasy or overly dry. I’d say I have good skin, but definitely not airbrushed perfect skin which is why I think the eye looks look weird.
From an aesthetic point of view, wearing a full base is like having a blank canvas to work on, so colorful eye looks tend to look better with a full face. There’s also a certain completeness when you do all the steps.
