I am morbidly obese. I have tried losing weight for over 20 years, and the doctors just say “eat less, excercise more”. I’m 43 that has occured to me, thanks. No matter how hard I work at it, I lose 20 lbs, and then start gaining it back even if nothing has changed. Or even if I reduce my calorie intake again. Or increase my exercise. Its too the point that whenever I look in the mirror I just see a ft cw of a person. I never really learned to do makeup when I was younger, and Idk how to really learn now. Ive been told by friends to just watch some YouTube videos & experiment. When I do, I just see a ft cw with make-up on. Somethings are okay look wise, somethings are, “Oh dear, that’s a no”, but nothing is ever, “hey, I like this”. How do I figure out something that works for me?

(And yes, I know I need therepy- working on it- just trying to work on things I can control right now.).

    Lizzo is what one would call “morbidly obese” and her face is gorgeous and, to apporopriate from gay culture “beat for the gawdz”

    Maybe watch YouTube videos on how contouring and highlighting can give you a more angular look. I’d see if lizzos MUA has a YouTube channel. I think lizzo may have done her own makeup for a vogue YouTube feature.
