The girls that get it, get it: I’m 31, I’ve bought every makeup trend since 2015, and I still can’t figure out how to look like a human being in the mirror. My skin is light medium with olive undertones, but I’m like a color wheel in a blender—can’t decide if I’m neutral or warm. And honestly, I’m tired of feeling like a makeup experiment. You know what I mean? Like, I’m trying to do my face but it looks like a raccoon got into my skincare routine.
So, here’s the real talk: if you’re in the same boat, you’re not alone. I’ve been dying to get that sun-kissed blush look but living in Finland means my face is basically a snow globe. No sun, no warmth, just me trying to fake it with a blush that looks like I’ve been sitting in a sauna. And don’t even get me started on eyeliner. I’ve tried every trick in the book—siren eyes, big-eye liner, you name it—but my eyes look like they’re wearing a raccoon mask. Maybe I’m just not cut out for drama?
Let’s talk products because I’m a total product hoarder. I’m using Lumene CC cream, Huda’s pink pomelo corrector, Lancome’s Buff shade, and that Rhode blush in freckle. But here’s the thing: I’m not a powder person in winter. It dries my face like a desert. So I’m stuck with creams and liquids, which is fine—but I’m still stuck in a makeup rut.
KEY POINTS: – Stick to warm tones for a natural glow, especially if you’re olive-toned. Think peachy blush and bronze that blends into your skin, not highlights. – Skip the eyeliner drama. Go for a soft, smudged liner or skip it entirely. Your eyes don’t need to be a runway show. – Cream products are your winter BFFs. Powder? Not here.
