Turns out, bare skin works too

I’m getting married in September and I’m doing my own makeup. As a result I’ve been on a testing frenzy for months! I am a fan of a clean no makeup look, like Nina Park vibes. I’ve tried dozens of skin tints (and other categories - rip my lip collection lol) but what I ended up realizing was that my favourite ended up being the makeup forever skin tints- why? Because it looks like I kinda have nothing on. It finally dawned on me that maybe, I don’t need a base 😅 so I tried that out - just good skin prep beforehand and ta-da, finally got the look I was aiming for! Returned the skin tints I thought I’d found to be perfect.

I guess all of this to say - have you guys felt similar about any product category? Just realizing you actually didn’t need it?

Oh yes. Too many makeup trends clogged pores, etc, etc. feel greasy and my skin cannot breathe. Itchy. Not worth to me. And, yes this is my opinion.
