Makeup Challenge of the Week 2021/2022

[sister13]

[UPDATED WITH NEW CHALLENGES ~ MAY & JUNE] 💗💗💗  So, I could definitely use some makeup inspiration these days and maybe you could too. Several years ago, we used to have some weekly makeup challenge threads, so I’m bringing one back. It’s a great way to spark some creativity and maybe most importantly, a great way to shop your stash!

I started with a list of some challenges below, but also happy to edit/rearrange/consider other ideas along the way. I hope you will join me!  Feel free to post as many or as few times you’d like each week with photos of your looks. If you don’t like to post your face, feel free to do a flatlay of the products you used to do your look. Also, if you get behind or ahead, feel free to post pics whenever you have time.

Can’t wait to see all your looks! Have fun!

Updated the challenge (AGAIN) for the next few months!

Beautiful, @idanyd , eyes are so chic, that matte red lip is everything 😍😍😍

@idanyd, I’m so impressed with your all matte look. When I think of an all matte look, I get nervous about it looking flat but your look here is proving that wrong. Well done!

[makeitup305]

Super flattering look @idanyd 

[idanyd]

Thank you so much 😊!!! @makeitup305 

[lmaster]

It's so hard to go all matte!! But you did a fabulous job @idanyd 🥰

[idanyd]

Thank you so much 😊🥰!!! @lmaster   Yes cause I instinctively always want to reach for a glowy shade wether lip; blush; eyeshadow even bronzer 

[sister13]

Oh, what a great matte look! Beautiful @idanyd ! I kept being tempted by that Teddy Bare palette, it’s really cute/pretty!

[idanyd]

Thank you so much 😊🥰! @sister13   It’s so cute but very small I would recommend getting it during a sale

The product is very nice and shades work together so nicely!! But it’s the same price as a normal tin palette but it’s size is very small

One more newness look HUDA BEAUTY Rose Quartz Eyeshadow Palette and finally trying Fenty Beauty by Rihanna Gloss Bomb Cream Double Take Lip Set 2 x 0.3 oz/ 9 mL
