TLDR; I haven’t worn makeup in years due to being severely depressed from grief. I have a really important presentation and need to look phenomenal. But- I’ve forgotten how to do makeup!

I’d love some recommendations for YouTube videos or TikToks or channels you highly recommend that helped you learn how to do makeup that suits you? The ones that taught you about facial harmony, harsh makeup vs soft makeup, what suits you the most.. etc!

I bought a few basics (foundation, concealer, brushes, eyeshadow) and ‘manga’ lashes like the k-pop idols wear. I just don’t know where to start! I’m a huge fan of Asian-style makeup, but a lot of the tutorials aren’t translated so I can’t understand them 🥲

I’d really love some suggestions, advice or any help with this! 🌷💓 I want to look super beautiful!

  1. if you’re asian it helps to look on rednote and look for people who have similar features as you

    like what features they’re starting with and overall facial “harmony”

    i also learned great foundation techniques and concealer everything from rednote

  2. hi i enjoy watching tina yong on youtube! however with many influencers, they always make you feel like you need to buy and use what they’re using so keep that in mind! use what you have and try their techniques. here are two of her vids i enjoyed learning from:

    [everything a pro makeup artist taught me (2026 edition)](https://youtu.be/GqwwhnbeGLc?si=djWROv-tetATpXTs)

    and the best way to learn or re-learn makeup is simply just by practicing lots 🙂

  3. this_is_too_muchh on

    You have to look for tutorials on models who look as similar to you as possible. It’s very frustrating to not have the same makeup effect when you’ve got a different bone structure and skin tone as the mode.
