Going off what youโ€™ve done so far here it seems you want a bit of a sharper look (correct me if Iโ€™m wrong) so embracing your cupids bow instead of drawing over it might give you a more sharp look. I like to especially spike the tips of my cupids bow cause I love looking sharp and spikey. Iโ€™ve also found with contouring the forehead donโ€™t go fully across and also dabble it lightly at the temples right in your hairline if you donโ€™t wanna make everything scrunch inward. So easy to mess up with blac

Ok perf! I find it helpful to draw out a plan for mappings sake to make things seem less crowded or the terrible deal of getting your base right then screwing up on your shapes ๐Ÿ˜ญ. Depending on the look youโ€™re going for (e.i. Masc, fem, sharp, soft) you wanna change shapes and placement. Masculine looks are sharper and pull down more than up (heavy under eye, contouring below the cheek bone instead of above) feminine is more soft rounded shapes going up etc etc

Also if youโ€™re wanting to keep your brows and bring them in I lightly take a brush with a small amount of black on it across the hairs and not really touching my skin to softly bring the brows back without making them look like theyโ€™re 2016 block brows ๐Ÿ˜ญ. Makeup is something Iโ€™m super into so I love shoving my information onto people :)

no that was perfect! thank you so much! im def gonna screen shot this for later! also the cupids bow tip actually reminded me of my first try around! i do want to do that more too but i also have this pouty lip thing going on inspired by Cherry (studio killers) bc the ode to the bouncer video shaped me when i was a kid ๐Ÿ’€ her design is so iconic it lives with me forever lolol

Omg I was so into studio killers as a kid too! You might be able to achieve more of her pout if you concentrate color in the middle and smudge out the edges a bit kinda like a soft fade into your white base on your lips. Idk if that makes sense but I do something similar with my bottom lip cause my double lip line pisses me off sometimes. I use about face black eye paint but you could achieve it with eyeshadow if it interests you :)

So idk if this is the best example cause I did it super rushed with no base to blend it into, I also have a super defined cupids bow so I can never pull off the rounded look ๐Ÿ˜ญ. But this is the idea, concentrated in the middle and lightly faded out into your white without leaving the lines of your lips. Gives the illusion of a more full pout because youโ€™re focusing the middle. Think of a bee sting lip but not as harsh of lines :)

Hopefully that can give you the look youโ€™re trying to achieve. Youโ€™ll have better luck cause you already have fuller lips and that sort of shape will suit them. Also if youโ€™d like you can dm me if you have any questions or anything I love word barfing about this stuff lol
