For people with damaged skin barriers, big pores and textured skin

I use innisfree green tea cleansing foam cleanser and it’s not gentle at all. I always use it to wash my makeup off but after I use it, my skin feels so tight and dry. I use anua barrier cream and cetaphil moisturizing cream paired with curel moisturizing spray. I sometimes use glycolic acid on my face to exfoliate. I don’t use sunscreen at the moment. Sometimes I’ll look at my skin in the mirror or phone camera and it’ll look so dry.

What gentle cleansers have helped your skin barrier and skin health overall? Am I using the right products, if so why is my skin still dry? I also have big pores, textured skin and hyperpigmentation and I want to combat all three of these

I love when a makeup vision comes to fruition 🌅

Drop any suggestions/product recommendations for making this look pop! I already know that I want a more vibrant yellow eye shadow, I want my cut creases to look cleaner (but I’m not sure how - do I let the primer line of delineation show a bit?), I’ll add lashes next time and I want an orange-y blush.

Tutorial recs, please!

I’m looking for some YouTube makeup tutorials for a simple everyday eye look for dark-skinned women over 45. Something easy and realistic for work, errands, lunch, casual dinner, etc. No lashes, no 80-step routine, and preferably not a ton of concealer products under the eyes. Just a clean, polished everyday look.

Beautymaxxing is trending on TikTok: What Are Y’all Doing to Glow Up?

Beautymaxxing has been ALL over TikTok lately and I’m curious what everyone here is doing to “beautymax” 👀

For anyone who hasn’t seen the trend, beautymaxxing is basically putting extra effort into enhancing your appearance and overall glow up. It can be anything from skincare, fitness, haircare, makeup, whitening strips, lash growth, better sleep, posture, confidence, style upgrades, supplements, or even just drinking more water and being consistent with self care.

So ladies… what are y’all doing right now to level up your beauty routine? What’s actually working for you? Any underrated tips/products/habits?
