I have light/neutral undertone.
I wear makeup just at work, so about 5 days a week. I focus on skincare and longer term masking/treatments on the weekends.
Makeup is about 10 minutes tops now. I found with wearing a mask constantly at work and when out that wearing lipstick and foundation is completely non-essential. Too much smudging while wearing the mask and the lipstick really stains the inside of the mask as well. I tried to wear lipstick for a few days with a mask and it would rub against the inside of the cloth mask and smudge around my mouth area too. I looked like the Joker applied it.
As for foundation, since the mask covers the majority of my cheeks, nose, and chin area it’s not required nor serves much of anything. It too stains and rubs off on my mask. I focus now on brows, a touch of liner and mascara.
Your skin tone/coloring: Light neutral skin tone, green eyes, s&p hair

How long does it usually take for you to do your makeup? Not counting skincare and time for moisturizer and primers to sink in or set, probably 15 to 20 minutes.
Lt. warm skintone.
I wear makeup daily. I see too much uneven tone and dark circles to just let it be. I do sometimes forgo mascara while staying home since it’s such a pain to take off and usually smears eventually.
Weekdays have lots of work related Zoom calls, so I try to make my makeup flattering and unobtrusive – my version of professional. On the weekends there’s more experimentation, and I play with a broader range of color and texture. Either way, I probably spend 15 – 30 minutes. Tbh the time I take is more based on mood than any complexity of ‘the look’.

How long does it usually take for you to do your makeup? Depends! If I’m doing a quick, easy look: 15 minutes, I guess. But, if I’m going to do a very involved eye look using 6-8 shades, more like 45-60 minutes.

Whenever I’m filming basically. Before I finished school and took up YouTube as a hobby it would be 3-5 times a week
Does your makeup vary from the week compared to the weekend? When I was in school it varied depending on whether or not I had a Business/Economics class that day. I was a Drama major with a minor in Economics and the attitudes on makeup in the Drama department vs. the Business school were night and day. I would get tons of compliments on colorful makeup from Drama people but keep it more conservative in the Business school lest I get long stares from the business bros. Now there’s no difference

Depends what look I’m going for. I can be ready in 15 minutes for a simple look, but when I feel like it, I can easily sit down at my vanity for about an hour and do a full detailed look.
