Using Snapchat for makeup advice!

So I went on snapchat for the first time and was gobsmacked at how young it makes you look. So I studied what it was, aside from tbe obvious heart shaping of face, removal of eye bags, wrinkles etc and tried to copy the make up this morning. I swear it's taken 5 years off me!
So I usually use brown bronzer on face and eyes and use eyeshadow under my eye and lip pencil too.
Today I scrapped the bronzer, just used a rose pink as blush and bronze - i.e. on temples and forehead too - used the same pink in crease of eye - no shadow on lid. Then the important bit - loads of black eyeliner across top lid only all the way into the inner corner and 3 coats of mascara. Clean undereye - no concealer or liner at all.
No lip liner, just a really shiny rose pink lip gloss.
Brows - full and brushed up vertically with slight definition.
Should say the blush placement was high and just to the outer corner of eyes - I usually take bronzer further in but this way looks really natural.
I got a whistle in TKMaxx car park today - I'm 47!, and I just look glowing but not overly made up.
Have a go on Snapchat, see how it makes you look and try and copy it.

But that's just a filtered version of yourself? It's not what you look like irl. Or have I misunderstood you?

Yes it's a filter but I copied what the filter did iyswim. Snapchat is more than just a filter though in that it changes your face completely but the basic structure of your face is the same. Anyway, the makeup is soft and pink but with a very defined eye - gives a glowing Bambi look
