Critique my makeup please (mostly Bobbi brown)
I use- benefit boing under my eyes and also Bobbi brown creamy concealer stick
Then I use Bobbi brown stick foundation or compact powder foundation
Then I use powder (if I've used the stick foundation above)
Then Bobbi brown bronzer
Then Bobbi brown taupe eyeshadow (got blue grey eyes)
Then Bobbi brown eyebrow pencil
But I still don't look any good!
Help! How can I look more 'done'?

Why don’t you go to a counter and get your makeup done? They will give you some pointers and can recommend colours that suit you etc
Do you use any blusher, mascara or lipstick?

It might not be the makeup it may be the technique.

how are you applying your foundation
where are you applying your concealer
how are you blending it?
what’s the powder, is it a matt or sheen? Any colour?
where are you placing the bronzer and how are you blending that?
how much eye shadow are you putting on, where on your lid are you putting it, how are you applying it?
how are you applying and styling your brows? Do you get them done at all too?
what’s your mascara/lip colour/blush routine/product etc.

i agree with pp go to a few different counters to get your make up done and see what techniques/products you like and use a combo. Watch TikTok or YouTube tutorials!

i also would not stick to just one brand, why the obsession with the one?
i use a combo of Clinique, Rommel, Bobbie brown, benefit, urban decay, Charlotte T etc for example. I also change my foundation through the seasons, matt to glowy etc, more or less bronzer/blush. Could you try mixing it up? I also have like 3 levels of makeup: bare minimum for going out: concealer, brows and mascara. General day to day: everything bar eye shadow and eye liner but a natural look. Going out meals/dos/nights out/events where I do slightly heavier and add eye shadows, eyeliner and highlighter.

worth exploring and watching YouTube for ideas?

I think mascara, blusher and lipstick/tint makes the biggest difference

If you like Bobbi Brown, I highly recommend the vitamin enriched face base. It's a moisturiser and primer in one and any makeup I put on after glides on like silk. I love it
