Basic make up tutorials/ideas

I can’t believe I have reach the ripe old where I’m nearly 40 and I am genuinely clueless about make up and skin care.
I have spent time researching skin care and seem to be alright with that now but make up I am clueless and I think the time has come where it would benefit me.

Are there any good YouTube/insta accounts I should be following to get ideas? I seem to mainly see people with darker tones or young girls who, if I replicated, I would probably look a bit mutton.

I want to look natural and polished. I am a ‘spring’ colour palette, 5ft 9, blonde hair and blue eyes. Very fair complexion. Not to sound teeny bopper but same colourings and stature as Taylor Swift. On a good day.

Any input massively appreciated!
