You know you think you're better off applying bronzer below your cheekbones to contour and brushing up for a sun-kissed look. You definitely have a lipstick strategy, too, and may prefer a Kylie Jenner-esque matte lip, or a shimmering bubblegum pink, "legally blonde"-inspired gloss. You might love a rosy lipstick for everyday wear, a dewy highlighter on cheekbones, inner corners and Cupid's bow, and a quick swipe of brown mascara to complete the look. No matter what unique beauty routine you have, we can all agree that using eyeliner is the most difficult makeup step. Thankfully, TikTok makes it a lot easier than it used to be.
