Nothing keeps you humble like doing your makeup in front of a 4-year-old 💀 ‘You

If you found this page because you were searching for the underpainting makeup technique, take a seat. This video is my actual morning routine featuring a four-year-old nephew who possesses zero filter. I was testing the method where you paint on your dark contour and your bright concealer before blending sheer foundation over the top. My honest verdict is that the technique gives a remarkably seamless finish, but you have to make peace with looking like a swamp creature for three solid minutes.

If you watch closely right before the transition, you can see my exact expression when he leans into the frame to ask why my face is muddy. You might also notice I applied way too much cool-toned contour on my left jawline. I had to aggressively buff that mistake out with a wet sponge off-camera so I did not look like I had a giant bruise.

The algorithm completely ignored this post because the visual hook was too slow. It barely scraped five hundred views. That said, the engagement rate was unusually high for such a tiny reach. The viewers who actually stuck around were entirely composed of parents and older siblings who completely understood the pain. They know the distinct humiliation of having a preschooler critically evaluate your blending skills before breakfast.
