I love the fact that some face features considered not so attractive like having a wider nose actually makes these women even more attractive. This video made me appreciate what I have more thank you Aly xxx
In the end it is always a question of proprotions. Jennifer Lawrence has such doll-like face wile having hooded eyes and strong blunt bones something many women don't like. But a slim thin nose wouldn't fit the rest of the face. Same the other way around with all the women with delicate sharp bones doing fillers in their cheeks looking swollen and not youthfu at alll. To some people nature is extra mean but in general it makes sense why we are built how we are built and not the certain body part is wrong but the styling and the make-up. And that is what Kibbe is about and it is so great.
FNs look great if they have mussed lipstick. I do this by applying the lipstick and then running slightly on the edges. A sharply applied matte liquid lipstick never works for me. Lipstick that looks worn in looks better
Aly, us big nosed girls need you, instagram has almost brainwashed us! Loved you video about lip fillers, can you make a video about does everyone need a rhinoplasty?
@@jasmeen5712 In her lip fillers video she had such beautiful illustrations appreciating all types of lips and I believe it would be super helpful if Aly would do the same thing with noses
Holy cow. 5’9” FN here. That’s literally a distillation of the best-working of the techniques I’ve used for my makeup for decades. It also explains why the very sheer, watery makeup and “no makeup” looks never worked for me. I need some definition to look my best.
@@schneeroseful I also find with deeper set hooded eyes a la Jennifer Lawrence, unless I really closely do eyeliner to my natural eyeline, my eye makeup just tends to get lost and look desperate, lol. I focus much more on the bones of my face and having a natural glow that way with bronzer and blush.
I'm also an FN and I do a more 40's inspired makeup look as well! I usually just go light on my eyes, but heavier on mascara/lashes. While going all out on the bold red lip and dark brows.
I'm an FN and for natural day makeup I would always just slap on some neutral shimmer shadows and I'd always find myself hating how it looked. Now I know why! I definitely prefer mattes on myself and now I know I'm 100% sticking to that haha.
I'm a FN and I always had the sense that my face "can handle" a lot of eye makeup. Geometric looks odd, so I definitely agree on the blending and even crazy colours but always richer and darker even though I am pretty fair. My brows I leave almost uncared for. Thank you Aly, you changed my perception of myself. Nowadays I love my body!
I've always wondered why I preferred darker eye looks than all my friends, and hated how sharp liquid liner looked on me even though it was the biggest trend. Now I know why! I can't quite decide if I'm SD or FN so I'm mixing your tips from both videos :D
I'm always putting an accent on my eyes, blending well, no shimmer, only inner corners sometimes. Lips nude. I'm 6'1 tall, dirty blond hair. I wish I could attach a picture to share.
Yesssss I've been waiting for this! So basically deep, matte, natural colors and lots of blending, are the main points. As a FN I never really liked doing lipstick, I always focus on the eyes. Usually I don't spend much time or effort on makeup at all, just powder and mascara, but sometimes I'll do eyeliner and shadow. It's good to know that I don't have to focus on making any kind of shape with the shadows, because I've never been sure of how to do that anyway. Makes it a lot easier to just think of it as blending all over, just making it deep and natural and smoky looking.
Actually now I found out that I was doing all of this before. And I didn't know why I love bolder makeup blended to the bushy brows. I knew that small and precised liner just isn't for me. Same with contrast. I loved having very dark hair becouse it's the opposite of my fair skin tone and washed out green eyes. Also I never applied lipstick normally. I had to blend the lines, even if it was red, or black lipstick. Blend the edges for every color. Thank you for this Ally!
I think I am flamboyant natural, as I am 5"10 and have length and width. but not the sharpness of dramatic. I can pull off and do opt for more minimalist styles with a kind of relaxed vibe and long line. I will go for a punch of jewelry in larger proportions and layer necklaces in bright gold or silver. I definitely show my super long legs and hip area and shoulders. I can really do the blazer look. I can kind of operate in the dramatic shape, but with natural texture and more ease. All the makeup recommendations work for me here and I rely on contour and not foundation and always do my brows, brush straight as I can to soften my brow use products to fill in and define, but keep it soft so I don't look too harsh. really too saturated a lip color and fine points on the eyes can over emphasize my hooded eyes, any fine lines. So I use a lot of brushes and dust of my look to bare minimum always doing a clean no makeup aesthetic. I actually like to use highlighter in a mixed neutral shade or even liquid blush. I don't have to be too precise applying any pigments and blending is really it! I am warm and a little olivey, with blue green eyes that are medium sized not large but very marked in the brow line. I would say a signature look for me is a layered haircut that shows off my cheekbones and open expression. I have always had a lions' mane of hair and volume in my hair and natural highlights. A do minimal heat styling and just groom my hair usually down unless when I run. A 10 minute face with facial ahead, serums and moisture. some bronzing but just softly. I actually just use a primer and do light contour over that. I let my freckles show and don't use concealer. I like my skin to look clear. For the lip, a not too bright red shade, kind of dusty. I can look over done, when I do too much and have to rely on more on my athleticism and my desired speed in getting ready. Comfort and movement are really important to me. I kind of do makeup anticipating I will sweat it off in the course of the day. Thanks for giving me the confidence to fully embrace this as part of my look, Aly. It took me such a long time to forget about not being hourglass shaped and look to enhance what I have. That's the point of the essence piece of this system. Flamboyant natural is the really athletic essence and we shouldn't over do it, we are youthful. I would say height is the very first thing anyone notices about me. I feel like this is my natural confidence for the first time. I spent so many years emulating other body types instead of my own! Know I know better.
Thank you! Would like to add some tips, but as a FN I can only confirm that you pretty much covered all of it. Maybe worth emphasising, is the importance of blending well on the eyes. I've personally found that for the cat-eye look, very dark brown eye shadow applied with a slanted brush works better than stark black liquid liner.
I'm a FN with Light Summer coloring. That gets quite confusing in both makeup and style: as we (FNs) are not supposed to wear anything too light/airy/pastel/light/washed out, and yet those are basically my colors. Still working on finding that balance!
Diana maybe try following the tutorial exactly but just use your normal eyeshadow palette and maybe a brown eyeliner pencil and see what happens! Stick with your COLOR but in the FN STYLE :)
I have a similar issue being a bright spring - but I find the contouring is key, then smokey eye and then using the right lipstick color can make all the difference. I bet you'd look great with a 60's kind of mod look - smokey eye with white lipstick.
I am light summer as well and for me certain grey tones work best for darker eye make up like Korres volcanic eyeshadow in "33 grey-rown" (cool deep taupe ). Deep blue or green looks like being beaten in the face, brown looks like dirt and black is too harsh ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
(Super late answer haha) Im also FN and have summer comoring (not exactly sure which one) but I like to take a cool soft color and find the darker shade of that example, dark taupe, smokey pinks and purples, olive green, grey and so on. You could check out some cool toned eye shadow palettes 😊 I think its most important to keep it cool toned but not as clear as winter tones. Same with contour and lipstick
Because I am not overly tall, I assumed I was a natural. And I do look good in any natural lines and styles. I’ve always preferred relaxed lines, low slung pants, etc. But it still didn’t quite seem like me. The more I looked into kibbe types the more I realized I am always drawn to the flamboyant natural lines and when I dress that way, all of a sudden my outfit always seems put together even if it’s just the simplest casual wear. What really tipped it over to flamboyant for me was the makeup and hair. This is exactly how I have always preferred to do my makeup and my hair. When you said we don’t look so great with fake eyelashes I started to laugh because I have a drawer full of them. Have tried and tried and tried and augh. Nope. Never mind what type or what techniques, they just always look bizarre on me. Just some very dark and thick mascara on the outsides of my eyes and having my eyebrows nice a strong and bam. I look totally “finished”. And yes, absolutely cannot do the light sparkly eyeshadow. I look totally normal with a smudgy smoky eye focused on the outer edge. It never looks out of place even in the day. And the messier my hair is, the more people comment on how great it looks. When I want to do a full face of makeup or just take it up a notch, I will contour but mostly just my cheeks and forehead, blending it in to the edges of my eyes. It nicely emphasizes the strong bones in my face. I might add a tiny bit of highlight here and there but very little. Everything that just punches up the strength in my bone structure works really well and I don’t need anything else. It can’t be a full face of makeup, i find. Like I can’t do strong eyes, contouring, and a bold lip. I have to pick one and usually the emphasis is on my eyes and my strong cheekbones. I rarely wear blush, but instead use a softer bronzer with a hint of pink. I have been tempted to cut my hair so many times and have gotten a pixie cut a few times. Ya, no. It never ever really works. My hair has to be long with layers that make it go a little bit wild. When I curl it, it has to be almost haphazard. Anything too restrained just looks so off. It all needs to be bold, free, easy, relaxed. Everything in me just wants something to be strong. Bold. I don’t wear mych jewelry and again I have to pick one - either earrings or a necklace. I can’t do both. And if i wear a necklace it has to be big and bold. Delicate chains look ridiculous on me. Earrings are usually quite large or irregularly shaped. Natural styles are just too soft for me somehow. These are the final touches that can really solidify your type if youre not sure. When it all comes together, wow. It’s fantastic and it feels like you’ve finally come home to yourself. It also explains why even though I don’t look like Cindy Crawford, when I was growing up whenever I would see her it felt like I was looking at myself. The details are different but the proportions and lines and the strong bold features and that sense of her being powerful and strong … that is what resonated with me. Looking back, I wasn’t really that cognizant of it because i wasn’t all that into fashion, when I did look for inspiration it was always her looks and they always looked good on me. My mom kept trying to get me to dress like Grace Kelly for some odd reason. She was convinced I had a classic hourglass figure but NOTHING in those lines looked good on me. And I literally felt like I was being strangled lol. As soon as I untucked my shirt and pulled my pants down onto my hips … I felt like myself. And it looked better by far. I hated having my hair up or cut into a short bob. As soon as I was old enough to do what I wanted with my hair, I grew it out and either had it up in a messy ponytail or just flying free. Bold and strong yet natural and relaxed seems to be the key ingredient mix for us FN’s.
I’m a Flamboyant Natural and my daily makeup look centers around looking very fresh faced. A huge focus for me is complexion. I feel like that makes the most impact for my overal presentation. I don’t like too matte foundations, I feel like they suck life out of my skin. I tend to go for foundations that are a natural or radiant finish (Benefit Hello Happy Soft Blur foundation, Shiseido Synchro Skin Self refreshing foundation, Shiseido Radiant Lifting Foundation). I then apply a cream blush that is close to my skin color but just a bit warmer it’s called Milk Chocolate by Bobbi Brown (they don’t make it anymore unfortunately). I then apply my matte Bobbi Brown bronzer in broad upwards swoops (so in the direction of my temples). And add a brick colored matte blush (my favorites are Ginger Pop by Clinique and Fever by Mac). I then use a lipliner to define my lips, but I blend really well. I never understood why very sharply defined liner didn’t look well but I just knew it didn’t 🤣 I then usually wear some type of red or brick color on my lips. I don’t really wear mascara anymore since my eyes tear up so much. But I really like the bare eyes look. When I do decide to do eye makeup I go for clumpy lashes, well blended eye eyeliner or just a really bold eyeliner look. Looks great! If I want to do more colors I need to blend reallllly well, it takes a lot of time, so I usually skip eye makeup all together and focus on my cheekbones and lips. I do wear concealer, but just very lightly to make me look a bit more awake in a color that is a bit more peachy than my skin-tone (Shiseido Synchro Skin Self Refreshing concealer); less is more! Oh, and I naturally have bushy and bold brows. I fully embrace them, they really frame face. Don’t really do much to them to be honest 🤣Thanks for all your amazing content Aly!! You are a true master! Love from the Netherlands✨
As a FN, I always apply a darker nude matte lipstick/lip pencil - aaalways. Any kind of lip gloss makes me look really weird. And I need to have perfect but natural brows. As for the eyes emphasis, I simply cannot go with darker colors... looks too heavy and masculine on me.
I think this is the best look you've ever had. You are really improving in "looking like the other bodytypes", and if someone for a day wants to be more one type or another, she can follow these videos as a guide. I think it's brilliant. If I can suggest the next topic after these makeup videos, I think it would be very interesting if you could talk about how to cheat or break some Kibbe rules or borrowing from other types without looking too separate.
I’m a flamboyant natural and I definitely learned the hard whay that light eyeshadows NEVER look good on me😂 It makes me look older and pale When I do my eyeliner I alway use tape so that the line is really straight and not curved cause I don’t like a cute look
I wear a TON of mascara, dark eye shadow (when I feel like it), and PILES of bronzer. I have learned that my brows are much better bushy. For years, I felt totally out of place in the beauty space...until bushy brows came back! Thank you for these videos. You have helped me accept my type of beauty! 😉
Thanks to your video series, I have found a style (flamboyant natural) that actually accentuates my body and face. I'm 5' 10" tall with a broad build. I have brown hair but it looks better with soft, lighter highlights and a looser style. (It's chin length, not long, but because I wear it loosely it complements my face.) These makeup tips reflect what looks best on me. I have a bone structure and eye shape similar to Brooke Shields. I can do a soft smoky eye but the color needs to be on the outer lid, and I look better with darker lips but nothing darker than a berry color. I love contouring to show off my cheek bones! Thank you so much for these videos!
Look 1 apply foundation and powder long face prominent cheekbones you can contour your face during the day : intense but blended brows not thin or super sharply made soft lipstick application with fingers clumpy lashes (top and bottom) not glamorous or wispy line your lashes with brown or grey shadow salmon crease look 2 salmon crease deep and matte colors but very blended (not glitter pastel or light) liquid eyeliner + black eyeshadow dark crease dusty bordeaux lip pencil red lip color more lashes look 3

As an FN I like to darken the eyes and blend eyeshadows well! And I understood that matt dark lipstick (it was so popular and may be still) doesn't suit me at all!
Same here, I was waiting for this video, I'm also a Flamboyant Natural but I think with a bit more drama in me . I'm 1.71 m and have dark feature with a high contrast value. I have neutral skin leaning to cooler side.I need strong saturated colors and to always accentuate my eyes. Pastels look very dull on me, and yes I need to blend very well the eye shadow, I always blend it almost to the eyebrows because I saw that I can handle the color till there. Most of the time I just use black eyeliner and a lot of mascara. But I love dark lipsticks, I use from red to almost dark violet. I don't contour my face, I don't like to put too much product on my face. Even with the foundation I like to still show a bit my skin, I don't go full coverage. But at the end I guess you can wear whatever makes you feel comfortable and in your own skin. I think it is hard until you find your own identity and style and after that you can play with technics and colors. Kisses and love from a romanian girl that now lives in Germany
I was expecting for this video for so long! I've noticed that whenever I put an accent on my eyes people compliment my make up and yes, I always do it very blended, by the way it seems like it takes forever for me to put make up on because I have to blend eeeeeverything. Another thing that I do is that I never put blush on like strikes as they teach on tutorial, it looks awful on me. I try to follow my cheeks shape, that are large but no so full. And when I'm feeling it I also apply some blush on my nose to give me that sun tanned look. And as much as I love a defined red lipstick I also like to apply it in a smudged way, as if that was my natural lip color. One day one co worker said to me "your make up looks so pretty today but I'm only able to say that because I see you without make up on pretty often, If I saw you on the street I'd never guess you have nothing on your face." So yes, natural, no make-up make-up is the look for us, but we can be pretty glam on the night if we want to. It's the best of both worlds!
I'm the same with blush - I apply it so that I look how I do with naturally rosy cheeks - all over my apples and even up toward my undereyes and near my nose.
Hey I've been following you for a while now (like a couple years) and I wanna mention that I can really tell the progress you've made in speaking english and I love seeing/hearing how more confident and almost fluent you sound
Finally!)) Thank you! From my own experience I noticed that it's important not to be too humble and use wider and longer lines. Make sure I don't stay just inside the lips contour, the crease or this 0.1 mm 'close to eyelashes' zone and blend further outside. Otherwise facial features look smaller, face - swollen, and the make-up - half done. And a brows observation. Yes, they should not be too thin and short, but making them too thick makes the look heavy and masculine. They start to outweigh the other features, but because of strong Yang in FN it doesn't work as a contrast.
Ive been typed multiple times that im verified 100% flamboyant Natural and this makes SO much sense to me. I thought i was Dramatic or Soft Dramatic. But i lean more towards length and bluntness and striking features. whenever i do my lips i have to blot them or leave them faded lip color because full painted lips (unless theyre red) look too much like face paint.
Andrea Velez I relate. I’m a TR and I have coarse wavy hair, sometimes I love it, but it looks untidy, not flattering, I had that notion when I started analyzing more carefully my full body pictures 🤦🏻♀️
@@jessicagomes4043 I know, I am too. Same situation. I'm trying curly girl method to embrace the waves but make them look tidy without frizz etc. I started like a week ago so I'm still working on it. Hydration and no sulfates/silicons, no brushes and low heat is the key.
Thank you so much for these videos. I love the way you speak of each type with admiration and positivity. As an fb I can confirm that the tips you’ve mentioned are the things that look best on my face. Especially dark (but soft!) brows and soft blended eye but with drama in the form of colour contrast. I have light hazel eyes so a matte purple tinted shadow looks awesome on me. Also the right shade of dark green. For lips I prefer a to wear something as close to the darkest shade my lips naturally appear so I think of it as a dark nude but others might call it a burnt berry shade. Also some bronzer around all of the outside edges of my face seems to look nice.
I think you just helped me to discover my Kibbe type tonight, Aly! Prior to this video, I watched your "Curvy Flamboyant Naturals??? / Kibbe Body Types" video, and for the first time from watching these videos, the description of the body type and bone structure actually resonated with me! I feel like this is gonna be life-changing in some way, though I've instinctually figured SOME stuff out. It's always nice to be able to give a NAME to things.
I have no words to thank you. I will completely change my look because of your teachings. Now i begin to really understand our body language. love and light for you!
My best friend is a FN, I'm a TR, so basically opposites! We have very similar colouring, yet are flattered by completely different makeup. She looks amazing with contouring and darker, heavier eye make up or a matte red lip, while I neeeeed shimmer and watery colors to look alive. Interesting how important bone structure is😊
Funny-- i just learned recently that i am a FN, and now i understand why i've always preferred doing this type of makeup; dark, matte, super blended eyeshadow on both top and bottom lids, often reaching towards my brow. the light/sharp looks just dont quite work for me and now i get it!
I guess I am FN, and I can't feel comfortable without accent on my eyes : blended darkish eyeshadow on the lower lid and in the corner, blended crease (upwards, sure, with hooded eyes the's no other option), mascara to curl and volume up my lashes, nude lipstick, sometimes just lip gloss. I'm 1,75 m tall.
I tend to focus most on my skin, and always start with a luminous primer. I never wear foundation as I have clear skin and freckles, if I cover them it looks strange to me. Instead I use a bit of strategically placed concealer and a light layer of powder to set and help blending. I don't contour but use bronzer instead, blush in natural colour (in my case peach) draped along the cheekbone towards the temples, and then I find a bit of highlighter does wonders (tip: I always apply a little bit at the inner corner of my eyes, even if I don't do any other eye makeup. It gives such a fresh and awake appearance). Once I've applied everything, I go over it with the powder brush to blend again. Then I add tinted brow gel. Once the makeup is done, I spritz with setting spray to make everything melt into the skin. I find this is the key to great makeup for me, whether I add nothing else, a bit of tinted lip balm or gloss and perhaps mascara and pencil liner, or go all in with a smokey eye or dark lips (I never do both at the same time), the very well blended, natural and healthy looking base is key! I find this to be true for many flamboyant naturals, that's why it's the supermodel go to everyday makeup.
I use organic skincare for my face (incl different vitamin and protein serums), minimal concealer, no foundation. Contouring cheekbones with a light bronzer, then contouring under my browbone, brown mascara, lip liner and lip gloss or chapstick after -mostly matte colors from my color palette 🎨
This is exactly how i wear my makeup and hair. I tried lighter hair and makeup this summer, and it made me look washed out. I also tried the thin eyebrows and it just looked off. I also noticed that i have a more olive undertone and most off my base makeup look red on me somehow. Even tho i matched it at the store. In this video i found out that i am a true FN
I'm flamboyant natural lol and yea I love glitter but it looks bad on my kids lol so highlighter is my go to, on my cheeks, middle of forehead a little and the center line of my nose, I have a big chin and strong broad jawline so I try and bring my makeup up and I contour below my jaw and chin onto my neck so it makes it look not as big. Eyeliner is my best friend but only when its chunky, thin lines make me look more masculine. I love when I get my hair curled tight and I comb it out so it looks very Julia Robert's, that's my favorite
I’ve never done the math, but I’m 5’10” and rectangular, and have landed on FN as the closest Kibbe type. I’ve always had hooded eyes, but with age, they are serious now. I’ve been taking my liner (usually just matte, lighter eye shadows) more and more horizontally to get out from under the hoods. Also have been using the real estate under my eyes more, like Korean MUAs do, since it’s what I have! Have enjoyed your Kibbe series, and of all the people I’ve listened to trying to break down this arcane system, you have been the clearest! TY!
Flamboyant natural here. Finally, understand why I gravitate to bold colors. Thanks for the blending tips and all the examples through different decades. Very helpful! 👍😊
Thank you. It took a while to find my type. First I thought dramatic, but my face with big round eyes was not sharp/angular enough. then because someone told me I look a bit like Nina Dobrev (never saw her before), so I thought I am her type dramatic classic, but I am not that curvy. So Finally: FN. Yes, blended dark colors even if it looks like mascara melt-down after crying:) looks good on me.
I struggle so much seeing the difference between the two! I lot of FN models are so thin that I don’t see the FN width - they look like tall DCs to me.
I'm a FN and my coloring is dark winter. I usally do a very bold dark libstick with lote of mascara for daily looks, and colorfull dark eyes for evenings
What a coincidence, I was just searching for a FN video from you a few hours ago, because I think my mom might be one! She mostly uses eyeliner which looks best when blended out, but I want to try to give her a makeover and try something from your video, especially heavier eyebrows because she doesn't have any real ones and is too lazy to draw on more than a line :D
Yes to all of this. Sadly it took me many years to discover all of this, but finally I got it 😄 I want to add: liquid liner close to skin tone (at least in value) and similar to eye colour looks great on me. I have green eyes and I use a light olive colour liquid blush to do a wing. Great daytime look with an interesting touch.
Over the last few years, I realized that conventional makeup techniques don’t work for my face. My basic makeup evolved to be: under eye concealer, lashes, _blended_ matte bronzer to my cheekbones and crease, brow mascara, thin matte dark brown liner to the upper eyelid corner, and a skin tone mauve lip. For night I would just layer thin black eyeliner on top. I was an accidental FN!
Anyone else feel like Flamboyant Natural and Theatrical Romantic tend to have similar faces but just a difference in size/delicacy? I’m theatrical romantic but I see a lot of similar eyes and cheek bones to mine on flamboyant naturals.
Omg yes. I’m a TR and I’ve always wanted to look like Paris Hilton who is a FN so I’ve tried copying her makeup but it looked heavy on me. Before I ever knew about Kibbe body types I did notice that there was a similarity in our faces and I even had someone else point it out to me too. Her face is sharp but also delicate yet broad. Idek if I described it right lmao but yes I know exactly what you mean.
Thank you!! I was thinking the same thing and I thought I was crazy lol. I'm a TR (I think) but my face looks a lot like naturals. And in test, I had mostly naturals answers for my facial features. Or maybe I have some type of N face on a TR body ? I don't know if it's true or not.
The only similarity I see between them is recommended red lipstick as a frontal part of the makeup. But whereas TR make up should be glamourised, FN, apart from bold lips, is still quite natural and dewy.
Hahhh this video is a god-send. I have flamboyant natural bone structure with full lips, widely spaced eyes, kind of gamine-ish, with a prominent nose. I tend to look Lizza-Minelli-y-Cabaret-y with strong eyes, which doesn't flatter me at all. I started to think maybe I should use only dark brown, rather than black, to define my eyes, so it won't look 'heavy'. Your tip about blending makes sense. Thank you!
Great video! I usually use mat eyeshadows in natural colors (brown ang grey are fav). Blended, exactly like you said. When I use a liquid eyeliner without eyeshados it looks too sharp on photos. It's better to combine it with some blended eyeshadows. Gel eyeliner works much better and creates soft deep cat eyes. Love mat or satin lips with rounded lines. I contour my cheekbones and jaw/neck to make it look a little closer to oval classy. But not much and the product is not very dark. I have been loving shimmery face powder to add some nice sunkissed skin effect, but not too much.
Thanks for this. Contouring has always been confusing for me since my face is very thin and small. I never knew how to use contour to give wideness and volume.
Hello Aly, thank you very much again :). Your videos are great. I take an inspiration for day make up also from Gisele Bundchen, she is FN I think and not wearing a lot of make up. Do you think matt lipstick is better for FN than the shimmer? Or it more depends on oily/not oily skin of the person? I found out that if I use color from the lips and put a bit by fingers on my cheeks, it kind of 'wake up' my face. And give more harmony to the look. I wish you all the best! :)
Thank you for your channel, I have been enjoying it immensely. I think I am an FB and this video has tipped me even further toward that idea. My go-to is eyeliner: rich black but soft and the kind that sort of bleeds a bit into the eye area but after that, doesn't move. Something like Chanel, Urban Decay or Illamasqua. I am not me without this.
@@AlyArt have you considered doing a video about jackets, suits or blazers for the body types? I happen to have not flexible dress code for work and my roundness and smallish appareance doesn't really get along with those masculines cuts, lenghts, etc.
I have thin lips, so I make them a tiny little bit bigger but with a natural color. Maybe some lipgloss. The focus are my almond eyes! I have green eyes, so I use brownish colors, but very very blendet. I tend to Makel them darker. Sometimes a Rose glitter tone on the middle and than nicely blendet into the brown. I'm trying out some eyeliner, and I think I like it (thin), but it's so much work.... bronzer, some blush and I'm ready :)
Aly, you look so beautiful always. But I do miss the way you used to style yourself, like the cute curly hair. It seems more youthful and flattering on you, and the softer makeup. I really think that you look so pretty in the soft looks. I love all your videos, I'm sorry to hear that you have been maligned by some of the strict people in the Kibbe community. Your videos help so many people. Not referring to you in this video, but your more recent ones and your other older videos. I love watching your makeup artist skills too. ❤❤
Thank you so much!!! I was worried about my makeup because I'm not an expert and I was searching for something that suit my facial structure well!! Being an FN makes everything a little too complicated when looking for make up supplies because not everything is going to look well on me. Thank you so much for this!!!! 💜
Hi Aly, hope you are safe during this crazy covid situation, thanks for the video, been waiting for an entire FN video for a while now. Definitely going to try some of the tips you gave, like thicker lashes. As for my makeup, I definitely have never tried that 80's look, I guess I'd be scared to stand out too much, so I always blend it in to look more natural. Anyways, thanks so much for an all FN video Alyana, really appreciate it!! Take care and stay safe! 👋❤
I need new makeup When I was younger my face could handle some sparkle because my features are pretty yang but I think at 50 its aging me I need some solid matte colors and some way to make my skin look more dewy
Great work I still strungle to find witch type I am I would love to see a series of video that give exemple of what type of body some famous are For exemple a video "What type of body the characters of gossip girl have" or something like that ^^
I think if she said in the first video "I will follow this order" we all would be more chilled 😂 this way she's doing we don't understand what's coming next and some people get disappointed.
It's ok, I think the videos for other body type are very useful too, I noticed for exemple that I used to do Soft Natural or Romantic makeup when I am a Soft Classic, which is not good. In the meantime, I learn what is good for Classic and Romantic and try to make a mix, as watching Soft classic celebrities makeup to see what I like on them and could be good on me.
I think you can look at Theatrical romantic celebrities makeup too to see what you like ? The romantic makeup video can be useful too but instead of those pastel, soft colors trying more bright ones ?
Maybe I'll try to use more eyeshadow, but if I do an eye look with any color on my lips I feel like my whole face is too overbearing and I need to wipe off my lipstick. So lately I've been using more lipstick with maybe one color of eye shadow blended around my eyes.
hey i was wondering what piercing you feel will complement certain features and or face shapes. of course everyone should get whatever piercing the like but i feel just like how clothes and make up bring out certain features, the same logic could be applied to facial piercings. i am currently wondering if i should get an eyebrow piercing or a lip piercing and wanted to hear you input
I use only one eyeshadow/liner colour at a time (cool mattes, like the colour of a natural shadow, only slightly stronger, darker). More colours look too busy on me. If I emphasize my eyes I don't touch my brows because together it looks too harsh. I never wear bright lipsticks with sharp edges. I blend it a little bit. Lips OR eyes. Together it is too much, looks overdone.

I love the fact that some face features considered not so attractive like having a wider nose actually makes these women even more attractive. This video made me appreciate what I have more thank you Aly xxx
i LOVE a wide or "big" nose on a woman! i think it's so striking.
@@Elwyn_the_Weird It makes me happy that people like you exist
In the end it is always a question of proprotions. Jennifer Lawrence has such doll-like face wile having hooded eyes and strong blunt bones something many women don't like. But a slim thin nose wouldn't fit the rest of the face. Same the other way around with all the women with delicate sharp bones doing fillers in their cheeks looking swollen and not youthfu at alll. To some people nature is extra mean but in general it makes sense why we are built how we are built and not the certain body part is wrong but the styling and the make-up. And that is what Kibbe is about and it is so great.
FNs look great if they have mussed lipstick. I do this by applying the lipstick and then running slightly on the edges. A sharply applied matte liquid lipstick never works for me. Lipstick that looks worn in looks better
Could I use a lip pencil to achieve this?
omg that is so true! I noticed that, the outline and shape is bold, but the edges are soft looks soo great on me :)
@@nikhefe16 I think the very purpose of lip pencil is to add precision. If you use the lip pencil to smudge the edge that might be fine.
I can confirm. As a FN lip precision just looks terrible. I always use lipliner then smudge a little and add lip balm on top.
Agee! I just dab my lipstick with my finger so it doesn’t look so precise and it’s best
Aly, us big nosed girls need you, instagram has almost brainwashed us! Loved you video about lip fillers, can you make a video about does everyone need a rhinoplasty?
Look at her video about nose of her contouring series, it can help ^^
@@jasmeen5712 In her lip fillers video she had such beautiful illustrations appreciating all types of lips and I believe it would be super helpful if Aly would do the same thing with noses
Best idea ever! She sees beauty everywhere and maybe she could help us to see it too in our faces.
@@gabrielerudyte5970 I agree 😊
Great idea !!!
That sneeze at 3:53 was like a Disney princess sneeze hehe
I know! So dainty teehee 💜
Holy cow. 5’9” FN here. That’s literally a distillation of the best-working of the techniques I’ve used for my makeup for decades. It also explains why the very sheer, watery makeup and “no makeup” looks never worked for me. I need some definition to look my best.
Same here, I've gravitated to them all except for the lipstick! (Also crazy how the 'don'ts' don't work for me!)
My sentiments, exactly!
As a FN, I go more for 40's make-up: putting the accent on the eyebrows and red lips, but not much on the eyes except mascara. So no eyeshadow.
Me too! I feel all that blending is too much to do in the morning. Plus with my eyeshape and glasses, I always feel stronger eye looks look weird.
@@schneeroseful I also find with deeper set hooded eyes a la Jennifer Lawrence, unless I really closely do eyeliner to my natural eyeline, my eye makeup just tends to get lost and look desperate, lol. I focus much more on the bones of my face and having a natural glow that way with bronzer and blush.
I'm also an FN and I do a more 40's inspired makeup look as well! I usually just go light on my eyes, but heavier on mascara/lashes. While going all out on the bold red lip and dark brows.
Me too!
Yes! I don't like the way eyeshadow looks on me, way to harsh!
Love it! As a flamboyant natural I've always found my makeup looks much better with accentuating the eyes and not the lips, but I never knew why.
I'm an FN and for natural day makeup I would always just slap on some neutral shimmer shadows and I'd always find myself hating how it looked. Now I know why! I definitely prefer mattes on myself and now I know I'm 100% sticking to that haha.
I'm a FN and I always had the sense that my face "can handle" a lot of eye makeup. Geometric looks odd, so I definitely agree on the blending and even crazy colours but always richer and darker even though I am pretty fair. My brows I leave almost uncared for.
Thank you Aly, you changed my perception of myself. Nowadays I love my body!
same with me, I look crazy with eyeshadow. I look best with bare eyes and thic eyebrows.
I've always wondered why I preferred darker eye looks than all my friends, and hated how sharp liquid liner looked on me even though it was the biggest trend. Now I know why! I can't quite decide if I'm SD or FN so I'm mixing your tips from both videos :D
I'm always putting an accent on my eyes, blending well, no shimmer, only inner corners sometimes. Lips nude. I'm 6'1 tall, dirty blond hair. I wish I could attach a picture to share.
You sound stunning!
Yesssss I've been waiting for this! So basically deep, matte, natural colors and lots of blending, are the main points. As a FN I never really liked doing lipstick, I always focus on the eyes. Usually I don't spend much time or effort on makeup at all, just powder and mascara, but sometimes I'll do eyeliner and shadow. It's good to know that I don't have to focus on making any kind of shape with the shadows, because I've never been sure of how to do that anyway. Makes it a lot easier to just think of it as blending all over, just making it deep and natural and smoky looking.
Actually now I found out that I was doing all of this before. And I didn't know why I love bolder makeup blended to the bushy brows. I knew that small and precised liner just isn't for me. Same with contrast. I loved having very dark hair becouse it's the opposite of my fair skin tone and washed out green eyes. Also I never applied lipstick normally. I had to blend the lines, even if it was red, or black lipstick. Blend the edges for every color. Thank you for this Ally!
I think I am flamboyant natural, as I am 5"10 and have length and width. but not the sharpness of dramatic. I can pull off and do opt for more minimalist styles with a kind of relaxed vibe and long line. I will go for a punch of jewelry in larger proportions and layer necklaces in bright gold or silver. I definitely show my super long legs and hip area and shoulders. I can really do the blazer look. I can kind of operate in the dramatic shape, but with natural texture and more ease.
All the makeup recommendations work for me here and I rely on contour and not foundation and always do my brows, brush straight as I can to soften my brow use products to fill in and define, but keep it soft so I don't look too harsh. really too saturated a lip color and fine points on the eyes can over emphasize my hooded eyes, any fine lines. So I use a lot of brushes and dust of my look to bare minimum always doing a clean no makeup aesthetic. I actually like to use highlighter in a mixed neutral shade or even liquid blush. I don't have to be too precise applying any pigments and blending is really it! I am warm and a little olivey, with blue green eyes that are medium sized not large but very marked in the brow line.
I would say a signature look for me is a layered haircut that shows off my cheekbones and open expression. I have always had a lions' mane of hair and volume in my hair and natural highlights. A do minimal heat styling and just groom my hair usually down unless when I run. A 10 minute face with facial ahead, serums and moisture. some bronzing but just softly. I actually just use a primer and do light contour over that. I let my freckles show and don't use concealer. I like my skin to look clear. For the lip, a not too bright red shade, kind of dusty. I can look over done, when I do too much and have to rely on more on my athleticism and my desired speed in getting ready. Comfort and movement are really important to me. I kind of do makeup anticipating I will sweat it off in the course of the day.
Thanks for giving me the confidence to fully embrace this as part of my look, Aly. It took me such a long time to forget about not being hourglass shaped and look to enhance what I have. That's the point of the essence piece of this system. Flamboyant natural is the really athletic essence and we shouldn't over do it, we are youthful. I would say height is the very first thing anyone notices about me. I feel like this is my natural confidence for the first time. I spent so many years emulating other body types instead of my own! Know I know better.
Thank you! Would like to add some tips, but as a FN I can only confirm that you pretty much covered all of it. Maybe worth emphasising, is the importance of blending well on the eyes. I've personally found that for the cat-eye look, very dark brown eye shadow applied with a slanted brush works better than stark black liquid liner.
Seconded, brown liner is important
I'm a FN with Light Summer coloring. That gets quite confusing in both makeup and style: as we (FNs) are not supposed to wear anything too light/airy/pastel/light/washed out, and yet those are basically my colors. Still working on finding that balance!
Diana maybe try following the tutorial exactly but just use your normal eyeshadow palette and maybe a brown eyeliner pencil and see what happens! Stick with your COLOR but in the FN STYLE :)
I have a similar issue being a bright spring - but I find the contouring is key, then smokey eye and then using the right lipstick color can make all the difference. I bet you'd look great with a 60's kind of mod look - smokey eye with white lipstick.
I am light summer as well and for me certain grey tones work best for darker eye make up like Korres volcanic eyeshadow in "33 grey-rown" (cool deep taupe ). Deep blue or green looks like being beaten in the face, brown looks like dirt and black is too harsh ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
(Super late answer haha) Im also FN and have summer comoring (not exactly sure which one) but I like to take a cool soft color and find the darker shade of that example, dark taupe, smokey pinks and purples, olive green, grey and so on. You could check out some cool toned eye shadow palettes 😊 I think its most important to keep it cool toned but not as clear as winter tones. Same with contour and lipstick
Because I am not overly tall, I assumed I was a natural. And I do look good in any natural lines and styles. I’ve always preferred relaxed lines, low slung pants, etc. But it still didn’t quite seem like me. The more I looked into kibbe types the more I realized I am always drawn to the flamboyant natural lines and when I dress that way, all of a sudden my outfit always seems put together even if it’s just the simplest casual wear. What really tipped it over to flamboyant for me was the makeup and hair. This is exactly how I have always preferred to do my makeup and my hair. When you said we don’t look so great with fake eyelashes I started to laugh because I have a drawer full of them. Have tried and tried and tried and augh. Nope. Never mind what type or what techniques, they just always look bizarre on me. Just some very dark and thick mascara on the outsides of my eyes and having my eyebrows nice a strong and bam. I look totally “finished”. And yes, absolutely cannot do the light sparkly eyeshadow. I look totally normal with a smudgy smoky eye focused on the outer edge. It never looks out of place even in the day. And the messier my hair is, the more people comment on how great it looks. When I want to do a full face of makeup or just take it up a notch, I will contour but mostly just my cheeks and forehead, blending it in to the edges of my eyes. It nicely emphasizes the strong bones in my face. I might add a tiny bit of highlight here and there but very little. Everything that just punches up the strength in my bone structure works really well and I don’t need anything else. It can’t be a full face of makeup, i find. Like I can’t do strong eyes, contouring, and a bold lip. I have to pick one and usually the emphasis is on my eyes and my strong cheekbones. I rarely wear blush, but instead use a softer bronzer with a hint of pink. I have been tempted to cut my hair so many times and have gotten a pixie cut a few times. Ya, no. It never ever really works. My hair has to be long with layers that make it go a little bit wild. When I curl it, it has to be almost haphazard. Anything too restrained just looks so off. It all needs to be bold, free, easy, relaxed. Everything in me just wants something to be strong. Bold. I don’t wear mych jewelry and again I have to pick one - either earrings or a necklace. I can’t do both. And if i wear a necklace it has to be big and bold. Delicate chains look ridiculous on me. Earrings are usually quite large or irregularly shaped. Natural styles are just too soft for me somehow. These are the final touches that can really solidify your type if youre not sure. When it all comes together, wow. It’s fantastic and it feels like you’ve finally come home to yourself. It also explains why even though I don’t look like Cindy Crawford, when I was growing up whenever I would see her it felt like I was looking at myself. The details are different but the proportions and lines and the strong bold features and that sense of her being powerful and strong … that is what resonated with me. Looking back, I wasn’t really that cognizant of it because i wasn’t all that into fashion, when I did look for inspiration it was always her looks and they always looked good on me. My mom kept trying to get me to dress like Grace Kelly for some odd reason. She was convinced I had a classic hourglass figure but NOTHING in those lines looked good on me. And I literally felt like I was being strangled lol. As soon as I untucked my shirt and pulled my pants down onto my hips … I felt like myself. And it looked better by far. I hated having my hair up or cut into a short bob. As soon as I was old enough to do what I wanted with my hair, I grew it out and either had it up in a messy ponytail or just flying free. Bold and strong yet natural and relaxed seems to be the key ingredient mix for us FN’s.
I’m a Flamboyant Natural and my daily makeup look centers around looking very fresh faced. A huge focus for me is complexion. I feel like that makes the most impact for my overal presentation. I don’t like too matte foundations, I feel like they suck life out of my skin. I tend to go for foundations that are a natural or radiant finish (Benefit Hello Happy Soft Blur foundation, Shiseido Synchro Skin Self refreshing foundation, Shiseido Radiant Lifting Foundation). I then apply a cream blush that is close to my skin color but just a bit warmer it’s called Milk Chocolate by Bobbi Brown (they don’t make it anymore unfortunately). I then apply my matte Bobbi Brown bronzer in broad upwards swoops (so in the direction of my temples). And add a brick colored matte blush (my favorites are Ginger Pop by Clinique and Fever by Mac). I then use a lipliner to define my lips, but I blend really well. I never understood why very sharply defined liner didn’t look well but I just knew it didn’t 🤣 I then usually wear some type of red or brick color on my lips. I don’t really wear mascara anymore since my eyes tear up so much. But I really like the bare eyes look. When I do decide to do eye makeup I go for clumpy lashes, well blended eye eyeliner or just a really bold eyeliner look. Looks great! If I want to do more colors I need to blend reallllly well, it takes a lot of time, so I usually skip eye makeup all together and focus on my cheekbones and lips. I do wear concealer, but just very lightly to make me look a bit more awake in a color that is a bit more peachy than my skin-tone (Shiseido Synchro Skin Self Refreshing concealer); less is more! Oh, and I naturally have bushy and bold brows. I fully embrace them, they really frame face. Don’t really do much to them to be honest 🤣Thanks for all your amazing content Aly!! You are a true master! Love from the Netherlands✨
As a FN, I always apply a darker nude matte lipstick/lip pencil - aaalways. Any kind of lip gloss makes me look really weird. And I need to have perfect but natural brows. As for the eyes emphasis, I simply cannot go with darker colors... looks too heavy and masculine on me.
I think this is the best look you've ever had. You are really improving in "looking like the other bodytypes", and if someone for a day wants to be more one type or another, she can follow these videos as a guide. I think it's brilliant. If I can suggest the next topic after these makeup videos, I think it would be very interesting if you could talk about how to cheat or break some Kibbe rules or borrowing from other types without looking too separate.
Very good idea for next series I would love to see how we can borrow some ideas from other types
I’m a flamboyant natural and I definitely learned the hard whay that light eyeshadows NEVER look good on me😂 It makes me look older and pale
When I do my eyeliner I alway use tape so that the line is really straight and not curved cause I don’t like a cute look
I wear a TON of mascara, dark eye shadow (when I feel like it), and PILES of bronzer. I have learned that my brows are much better bushy. For years, I felt totally out of place in the beauty space...until bushy brows came back! Thank you for these videos. You have helped me accept my type of beauty! 😉
Thanks to your video series, I have found a style (flamboyant natural) that actually accentuates my body and face. I'm 5' 10" tall with a broad build. I have brown hair but it looks better with soft, lighter highlights and a looser style. (It's chin length, not long, but because I wear it loosely it complements my face.) These makeup tips reflect what looks best on me. I have a bone structure and eye shape similar to Brooke Shields. I can do a soft smoky eye but the color needs to be on the outer lid, and I look better with darker lips but nothing darker than a berry color. I love contouring to show off my cheek bones! Thank you so much for these videos!

You looked so Cameron Diaz before you started adding eyeshadow - and even then for a little bit longer. YOU DESERVE MORE FOLLOWERS FOR YOUR AMAZING CRAFT!!!
She really does. She is so good. No one else comes close, a real artist.
As an FN I like to darken the eyes and blend eyeshadows well! And I understood that matt dark lipstick (it was so popular and may be still) doesn't suit me at all!
Same here, I was waiting for this video, I'm also a Flamboyant Natural but I think with a bit more drama in me . I'm 1.71 m and have dark feature with a high contrast value. I have neutral skin leaning to cooler side.I need strong saturated colors and to always accentuate my eyes. Pastels look very dull on me, and yes I need to blend very well the eye shadow, I always blend it almost to the eyebrows because I saw that I can handle the color till there. Most of the time I just use black eyeliner and a lot of mascara. But I love dark lipsticks, I use from red to almost dark violet. I don't contour my face, I don't like to put too much product on my face. Even with the foundation I like to still show a bit my skin, I don't go full coverage. But at the end I guess you can wear whatever makes you feel comfortable and in your own skin. I think it is hard until you find your own identity and style and after that you can play with technics and colors. Kisses and love from a romanian girl that now lives in Germany
I was expecting for this video for so long! I've noticed that whenever I put an accent on my eyes people compliment my make up and yes, I always do it very blended, by the way it seems like it takes forever for me to put make up on because I have to blend eeeeeverything.
Another thing that I do is that I never put blush on like strikes as they teach on tutorial, it looks awful on me. I try to follow my cheeks shape, that are large but no so full. And when I'm feeling it I also apply some blush on my nose to give me that sun tanned look. And as much as I love a defined red lipstick I also like to apply it in a smudged way, as if that was my natural lip color.
One day one co worker said to me "your make up looks so pretty today but I'm only able to say that because I see you without make up on pretty often, If I saw you on the street I'd never guess you have nothing on your face."
So yes, natural, no make-up make-up is the look for us, but we can be pretty glam on the night if we want to. It's the best of both worlds!
I'm the same with blush - I apply it so that I look how I do with naturally rosy cheeks - all over my apples and even up toward my undereyes and near my nose.
I do the exact same make up xD
Hey I've been following you for a while now (like a couple years) and I wanna mention that I can really tell the progress you've made in speaking english and I love seeing/hearing how more confident and almost fluent you sound
Finally!)) Thank you!
From my own experience I noticed that it's important not to be too humble and use wider and longer lines.
Make sure I don't stay just inside the lips contour, the crease or this 0.1 mm 'close to eyelashes' zone and blend further outside. Otherwise facial features look smaller, face - swollen, and the make-up - half done.
And a brows observation. Yes, they should not be too thin and short, but making them too thick makes the look heavy and masculine. They start to outweigh the other features, but because of strong Yang in FN it doesn't work as a contrast.
This is how I instinctively do my makeup! Now I know why 90s makeup always suited me.
Ive been typed multiple times that im verified 100% flamboyant Natural and this makes SO much sense to me. I thought i was Dramatic or Soft Dramatic. But i lean more towards length and bluntness and striking features. whenever i do my lips i have to blot them or leave them faded lip color because full painted lips (unless theyre red) look too much like face paint.
FN's are *chef's kiss* stunning! I'm a classic, but my hair is 90's Julia Roberts 🤣 it's a dilemma sometimes but still love it.
Try curly girl method.
Andrea Velez I relate. I’m a TR and I have coarse wavy hair, sometimes I love it, but it looks untidy, not flattering, I had that notion when I started analyzing more carefully my full body pictures 🤦🏻♀️
@@jessicagomes4043 I know, I am too. Same situation. I'm trying curly girl method to embrace the waves but make them look tidy without frizz etc. I started like a week ago so I'm still working on it. Hydration and no sulfates/silicons, no brushes and low heat is the key.
Thank you so much for these videos. I love the way you speak of each type with admiration and positivity. As an fb I can confirm that the tips you’ve mentioned are the things that look best on my face. Especially dark (but soft!) brows and soft blended eye but with drama in the form of colour contrast. I have light hazel eyes so a matte purple tinted shadow looks awesome on me. Also the right shade of dark green. For lips I prefer a to wear something as close to the darkest shade my lips naturally appear so I think of it as a dark nude but others might call it a burnt berry shade. Also some bronzer around all of the outside edges of my face seems to look nice.
I think you just helped me to discover my Kibbe type tonight, Aly! Prior to this video, I watched your "Curvy Flamboyant Naturals??? / Kibbe Body Types" video, and for the first time from watching these videos, the description of the body type and bone structure actually resonated with me!
I feel like this is gonna be life-changing in some way, though I've instinctually figured SOME stuff out. It's always nice to be able to give a NAME to things.
Rewatching some of these along with your new Kibbe videos. I’ve been a fan for several years now! Great work then and now!
I have no words to thank you. I will completely change my look because of your teachings. Now i begin to really understand our body language. love and light for you!
My best friend is a FN, I'm a TR, so basically opposites! We have very similar colouring, yet are flattered by completely different makeup. She looks amazing with contouring and darker, heavier eye make up or a matte red lip, while I neeeeed shimmer and watery colors to look alive. Interesting how important bone structure is😊
Funny-- i just learned recently that i am a FN, and now i understand why i've always preferred doing this type of makeup; dark, matte, super blended eyeshadow on both top and bottom lids, often reaching towards my brow. the light/sharp looks just dont quite work for me and now i get it!
I'm glad you do these videos since today I understood that I'm not a fn. Blended makeup makes me look tired and dirty
I guess I am FN, and I can't feel comfortable without accent on my eyes : blended darkish eyeshadow on the lower lid and in the corner, blended crease (upwards, sure, with hooded eyes the's no other option), mascara to curl and volume up my lashes, nude lipstick, sometimes just lip gloss. I'm 1,75 m tall.
Always contour the cheeks and under the chin. Always. And strong lip color, not always red, but strong orange or hot pink are my colors too.
I love the dark thick brows with light hair on me! I love glittery stuff but you’ve convinced me to use matte more and it does look better!
Your critiques are so spot on. I appreciate how much detail you put in your explanations.
I tend to focus most on my skin, and always start with a luminous primer. I never wear foundation as I have clear skin and freckles, if I cover them it looks strange to me. Instead I use a bit of strategically placed concealer and a light layer of powder to set and help blending. I don't contour but use bronzer instead, blush in natural colour (in my case peach) draped along the cheekbone towards the temples, and then I find a bit of highlighter does wonders (tip: I always apply a little bit at the inner corner of my eyes, even if I don't do any other eye makeup. It gives such a fresh and awake appearance). Once I've applied everything, I go over it with the powder brush to blend again. Then I add tinted brow gel. Once the makeup is done, I spritz with setting spray to make everything melt into the skin.
I find this is the key to great makeup for me, whether I add nothing else, a bit of tinted lip balm or gloss and perhaps mascara and pencil liner, or go all in with a smokey eye or dark lips (I never do both at the same time), the very well blended, natural and healthy looking base is key! I find this to be true for many flamboyant naturals, that's why it's the supermodel go to everyday makeup.
I was waiting for this video.
I use organic skincare for my face (incl different vitamin and protein serums), minimal concealer, no foundation. Contouring cheekbones with a light bronzer, then contouring under my browbone, brown mascara, lip liner and lip gloss or chapstick after -mostly matte colors from my color palette 🎨
This is exactly how i wear my makeup and hair. I tried lighter hair and makeup this summer, and it made me look washed out. I also tried the thin eyebrows and it just looked off. I also noticed that i have a more olive undertone and most off my base makeup look red on me somehow. Even tho i matched it at the store. In this video i found out that i am a true FN
I need a light touch on my eye makeup. I'm on in my 60s, so less is more.
I'm flamboyant natural lol and yea I love glitter but it looks bad on my kids lol so highlighter is my go to, on my cheeks, middle of forehead a little and the center line of my nose, I have a big chin and strong broad jawline so I try and bring my makeup up and I contour below my jaw and chin onto my neck so it makes it look not as big. Eyeliner is my best friend but only when its chunky, thin lines make me look more masculine. I love when I get my hair curled tight and I comb it out so it looks very Julia Robert's, that's my favorite
I’ve never done the math, but I’m 5’10” and rectangular, and have landed on FN as the closest Kibbe type. I’ve always had hooded eyes, but with age, they are serious now. I’ve been taking my liner (usually just matte, lighter eye shadows) more and more horizontally to get out from under the hoods. Also have been using the real estate under my eyes more, like Korean MUAs do, since it’s what I have! Have enjoyed your Kibbe series, and of all the people I’ve listened to trying to break down this arcane system, you have been the clearest! TY!
Flamboyant natural here. Finally, understand why I gravitate to bold colors. Thanks for the blending tips and all the examples through different decades. Very helpful! 👍😊
Aly, you are great! I am like 60% dramatic and 40% natural - what do you recommend? Thanks in advance and regards from Bulgaria! 💕
If you look tall then you are FN I think - but hard to say without seeing!
@@AlyArt 🙏 I am 1.72 centimeter. Keep doing your creations, your point of view is sooo different and truth! 💗
Thank you. It took a while to find my type. First I thought dramatic, but my face with big round eyes was not sharp/angular enough. then because someone told me I look a bit like Nina Dobrev (never saw her before), so I thought I am her type dramatic classic, but I am not that curvy. So Finally: FN. Yes, blended dark colors even if it looks like mascara melt-down after crying:) looks good on me.
I’m inbetween FN and DC. My face is more FN while my body is more DC so its interesting to see how dressing a little more N or more C changes my look
J ME TOO!! to the T!!!
That's me! I struggled so much to discover my type! 😩
I struggle so much seeing the difference between the two! I lot of FN models are so thin that I don’t see the FN width - they look like tall DCs to me.
I'm a FN and my coloring is dark winter. I usally do a very bold dark libstick with lote of mascara for daily looks, and colorfull dark eyes for evenings
Finally FNaturals! Thanks for the suggestion, I'll make sure to blend well my makeup and wear darker colours. Some glitter won't hurt!
As a FN I think I look weird with lipstick.
Maybe you haven't found your best colors, choose matte always haha
What a coincidence, I was just searching for a FN video from you a few hours ago, because I think my mom might be one! She mostly uses eyeliner which looks best when blended out, but I want to try to give her a makeover and try something from your video, especially heavier eyebrows because she doesn't have any real ones and is too lazy to draw on more than a line :D
Wow cool! Yes try that! First try not to go too far from her natural coloration, and later you can add more depth or thickness :)))
Yes to all of this. Sadly it took me many years to discover all of this, but finally I got it 😄
I want to add: liquid liner close to skin tone (at least in value) and similar to eye colour looks great on me. I have green eyes and I use a light olive colour liquid blush to do a wing. Great daytime look with an interesting touch.
This is very accurate. I always knew that blending my eyeliner looks better on me, and now I know why :)
Over the last few years, I realized that conventional makeup techniques don’t work for my face. My basic makeup evolved to be: under eye concealer, lashes, _blended_ matte bronzer to my cheekbones and crease, brow mascara, thin matte dark brown liner to the upper eyelid corner, and a skin tone mauve lip. For night I would just layer thin black eyeliner on top. I was an accidental FN!
Anyone else feel like Flamboyant Natural and Theatrical Romantic tend to have similar faces but just a difference in size/delicacy? I’m theatrical romantic but I see a lot of similar eyes and cheek bones to mine on flamboyant naturals.
Omg yes. I’m a TR and I’ve always wanted to look like Paris Hilton who is a FN so I’ve tried copying her makeup but it looked heavy on me. Before I ever knew about Kibbe body types I did notice that there was a similarity in our faces and I even had someone else point it out to me too. Her face is sharp but also delicate yet broad. Idek if I described it right lmao but yes I know exactly what you mean.
I *think* I’m a TR, and my mum a FN. We do have some facial similarity.
Thank you!! I was thinking the same thing and I thought I was crazy lol. I'm a TR (I think) but my face looks a lot like naturals. And in test, I had mostly naturals answers for my facial features. Or maybe I have some type of N face on a TR body ?
I don't know if it's true or not.
The only similarity I see between them is recommended red lipstick as a frontal part of the makeup. But whereas TR make up should be glamourised, FN, apart from bold lips, is still quite natural and dewy.
Hahhh this video is a god-send. I have flamboyant natural bone structure with full lips, widely spaced eyes, kind of gamine-ish, with a prominent nose. I tend to look Lizza-Minelli-y-Cabaret-y with strong eyes, which doesn't flatter me at all. I started to think maybe I should use only dark brown, rather than black, to define my eyes, so it won't look 'heavy'. Your tip about blending makes sense. Thank you!
Great video! I usually use mat eyeshadows in natural colors (brown ang grey are fav). Blended, exactly like you said. When I use a liquid eyeliner without eyeshados it looks too sharp on photos. It's better to combine it with some blended eyeshadows. Gel eyeliner works much better and creates soft deep cat eyes. Love mat or satin lips with rounded lines. I contour my cheekbones and jaw/neck to make it look a little closer to oval classy. But not much and the product is not very dark. I have been loving shimmery face powder to add some nice sunkissed skin effect, but not too much.
FN here. Strong brows. Always.
I always go with strong eyes 👀 what helps me most is my skin (very) light color compared to my dark brown/black hair😆
Thanks for this. Contouring has always been confusing for me since my face is very thin and small. I never knew how to use contour to give wideness and volume.
Hello Aly, thank you very much again :). Your videos are great. I take an inspiration for day make up also from Gisele Bundchen, she is FN I think and not wearing a lot of make up. Do you think matt lipstick is better for FN than the shimmer? Or it more depends on oily/not oily skin of the person? I found out that if I use color from the lips and put a bit by fingers on my cheeks, it kind of 'wake up' my face. And give more harmony to the look. I wish you all the best! :)
Thank you for your channel, I have been enjoying it immensely. I think I am an FB and this video has tipped me even further toward that idea. My go-to is eyeliner: rich black but soft and the kind that sort of bleeds a bit into the eye area but after that, doesn't move. Something like Chanel, Urban Decay or Illamasqua. I am not me without this.
Your jacket 😍 It suits you so well !
Thank you!!
@@AlyArt have you considered doing a video about jackets, suits or blazers for the body types? I happen to have not flexible dress code for work and my roundness and smallish appareance doesn't really get along with those masculines cuts, lenghts, etc.
The hooded eye is really hard to explain shadowing on.....
I looked every video. But i still dont know if i am flamboyant natural or dramatic.😪
Is got the feeling that my body is dramatic but my face f.n.
I have thin lips, so I make them a tiny little bit bigger but with a natural color. Maybe some lipgloss. The focus are my almond eyes! I have green eyes, so I use brownish colors, but very very blendet. I tend to Makel them darker. Sometimes a Rose glitter tone on the middle and than nicely blendet into the brown. I'm trying out some eyeliner, and I think I like it (thin), but it's so much work.... bronzer, some blush and I'm ready :)
Im a FN, i have always loved 90s supermodel makeup. Its my fave and now i know why!
Aly, you look so beautiful always. But I do miss the way you used to style yourself, like the cute curly hair. It seems more youthful and flattering on you, and the softer makeup. I really think that you look so pretty in the soft looks. I love all your videos, I'm sorry to hear that you have been maligned by some of the strict people in the Kibbe community. Your videos help so many people. Not referring to you in this video, but your more recent ones and your other older videos. I love watching your makeup artist skills too. ❤❤
Love you, Aly Art. Do a skincare routine video please. ♥️
Thank you so much!!! I was worried about my makeup because I'm not an expert and I was searching for something that suit my facial structure well!!
Being an FN makes everything a little too complicated when looking for make up supplies because not everything is going to look well on me.
Thank you so much for this!!!! 💜
Intuitively I did the right thing
I think I finally figured out which one I am lol. Thanks for the info we need more beauty gurus like you. :D
Amazing, I am definitely flamboyant natural
Hi Aly, hope you are safe during this crazy covid situation, thanks for the video, been waiting for an entire FN video for a while now.
Definitely going to try some of the tips you gave, like thicker lashes. As for my makeup, I definitely have never tried that 80's look, I guess I'd be scared to stand out too much, so I always blend it in to look more natural.
Anyways, thanks so much for an all FN video Alyana, really appreciate it!! Take care and stay safe! 👋❤
I love my sharp jaw. I contour to make it look like I can cut glass.
Thank you. Loving this series.
I need new makeup When I was younger my face could handle some sparkle because my features are pretty yang but I think at 50 its aging me I need some solid matte colors and some way to make my skin look more dewy
I thought soft classic was next! Patiently waiting...😪it's ok tho i watch them all👀😍
Great work I still strungle to find witch type I am
I would love to see a series of video that give exemple of what type of body some famous are
For exemple a video "What type of body the characters of gossip girl have" or something like that ^^
Patiently waiting for theatrical romantic
Yes, I'm almost losing my patience😂
I think if she said in the first video "I will follow this order" we all would be more chilled 😂 this way she's doing we don't understand what's coming next and some people get disappointed.
It's ok, I think the videos for other body type are very useful too, I noticed for exemple that I used to do Soft Natural or Romantic makeup when I am a Soft Classic, which is not good. In the meantime, I learn what is good for Classic and Romantic and try to make a mix, as watching Soft classic celebrities makeup to see what I like on them and could be good on me.
I think you can look at Theatrical romantic celebrities makeup too to see what you like ? The romantic makeup video can be useful too but instead of those pastel, soft colors trying more bright ones ?
@@jasmeen5712 basically it's shimmer. But there are still some things we need to understand of course.
Maybe I'll try to use more eyeshadow, but if I do an eye look with any color on my lips I feel like my whole face is too overbearing and I need to wipe off my lipstick. So lately I've been using more lipstick with maybe one color of eye shadow blended around my eyes.
Aly Art, can you do a video on how to look like Selena Gomez
Ali, wedding dresses for the body types!!
Tr next please!!
Thank you for this!
I think my body is FN and my face SC, although I do tend to use some of these makeup techniques
Please show us your blending brushes and give time to really look at those !!!
hey i was wondering what piercing you feel will complement certain features and or face shapes. of course everyone should get whatever piercing the like but i feel just like how clothes and make up bring out certain features, the same logic could be applied to facial piercings. i am currently wondering if i should get an eyebrow piercing or a lip piercing and wanted to hear you input
I use only one eyeshadow/liner colour at a time (cool mattes, like the colour of a natural shadow, only slightly stronger, darker). More colours look too busy on me. If I emphasize my eyes I don't touch my brows because together it looks too harsh. I never wear bright lipsticks with sharp edges. I blend it a little bit. Lips OR eyes. Together it is too much, looks overdone.
Thx so much for sharing!😘
