In this new series, I interview one of my internet mutuals about their makeup, fashion, or whatever cool, creative thing it is that they do. While some of them may consider themselves to be "influencers," many of them are everyday people who happen to have a skill and a hobby with a platform. However they self-identify, let's dig a little deeper into their creativity and style in "Mutually Creative."
The ultimate follower of fruit, the connoisseur of crimson, the obsessor of the orb with a passion for the produce: Madame @watermelonflesh herself.
We first "met" through a makeup Discord server about 4 years ago, close to when I had just gotten into makeup as a hobby. She was one of the people who inspired me to create the @glowymino account in the first place at the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic; just like @tastefulcringe, she's one of the few makeup people I also follow on my personal Instagram. She's seen me through my makeup growing pains, developing my Instagram/blog, and even multiple boyfriends. At the beginning of my account, we actually did a watermelon-themed makeup collab together. While people often describe makeup as a creative medium, her makeup looks are LITERALLY art. She legit draws/paints on her face using makeup, and she can get inspired by pretty much anything and everything and turn it into a museum-worthy masterpiece on her eyeballs. Her cut creases are impeccable; the precise liner work in her graphic looks could make a grown man weep. She also doesn't limit herself to just her eyes, often extending her canvas across her forehead, nose, cheeks, and lips. Via Discord DMs, I asked about her artistic journey, painting your flesh (AKA doing creative, unconventional makeup), and the climate of the beauty community across international social media platforms.

about @glowyminoI have dry skin and very dry and textured lips. I also have a medium-light skintone (somewhere in the realm of NC25-30) with strong warm yellow/olive undertones. I have a tendency to prefer a glowy, lightweight base and color cosmetics in shades of a warm undertone. Read more about me in the about page! Archives
