Gabriela: #5 I love this makeup I love this makeup, it is also very colorful and the truth is that I am going to try to do it to wear it at carnival
regina: Be careful with some of the tribal painting. Make sure it's your own design instead of a culture painting. Otherwise 👍🏽
Hayley: I love Zoë Suggs festival makeup tutorial
Lunalaft: Yeah the headress is cultural appropriation :/ a feather is VERY sacred to Indian culture but cool makeup tips
Gabriela: I love this makeup, it is also very colorful and the truth is that I am going to try to do it to wear it at carnival
Taylor: Yeah, this whole festival makeup trend is super annoying
Alyx: Just be careful with tribal looking face paint - like the headress - it can be very offensive since it is sacred to a lot of people's religions and beliefs. Stay away from red, black and white since those are the colors mostly used, and you likely won't offend any cultures that way.
