Why would anyone mention that to her?

Courtney is very invested in her appearance. She notes she is bougie, so go do your thing girl.

 

I was not into the dark lip liner when I was living through the 90s in my 20s, and I am still not into that dark outline. I think it looks ridiculous, like when all SK wore was a nude lip that matched her skintone for  a lot of years (but she has grown into wearing a little more color now and it is nice to see!) But that is my opinion, I just prefer classic looks. I really enjoy makeup, but some people, especially hosts on QVC, overdo it and quite honestly they don't need all of that because they would be prettier without it.  I thought the hosts looked much better during Covid when the make up artists left, sans false eyelashes and incredibly dark eyeliner all around. 

 

I don't see hosts on HSN this overdone except for BRC. This is not judgement, I just think as a whole, women beat themselves up over the way we look and sometimes, less is definitely more.

I like Courtney a lot. Her mom owned a beauty school & she grew up in the industry. We wear what we like. She is a beautiful & sweet young woman & no matter what make up she prefers, she’s lovely & it’s her choice. I personally don’t wear any lip liner & never did & rarely wear lipstick. I see some really bad makeup jobs on QVC but Courtney is not one of them.

I dont wear any lip liners, I prefer tp use a lip conditioner or treatment balm instead, good for the lips and keep the feathering and bleeding away. I put it on my upper lip and just extend it slightly over it.

I can comment on anything I choose to but I would never think to tell someone to change something just because I don't like it.  To each their own...and that includes expressing an OPINION.

You’re entitled to your opinion, sure, but when that opinion targets someone’s looks, it stops being neutral and starts becoming judgment.

 

There’s a difference between sharing what you like and critiquing someone else’s choices.

I had to check the date on this thread.
It is like a deja vu. 🤔

@ajsidney12 Speaking of a nude lip, I thought Jen C. always wore that non-color, and I found myself talking to the TV saying, "You need a more colorful lipstick!"

Sorry but I totally disagree.  I am not judging,,,just saying I don't like dark lip liner. PERIOD.

I am not talking about Courtney. I am speaking to trends in general. If the trend doesn't flatter you don't do it. Wait for a trend that does look nice on you. The cat eye is big right now. On my eyes it would look awful while I love it on others. 

Wrong is still wrong just because you benefited from it.
