As titled! I find that my eye bags and the nasal folds are more prominent when looked at sideways rather than up front. Anyone think so? I don't think a specific makeup application can help with that?  |

It may cause by the direction of the light. |

I definitely agree with this. Shadows caused by the light direction can certainly help to highlight and exaggerate their appearance. |

I notice this too. I think when we look at ourselves in the mirror, we definitely get the best view.. |

So do u ladies actually try to apply makeup from the sideways point of view? For example, apply concealer to undereyes in a way that u can't see the slightest bags or circles sideways? I know I sound a bit extreme. But I can't help getting frustrated to see myself look fine up front in the mirror and then when I turned sideways, the flaws are there!  |

I also think it is the lighting. Some kind of shadows are falling on your face when you look at it from the side.
I think the key is to apply make up/foundation evenly and stay out of harsh lighting  |

Lighting the face from the side is supposed to be the least flattering. I guess if you look sideways the light is hitting the side of your face if you have your back to a window  |
