Walk up to someone and compliment them.

  • “I love your top!”
  • “Your eye shadow is so good!”
  • “Those shoes are so cute!”

If they respond enthusiastically (more than one word response, makes eye contact, smiles), ask them about it.

  • “Where did you get that?”
  • “What palette did you use?”
  • “What brand are those?”

If they still answer enthusiastically, congrats, you’ve started a conversation. Keep it going.

Edit: It’s also entirely possible you approach someone who’s shy/nervous and their responses might not qualify as enthusiastic. Personally, I risk being annoying if I’m talking to someone who seems to be alone, quiet, or shy. Keeping the convo going a little long gives them a chance to warm up to you.
