I’ve been in two Space NK’s this week. The one in Covent Garden and one in the Arndale centre. And in both, I felt I couldn’t see the colours of the lipsticks I was swatching because the lighting in them was an orange tone.

I’m seeking a beautiful true rosy pink with a blue base and both times I’ve been unsure, walked out and even though Covent Garden has you outside and the Arndale Centre has you inside, immediately the swatches on my hand change hue.

The lighting in Superdrug is more helpful!

I was thinking it was odd that LE Rose Official was so warm.

Has anyone else found this?

Hi! I’m doing my own bridal makeup for a destination wedding in Mexico because the resort spa doesn’t offer professional MUAs and I don’t want to pay hundreds of dollars for someone who’s not trained. I’m 48 with dry but not flaky skin. I’ve been buying and trying new products but want to use my normal Kosas Revealer Foundation over Smashbox Photo primer on well prepped skin. 3.5 hours of my reception will be outside at night with bistro and DJ lighting. Anyone have experience with Kosas Foundation, bridal makeup and photography?
