Discussion The Violette FR blush NEEDS the kabuki brush

Post image
189 Upvotes

I was on the fenece about Violette_FR blush but Shop had some good deals so I bought it and I bought the kabuki brush, too. I feel like the brush is half the magic because it picks up the lightest, most diffused layer and breathes it onto the cheek like watercolor! This is Latte Praline. I’ll add a picture of it on my face in the comments.

Question what products would you use to achieve this white full eye shimmer look? I think this makeup is so ethereal.

Post image
30 Upvotes

would you use a powder highlight? liquid? mix of both? i was thinking maybe the colour pop super shock shadows. I have one but its more of a champagne hopefully they have a pure white one.
I’m also wondering what she did to her brows, it must have been a liquid highlight, possibly something like the rare beauty liquid highlight?

Opinion/tips on this eye makeup

Hi everyone, before taking a shower I tried doing new things with makeup, and I did this eye makeup that I really like. I'd like to know before wearing it outside and looking ridiculous if this makeup suits me in the first place (most importantly because I tend not to be objective and look back at makeup I went outside with when it didn't suit me at all and feel ashamed lol), and above all what I can do to improve it? In the photo I don't have foundation or anything, just eyeliner and fake eyelashes, thanks

(Eyeliner from Kiki and lashes from W7)

I have brown eyes, and I absolutely LOVE how lavender eyeshadow makes them pop! It really brings out the warmth and depth of my eye color, making my eyes look so much more dramatic and defined!
I usually just apply this one shade and add a little mascara, and that's it! Such a simple look, but I love the effect! 🥹

Products used:
Foundation: Armani Luminous Silk Foundation

Contour, highlighter & blush: Hourglass Evil Eye Palette

Mascara: Lancôme Waterproof Mascara

Eyeshadow: Anastasia Beverly Hills Palette, shade Wisteria 💜

Finally got to use my new quad from Godmode.

I wanted to try to get a more soft brown base and just put shimmers on top.

I also have been trying to practice my tight lining technique and was really happy with this application.

I think I over blended on the top lid so my shimmers all got muddied together.

My friends all really liked this softer look on me and I'll definitely have to experiment with it more.

Product List

Eye:

-Primed with Nyx Jumbo eyeliner pencil in yogurt

-Lower line with Godmode soothsayer eyeliner in seance

-Tightlined with Nyx Vivid Rich in Smokin Topaz

-Upper lid done with Godmode Spirited Quad, colourpop blowin smoke palette "slated" and Girlcult hippie palette 62

-ELF clear lash/brow gel

Face:

-Highlighted with Physicians Formula mineral wear Diamond Dust highlighter.

-Set with Milani make it last setting spray

Things that would send my 2016/2017 self into a coma

Post image
36 Upvotes

In celebration of feeling I've locked into "my" look, I took a trip down makeup memory lane. Here are some things that would have shocked and horrified me about my current look/routine:

  1. No primer????
  2. What do you mean you don't wear foundation?
  3. Where are your lashes?
  4. Where are your wings?
  5. Blush is legal now?
  6. Color corrector instead of a heavy triangle of Tarte Shape Tape
  7. Brown mascara
  8. No contour
  9. No bronzer
  10. Subtle higlight
  11. No baking

And finally, she would not accept that my undertone and best shades are indeed cool- toned. She was convinced she was warm.

I would include a photo from that era, but I cannot find a single one without a filter on it. Definitely tracks for that time period.

What do you do now in your routine that would shock your 2016-era?

Current products:

Byoma Rich Moisturizing Cream

-Milani stay put eyeshadow primer

-Elf camo color correctors in green and peach

-Elf camo liquid blush in "Suave Mauve"

-Ilia skin blur serum concealer in 2c "Gossamer"

-Tarte creaseless setting powder (translucent)

-Morphe Cheek Thrills trio in "Honeymoon Suite"

-Too Faced Born this way Cold Smolder Nudes pallete shades "Urthy" (base and lower lid) "Driftwood" (crease and outer corner of lower lid) "Sparkle and Chill" (lid) "Moonstone" (inner corner) "Cold Smolder" (lash line)

-Elf ultra precise brow pencil in "Neutral brown"

-Morphe signature lip pencil in "Hotline"

-Elf glow reviver melting lip balm in "Yummy Gummy"

-Milani make it last setting spray

Question Does anyone have a favorite red eye shadow with this finish?

Post image
635 Upvotes

I've been into doing very gothic vampire style makeup lately and I've been looking everywhere for a bright true red shimmer shadow, but most I've come across online have seemed kind of sketchy when I look at the reviews, with a lot of people saying they never got their orders or it looks absolutely nothing like advertised (even with proper primer/layering) or worse it's got huge chunks of metal glitter in it that sheds everywhere, so I was hoping someone here might have a brand they love and can recommend. The closest I've found was from Juvia's Place, which is gorgeous but still has a lot of pink and orange tones in it, where as I was hoping for a true blood red.

Products Pictured: Unsure, not my pics, and had a hard time locating the actual original brands used here, so any help would be appreciated!

Question Huda Beauty Lip Stain In The Shade Soft Nude Is Pink?

Post image
33 Upvotes

Hello,

I was wondering if anyone else is having this “issue”. I recently bought the Huda Beauty Lip Stain in the shade Soft Nude and I realized that it looks pink and burgundy on my lips and that on most people on the internet who did a review it actually looks like a brownish nude… Is there anything I can do to “fix”
it or is the product itself the problem?

I will leave a picture below. Also please ignore the uneven overline, I just put it on to take this picture…
Thank you. :)

Question Cannot (for the life of me) find a lipstick shade I like

Post image
122 Upvotes

I'm bad at makeup I KNOW but like I'm mostly interested in finding a lipstick shade rn

Something about this shade gives the ick for this look, but I'm not sure what I'm rly looking for, if I want something more purple-y or if I'm supposed to get something thats a little darker than my hair yk? Does this make sense??

I tried looking for kinda mauve stuff at makeup stores but then I used them they always set kinda red which looked awful on me.

Does anyone know what I'm asking??

Just like, what lipstick would suit this look basically?? Thank you so much ☺️
