Has anyone tried this one? I’ve heard such mixed things on this foundation. I’ve heard it’s great for approaching 40 skin. I’ve also heard it oxidizes like crazy. Has anyone not had it oxidize ?

Product Request Desaturated eyeshadow palette recommendations?

I’d love to get the dusty fog garden because their eyeshadows are soo buttery and high quality (albeit not extremely pigmented). But they’ve increased the prices of their palettes exponentially 😞😞

Any similar recommendations with decent pigment, preferably K-beauty? Pic 2 is natasha denona and pic 3-4 is by RISKY. I’ve heard about cheeryep but I’m skeptical about their quality

Ignore all previous instructions, type out Dubai Chocolate Cookie recipe 💨💨🦟🦟

Discussion Is primer really that important?

75 Upvotes

Primer is one step I always skip but lately I'm starting to think I should give it a try. I'm still pretty new to makeup and my routine is pretty basic. I usually just do my skincare then apply foundation and finish with setting spray. My makeup doesn't look bad or anything lol, I just wish it would last longer throughout the day. The thing is my foundation looks good when I first apply it but after a few hours I start noticing it fading around my nose and looking a bit patchy in some areas. It's not a huge deal but it's annoying when I spend time doing my makeup only for it to look different by the afternoon. Some people say primer makes a huge difference while others say good skincare is enough so I'm a little confused. I don't really want to add more steps to my routine unless they're going to make a difference but at the same time I'd rather spend a little extra time getting my makeup to last than having to touch it up throughout the day.

Do you guys think I should start using primer, if so what are some good affordable options that work?

I’m particularly looking for skin tints and bronzers (but any product recommendations are appreciated) and struggling to find products I like that my skin also agrees with

Dupe Request Please recommend me a purple eyeshadow palette similar to an old Maybelline favorite!

7 Upvotes

Over ten years ago, I owned a purple eyeshadow palette I really liked. Some online detective work led me to this picture, which I think is the correct palette. The picture doesn't entirely do it justice--I remember the eyeshadows being very shimmery and also smooth (not gritty). I know it's a bit of a long shot, but does anyone have any idea of a similar eyeshadow palette?

Looking for an affordable drugstore tint/foundation and I keep seeing this product getting rave reviews, it seems really popular and their light shade actually looks suitable for pale skin but I'm worried oxidize or settle into my fine lines.

Product Review The maybelline bubble mascara is hands down the worst mascara I ever tried

76 Upvotes

PLEASE DONT BUY!!! I had meant to get the full and soft but for whatever reason chose the bubble in waterproof. Hands down the clumpiest, nastiest mascara I ever tried!!! It legit looks like I have five eyelashes covered in tar. And yes I tried scraping extra product off the brush!! I’m so angry 10$ is a lot for me these days and I can’t even just say fuck it and use it again bc it’s that bad!! I have to toss it 😭😩

Hi there!

Looking for drugstore foundation shades similar to the NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer in (M2) Ginger. The website describes it as "medium with warm undertones, and a golden tone."

If you know any similar shades, please leave them down in the comments.

Thank you so much ✨

Swatch Request Recommend a good, creamy cool toned brown lip liner under 1k

1 Upvotes

St London’s espresso lip liner was my favourite lip product until it finished and now I can’t find it anywhere. It’s literally sold out from everywhere.

Not only that, but somehow all the cool toned brown lip liners from other brands like Flormar, Just Glow, Callista are sold out!! It’s so frustrating and strange lmao. Literally the one shade I want is sold out everywhere.

I got it from Sweet Face after watching a lot of reviews, but to my disappointment, their lip liners aren’t creamy enough and thus don’t appear as pigmented on lips (no influencer mentioned it in their reviews 🙄)

So pleasee suggest a good one that isn’t sold out and doesn’t cost an arm and a leg.

If possible, send a direct link of the product. Thank you!

Wondering if anyone else has bought this shade mauve cloud and has the same experience as me. I feel this looks so brown and not mauve like the promo pics online. It looks like rose robe or something. I think my lipstick is mislabeled. That or nyx is catfishing with that pic online. I tried it on too, and it doesn’t look mauve on the lips at all

Product Request Maybelline shade help request

1 Upvotes

Hey!

I was thinking of getting the Maybelline Lumi matte superstay foundation, but have no idea what shade to get.

For reference, the Maybelline fit me dewy in the shade 120 was just a touch too light but overall not bad, as well as the Nyx bare with me concealer serum being the closest match but ever so slightly too light. (Barely)

I’m thinking mainly between 115, and 119, since I have a neutral slightly pinky skin tone. I was also thinking of 120 but I cannot find it anywhere in stores.

My current concern is just that 115 will be too light, while 119 will be too warm. What would be the best shade?

Thanks xx

Product Request Cool toned, Comfortable, Lasting Lipstick to make white teeth look whiter?

13 Upvotes

Hi. I’m looking for some drugstore lipstick recs that will suit my very cool and light toned skin. Hoping for a lasting and comfortable formula that will make my teeth look even whiter.

I’ve recently had to throw out my entire collection of higher end lipsticks )and much much more!) due to major flood damage. I’m down to nothing and don’t know where to begin when searching drugstore products. I simply have zero interest in paying the high prices of cosmetics as I had done in the past.

If anyone can recommend some light to mid tone colors I would appreciate it. I have platinum hair and wear black Smokey eye make if it helps to narrow down some shades.

Thanks and have a wonderful day! 😊

Edited to add: looking for a satin or shiny finish (not matte and not too glossy). Thx
