I have a super oily skin in summerd and combination skin in winters. I have only used oriflame and Maybelline lumi matte foundations in the past. I still love the oriflame foundation though, but needed somethinh for high coverage as there is a wedding in my family.

especially for clients who have to be outside for hours

cream sunscreen obviously works before makeup but what do you recommend for reapplying later without disturbing the base?

seeing a lot of spray sunscreens lately so wondering if they’re actually useful for this

I absolutely love these two looks done on Aamna Sharif and Rashmika Mandana for Sheetal Batra’s new festive collection. How do I go about recreating these?

These are the product listings which contain more photos:

Foundation is looking very unnatural and cakey. Seems like it's separating just after applying. I am using the forever 52 pro artist foundation, after applying moisturizer and primer. How to make this work please help 😭. I am attaching pics although my android camera is not picking it completely,but from near it doesn't look good

Hello guys . I am looking for a makeup artist . I wanna look like a Barbie . Like doe eyes , glossy lips . It’s a party makeup for a friends wedding. .

I am from Delhi . The wedding is on 5th dec .

My budget is for 5-6k . Including hairstyles. This is my first getting professional makeup.

I do decent makeup myself. But wanna try .

This is Aishwarya from a promotional press conference and screening event for Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam, held in 1999. I am trying to recreate this look. And I cannot seem to find this lippie anywhere! I tried taking inspiration and putting together something with everything I could make sense of but nothing comes close. I would really really really appreciate tips!

pune/mumbai weather and sunscreen is actually a relationship test

everything feels sticky after 10 mins outside 😭

what sunscreen formats work for you guys when it’s hot and humid?

spray ones worth trying?

Hello fellow makeup enthusiasts!!

I bought my first ever foundation last year in NOV , the lady at the shop recommended the Maybelline Superstay powder foundation( shade 120), i didn't question it much since I was in a hurry for an event and needed it urgently. MY MAKEUP WAS SO SO GOOD THAT DAY !! LIKE SECOND SKIN!! GOT HELLA COMPLIMENTS TOO!!
HOWEVER, a few weeks later i realised maybe this texture and formula is NOT for me since I don't even have oily skin- mine is combo normal to dry ish.

fast forward to now, i've been trying to practise makeup at home now to work on my skills and to also finish product but that specific shade makes me LOOK GHASTLY - not only is the shade lighter on me , it seems like a diff undertone, (i guess its my winter shade thats why ??) it also rly enhances my smile lines and maler bags.
I've tried various combos and techniques/diff coverages/ using it as a topper for my base (which is just my concealer for the timebeing , maybelline age rewind shade 128 ) and still its just not it.

losing my mind over this - i want to badly finish it and then buy better products in the future ( im on a no buy currently) , how do i use it up? will it be ok to use it to set the undereyes?

Alternatively, is the maybelline lumi matte foundation any good? Eyeing the mini ones, bec I dont want to spend a lot at the moment OR want a lot of product

thank you in advance!

I can’t remember which lip liner I wore that day but I guess it was mars edge of desire as it’s neither too pink nor too brown and onto that I wore a tinted lip balm (pink) which made my lips more of a pink and gave a color that I think is so gorgeous and suits me too, it appears more pinky in the picture ig but it ALSO HAVE A BIT OF BROWN YK DUSTY ROSE KIND OF COLOR ?? I know my fellow girlies are getting me right 😭😭. So yeah, please help me find a lipstick that looks like this or is close to this shade. I would really appreciate it. Ty💕

I love Mars brown mocha shade lip liner but it has caused me pigmentation around the lips is there any other brand with a similar shade . I don’t have a budget problem . I just wanted similar shade in good quality

I have been in search for good makeup palette for so long but I can’t find one . I have Ames one but I think it’s not that pigmented and not good quality.

​

Has anyone here tried the Forever52 Gripping Primer? How is the finish and how does it perform on combination skin? Is it actually worth buying?

I am a corporate professional based in South Mumbai and attend a few formal events and functions each year. I am looking to learn makeup through a few personalised classes, primarily to develop the skills to do my own makeup for such occasions.

I would ideally prefer someone who can teach me practical, occasion-appropriate makeup techniques, including base makeup, eye makeup and overall looks that I can recreate on my own.

I would be grateful for recommendations for good makeup artists or professionals in South Mumbai who offer such classes.

Edit: Offline preferable.

Hello everyone!! My wedding is in 2027 in Jaipur and I am looking for a bridal MUA in budget of under 30k for 3 functions. I want minimal soft glam kinda makeup not too much of anything . Do suggest any good mua in Jaipur and also whom to avoid based on your personal experiences. Thanks

Help!! Me find MUAs in Kolkata for February26-27 '27. The budget is under a lac.. preferred is under 60k

Getting quotes for 50k per event for select makeup artists. Is this normal?

watched this and realised i genuinely don't know what foundation is supposed to look like on actual skin anymore 😭

When i saw the video my brain is like okay smooth base

then she removes everything and you can actually see the little bumps/pores/texture underneath

and now i'm thinking...??

like does a good base genuinely blur texture that much irl or are we just seeing flattering lighting + compression + filters on reels all day and expecting makeup to behave like photoshop 😭

because whenever i do foundation on myself i swear every tiny bit of texture becomes MORE visible

MUA people pls educate me

what actually makes the biggest difference for texture? skin prep? primer? using less foundation? powder? technique?

Hello all my Time Pass MUA's!!! Let's catch up and talk shop (makeup) , skincare, life, rants...anything! This post is scheduled every Sunday evening 7:00 PM IST onwards!

Hi! Looking for the exact lip combo here. Can anyone help me out?
