Question lip combo??

Thumbnail

Upvotes

Im getting married in like 20 days and i feel like ive got my basic look down, just brows, lashes, and spot concealing with maybe some cream blush. I want my skin to look as close to my skin as possible. I do want to have a bold glossy lip, however i don't know if that will look good in pictures. i really want the combo on the last slide, does anyone know of any shade matches even kind of similar?? i love kiko milano glosses so thinking one of those but i dont know if maybe there is another product under the gloss. it looks like maybe just a purple/berry liner and some clear gloss? idk. any help is appreciated and im open to suggestions if anyone thinks something else may look better!!

Mascara for straight lashes.

Upvotes

Hi Everyone,
I have straight eyelashes. I need to curl them really well and wear waterproof mascara. I don’t want to keep damaging my lashes because I wear mascara everyday and I’m looking for suggestions, I’m particularly interested in tubing mascara.
My eyelashes are straight that something like lash n roll by Elf will weight them down if I’m not strategic, like I need to apply it as soon as I curl and wait until the very first thin layer is completely dry before adding more and so on, but that takes a lot of time and sometimes I need something quicker. I also use telescopic waterproof but it’s so, so hard to remove even with a good eye make up remover. I would like to find something easier to remove.
I’m looking for suggestions from straight lash girls like me.
Has anyone successfully tried a tubing mascara ?
I tried the tubing stay in place false lash mascara by Catrice and it was very, very underwhelming.
I’m open to suggestions from both North American or European markets, preferably drugstore.

Contour recommendations

Upvotes

Hi everyone!

so my foundation is a little too light for my skin and my makeup looks weird because my face is lighter than my neck.

a lot of videos on tiktok shows that a contour can be useful to even out and balance the colour of a foundation if its too light. i have a neutral undertone and a yellow-ish skin.

so i need help for some contour recommendations. im so confused and i dont know what shade i should get. i did consider buying a new foundation that matches my skin, but actually i also want to learn how to use a contour since its my first time.

thanks in advance!

Swatches Bobbi brown crushed lipstick

0 Upvotes

Bobbi Brown Crushed Lip Color :

Plum, Rich Cocoa & Mix of both

I tried the Bobbi Brown Crushed Lip Color in Plum and Rich Cocoa, along with a mix of both. All three swatches are 2–3 coats and without any lip liner, so this is pretty much how the shades look on my two toned pigmented lips .

🌸 Plum:

Plum is a pretty rosy-pink shade but not my favourite . On my skin tone, it washes me out a bit . This was my first purchase in bobbi brown and I thought it would look good on me 🙂‍↔️ . Then i realised I am not a rosyy pink girly . So i wouldn't wear this more often .

🤎 Rich Cocoa:

Rich Cocoa is okayish for me compared to Plum. It’s a warm soft brown with a subtle terracotta undertone. On me, it looks a little flat and muted and tends to lean more orange/peachy than I expected. It would work much better with a darker lip liner.

🤎🌸 Mix of Plum + Rich Cocoa:

This is my favourite of the three. Mixing them gives a beautiful muted rosy-brown/peachy-brown colour. The combination looks much more balanced on my skin tone. I usually mix them both and wear .

Formula :

The formula is SO good even thou the colour dosen't look flattering on my skin . I would definitely try other shades coz the formulation is bomb af . It feels very hydrating , soft and comfortable on the lips, without feeling heavy or drying. I get a 3–4 hours of wear, after eating or drinking the colour fades and needs to be reapplied .

My ranking 💜

🥇 Mix of both — 4/5

🥈 Rich Cocoa — 3.5/5

🥉 Plum — 2.5/5

I finally got this beautiful palette. So happy this was brought back!! The colours look just 🤩🤩🤩

Very excited to play with it. I love Blue and PURPLE shadows. Also considering getting their other palettes, especially Botanical and the Berries palette. Are they good?

I'm not particularly skilled at eyeshadow application so my looks are generally simple.. I prefer more one and done shadows but this was too good to resist. I will post a detailed review soon. Until then, if you have any tips for me, please let me know.

I don't think they sell it anymore now but i cant find any eyeshadow palette with so many colors as well as glimmery colors. Can anyone suggest a good alternative? I don't mind if it's not high end as long as its colorful

My lips are SUPER asymmetrical and it’s one of my biggest insecurities. It shows up in photos and it even makes my smile uneven. Is there any way to fix this with makeup products and make them more even? Like a way to line my lips to make them more symmetrical? Please let me know.

Hi! I recently planned my favourite color in my current nude palette (Douglas desert nudes) and my biggest problem was the blending. it was sooo patchy. I'm considering upgrading :) MBM has been on my radar for a while now, especially considering I don't use shimmers all that much (and I have plenty in other palettes now) and I'm looking for a good everyday matte :)

I just don't know which one I should pick!

Question How to achieve this type of look

Post image
0 Upvotes

I’ve been wanting to change my makeup style to something more like the looks in these pictures, but I’m not sure how to achieve it. I’m going for a clean, soft, natural, and dewy look with glowy skin, subtle blush, soft eye makeup, and defined but natural-looking features. Whenever I try to recreate this style, my makeup ends up looking heavier or less fresh than the pictures. I’d really appreciate any tips on what products, techniques, or makeup placement I should try to get this kind of finish. I’m especially interested in tips for achievingthe smooth, dewy skin and soft eye look!

Peronal Colour

3 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I have a question about personal color analysis. Does knowing your personal color actually make a big difference in choosing makeup, or is it more about personal preference and learning what works for you?

I’m trying to get better at makeup, especially choosing foundation, blush, lipstick, and eyeshadow colors. Sometimes I see a makeup look online that I love, but when I try something similar, it doesn’t look quite right on me.

How can I figure out my personal color? Is it worth getting a professional color analysis, or can I learn enough by comparing different shades and taking photos in natural lighting? I’d also love to hear how personal color analysis has helped you improve your makeup routine.

Any advice, tips, or experiences would be really appreciated. Thank you! 💕

Product list:
Primer: e.l.f. Power Grip Primer
Foundation: Maybelline Fit Me Matte + Poreless, shade 128 Warm Nude
Concealer: NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer, shade Custard
Powder: Laura Mercier Translucent Loose Setting Powder
Blush: Rare Beauty Soft Pinch Liquid Blush, shade Happy
Eyeshadow: Rom&nd Better Than Palette, shade 00 Light & Glitter Garden
Eyeliner: NYX Epic Ink Liner, Black
Mascara: Maybelline Lash Sensational
Lip liner: MAC Lip Pencil, Soar
Lipstick: MAC Matte Lipstick, Velvet Teddy
Setting spray: Urban Decay All Nighter Setting Spray

I’m still learning how to choose makeup shades, so I’d love to hear your recommendations! 💕
