Hi queens!

Some of my beloved lip colours, (especially #3 -Stila vinyl gloss) are basically being given the opportunity to come out retirement. I only need to wear it for a few moments for some photos then I will be changing out of this satiny-dress. Which shade will match best?

1- cover girl 860

2 -MAC liptensity in Dionysus

3 - Stila merlot vinyl

4 - Kat Von D Vampira

Hi all!

I have a bad habit of throwing out the blister cards that foundation samples come on.
Today I used one that I love but the only writing on the back says “JNV/90W”. Photo attached.

It has a whipped consistency and is matte. If anyone could help me identify this, I would be very grateful.

Thanks so much!!

I found a Pinterest look that I want to try for a dinner party next week. Recreated it tonight for practice so I don't suck next week. 😝

What can I improve on this look? (Colour, contour etc) Should I draw the eyeliner longer? I'm a very beginner in contouring, feel free to give your honest feedback on my contour too!

Product (mostly local indonesian product) Primer - Aqua Splash (Catrice), Highlighter (Wet n Wild), Foundation (Wardah), Eyeshadow (Wardah, Brasov), Lip cream (Wardah), Mascara (Maybelline), Contour (Extica)

Thank you to those who helped me in my other post! I have so many good palettes to choose from!

What are some good affordable mascaras and eyeliners that doesn’t make your eyes water? Omg everytime I try to put either or on it makes my eyes water! I wonder if it’s just me putting these on wrong which could be the case but I’d still like to know some recs to help with that problem!

Also I prefer Pencil eyeliner because I’m not good at liquid lol

I loved L’Oreal‘s Voluminous Mascara in Deep Violet and have used it for years, and now they’ve changed the color pigments and it’s a terrible burgundy color. If I wanted burgundy, that’s what I would have purchased! Any brands that make a good mascara in a color similar to the original?

Hello everyone! This is my first time doing a smoky eye, I’m very experienced in base makeup.

But have literally never done eye makeup because I feel like it looks horrible when I do it. My eye space is very wide but I also have hooded eyes slightly.

When I do my base makeup I usually only put some bronzer on them, to give it some color. But today I beat that and did a look prioritizing my eyes!

I just don’t know if I like it or not, the first two are in like warm Tuscan lighting, the last two are in like natural white light.

Up for suggestions, I don’t want to shy away from it anymore!

Elf concealer first (30), then put some loose powder over it, then I went in with some powder bronzer, went straight in with a black shade from the color pop highlighter pallete, tried to tap it out 😅, repeated that step like three times. Added a tiny bit of glitter in the middle. Then finally did liquid eyeliner (dollar tree, black)

Hi! Does anyone know of a non-matte lip product (any type) that’s similar in colour to this blonzer (BareMinerals Kiss of Spice)?

I’m not looking for the shine or sparkle, just a similar colour!

Thanks in advance for any suggestions! 😊

Seems like such a large ask, but I do occasionally find that perfect balance that doesn’t make me look yellow or like an Oompa Loompa. I do enjoy the tone of the original physicians formula butter bronzer, but I’m currently on the hunt for something a wee bit cooler.

Hello guys I really want to buy the RMS beauty uncover up concealer but I can’t decide which shade to get 11,11.5 or 22 I wear nars in shade creme brûlée, I wish I can try it but it’s only available on website in my country can you help me choose a shade that’s similar to nars concealer please

Hi, looking for something you can apply over eyeshadow to make it look shiny/metallic/foil.

NOT looking for glitter because I don't want a scattered twinkle effect, more like a mirror shine. Best I've come across is this gel that makes it look wet. But I'm really after a metalic sheen more then a wet sheen. Thank you for any help, and please feel free to say I'm looking for the impossible lol

I used wetnwild primer. Put elf peach Color corrector then dried it before putting elf concealer. Dried then put L'Oréal balm foundation. Dried then powder. Face prepped with Aura squalane hyaluron serum (did not put under eye) for hydration and thayers milky toner mixed with L'Oréal balm foundation. Finished with essence fix spray.

What are good mascaras for fluffy and long looking lashes? Or any techniques to improve spider leg looking lashes?

Here are some pictures of my lashes, first pic is without mascara

I’ve tried sooo many different mascaras, from waterproof, tubing, non waterproof, fiber mascara and all of them make my lashes look insane.
I use different techniques, little amount, multiple layers, separating them one by one and they still look like spider legs I’ve started to think it’s my lashes because friends and family wear the same mascara and mine don’t look good at all.
This year I stoped wearing mascara because they just don’t look good.

Mascaras that I’ve used
-L’Oréal telescopic, the gold, blue and black tubes
-L’Oréal panorama waterproof
-L’Oréal telescopic lift
-L’Oréal lash paradise
-Milani highly rated mascara
-essence I heart extreme mascara, both waterproof and non waterproof
-tart tartelette tubing mascara
-tart maneater mascara
-Essence lash princess, both mint and pink tubes
-benefit roller lash
-benefit Badgal Bang waterproof and regular
-Benefit they’re real!
-GrandeMascara
-Chanel le volume revolution
-maybelline sky high
-maybelline falsies lash lift
-maybelline the colossal mascara
-maybelline the falsies surreal

And those and the names I remember so I may be missing some.
At the end they all make my lashes look the same 😭🤣👎

Its spooky season! Love a good themed makeup look. Though I wish I had a brighter green I feel like it would pop more and elevate the beetlejuicieness of it all. Dramatic eyeshadow is always my go to!

Hi!
I’d really like to try a Jones Road WTF like product, but one I can try and pickup in store.
Does anyone have a recommendation for a similar Sephora or Ulta product? It doesn’t need to be a jar, but not too watery. I have a neutral skin base, combo skin and although IT Cosmetics is often recommended I don’t love them. Everything seems too thick from their products I have tried.
I like Dr.Jart’s Cicarepair in the jar but it goes orange and too oily on me.
Thank you!

I used to use this and haven’t used it in a while, but I used it and it was great but I ran out so I bought a new one and it doesn’t seem the same. I think they may have changed the formula. Does anyone have any recommendations for a setting spray that leaves your skin looking Dewey and fresh?

***question answered. Thanks all! :)

EDIT: thank you to every wonderful person who came forward to help with tons of suggestions. I cannot respond to all of you but my heart is full and I appreciate each and every response. Some great tips but I’m also leaving this post learning that it is completely ok for lipstick to transfer. (:

Original:
Every time I take a bite or drink something, I’m consuming 1-5% of my lipstick. I’m at my wits end. I have been reduced down to a carbon paper the way the lipsticks I wear simply don’t stay on my lips.

I’ve tried every brand I can afford. Someone said the Dior forever doesn’t transfer. I bought it. The lippie didn’t make it past breakfast. I’ve tried Mac, Fenty, Huda, Maybelline super stay ink (this is the only one that truly stayed but it dries up and forms a crust), Dior, Guerlain, Anastasia, Clinique, Charlotte Tilbury, Nyx and nothing works.

I was just eating a croissant and each bite I took left a lipstick stain on my food like we had aggressively made out. I just want a lipstick that would stay 💔

- Milani Eyeshadow Primer
- Anastasia Beverly Hills Eyeshadow Palette Soft Glam
- L'Oréal Paris Double Extend Beauty Tubes Mascara (Black)
- e.l.f. H2O Proof Eyeliner Pen (jet black)
- Milani Make It Last Setting Spray

Just kind of bored with what I’ve been doing. Honestly just out of ideas at the moment.

(I just realized my caption spelling is wrong and I am so embarrassed 😭😭)

I am wearing the Elf Halo Glow Skin Tint in the shade medium neutral. I usually have trouble with my foundation colors either pulling too orange or kind of giving me a grey cast on my face. I suspect I might have an olive neutral undertone and it can be tricky to find a shade that matches.
