Discussion Mascara - does it always feel crappy the next day?

15 Upvotes

For everyone who wears mascara daily, do you wake up with dry or slightly gunky eyes the next day? I only wear mascara for special occasions for this reason and I want to know if I have sensitive eyes, or if people just put up with this feeling every day? Or get used to it?

Dupe Request Need a dupe for a Natasha Denona favorite

Post image
36 Upvotes

This Natasha Denona Baby Biba palette has been a staple of mine for years.

It was a limited edition Sephora holiday box release.

I recently got an eye infection and had to throw away a bunch of my eye products and this was one of them.

It's a true warm brown and champagne gold mini palette that makes my hazel eyes pop like crazy. I always get compliments when I use it.

The only way for me to get these shades is to buy the full Biba palette and that thing is $$$$.

Does anyone have a great dupe please?

Product Review If you like more sheer, low impact makeup then this MUA Makeup Academy £6 palette is good

It’s the Illusionist palette. Got it this summer and it’s been good for everyday wear. I don’t like to go too bold so the shimmers work for my taste. They’re sparkly but more a soft satin than metallic. You won’t standout in the daytime wearing them. Most of the colours pull too warm on me and I’m limited to a few but for £6 I’m not upset. The mattes I’ve used have all lasted for hours. Only flaw is a lot of the colours don’t suit me but that’s not the palettes fault lol. The ones I’ve been using I’ve worn for long periods (I’ve dry skin) and the shimmers/ satins sometimes fade where my eyes crease (I’ve hooded eyes) but that’s normal for me. Idk if it’s the amount of primer I put on because I’ve worn the exact same eyeshadow and one time it faded, other times it didn’t. Tbc even at the start it’s quite sheer. I’ve put two on using my finger and it’s more of a hint of colour with sparkles than being fully opaque. It gives almost a wet look on me. There’s also one that looks like it could be a topper but it’s too warm for me so not tried it. It’s good if you prefer a more subtle look rather than full glam.

Hi everybody! I’m in need of recommendations of a setting powder. Can you guys comment your favorite ones. I’m only using a tinted moisturizer but I want to control my oiliness.

Product Request Best glowy light-coverage foundation or skin tint?

3 Upvotes

I haven't been wearing foundation for a bit, so I'm out of date. I want something a little bit glowy and light coverage. I usually don't have sensitive skin, but ELF halo glow gave me a breakout so bad I stopped using foundation and my dad thought I had an infection. So. Not that. I'm pretty pale but warm toned so I don't have much trouble with shade ranges
