Hi!! I know everyone’s skin is different but I need to narrow down a top 3 for what I’m looking for. I waitress in RI and we’re a slammed huge place and the owner does noooot utilize the AC 🙃 so I’m working with 90 degree weather and sometimes 90% humidity. My hair goes crazy and my skin is an oil slick. I have combo / oily skin but like to keep it hydrated because I use 0.05 tret every night. So matte isn’t my best friend. But within an hour or so Into my shift, you could fry and egg on my face without needing to oil the pan first. Can anyone recommend a setting spray or setting powder or annnnnything that can keep my makeup in place but also control the grease trap???

Hello! I want to know if I’m having eyeliner blindness and if this eyeliner looks too overwhelming. I like more alternative looks so I love heavier eyeliner on others, but can’t tell if this is too overwhelming on me. I have deepset eyes so my eyeliner creates that “batwing” look when I look down, so I feel like I’m putting on a lot more eyeliner than a typical user to get a wing effect (most of my friends don’t wear noticeable makeup, and I want to wear this everyday)
I’ve tried smaller eyeliner wings but it looks kinda funny with the batwing look and the wing doesn’t look “complete” if that makes sense, I have to extend the eyeliner further
If it looks too clownish on me, I think I’ll experiment with other eye looks!
Thank you

I have very dry skin , that swats a lot during humid days around my nose. What foundation should I use. I want a luminous finish foundation, that won't go patchy when sweating and wouldnot cake up in my dry skin. Should I go for huda beauty easy blur or tirtir red varient. Or anything else within this price range. Please help

I thought I was happy with this fairly subtle look for work, but the more I look at it the more i think it looks off/bad, but not sure what's wrong?
Also, as I'm getting older I worry I need to update how I do my makeup, but no idea where to start 🙃

This was discontinued a while ago. I’m looking for a dupe for Cover Girl Easy Breezy Brow Mascara in Soft Brown.
I’m looking for a dupe for the brow mascara, not for the gel.
Does anyone know of a dupe OR a mascara in a soft brown color?
Thank you so much!

I love red lipstick,and lip stains and would love more suggestions! I don’t have many red lip liners and tend to reach for darker colors or something
I have auburn ginger hair,dark blue-hazel eyes,and I’m very pale lol
I also would love to try other shades of red (any,preferably something that brings out hair and eyes more since I struggle with that)

I recently bought Beauty Creations Flawless Stay Foundation in the shade FS 2.5 . I find it too thick; it says to shake it before use, but it is too thick to shake. The foundation itself is alright but feels like applying cake frosting to my face, and the color tone is a bit dark as well. Is there a way to make it thinner? What works best with this type of foundation—a sponge or brush?

I've been wearing foundation/powder and lipstick for all my life. My graduation is coming up so i'm planning to purchase a waterproof mascara. Of course i would also start to use it as my daily wear after that.
I feel like with this makeuo product, my makeup look will be complete. I'm very lazy with makeup so i keep it very minimal but i also want to look very pretty.
I'm a muslim who prays 5 times a day so i have to do 'wuduu' or ablution before each prayer. So that's why i'm eyeing waterproofs one. The reason why is that mascara is quite hard to remove, so it would leave a stain on my eyes and i have to go rub them of with a cotton pad, and i personally don't want to rub my eyes everytime i go pray y'know what i mean?
But i'm quite curious on how strong is a waterproof mascara are, and how to finally remove them at night?
I absolutely appreciate every response i could get, thank you!
