I’m not seeing a ton of feedback- thoughts on texture, longevity and color payout?

I’m looking for a new medium - full (ish) foundation. I think my list of requirements is a little crazy but I’m hoping someone out there has my HG recommendation!

* medium buildable coverage (I have redness from mild rosacea)
* dehydrated skin friendly
* I’m acne prone so able to deal with texture
* satin finish
* pale skin friendly - scared of oxidation!
* actually dries down, I hate the feel of sticky foundation on my skin 🥲

Thanks in advance!

I fell in love the staying power of EL Double Wear in the humid summer temps, but with the cooler, dryer weather, it’s looking ashy on me. I always use elf primer and O/S setting spray.

Should I use a different primer/setting spray?

Or is there something similar, but better for winter weather?

I’m a light to light medium neutral girlie and looking to invest in a new cool/neutral toned contour. I’m torn between the ABH contour in shade greyscale or halftone, the Fenty contour in shade amber or the Dior contour in shade 01 Light. I want something that mimics the natural shadow blends well and doesn’t look muddy.
Curious to hear your thoughts if you’ve tried these x

For some reason I can’t get my makeup to look natural or glossy. It always looks cakey and dry. I’ve tried 3 different bases/primers. Maybelline grippy primer, Maybelline fit me sunscreen primer and wet n wild impossible primer. Literally nothing works.

I use byoma cleanser first then the proactiv set (all 3 products) before putting on make up to make sure my face is nice and moisturized.

I do also use setting powder and setting spray which I know the powder could be contributing, but the issue was also persistent before I started using the powder. Just the spray wasn’t doing anything.

By hour two of having my make up on, I have really bad smile lines and it just looks dry. And when I’m at work I can’t must go hydrate throughout the day.

I don’t have really dry skin and I don’t sweat a lot during the day, so i literally don’t know what I’m doing wrong.

I notice most cool toned people gravitate toward bronze and gold shadows . And bronzers etc

Hey everyone!

Looking for some loose powder recommendations. I have deep neutral to olive skin.

I finally found my perfect concealer match, but I'm dealing with this annoying issue: every time I set it, the powder completely changes the color. White/translucent powders tend to look ashy on me, and I definitely want to avoid anything with an orange or strong yellow undertone, yellow just really doesn't look flattering on me.

I need something super finely milled and sheer. I mostly use it to set my under-eyes and around my mouth. Since the mouth area moves a lot, I need a powder that actually holds up and won't crease or separate during the day.

Also, I'm based in France, so I'd love recommendations for products I can easily get my hands on over here

Any favorite powders that lock everything in without messing up the color underneath?

Thanks!

Basically the title. I have to REALLY curl my lashes and my current liner always comes off (nyx epic ink). I also would need both brown and black. Any recs?

Hey Ladies,

I(27F) have sensitive skin and have never used actual makeup other than for my wedding. I have only ever used Ponds BB Cream, Cheek Tint and Lipsticks. Can anyone please suggest me some affordable BB Creams/Skin Tints/Light Foundations that doesn't need much prep or other products alongwith it?

Which foundation is best for oily to combo, pigmented skin for events like full coverage and flawless finish and can also be used for going out for lighter look ( I have neutral warm olive skintone). Huda beauty eady blur foundation vs Charlotte tillbury airbrush foundation.

Pp9⁰

Elf poreless putty primer tube vs tub vs nyx porefiller ( fills pore and hold make up).

Rimmle compact powder vs maybelline compact powder

Elf hydratiog concealer vs elf 16h concealer

Elf color corrector vs la girl correctors

Milani original setting spray vs loreal 3s setting mist ( which melts makeup and make.it long lasting).

Any other recommemdations are also welcomed.

I’m looking for a good crayon eyeliner that is good for waterline. My big issue is that most crayon eyeliners I find at Sephora (and drug store) are plastic, need to be sharpened all the time. When they’re dull the jagged plastic edges cut up my eye 😣 I just want a good WOODEN crayon, anyone have a recommendation?

Does the wonderskin lip stain actually stay on the lips for a long time? Or is it just the marketing?I need an to have my lips look like they've got makeup even after eating, making out, etc. but I don't wanna spend a lot of money on a mid product... I already have one stain that just... Doesn't stain lol

Any help will be much appreciated 💕

Hi all! I am a teacher and I'm looking for product recs. I like my daily routine to be relatively quick and natural, like a light base, mascara, brow gel (not tinted, as I have dark/thick brows), some bronzer, blush, and maybe an easy eye look when I have time. Right now I am sweating off my makeup by recess! I find that with all of the moving around and stress, I look busted by the end of the day lol, with raccoon eyes. Current skin concerns are: not looking so dull/red, the occasional breakout, and looking less tired. I have sensitive/a little dry skin, but apparently that school air makes me sweat/oil up lol. Bonus if anyone has any quick tips to freshen up in the middle of the day! TYIA!

Current products (not including skincare):

- Elf halo glow

- Elf hydrating camo concealer

- Benefit BANG mascara

- Elf soap brow

- Random lipgloss/eyeshadow (not as relevant)

i’ve developed an allergy to eyelash glue! all of it even the latex free ones :( it causes my eyes to swell up and literally weep ! i know alot of people are just gonna say “well you have to stop wearing them” but tbh no lol my makeup is very dependent on my eyelashes. i wear massive eyeliner and my eyes are the main focus of my looks. i’m wondering if anyone has any advice for alternatives for eyelashes that won’t fuck my eyes up completely or if anyone is going through the same thing and what they used to help them? whenever i wear my lashes i have to not wear makeup for like a week after because of how irritated my eyes are, i don’t even have a problem with not wearing makeup but when i go out i want to not have to plan weeks in advance when im going to fuck my eyes up 😭

Hi everyone.

I use Fenty Pro Filtr foundation with a Charlotte Tilbury foundation.

Current base: Corsx Essence, then Corsx All In One Cream, then thin moisturizer (with sunscreen).

I have very oily skin around my T.

My greatest issue is that my make up looks very cakey and flaky around my mouth and chin areas but perfectly fine everywhere else on my face.

I use concealer around the corners of my lips. Is that a contributor? I don't use concealer anywhere else.

What foundation would you recommend for dry acne-prone skin? My skin dried out from adapalane,azelaic acid. Ive heard of Hauslab but Im currently using Dior hydra nude and it doesnt make cakey but feels too moisturizing (oily)and lacks coverage would yall recommend Nars.Need me a new foundation🥹🫰🏻

Can anyone recommend a decent face paint palette for a teenage girl who likes experimenting in fun makeup looks TIA

like before or after sunscreen? if i apply a cream blush on top of sunscreen, doesn't it rub the spf off? i avoid wearing foundation during the day for this reason, im afraid im just rubbing all the sun protection off

Hey! Does anyone have a good recommendation for a champagne one-in-done eyeshadow? Preferably a cream one? I love a glowy look so even a bit of shimmer would look nice. I have olive skin if that helps!

Hi all, recently noticed a few hours after applying that my foundation has basically disappeared and I’m not sure why. I use a number of serums and Avene sunscreen as last step. I’m wondering if it’s my sunscreen or maybe I’m not leaving enough time for all my skin care products to absorb. It’s like my foundation just sort of slides off. Any advice please?

I'm looking for some recommendations for y'all's favorite brown waterproof mascara! I love brown mascara but very few seem to be waterproof. I have the Essence waterproof brown, but it always ends up smudging under my eyes. Thanks in advance!

Hey! Basically what title says, what is the best budget matte white eyshadow that is pigmented?

I’m looking specifically for a single white eyshadow, not a palette. I use a looot of white eyeshadow especially because I’m a goth and I don’t want to keep buying palettes. I went around a shopping centre for 3 hours looking JUST for white eyshadow, the only brand that I found sold it was MAC but they wanted me to pay €25 for it 🥲

Btw I live in Europe so I don’t have access to shops like ulta and Sephora!! I am willing to purchase online tho!

Please can someone help me out 🙏
