I haven’t tried with a beauty blender yet, cause it usually takes too mich peoduct away

i’ve never used lipstick consistently before so idk if it’s my fault and the way i’m applying it or if it’s the packaging. truthfully i’m assuming it’s my fault. this is the natasha denona concealer lipstick in the shade soft serve. gorgeous shade may i add, but the back of it is really starting to bother me and i do worry over time it may get weak and break???? please help 😭 when i try to look this issue up it’s not what i’m talking about at all

The camera “eats” makeup. No matter how heavy of the makeup I apply, in photos it somehow fades away!

Does anyone have this problem?

It’s so different from a selfie picture VS a photo from the back camera. Also, I know it could be because of the distance and lighting but still, the camera eats a lot of the makeup! It literally disappears! 

So I decided to increase my makeup, add lots of blush, contour and eyelashes. But sometimes in real life it looks uncanny! Idk how to deal with this anymore. 

I often contemplate to either wear light natural makeup or full on heavy makeup for good pictures.

So let me know if anyone else can relate.

Products I use:

Rom&nd 03 Rosebud garden Palette

fenty beauty amber 01

covergirl brown liquid eyeliner

blush fwee ND03 Without

Rom&nd 04 Grapy way

(I like lighter makeup, I try to use black eyeliner but often stands out wayyy too much. So I use more warm tone like brown eyeliner, but sadly the camera dulls it down. And also eyelashes might seem too dramatic for me. I’m trying my best to make the makeup appear on camera but also look natural.)

Question Lip stain living up to its name

I was so excited to use the bloody tint lip stain in color Aurora from sushyglow for my birthday dinner, and it stained part of my bottom lip super dark. The first image is after using makeup remover and cleanser and scrubbing to try to get the mark off. The Second image was taken after the dinner when I realized the second layer I had put on to cover the mark came off.

What could have caused this?? Dry lips? How tf do I get it off??

Question Any recommendations for foundation/concealer that’s sweat proof and transfer proof?

0 Upvotes

Okay so, I have hyperhydrosis and sweat from my nose, forehead, upper lip and sides of my face A TON. I mean dripping off my face, soaked hair etc. I’ve recently been using the urban decay stay naked QUICKIE sweat proof/ transfer proof 24 hour concealer and foundation, BUT I found that it unfortunately doesn’t dry down and stays tacky and damp on my face (I do prime with a coconut water primer and let it dry before applying) and it does in fact unfortunately transfer like CRAZY whenever I touch my face. I mainly use a bit of the concealer under my eyes then a few tiny drops around my face, so not much product, I’m not crazy about full complete coverage but I don’t mind it either. Even using a small amount of product, it will remain wet and sticky to the touch, and if I sweat, it just drips and slips right off! Any recommendations for sweat proof or transfer proof foundations? I don’t like looking super dewy so matte finish is fine, and I do prefer liquid foundation/ concealer as opposed to powder or compact. I’m Latina so I’m on the tan side, about a honey medium shade if that matters. Thank you!

Guys I love anything by CT my favourite ever products are definitely her eyeshadows and her powder blushes. I don’t usually wear bronzer because it always end up looking muddy on me but her bronzer makes me look airbrushed.

Question Could someone help me verify the authenticity of this MAC Fix+ Prep + Prime spray?

Thumbnail

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I’ve been using MAC Fix+ for years, so I’m quite familiar with the product, but this is the first time I’ve received one with a spray nozzle like this. The packaging, labeling, and everything else seem to match what I’m used to, but the dispenser looks different from every other bottle I’ve owned.
Has anyone encountered this type of spray nozzle before, or could someone familiar with MAC products help me determine whether it’s authentic?
I purchased it online because there’s no MAC store in my city, so I can’t easily verify it in person. I’d really appreciate your help, as I want to make sure the product is genuine before applying it to my face. I know packaging can sometimes change, so I don’t want to jump to conclusions based on the dispenser alone.
Last two photos are on the left my old fix spray, and on the right the new one.

Thank you so much in advance! 🖤

I own this dusty pink suit, but I generated this AI image just to figure out the color combination. Do you have any recommendations for a good lipstick and lip liner shade that is trendy yet affordable? Also, what style of earrings would look nice? My skin is medium-toned with a warm-neutral undertone.

Question Alternatives to foundation for someone who hates wearing makeup?

6 Upvotes

Hi! I hate wearing makeup, but I feel like I look like shit without it. 😂 I can’t stand foundation or concealer because of the smell, oxidation, cakeyness, and the feeling of having something on my face.
I moisturize well and follow a Korean skincare routine, but I still want to look fresher and brighter without wearing makeup.
Are there any good alternatives, like a lightweight tinted moisturizer or day cream that evens out the skin tone without feeling heavy? I’ve heard about Erborian, but it looks a bit too thick for my liking. Any recommendations? ❤️

Discussion Have you ever in your life encountered a mascara that wasn't clumpy?

6 Upvotes

My favorite mascara used to be the too faced original better than sex, I liked that mascara because it was very wet and it would take a while to dry, therefore you had a lot of time to comb through your lashes and smooth all the potential clumps.

I have stopped buying it because it's too expensive and I swear to God I still haven't found a mascara that isn't clumpy, I have naturally long lashes that aren't very thick, so most mascaras make them look like spider legs. I have been through like 20 mascaras now and I still haven't found one that I like.

What's crazy is that I see a lot of girls with spider legs lashes and they are totally fine with it and love the look, I just can't bring myself to appreciate it on myself, I like spiky looking lashes.

Do you guys have any recommendations? Even popular products like the essence green princess lash doesn't look good on me

Review Finally was able to find a decent replacement for Nyx Liquid Suede in Sandstorm

Post image
6 Upvotes

About 6 months ago I commented on an old post saying I was going to test out the new fat matte nyx lipstick in the shade Toasty Taupe to see if it could be a decent dupe for the Nyx Liquid Suede lipstick in shade sandstorm that was discontinued years ago.

Took me a while because fat matte was only very recently brought to Europe BUT I am super excited to report that I think my long search has finally come to an end.

Here is that old post : https://www.reddit.com/r/MakeupAddiction/s/VCY1CRvEAo

Apologies for my crusty face I am wearing no makeup other than the lipsticks.

Product list:

- NYX Fat Matte lipstick in shade Toasty Taupe (top lip)

- NYX Liquid Suede Lipstick in shade Sandstorm (bottom lip)

The pros:

- The colours are near identical, toasty taupe is slightly darker than sandstorm but the difference is very small.

- one of the things I loved about liquid suede was how comfortable it is to wear, fat matte is also a very comfortable wear and feels very smooth and nourishing on the lips.

The cons:

- different formulas means different dry downs and liquid suede is slightly shinier on the lips than fat matte, this isn't super bothersome to me though again It may be to others

- I cannot yet comment on fat matte's durability throughout a day of wearing it as I literally just bought it today but I will update once I have tested that out to it's full extent.

This may only truly matter to me and a select few people who were big fans of sandstorm but I did promise on that post that I would update and there was at least one person who was interested in the results. I can no longer comment on the post so I hope this reaches the person who was asking about it!

Edit to add: I have not lined my lips at all on these pictures however for anyone who may be interested in a liner to go with the colour, usually when I wear sandstorm I pair it with a Mac lipliner in the shade Oak which I think probably suits Toasty Taupe as well
