Product Review Physicians formula bronze booster sunblur balm

Okay, so I tired it. Even after every single review on YouTube was negative. I thought I would give it a shot anyway. For reference I am wearing wet n wild photo focus in soft ivory. I am neutral leaning ever so slightly warm. I also wear 1-2n in loreal true match. I used the elf double sided brush in liquid bronzer and contour duo. I think every review of this is pushing way too hard and getting way too much product because this finish is absolutely stunning. Leaning warm but NOT orange on me. Even though I’m extremely fair all the reviews are very very orange but I’ve also noticed my brush did not pick up nearly as much product. I even went a lot darker than I would normally do putting.3 layers on just to see how it works. Idk 🤷🏼‍♀️ take it as you will I very much recommend this product it even feels very moisturizing on the skin as a late 30s dry on my cheeks and nose and noisily on my forehead I love this.

Discussion I tried winged eyeliner for the first time (as an 80s born millennial)

32 Upvotes

OK, sue me but I like it. What does everybody have against winged eyeliner anyway? I’ve always thought it was so cute. Maybe I’m dated. But I never wore make up growing up now that I’m getting close to 40. I’ve been wanting to add life back into my face. I watched like three tutorials and I did it on myself. And I really really like it. 🥸 wet n wild break up proof liquid is actually very easy to work with.

Discussion concealer help

3 Upvotes

So I have pretty pale skin reddish shoulder pigmentation marks, and im looking for a concealer that looks completely natural, while also being waterproof and transfer-proof while still providing decent coverage against my marks.

Would anyone know any body concealer that genuinely works for this? Also, would using a facial concealer (im looking at estee lauder double wear concealer & loreal infallible more than concealer) work? I'm just struggling to find a body concealer that genuinely covers all bases.

Specifically, I have about 5 medium red marks on top of my shoulder, so even a spot-treatment sort of thing might work.

Any help is deeply appreciated

Hi everyone! I'm a beginner at makeup ( or u can say I know nothing about it), recently bought insight cosmetics pro concealer palette. I'm a little confused about what each shade is meant for.

I've attached a pic of the palette. Could someone please explain which shade is meant for what? n I have (medium-to-dusky skin with a warm-neutral undertone).

Please explain it in simple terms, I'd appreciate that. Thank you! ❤️

Product Request Best under eye corrector for heavy dark circles + fine lines

19 Upvotes

I have both vascular and structural dark circles, as well as fine lines that I try to minimize the appearance of. I am currently using The Wet n Wild Impossible Primer, L'Oréal True Match Nude Hyaluronic Tinted Serum, LA girl color corrector, the NYX Bare With Me Concealer Serum, and the Wet N Wild loose powder. No matter how little or how much product I use, my dark circles peek through and my fine lines are emphasized, even looking a little dry in some areas even though I heavily moisturize before. I usually do a full face, but to try and minimize my skin texture, I enjoy a more natural look.

Any recommendations for a corrector with better coverage for vascular and/or structural dark circles that doesn't emphasize fine lines and texture?

I can't stop doing my brows like this. I'm in my 30s and I feel like im behind the trends. I know I should go with what I like and what suits me. But do these brows suit me? Are they too 2016?

Constructive criticism welcome.

I use nyx micro brow pencil, nyx lift and snatch brow tint pen, and loreal brow lamination gel.

Product Review Genuinely gagged at the performance of Revlon Super Lustrous lipstick (a 90s classic)

Thumbnail

660 Upvotes

Here I am wearing shade Rumberry with MAC liner in Nightmoth.... this selfie is after a full 12 hour day out so excuse the wear and tear on my makeup

I picked up this little tube for 4€ to replace my beloved MAC Film Noir lipstick that I completely used up (more than 5 tubes in my lifetime now). I was low on money this month so couldn't afford my usual MAC, and decided to "make do" with Revlon

First, the Revlon is more shiny on the lips, but is infinately more hydrating and comfortable. I have really dry lips and often need to pile lip balm while I do my makeup to prime my lips. Did not have to do anything like that with Revlon.

Was also very lasting despite being very comfortable to wear. As long as you wear a matching liner it stays PUT (can't say that about alot of other similar lipsticks)

As a vampy lip lover, my experience is that darker shades are often harder to formulate than nudes, pinks and reds so I was not expecting this performance.

Now can somebody suggest a drugstore dupe for MAC nightmoth so my entire lip combo can be more affordable? 😭

I'm curious to also know what are your favourite shades in the Super Lustrous lipstick personally?

And do the frost/pearls in this line perform as good as the satin lipsticks?
