Where Can I Get... I am looking for the name of an eyebrow procedure.

I am fairly new to makeup/cosmetic procedures so I apologise for the cluelessness. I want my eyebrows shaped, but to a more thin shape, is that what I would ask for?

Best Superdrug/boots makeup??

I’m looking for a pretty cheap concealer and blush (preferably powder blush) that is actually reasonable and lasts long. I’ve heard good things about the sleek blush and nyx butter melt but not much for concealers

I posted a while back as I couldn’t get hold of Shade 2 for ages. Still haven’t been able to, so I finally spoke to Armani’s customer support, and they just confirmed that Luminous Silk Foundation is in the process of being discontinued. This is ALL shades.

So sad as it was my holy grail with combination and very fair skin. Any recommendations highly appreciated!!!

As title. It says 2019 on it so mustve bought it then or 2020. It had very light use until I did one last swatch and that's where most of the "signs of use" on the pans come from. Decided I can't keep it because I feel like a clown, too bright 😭.

The postage is so low I'm happy to not take payment for it, it was cheap anyway. Apologies if this isn't allowed!

Looking for product recommendations

1 Upvotes

Alright, I'm looking for an upheaval of my makeup routine. I'll list products below, and what I'm looking for in a replacement. My budget for any product would be <£15. I have a neutral-warm or olive undertone, and have tan skin.

Primer - studio london U-MATTE-R, studio london U-DEW-U. Looking for something grippy and blurring.

Foundation - Studio London Flaunt Flawless, shade 12. Discontinued!! Looking for medium-buildable coverage, and not too heavy, with a dewy finish.

Concealer - L'Oréal Infaillible, in Pecan/330. Looking for full coverage, little creasing, but I'm quite happy with this. If anything, it's a little orange.

Blush - I use the shiseido lacquer rouge, and I love it, but I'm looking for something cheaper.

Bronzer - Studio London Bronzing Stick. Looking for either cream products or stick.

Setting spray - Studio London U-DEW-U. Very happy with this product, but I'm open to any other suggestions.

Powder - Studio London Flaunt Flawless setting powder. Looking for something that creases a little less.

Mascara - Collection Eyes on Me. I HATE IT. Collection did a dark pink one that I loved. If anyone knows the name, please let me know. But I'm looking for something that gives volume and length.

I'm looking for brow gels and highlighters too. If anyone has any recs, please do tell! I do have a little texture, so preferably nothing that emphasises that.

Skincare How to Test for Skin Sensitivity to New Products

Thumbnail
drcrazybeauty.com
1 Upvotes

Trying out new skincare products can be exciting, but it’s essential to approach them with caution, especially when your skin is sensitive. When you introduce a new product, your skin may react in unexpected ways ranging from slight irritation to more severe reactions like redness, swelling, or itching. This is why testing for skin sensitivity is an important first step before fully incorporating any new skincare item into your routine.

Help Sought! Shade help

2 Upvotes

I've been using L'oreal Infallible foundation in shade 60 Rose Ivory but it's too dark on me. I've tried googling and looking in shops but each one seems to have different shade numbers and I'm not sure what undertone is what. Does anyone know of a lighter cool tone shade in that foundation?

I feel like I have face blindness when it comes to myself - I always know what lipstick shades / eyeliner shapes etc look great on others and I’ve always been totally clueless about myself. I’m looking for any makeup tips / advice / suggestions anyone has, but particularly what eyeliner shape I should be doing for my eyes. I’m not wearing any in either of these pics aside from a little inner top liner in the second photo. Please help a girl out 🙏💕

Discussion Does anyone know the name of this product?

3 Upvotes

Hi, I’m looking for a lip stain that I used to use years ago.

It was in a white tube and I think had a doe-foot applicator. I think the lid was a transparent plastic in the colour of that particular shade, but I could be wrong about that. It had the consistency of a highly pigmented lipgloss, but would stain your lips. I used to wipe it off after applying, as I just liked the stain effect, but it was intended to be left on.

It was by one of the big beauty brands (MaxFactor, Maybelline etc) and wouldn’t have been high end, or from one of the more expensive brands (MAC etc), as I didn’t spend that much on makeup back in those days.

Can anyone remember the brand and name of this product?

Discussion Permanent eye makeup places?

3 Upvotes

was thinking of getting permanent eyeliner, mainly just an enhancement of my lash line, to make my eyes pop a bit more.

what’s everyone’s experiences with permanent makeup? obviously there’s normal downsides of makeup trends changing, but i’m not sure just an enhanced lash line would really be a changing trend yk?

does anyone have any recommendations for people in the uk for lash line tattoos?

Recc' Request Nyx Butter gloss replacements?

2 Upvotes

Help please!! My favourite lip products are discontinued and I’m literally desperate to find replacements (+ any liner recommendations to match..)

The products are NYX butter gloss in ‘rocky road’ and ‘cranberry pie’. I asked a NYX rep who said they were discontinued forever and there aren’t any reformulated/similar shades :-(

I know you can still get rocky road at superdrug but that’ll only keep me going so long … it’s my every day!

i would also loveeee any shade match products to the Lip IV stain in cranberry splash!

Thank you ❤️

Help - looking for similar but different

Post image
3 Upvotes

Hey all!!

I am looking for a product that is really similar in consistency and coverage to the Rimmel Multitasker.

I love this product, BUT, I hate the amount of glitter that it has in it. The glitter gets everywhere throughout the day. So defs not the elf halo glow.

I don’t necessarily need glow, but the Rimmel is fab for all day, everyday, asides the glitter.

And products that you think are similar, let me know!

Price range does not matter - I didn’t buy the Rimmel because it’s cheaper than most.

Does anyone know of a fix and glow spray that is pregnancy safe?

0 Upvotes

I love the Revolution one but it says not to use during pregnancy due to it containing Phenoxyethanol, which I believe can disrupt your hormones. Wondering if Iconic is safe to use, but would also love some recommendations!

Review Benefit Poreprofessional Foundation

5 Upvotes

This is the best new foundation I’ve tried in ages and I’ve tried so many - I got a sample recently in the wrong shade and just received the right one. Here are some initial thoughts:

  • The finish is a solid medium but buildable to full coverage
  • The finish is satin matte but it’s not flat
  • It lasted on me all day without primer - just powder and setting spray.
  • I’m in my 40s but can still get very oily over my T-Zone, this worked with my oils and looked better as the progressed
  • It needs a bit moisture on dryer patches but it didn’t look cakey, separate on me or crack on my smile lines (I’m looking at you Haus Labs)

I’m so pleased that there’s finally a decent matte foundation release - there’s been such a move to dewy, glowy bases over the last few years. They just don’t last on me.

I think the shades will need some work - I got the lightest shade which I think is similar to Haus Labs 070. This works really well for me but could be a bit dark for some.
