I apologise if this is not allowed but wasn’t sure where to post 😅

I’ve started content creating at the beginning of the year and so far I’ve been really enjoying it. I specialise in the colourful, sparkly and indie niche.

Recently I’ve also started posting on YouTube with tutorials. What I was planning is tutorials of editorial, very colourful or in depth looks, explaining how to do it, what products I’m using and all of that.
So basically long form tutorials for those “elaborate” instagram looks if you know what I mean.

So the question is.. would you watch this type of video? And if not, why not?

Some examples of looks I did, some more elaborate others more wearable but all quite colourful.

Products used:

Is anyone else having an issue with space NK where their item was returned due to a mislabel by them?

I ordered 2 items last Wednesday, supposed to be delivered Thursday. By Saturday still not here and got a notification saying it was being returned due to having an incomplete address. My address looked correct when I submit but when they printed the label, the flat number is missing so it somehow defaults to a different sorting office. It’s happened before and I can’t figure out how to fix it, depending on how helpful the post office is, they usually phone me and re-route it. This is the only company I’ve ever had this issue with.

I phoned on Sunday and was assured I would get a replacement sent but only 1 item arrived so I phoned. told they don’t know when the other item would be dispatched. The address of the item arriving today was missing a different line of the address but it got here.

When I requested a cancellation of the outstanding product (£65) they said it was only a request as it might have already been picked when they can’t stop it but they can’t see that information.

I’m actually shocked that a company can behave this way- this is their error from the start and I’m a week later without my order? There was no apology for this just a oh you should have been told it could come in a part shipment. The only suggestion they had about their website glitch is to remove my address and try again but I can’t do that until this order is finished!

I’ve never come across a company like it!!

I moved from Singapore to Scotland recently to do my masters and I'm struggling to adapt to the total 180 degree climate difference 🥲 I'm on tretinoin + azelaic acid so the first couple of weeks have been rough. I also have acne prone and oily skin so I would really appreciate recommendations for a good base!

I'm currently using my own skin tint I got from a southeast asian brand because of the shade match and lightweight consistency. I'm also using one size setting spray after and the essence pressed powder. I'm mainly looking for setting spray, skin tint and pressed powder recs for when I used mine up! Any help is greatly appreciated because I've seen a lot of baddies around with indestructible makeup and I too would like to survive the rain! 😁

Hey all! I bought this shadow stick from Elf and it arrived with white flecks all over that weren’t visible in the photos on the website. I emailed them about it and to their credit they sent a replacement immediately, but the replacement has arrived Nd also has the same thing. Does anyone know what it is? I’m worried it’s mould or something?

I've been wanting a lime green lipstick like this for a while, but I can't find ANYWHERE that sells something like it. I can only find green tinted glosses or dark green lipstick.

Does anyone know of somewhere that sells something like in the images?

Totally new to make up btw, but I saw the hype over MBM on social media. Decided to give it a go, I got it on sale as it was cheaper, but I cannot contain my disappointment and disgust?

I understand the majority of skin tints have some form of oil in them, but this skin tint is mostly just oil.

I had left it sitting on my desk for 12 hours, and all the oil sits on top, separated. But this separation also happens an hour after the product sitting on my desk or face.

I of course shake the bottle before usage, but it separates anyway. I poured some of the oil out, but there's still so much left.

Is this normal???

Hey everybody. I've been looking everywhere for the Catrice Skin Like Luminous Foundation in London and I've failed to get a hold of it.

Even online I've tried parfumdreams, boots, superdrug, falseeyelashes, amazon. They either don't have it or they have it only specific shades.

Does anyone have a clue about where I could find this? Even more helpful would be an online option. I really need it in a few days so I'd really appreciate the help.

I usually use these eyeshadow sticks as a base or colour. However I've just had upper blepharoplasty and these babies are tough. I'm looking for something long lasting, colour dense and soft that doesn't drag across the eyelids.

Also matte please. I've tried the Kiko ones and they don't last on me.

I've googled this but couldn't find anything, hoping people here might have an answer. Anywhere I can get the Kaleidos glassload lip melt and capsule in England that isn't yesstyle? From the actual Kaleidos website, shipping isnt too bad price wise but delivery time is 20+ days, and yesstyle doesn't currently stock the shade I want 😭

Wondered if anyone knows any other websites 🫶

i use nivea moisturiser beforehand and let it sit. and then I put nyx pro concealer and then layer 2 foundation with setting spray on brush

how can I fix this? I tried slight pressed powder and even loose powder but it’s all the same.

I've always bought cheap makeup and decided to get Nars Radiant Longwear in shade Mont Blanc (Used the colour matcher) WAY too dark, didnt look anything like it did on the website it was super orange on me, so I bought another in shade Yulong, still too dark and really not all that different from oslo anyway. HELP </3

I'm currently based in ROI. I've been suffering with my skin lately & my face - I have contact dermatitis on my face especially my eye lids and I have gotten quite good at determining what would trigger a flare up. I have used SBA products for the past maybe 3 years now, her foundation, mascara, hydratint, etc, with no issues. Tried her makeup remover (looks like expensive micellar water) - no issues. Got her face cleanser - big NO NO for my skin. Washed my face with it and woke up next day with my eyes feeling burnt. This was probably last year. Ok fine, i moved on from that. Roll on to this year - I ran out of my old SBA foundation, bought a new one.

I don't wear makeup that often, once every few weeks. I usually mix a no7 foundation with the SBA one. Found the next day my face kept flaring up.

Wore just no7 foundation Saturday gone - face has been fine 2 days on.

Anyone else think she's gotten too big for her boots and changed the ingredients in some products? I have come across a lot of people on tiktok reacting to that 'gentle' cleanser and their faces looking burnt post using it.

Sorry for the long winded post lol. Thought i'd provide you with some background

I have been using the same make up products / routine for over 10+ years. I would like to try new brands and products but I have no idea where to start. I know I can go into a department store and ask for help but they normally have a beautician solely for each brand. I would like someone who can recommend different brands / products that will work for my skin / face. Is there anywhere that I can go for someone to help me start over? Preferably in South East UK. Thanks

I was wondering whether anyone here has tried the lip mud from the collection. I’m thinking of the pink shade (and maybe the berry).

Do they last OK? Is there anything to be mindful of?

Thank you

Hi everyone!

I love a black lip and neeeeed the Nyx stain in black but I cant find it available in the UK.

I asked the chat on their website and they said:

TikTok Shop

AMAZON EU SARL UK

Sainsbury's

Tesco

Asda

Superdrug

Boots

Waitrose

Ocado

Asos

Poundland

LookFantastic

B&M

Which is wild because half of those don't stock Nyx. Does anyone know if it's possible to buy here?

Thank you! 🖤

I think I’m late to the party but I am absolutely gutted that Nars is discontinuing their soft matte foundation. I used to use it all the time a few years ago then tried a few different foundations and have recently gone back to it and I don’t know why I ever stopped using it. My skin has a lot of texture and it covers it all and just looks completely flawless. I get compliments every time I use it, it’s such a beautiful foundation. I don’t know what I’m going to do now!

I’m just getting so frustrated with make up brands either discontinuing products or changing formulas, it’s exhausting to constantly have to keep looking for something new.

LABIAL DE LA MARCA AVON

Hello everyone, I’m running out of my favourite setting spray ever. It’s the only one which gives my face that dewy, extra glowy sheen I’ve always wanted but it’s no longer available. I can’t see why they’d want to discontinue such a popular product.

So as the title says, I’d appreciate alternatives with that same effect!

From what I've sent it's only available on the states? I really want it 😭

Hi!

I’m looking for waterproof mascara recommendations that make the lashes look more defined but still natural looking.

I’ve only tried The L’Oreal Telescopic Waterproof mascara, but I feel like I want to try something new.

Any suggestions are appreciated.

Thank you!

I’m new to Reddit and have a stash of barely used makeup (Cle de Peau, Hourglass, Too Faced, Nars and Refy) but I can’t seem to find a UK based community to sell it on.

Hi!

I’m fairly new to makeup. For everyday looks, I like subtle, natural, glowy makeup. I guess that’s what’s called ”clean girl makeup”? I don’t usually wear foundation, skin tint, etc. I only wear concealer on blemishes, blush, mascara and a lip.

I’ve been looking in to the Charlotte Tilbury Unreal Blush Healthy Glow Sticks. They have cool toned shade options (I’m very cool toned), which is why I’m thinking of getting them. Would you recommend these for what I’m after? I’m mainly worried about the shimmer being to much (it does have some, doesn’t it?).

Would you recommend these? If not, are there any other blushes you would recommend?

Thank you!
