Where Can I Get... Catrice Skin Like Luminous Foundation - 075W

Post image
• Upvotes

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.

Help Sought! Issue with elf shadow stick

Post image
• Upvotes

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?

Rant Another Space NK issue..

• Upvotes

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!!

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???

Kaleidos - me again with the questions 🙆‍♀️

1 Upvotes

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'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 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.

Make up start over

2 Upvotes

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

Misc Bad Bunny x Robert W - lip mud

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

Nars soft matte foundation is being discontinued

13 Upvotes

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.

Urban Decay Ultra Glow setting spray alternatives

1 Upvotes

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!

Recc' Request Charlotte Tilbury Unreal Blush Healthy Glow Sticks

Post image
7 Upvotes

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!

I have an old set of the Real Techniques MultiTech Point brushes in sizes S - XXXS. Several are pretty worn now, and I love the size, shape and feel of the birstles.

Please help me find brush dupes / similar brushes!
I'm interested in finding XS-L.

Descriptor found online:
"Real Techniques MultiTech Point, in a range of different sizes from XXXS to XXXL. Each brush has exactly the same cut, which can be used for creams, liquids and powders, and as a result of this, it is entirely up to you how you use them."

I have very straight Asian lashes (iykyk) and I've found the only mascara which holds any curl is the Clio Kill Lash. Anyone tried other mascaras which also work? The only annoying things about the Clio one is it's a pain to take off and I'd love to have a brown mascara. Any recommendations appreciated!

Help Sought! Patchy Foundation

1 Upvotes

I have religiously used Too Faced Born This Way foundation since 2016 and I used to LOVE it, it always gave me a great finish and would last all day and all night. I used to wear makeup daily but now I only wear it if I'm going out somewhere nice or for an event.

I hadn't worn makeup for a few years, so I bought a new bottle last year. For some reason every time I apply it, it doesn't sit right on my skin and it doesn't blend out nicely and it's always patchy and uneven. What could cause this?

I use Cetaphil Moisturizing Cream, Mecca Max primer, and I apply foundation with a damp beauty blender, then set it with pressed powder on a brush, and then I use Mecca Max setting spray. I have tried applying it with a foundation brush but that has never worked for me and just leaves me streaky. I have also tried using a powder puff to set my foundation but that didn't make much difference except leaving me dryer than normal.

My skin care routine is Cetaphil Gentle Cleanser but not daily as my skin is sensitive and I have rosacea, and I use the moisturizer daily, often morning and night.

Does anyone have any insight as to why this might happen? Does anyone know if they changed the formula? Do I need to change any products for the days that I wear makeup? Should I try a different foundation? I like a full coverage natural/Dewey finish.

I should also add, I have tried my exact skin care routine and base makeup on the inside of my arm and back of my hand and when I put foundation on, it does start a bit patchy but then it blends out nicely and looks so much nicer than my face lol

I also used to be able to use the tip of my finger nail to press my skin if I had an itch on my face and then just lightly tap the area a bit and it was unnoticeable but if I do that now and tap it, it takes off some makeup and leaves a noticeable spot where I tapped.

Pls help me knowledgable people!

TIA xx

Recc' Request Best mum make up at Sephora

7 Upvotes

I‘m a mum and I recently turned 39. I want my make up to be natural, easy, and making me look well rested and younger. and most importantly, I want to stick the stuff on in the morning and then be DONE for the rest of the day.

I like the idea of brands like Merit but struggle to believe that I could get any longevity from a cream blush like that… natural dewy look yes, but not at the expense of having to reapply every 3 hrs.

stuff I like

- red 27 lip stains because they stay long and wear off gradually so they don’t have to be managed like other lip stains

- liquid blush and/or tarte amazonian clay blush because it stays long

- tubing mascara because I have oily eyelids

- I LOVE the look of the loreal glass stick but it doesn’t last and settle into lines

- anything dewy but that doesn’t make pores look bigger. blurring stuff is good

I‘ve got a giftcard from sephora but open to any suggestions, really
