pale lips my whole life and i never thought much of it. lately though if i leave the house bare faced at least one person asks if im coming down with something or tells me i look shattered. had a coworker offer me a lemsip last week because i looked peaky, i was just tired in a normal way

lipstick slides off me by eleven and i cant be reapplying at my desk all day. what are people with no natural colour actually using that stays put​

I’ve been struggling to find a good SPF that sits well under makeup, some new ones I have tried recently I notice start to pill under my base makeup.

Looking to find something that goes rather unnoticed and is good for sensitive skin, so non-perfumed if possible.

I’ve been using La Roche-Posay Anthlios UVMUNE 50+ for about two years, while it’s a great sunscreen, I just wonder if there’s anything better out there?

If anyone has any recommendations I’d be so grateful!

Cult Beauty advent calendar is still in stock. I believe it was sold out last year fairly quickly.

Do you think there is a possibility of it going on sale?

I have seen Boots are selling MAC lipstick for £21. Normally £25. Which colours do you recommend? I still like my £1.50 lipstick from Primark but just fancy something different. I like pinks,browns and beige colours

Thanks girlies!

Anyone have a good undereye concealer recommendation? I love the nars pot concealer for spot concealing but it doesn’t work so well for the under eyes :( I’m an NC42 in MAC so any similar shade recs would be good - TIA :)

I’m looking for the best eyebrow serum that my brows can really benefit from. I used to use the Ordinary Lash and Brow serum. However, I don’t think it achieved the desired results I wanted my brows to look - thicker and fuller. I think it did have some slight changes to my brows but in my opinion, not enough. I also impulsively pick my eyebrow hairs which may have contributed to some bald spots visible within my eyebrows. If anyone could please recommend any eyebrow serums that actually work and are proven to grow healthier, thicker and fuller brows please let me know!

hi all! I’m looking for really deep black eyeliner, mainly to tight line and normal wing liner.

Preferably under a tenner and if I could find it in boots or Superdrug, tyyy x

Please help me find a dupe for this shade 'Dallas'. It was a limited edition addition to the Nyx vault II 2017, so doesn't show up on any dupe websites. I use it sparingly and it literally burns to put on at this point but I've never found anything similar.

My previous attempts include stupidly buying Lisa Eldridge 'velvet dragon' and OFRA's long lasting liquid lipstick in 'Miami fever'. While both have the orange/coral,they are both too dark/strong.

I put the YouTube screenshots into various dupe websites and got 3 different sets of lipsticks with no overlap.

From looking at other pictures I think the following could be close matches:
- Revlon ultra HD matte mouse ( sub-Saharan)
- Bobbi Brown luxe cashmere matte (afternoon tea)
- Hourglass unlocked soft matte (tiger lily )
- MAC (mull it over /mull it to the max)
-Lime Crime plushies (marmalade)

Does anyone know of anything similar or if the recommendations are similar? Even if discontinued, I could use it to find what I'm looking for. Any help would be appreciated!

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.

This post for olive skin girlies, i want lipstick recommendations

Hello all, would it be possible to fill out a short beauty survey for my uni marketing project, all responses are anonymous and used for research purposes only. Thank you so much!!

I’m 31 and have been doing my makeup essentially the same for 10 years. I’ve made tweaks here and there but I am using the same foundation I was at 21 (Rimmel Lasting Finish in Ivory) which is quite heavy coverage. My skin is pretty clear most of the time and I have a skin care routine that really works for me but I just feel I need something lighter coverage for a base but I don’t even know where to start. I did some Googling and it was talking about skin tints and BB creams or CC creams and it was actually quite overwhelming so I thought I would come here to ask for help. Do you have any recommendations that could help me of where to start?

Are MAC planning to release more frost shades in the UK from their new release? I've been OBSESSED with this colour, but I can only find it on the USA website, and can't find any mentions of it releasing here.

Hi, I need a recommendation for a green-focused eyeshadow palette with some brows and warm oranges and maybe some other pops of colour. I found a few but theyre lacking the specific dark olive shade that I want, and if they have it, the rest of the colours aren't doing it for me.

The closest thing I have found that is the sold out cosmic brushes green "undergrowth" palette paired with the "sun tarot" palette.

Tbh i am open to other colour stories if they are compatible with my medium brown skintone (think Nars Cafe Con Leche or Missha Shade 23 or Maybelline Shade 6) with a neutral undertone.

So if anyone has any recommendations, please let me know !! <3

Hello, just checking as I cannot see any other reference to this online. I know the formula was changed for the colour riche line but have the shades shifted as well please? I have used my beige a nu lipliner for years (not much left as you can see), on buying a new one i have noticed it is now much brighter with a more orange tone. Does anyone know whether I may have just bought a weird batch or if it has noticeably changed please? Think i may need to find a new shade if its changed. Thanks

I have this liquid lipstick but it's old and difficult to apply. I generally prefer stick lipsticks rather than liquid.

I'm specifically wanting a deep purple that isn't a red purple

When the images of the top row of the Christmas hourglass palettes starting circulating I was so excited. But we are coming to the end of October now, am I right in thinking if they’ve not been announced yet they aren’t coming?🙁

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! 😁

A woman wanna sell me led mask series 3 with almost 60% discount she said yesterday 20th october there was a big sale in current body store in london. I am not sure if the mask original or scam.

I don't live in uk so i wanna ask if there's such deals in stores

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?

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!!

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?

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.
