So at work today I was thinking about some of my favourite beauty items over the years. There's Revlon Super Lustrous lip gloss which I love, in the colour "shine city" which is basically clear with a light pink tinge and shimmer:
But its $21.95 for that tiny tube lol so I dont buy it anymore. Also love MAC matte lipstick in cherish, and I tried a new one the other day in Viva Glam II (which is like cherish except slightly more pink, as cherish has a nude/brown base). This is cherish:
My favourite mascara ever WAS L'oreal Lash Architect. I had it years ago, then went a long time without having it. I bought it again a few weeks ago for the first time in ages, but I think its a bit different. The brush has changed too, and I prefer the thicker, old brush. I also like black NP Set (napoleon perdis) mascara, its in the white tube. I like the big, bristly brush. I hate Revlon mascara, all the ones I've ever used are so clumpy.
I have tried a handful of foundations, because I'm always looking for the best one with my colour. I've tried:
- Revlon Colourstay (Sand Beige): wasn't good coverage, and I found that it remained wet after application meaning it'd come off by rubbing it.
- L'oreal True Match (?) in golden beige. Twas very good when put together with Natio Mineral Foundation (which I used as a powder on top)
- Clarins Everlasting Foundation (Honey). I really liked this, wasn't too cakey and stayed on all day. Might buy it again sometime.
- Estee Lauder Double Wear. I tried it in two colours, Ivory Beige and Fresco. I found the first one to be too dark, and left a dark line along my jawline. Fresco was a shade lighter and it suits much better. Its a bit hard to put on (can get blotchy if you dont apply quickly and evenly) but the coverage is awesome.
I use natio young facewash and moisturizer, they're decent. I want to try Estee Lauder Hydrationist day cream but its like $75 lol and I am poor. I might pinch some from the tester at work. Also I want to try some bloom nail polish because apparently its really good? I usually use Revlon nail polish (black, red, fuchsia are my main colours) but I find it to be shit.
ITT share favourite beauty items and also experiences with products and things you want to try, etc etc.
