My (current) favorite products: CC Cream: It Cosmetics (like many of you!) Eyeliner: Thrive Causemetics - something I got in my Ipsy box once and have ordered full size since then Eyeshadow: Younique moodstruck addiction 2 palette Hair: - Joico K-Pak color therapy shampoo/conditioner. Works as well as stuff way more expensive. - Olaplex #3 Body : - pure romance sugar polish (which they no longer make but I have a stash) - Kashmere toning oil (Kim Zolciak Biermann's line. Smells amazing, feels good.) Looking for suggestions here for eye cream because I'm starting to get crow's feet.

I love the nyx eye primer, works really well! I have both the pot version and the wand version. Ulta also has great sales on nyx products. I also use their eyebrow powder and works great too. Any recs for a foundation that can cover well and stay put? I dont have acne but would love to cover my freckles and skin spots. I am using a Tarte concealer that I love so I might stay with Tarte, but am open to anything. Would prefer to get it at Ulta but can venture into Sephora if need be. That place overwhelms me lol! Is the tarte WORKING to cover your freckles? I have sun spots all under my eyes and it looks like eyeshadow fallout. I can smear as much concealer on as I want, but those stupid things always, always show through. I even have the IT bye bye undereye and they show through that. Maybe it's because I ONLY want to dab on concealer and refuse foundation... But if it works for you, I might go get a little sample from Sephora to try out.

LisaDV, I just bought napa lipsense and really like it but wish I got plum. Napas not as bright as I wanted. But I still love it. I just got the plum and β€οΈ it!! It goes on super easy which sometimes the darker colors can give me fits. And it wears wonderful. The nutmeg I got at the same time gets flakey in an hour or two and wears partially off by 3 hours.

Anyone have a blush to recommend?
Iβve used Bare Minerals and a cream one that I canβt remember the name of and Iβm not really impressed with either.

I love makeup. Can I share a new foundation that I love? Too Faced Perfect Peach comfort matte foundation exceeded my expectations. I'm in my 40's and thought maybe I'm not their target market, but I love their eyeshadows, so I gave this new foundation a try and I love it. It has great coverage, stays on all day and I don't get a slick layer of oil on my nose with it.

I really should not have opened this thread. Lol. I had to go to Walgreens for something else and ended up getting the Lip stick that BF mentioned as well as a few other things. But now I also want the eyeshadow that Yvonne posted, the lash enhancer, and I was just searching online and am intrigued by urban decay vice lipstick. Has anyone tried that? I don't wear lip stick often because I have very dry lips that are sensitive to lipstick. They are also very thin and look even thinner in some colors. But the colors I saw online look great.

I love the Urban Decay Vice lipsticks...so many amazing colors. I'm like a kid in the candy store at their displays in Ulta and Sephora.
My favorite fulll coverage foundation is the YSL All Hours Foundation. I don't have a lot of freckles though, but I get great coverage with it.

I use NARS Daydream (released a few years ago but you might still be able to get it) on the daily or one of the Benefit boxed blushes like Rockateur and Sugarbomb.

I really love the CoverGirl Outlast lip stains/glosses but I'd like to try other brands with the same idea (gloss dries on your lips and really does not come off for hours - you put a clear gloss on top as needed for moisture). I'd like to see what else is out there. Anyone have any recommendations? I have the Sephora brand on right now and I love the colour and shine. Their matte ones are great, too. I have an Anastasia one and it is chalky. I donβt like it, but the colour is good. I have some Maybelline ones and they are good sometimes, but they also flake off. I had a few EstΓ©e Lauder ones and they were amazing. They would last forever and they discontinued them. I think I have one left maybe.

Face masks: what do you love, hate, use, where to buy, smell, sheet or essence???! I swear by the Origins brand masks - particularly their Drink Up Intensive mask. I've used so many sheet masks over the years and while I feel an improvement the next day and my skin feels smoother, nothing hydrates me like Origins Drink Up Intensive and nothing clears my skin up like their Out of Trouble and Clear Improvement masks. The tubes last forever too. The sheet mask brand I would recommend though is My Beauty Diary. They're the best Korean masks out there in my opinion. You can pick them up on eBay.

ihaveonly1l I've moved on from powder blushes. They never look quite as natural as a good cream blush. After a long search, the holy grail has been found: Bobbi Brown's Pot Rouge in Uber Beige (don't like it on the lips though). It's also one of Hannah Martin's faves (in case you follow her on YouTube).

I have a hard time finding blush that stays on. It seems to just disappear into my skin. Nars orgasm and it cosmetics blush are what I typically use. I think the It cosmetics lasts longer for me. In the past I've used Clinique blush wear cream to powder blush and it stayed on a long time. But it's discontinued now.

I thought of this thread as I was getting ready this morning...I started using Rimmel Provocalips about a year ago...I love it! Color last pretty much all day long without needing to reapply - I might do a touch up after lunch but don't always need to. My fave color is "I'll Call You"

I love this idea! I'll participate. My town just got our own Ulta, FINALLY. The soft opening is this week and everything is 20% off and I've already been twice. I bought the most fabulous eye shadow palette, and cheeeap! OMG. I'm thrilled with it. I'd never heard of this brand and when I bought it, I thought it was by Revlon. The brand is Makeup Revolution. After I got home I started searching YouTube for reviews, and wow, they are all really good. They make knock offs of the pricier eye palettes, like the Nakeds, etc. Um, $50.00 vs $7? Sign me up! Here is the one I bought. The colors glide on, buttery and smooth. They wear all day, and my day starts at 5:30 am (when I do my face) and some days I don't wash off until 9:00 ish. Beautiful. I"m going to collect them all. I'm also a new convert to It cc cream. A girlfriend gave me a big tube for my birthday and I am sold on this stuff. I love it so much I'm going to be looking at their other products now. I bought a Tarte under eye concealer and I just don't like it. Its too spackle-y, gets in my wrinkles and just doesn't blend well. I'm also looking for a good cleanser for the shower in the morning. The weather has turned really dry and my current face wash is too drying. I like Olay, I'll check there. I'm kinda over Lush for the most part. The stuff goes bad if you don't use things up, I've had to toss more than one thing. I do love love they Buffy bar, and the newest version of it, the Scrubee. Smells divine and feels like butter, great for elbows, knees, tush. Anywhere you need exfoliating. It leaves your skin soft and smooth after. I just put this in my Amazon cart since there isn't an Ulta close to me. Can't wait to get it!

I bought the Maybelline matte ink in Lover yesterday, wore it today for the first time and while the colour is great I can't get on with the formula. It's drying and looks horrible after a while, my lips feel parched and look about a hundred years old. What am I doing wrong with it??

The NYX lip lingerie line is also great and quite long-lasting. I like the lip oil because itβs not completely matte.
ETA: Also not tacky.

Lipgloss is a no go for me as I will bite it off. Tacky liquid lips just bugs me to no end. Thank you for your opinion. I appreciate it very much!
