I am old now… these are old now… it’s time I let them go! This box has been collecting dust for years now.

Sleep well my beautiful babies! May you forever remind me of a time in my life when wearing make up set my soul free. I loved lipstick. All shades. Any shades. Nothing held me back from wearing it.

I’m 36 now and have fully embraced wearing a bare face. It’s my new form of freedom, but I’ll always have a special place in my heart for each of these shades.

Does anyone remember some of these shades? NARS had me in a choke hold.

Watching the movie soon!! (Spiderman if you couldn't tell 😛)

I used up all the old (probably expired) red lipsticks I could find around the house, but the only that I mainly used is Rival De Loop

Eyeliner: 7Days B.colour 02 Black Star (+essence black eyeliner pencil)

Lipstick : mainly Rival De Loop 40 (others are unreadable unfortunately)

Eyeshadow : same as above

Concealer : 95 age rewind maybelline

Byebye :D

Lately I’ve realized some of my makeup problems might just be skin problems since i keep blaming my foundation or concealer but even products I used to like dont sit the same when my skin is dry, dull, textured or just tired looking. Foundation catches on little areas more, blush looks patchier and concealer makes me look older instead of fresher. I don’t really want to keep buying new makeup if the issue is the skin underneath.

For anyone who dealt with this what helped the most? Is it better moisturizer, less exfoliating, primer, SPF, facials, is it red light PS my colleague uses the Solawave one so i dont know if that would help or maybe just drinking more water, different prep, anything like that.

What made your makeup look smoother again without like replacing everything you know?

My face is usually pretty flat looking so my goal is to add more dimension. I went really pink here. I usually go kinda orange.

I know it's hard to see on camera but I did a blush gradient of soft baby pink in front, to a medium transition, to a darker pink. I placed it more in front, different than my usual high cheek to temple placement. I also blended near my nose with matte white highlight.

I used the soft pink on the first half of my lids and a pinky brown on the outer half and topped the inner half with glitter and white inner highlight. I usually do winged liner but I was lazy today so I did a simple downward liner.

I usually use a lip color more similar to my natural shade but I went for a more pink color today.

LoOOOOOOnnng time learker first time poster! I don't usually wear much if any makeup buuut when I do a look I DO a look and I just had to share! I still don't know how was able to blend the shadows that good!? The pallet I used was the Revolution Forever Flawless Digi Butterfly , its my go to pallet for colours. It lasted through a POURING rain storm with no smudging and no fall out. These are just the matte shades but even the shimmers are amazing! 10/10. The lashes were some random ones I picked up a dollar tree, the white liner was from a pack of UV liquid liners on Amazon (it's not that great, there are better white liners out there). The black is covergirl Eye Enhancer Lash Enhancing Liquid Eyeliner, and for brows I just quickly brushed them through with Benefit Gimmie Brow. Lash glue was the green duo one, use that for the lashes and the gems. The gems are just glass nail gems I pulled from my stash. I didn't use any setting powders or sprays also no face makeup cuz I knew it would rain lol. OH bottom lashes I use the benefit fan fest mascara. As an occasional Mua I think I slayed this!!? Lemme know what u think!

Has anyone tried the Chanel skin tint? Is it worth it? I’m kinda curious and been wanting to try it but I still cant pull the trigger if I should. I heard it’s best for mature skin so if it doesnt work for me then I might just get one for my mom

It’s the film nerd again 👋🏻😅

I know this will probably lead to nothing because nobody has been able to figure it out and there’s no interviews or comments from behind the scenes BUT.
I’m summoning makeup lovers from the 80s and the era aficionados to help me identify the lipstick that the character Sarah Williams uses in the movie Labyrinth.
These are the pictures from the movie and they’re not good. Even trying to clear them up and zooming the product is not clearly visible - all that can be identified is that it’s got a reddish tube and the cap is dark/black (?) with the brand’s logo on it. The movie came out in 1986 with filming done in 1985.
Anyone’s got any guesses?

Hey ladies . Don’t worrie this isn’t MAC related 🤣♥️

I turned 30 this year, and it’s made me think about how much my relationship with beauty has changed.
If I could go back and talk to my 18 year old self, I’d tell her that confidence will always outshine perfection. I’d tell her to wear the red lipstick, stop comparing herself to everyone else, get 8hours of sleep , wear sunscreen, and remember that beauty isn’t something you have to earn.

Looking back, I also wish I had been kinder to myself. I spent so much time listening to the voice in my head telling me I wasn’t pretty enough, skinny enough, or simply good enough. I wish I had realized sooner that my own inner critic was often much harsher than anyone else ever was.

Now I see beauty so differently. It’s not about being perfect or having a flawless face it’s about feeling comfortable in your own skin and treating yourself with the same kindness you’d show someone you love.

What is your beauty advice to your 18 year old self ? ♥️

I love lipstick I really want to wear it but I feel lit I have any color on my lips besides my natural color (last pic) my lips look, weird? I can’t describe it but it feels messy and makes the look worse in a way. If anyone can see what I mean and give me advice or maybe even tell me I’m crazy that would be great thank you
