I thought that the Confidence in a Cream was $38.

 

Nope.  It's $48.

 

I just dropped $74 on that and Benefit's Erase Paste.  :blush:

By the way, I got the loreal lumi cushion!!! It is indeed really good!!! But i'm using it for the 4-5 times today, and I dont know how long it's gonna last, I suspect not much longer.. :c

 

It has sooooo little product. It's like 0.5 fl oz.

I really love the foundation in the lumi cushion, but I have the same problem. The cushion makes it impossible to actually get much product on your brush, so you need to constantly go back and re-apply. It's SO tedious. The other downfall (And this is me, personally) is that it doesn't have any spf in it. But I might just be a little spoiled on Smashbox Liquid Halo... >.>

lol i actually do like the little applicator it came with - i thought it would be tedious but it works quite well at covering pores and giving an even application. 

 

How is Smashbox Liquid Halo? I've heard good things!

[LiadansWhisper]

I'm thinking I might want one of these...

Sorry, I only missed this post by a million years >.> Liquid Halo is a REALLY nice, light coverage foundation (And again, it has the spf, which is amazing.) It sheers out really nicely for a good, natural look without looking cake-y or patchy.

I've heard these can be a pain to use. Apparently they get all muddy due to not being in separate pans.

If you get it, tell us how it works out! The colors look really nice.

I've also heard that, and that the quality is inconsistent (like the Graphite one is pretty universally panned), but this particular one (Color Field) is supposedly one of the best ones. I've also heard the shadows are extremely soft, similar to Lorac shadows.

I've only used Lorac's skinny palette in nude once, on my mother, so I'm not super familiar with their shadows. @__@;

i LOVE lorac shadows. speaking of which, lorac pro 3 is coming out soon.... >_> seriously considering it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lfHI98dQyaw Tati's review only encouraged me more

Also has anyone been following the becca X Jaclyn Hill collection?

http://www.sephora.com/becca-jaclyn-hill-champagne-collection-face-palette-P409115?skuId=1830835&om_mmc=oth-email-mobileappshare

 

what do you think?!

 

I am /strongly/ considering it too. I already have champagne pop which came in the earlier becca x jaclyn highlighter palette and i LOVE it, and already hit pan maybe just a month and half into it 

[LiadansWhisper]

The thing with the Lora 3 is....how is it different from Unzipped or Unzipped Gold?

[Sukaaretto Ueno]

The thing with the Lora 3 is....how is it different from Unzipped or Unzipped Gold?

What I keep asking myself is...how are all the neutral palettes different from each other? 

And than at the end of the day i have like 8 of them, all "neutral, nude, warm bronze, match with everything" palettes

 

Though these two colors: amethyst and rose bronze(http://www.budgetbeautyblog.com/2016/05/lorac-pro-3-palette-swatches.html) are i'm really eyeing the palette for. Reminds me of my nars kuala lumpur - but just warmer and bronzier../still debating/

[Chidori]

 

I am considering this by Stila. Not sure I really need it tho, biggest skin problem I think I have is a little bit of under eye color.

 

I am still also trying to behave..currently on a No buy.

At least my beauty boxes tide me over...

I swear by Benefit's Erase Paste. If your only issue is under eye color, that might be a cheaper alternative.

Aw man, I'd really consider buying that if I had the extra funds. ><;

 

I too have Champagne Pop. I love it and have been complemented on it before!

Yeah, depend on what your needs are - if it's color correcting, i would something like this http://www.sephora.com/bright-future-color-correctors-P403328?skuId=1735349&icid2=D=c6:products%20grid:p403328 if you know exactly what color you want (orange for under eye, blue of redness around the nose area, etc... 

 

Though that palette looks fun with so many choices

I have tried that! I can't recall how it worked for me tho. I still prob have it somewhere, not sure if it is good anymore >.>

 

One of my problems is I am pretty pale and stay that way

The UD Gwen Stefani Ltd Ed palette is on sale for $25 on Ulta, Sephora, and Urbandecay.com. It was originally $59.

[LadyRochester]

I live in Uruguay, so brands here are either super high end or super shitty. There's no in-between. Needless to say, if you like make-up, it gets really pricey, especially because our import taxes are ridiculously high. I am a sucker for golden/champagne/rose/copper tones. I'm super pale and I think they are very flattering colours. My most recent purchases were two:

 

Chanel Quad Eyeshadow - Tisse Vendome (204)

 

The colours of these eyeshadows are super delicate and pigmented. They are a little powdery, but they tend to stay on the lid even with minimal/no primer. 

 

 

Lancome Hypnose Dazzling Cream Eyeshadow - Brun Cabas (205)

 

It is super red and coppery, but it's so flattering on every eye color/skintone. The texture is very smooth (mousse-y), and it packs on the lid quite beautifully. This is one of my favorites. It's super practical and it's just gorgeous.

 

 

 

 

I would kill to have the Naked 3 palette from Urban Decay, but they don't sell UD stuff in Uruguay, which makes me really sad as it is by far the most gorgeous palette I've ever seen. 

 

 

 

All the shades in this palette are just stunning, especially Dust, Trick, Liar, and Mugshot. It kills me that I can't buy this where I live. :cry:

yiiiis - i have way too many shadows that are just "rose gold" toned. I don't know if you have access to lorac or not (or whether you can get it via international shipping), but if you do - the lorac unzipped eyeshadow palette is mentioned so much in this category and I would totally get it if I didn't have naked 3. As they are quite similar but in my opinion I would use every shade in the unzipped palette and I can't say the same for naked 3! The glittery shades can be a bit too much for every day look and they can get very powdery.

They didn't have it at my local Sephora and I'm not buying it if I can't swatch it first.
