Defintely agree on this.

I wore Hypnose for years but recently switched to Ilia which I am now LOVING 
Oh god, remember going into MAC when I was a teen too. They were always disinterested witches. And I was going to buy a few things, but they never paid the slightest bit of attention to meYeah I find Charlotte a bit much but the products are almost always great and the staff in my local store are lovely. I don't ever feel intimidated (flashbacks to braving the MAC counter when I was a teenager) or pressured to buy stuff.
I think I missed the ELF controversy, what’s all that about then? Not that I use any.
I like Essence’s lash princess mascara, I also like L’Oréal’s Paradise mascara. A skinny-ish brush is better for length I find. My lashes will naturally go quite spindly and long with the application of nearly any mascara though, I’m quite lucky I guess!

That’s the second time I’ve seen someone cite an ethical issue with ELF here recently- what’s the issue?
They used a comedian in some promo who had made gags previously about DV. I think that’s the issue, but could be wider than that. I don’t know how they handled it after they were pulled up.
I’ve always got on really well with the Nyx micro brow pencil. Been a make up bag staple for a few years for me.
ELF have built themselves a reputation as a company that supports and empowers girls and women, partnering with planned parenthood, girls inc, girls network, sponsoring women's sport etc and making this a focus of their media. They recently released an advert featuring a male comedian who jokes about women victims of DV and made some misogynistic comments in interviews. He doesn't wear make up or have anything to do with make up so isn't an obvious choice for a make up advertising campaign alongside a drag queen, who is a more understandable choice, unless they are suggesting their concealer is so good it covers up black eyes.
When people called them out on using a '
comedian who is in direct opposition to their ethos and condoning DV, they made a statement that just said 'we missed the mark with this one'. Didn't apologise or take the advert down. They presumably thought rage bait would be a good advertising tactic.
The other thing with that ELF add is in the caption on Instagram they had a phone number, like you'd have for like DV hotlines and stuff. They knew what they were doing. Then they issued the most non apology, we're sorry you're offended statement ever.
Definitely a non apology. The word 'sorry' was nowhere to be seen. They don't see they've done anything wrong
Does anyone have a super strong brow gel recommendation? Doesn’t have to be a gel but does have to have strong hold.
ABH brow freeze and elf brow lift do not work on me. Neither do the clear mascara or tinted mascara brow wands. At this point I’m going to use a pritt stick

What works for me - spray some spray gel/ hair spray onto a brush and sweep it through. That should hold it for youDoes anyone have a super strong brow gel recommendation? Doesn’t have to be a gel but does have to have strong hold.

Yuck, that is grim of them to say the least. Thank you for clarifying. I don’t have any ELF products but I absolutely won’t be seeking any out!
benefit 24 hr brow setter is my favourite, lasts all day even through sweating (and I have ridiculously thick brow hairs)Does anyone have a super strong brow gel recommendation? Doesn’t have to be a gel but does have to have strong hold.

So, I gave in and bought the Jones Road WTFoundation. Colour match is perfect, love the smell, makes my skin look great and doesn't clog in my pores like my current foundation, but yes - it does stay quite sticky on my face and is quite shiny.
I use the WTF Foundation too. I like it but don’t really feel it’s a foundation. It’s very rich on my skin and evens out my skin tone.
Yes, it feels like a really rich skin cream. I've tried a dusting of translucent powder on top which has helped. I think i like it- it looks like my skin, but just... nicer.
You’re absolutely right - just like regular skin but nicer! Clever
Looking for a good neck firming cream for my horrible Turkey neck it’s so noticeable and embarrassing
I have tried a few, I had This Works in a subscription box which was pretty good but my most recent one is the spray from Beauty Pie and I find that it’s magic. It’s a temp fix, if you don’t use it every day the effects aren’t there but then when I use it for a day or two again my neck and chest suck right in again.
I recently subscribed to Beauty Pie impulsively after Saturday night wine a few months ago and so far not regretting my pissed up purchase. I’m loving their products.
