The make up thread

I have some questions if anyone else feels like an endless free ramble about makeup and would like to join me!

Has anyone tried MAC stack mascara? Any good?
And does anyone know of a great highlighter for pale skin?

I have tried the mac stack mascara and I think it goes on really great and looks fantastic but it literally melts!!! I end up looking like a panda after a few hours.

Lisa Eldridge elevated glow is lovely highlighter for fair skin! I have the shade cystal nebula and I’m pale. It can be built up depending on how intense you want it.

Ive tried the mac Stack didn't like it I prefer the Urban Decay lash freak mascara.

Can anyone recommend a lip gloss that they really like? I’ve just bought what I thought was a lip gloss but is actually more a balm (Dior Addict Lip Glow) which is really nice but quite discreet- I was maybe wanting something a bit more obvious for a special event. If relevant, I am super pale skinned (to the extent that I am that pale I often look bordering on poorly…), would love to hear if anyone has a lipgloss they would swear by.

Does that stay put? I used to swear by Perversion but the most recent one I’ve got seems to smudge and flake a lot more.

It satyed pit on my lashes but I think someone said it flaked off on theirs.

Fenty beauty do really nice lip glosses! They also do a range of plumping ones as well. Boots online often have sales on them

Can anyone recommend a really good concealer? Iv got a little blemish that I can't get rid of and jt drives me insane. So I want quite a good concealer just for that area. Any recommendations? Thanks in advance x

I use Too Faced Born This Way if I need something covering up or on nights out as it’s a full coverage one. Mac do a nice full coverage for spot concealing as well it’s in a little round pot. I’ve got a little red birthmark on my cheek and both of these do a good job at hiding it

I’m using Beauty Crop Vitamin Babe at the moment and it’s lovely - full coverage but isn’t cakey and blends well.

Late to the party but I’m very pale and love ofra pillow talk highlighter. I use born this way concealer or urban decay naked concealer.

I really love Mac stack , I'm a mascara addict , I've tried literally every one. My favorite is Charlotte tilbury legendary lashes 2 , Mac stack is a very close second

Did anyone see Lisa Eldridge’s new eyeshadow palettes? I’m tempted by two of them but I’ve so many already although they are lovely.

I liked the tutorial but none of those colour combinations would suit me. I'll probably get the antique green e/s (Madrigal) on its own, as I don't have anything similar and it matches one of the nail polishes in the Chanel x-mas collection which I got.

I liked the Velvet Rain matte lipstick, but I need another red lipstick like I need a hole in the head. Plus her velvet matte formula is very drying for me, so I'll give this a miss.

Does anyone know of a dupe of Glamglow illuminating moisturiser. Or better still a UK stockist! Xx

Does anyone have any recommendations for a CC or BB cream? I have been using a Garnier one for a few years for work but feel like I need more coverage and the colour isn't working for me (I use light but it seems orangey). When I've been googling the one by IT cosmetics pops up a lot but wondered if anyone knows of a dupe or a slightly cheaper alternative?

 

[Chilli_Heeler]

Does anyone have any recommendations for a dupe or alternative version of Urban Decau heavy metal eyeliner? Its out of stock and they dont know when they will get more. I like alot of glitter and want to expand but cant find anything in a wide range of shades.
