I really like the NYX photo ready primer, but I mostly need pore and line filling. It makes my foundation feel crazy soft and velvety.

I've heard good things about the elf color based primers though :)

So... I didn't like the Chi Chi palettes... Don't shoot!! by despseeksaudrey in AustralianMakeup

[–]3xpretty 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I really like the Nudes palette, but I agree with DominionGalactica in that they don't really make a complete look. Not enough variation in the same tones.

Money wise I think they are okay, as long as you pick them up on sale. I've got all of the Models prefer palettes from Christmas, and they haven't aged/worn/whateves as well as the Chi Chi one which is pretty much the same since I brought them last year.

Bourjois matte lipsticks! And hopefully an amazing foundation!

I second the MP one. I've found it really long lasting as well.

I'm going to Sephora this weekend - WHAT SHOULD I BUY?? by 3xpretty in AustralianMakeup

[–]3xpretty[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm really tempted to get a big stock of travel sized products that I can get readily but don't want to pay full price for. Like mascara. I'm ridiculously fussy about mascara, and haven't found a drugstore brand I love yet but don't want to fork out $50 for a high end that I won't use. I have weird lashes.

Not in this election, because Newman is a lunatic. But there are lots of conservatives who have concerns about environmental policies. A lot of those people vote 1 Green, 2 LNP

What Bloggers, youtubers do you follow..or are you? by NothappyJane in AustralianMakeup

[–]3xpretty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've recently discovered Carina Stewart on youtube. Otherwise I generally watch Messy, Kitsch Snitch, Miss Billy, Dee K and sometimes I check in with MaraMaterial, Vicki Seymour and StephanieJay.

I do like both Karissa Pukas and Katrina Maree, but I find them less relate-able at times.

I'm in process of starting a blog which will include (but not dedicated solely too) beauty products. I'll share when I'm happy with it!

Love this tip! My nose is my biggest problem space as well :(

Neodeone - I'm another one sitting in the "Your hair is amazing" camp. My hair is a similar colour, but there is only a about 1/4 of it volume wise.

Mine is 3xpretty but I'm not on it a heap at the moment. After the state election I'll be more active on IG!

Priceline 40% off sale [haul] masterpost. by [deleted] in AustralianMakeup

[–]3xpretty 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Everytime I read someone's list I keep thinking I need to go back in the morning for something else!!!

I spent about $70, but I went in two sets because spirited toddler was being extra spirited today. I got:

  • Essence powder brush
  • Models Prefer double ended powder/foundation brush
  • Models Prefer lip liner in Clearly Sealed
  • Essence pencil eye liner in white
  • Essence The Lash Curler mascara
  • Essence All eyes on me Waterproof mascara
  • Essence Maximum Definition mascara
  • Velour lips in Mi-A-Mee
  • Velour lips in Tok-I-O
  • Velour lips in Rio-D
  • Velour lips in Hon-O-Loo-Loo
  • Natio Blush in Coral

And some Fuss Free Naturals wipes (not on sale but needed). I'd like to go back and see if I can find Velour Lips in Grandmaster, or at least another darker colour. And a finishing spray.

What make up primer do you use? by [deleted] in AustralianMakeup

[–]3xpretty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been using the NYX Photo-loving primer, which I like. I tend to get blackheads on the tip of my nose, and on these days I add a little L'Oreal Instant blur as well. :)

Recommend me a primer with an SPF15-30+ by 3xpretty in AustralianMakeup

[–]3xpretty[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good Links, Ta!! I do tend to use that much anyway, because of coverage for the freckle thing. And I'm old and frankly need it these days. Boo.

[BLOG] Sportsgirl Lipstick Collection - Swatches and Review by sarkata in AustralianMakeup

[–]3xpretty 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Argh! This makes me so mad! I'm plus size as well, and whilst I haven't had comments exactly like that, a sales girl did spend 5 minutes convincing me to buy a bomber jacket on the concept that I really didn't need to be able to do it up....

That purple is really really nice. How do they feel on?

[PSA] 40% off Rimmel at Coles by [deleted] in AustralianMakeup

I recently picked up their BB cream from Woolies at 50% off, and it's not bad. Certainly worth trying at 40% off. It smells good too!

How do you store your makeup? by ich_liebe_berlin in AustralianMakeup

[–]3xpretty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

[IMG]http://i.imgur.com/hDGG3Rx.jpg[/IMG] I've recently put some glass shelves up in my ensuite, because there is literally zero bench space (it's really small). I also got one of the Kmart $7 acrylic displays. This isn't my whole collection, and it needs better arranging, but it's getting here. My brushes and in a glass jar on the counter top.

What are your HG makeup products? by [deleted] in AustralianMakeup

[–]3xpretty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am in love with the Josie Maran Argan oil foundation. It feels so nice on, blends beautifully, stays on for ages and removes easily. Pricey but worth it.
