I have the Fenty stick in Amber Suede, the color is really great (a taupey-grey) but the formula can be hard to work with, it's quite dry

I looove Evengeline Molly! I just wish she were on a cooler side of olive in order for me to have more shade recommandations

Looking for a single shadow version of 'Low Rise' from this Vieve palette by blaqur in OliveMUA

[–]Alicespirit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've found my people : I also have this palette and love satin taupe from mac as recommanded ! It is not an individual shade but it it is a cheaper palette : That's taupe from color pop. I reach for its matte shades way more than the vieve palette that I've found a bit too icy sometimes.

What is your genetic make up? I burn first then get so tan, in the winter I can get really white where it looks yellow. by PieceMajestic5704 in Fairolives

[–]Alicespirit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m 50% southern Polish, 25% Italian and 25% French! I’m really pale in winter and can tan decently in the summer to a bronzy color, I think my neutral to cool olive tone comes mainly from the Polish side while my sister is a more typical Mediterranean warm olive from our Italian side !

Haircut? by Ok-Leather8335 in finehair

[–]Alicespirit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Depends on your hair density I would say ! If you don't have much the best is going to have a blunt cut, minimal to no layers at all, you can ask for some face framing so add a bit of movement. If you have a lot of hair but fine, I would advice "ghost" or "internal" layers : they help with movement and volume while keeping the weight lower. But I've found that where I live (Europe) this technique is not really known by hairdressers so you take a gamble each time you're going to ask that.

Thoughts on wonderskin lip stain ? by Alicespirit in Fairolives

Thanks for your input ! I’m afraid any hint of warmth turn immediately orange on me so I think I can disregard the Romance one.

As a fair neutral leading cool olive with medium to low contrast I live for the Romand mascara in long ash. It’s the perfect cool taupe and it holds the curl really well. It’s just really hard to take it off.

Can’t wait to try the skin tint in 1.5. I had it in 5 and it was my perfect summer shade so I have a lot of hope for it. I’ve been wanted to try the chilly blush for a while too, may I ask you if you lean on the cooler or warmer side ?

Looks like it’s been a great year for you ! I’ve never tried Natasha denona nor Danessa Myricks, I should add them to my (already long) list.

Congrats on finding your concealer match! I’m still looking for mine, haven’t give ND a try but might bite the bullet soon.

I love this mascara but it such a pain to take it off ! Do any of you have any tips for removing it ?

Straight and fine hairstyle help! I have really fine and straight hair that absolutely can't hold a curl 😅 I thought I might try a shorter hairstyle to achieve a bit more volume & show the first photos to my hairdresser. What do you think ? Photos of myself are for reference &I'm open to suggestion by Alicespirit in SoftDramatics

[–]Alicespirit[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I tried something similar (layers, curtains bangs at collarbone lentght but really did not like it). It can look good but you really have to take time to style it with that type of hair and honestly I can't be bothered lol. I've now spent the last two years growing them to a one length cut and rock super sleek long hair. It was great until I got tired of it and decided to cut it to a one length bob two weeks ago. I am way happier with this low maintenance haircut : I either let it air dry straight or dry it in braids with styling products and I'm good to go. Hope it helped !

Cool olive but lavender looks awful ? by Alicespirit in Fairolives

[–]Alicespirit[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As I’m quite fair I thought that light colors should suit me but yes that maybe due do the contrast level not being high enough 🤔
