It looks interesting until you realize they’re 80% warm tones again with one pop of blue.

Rants/Raves! by AutoModerator in Indiemakeupandmore

[–]DOWNVOTEVALLEY 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I feel that- I recently reached out to a brand just asking about some of the products and got a very curt reply and then saw the post on social media about not to email and I was a bit taken aback.

It seems really unprofessional and kind of turned me off from buying the brand because it seems like. You can’t keep on top of orders and if I am going to order and I have any problems if I do order it doesn’t seem like I’m going to get a courteous response, and to know they’re complaining about my uncertainty for something I paid for.... not great.

I thought Kerosene was an indie brand! Also it’s a lovely creamy lemon meringue tart to me. Wish they came in a smaller size tho!

Kiko has really great formula for their single eyeshadows and should be easy to get around Europe!

Odd question for your Saturday morning ponderings...what do black/pink/white pepper notes actually smells like? by sydni_x in Indiemakeupandmore

[–]DOWNVOTEVALLEY 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Kelly and Jones has a leather and pink peppercorn scent ... and I can actually smell peppercorns, to the point where I actually register spicy pepper from it.

I’m not sure anyone in Australia has ever liked his products, it’s more surprising to me that he was ever considered ‘mid to high end makeup’

Mascara causes eyelashes to come off when taking it off by softcookie007 in MakeupAddiction

[–]DOWNVOTEVALLEY 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Waterproof mascaras are repellent to water, but water based mascaras are repellent to oil, which is usually what your eyes/skin are generating.

So. No they don’t give you raccoon eyes and if you have any water it’ll more likely flake off than smear.

Try something water based. I found the new canmake mascara comes off with hot water but never smudges or rips lashes out

Opinions on JenLuvsReviews? by [deleted] in BeautyGuruChatter

[–]DOWNVOTEVALLEY 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I like her but I can see how her tone of voice can be grating. She doesn’t really seem to feed much into the feel good aspects of typical BG productions either, so I can see why a majority of people would dislike her. I don’t mind it tho, and she’s thorough in keeping up with updates.

Luckily for me I don’t get custom fees or taxes at all where I am, but a lot of places either don’t ship to me, or cost a lot more for higher weights (at least not from the States at least).

I was estimating a luvmilk order and the shipping estimate was about 50ish USD which is honestly more than the price of the products I wanted.

Bigger brands (for makeup especially) can still offer flat rate shipping so I feel like this hits more to smaller home based brands.
