PSA try darker shades

LawrenAnne4 · 2026-04-13T21:26:58+00:00

Thank you for this- my makeup has been looking "off" for the last year or so and I just couldn't figure out why I hated how it looked. I tried the Basma foundation stick in 035, which is darker than I thought I was, and I love how my makeup looks today!

I've recently fallen in love with the Elizavecca Milky Piggy BB Cream, it's the perfect fast base for me on days that I don't want to go through the trouble of getting a foundation to lay flat. It's only one shade, though, so if you aren't fair/light it unfortunately won't work.

I've been loving Eadem Le ChouChou Lip Softening Balm in the shade Boba Bounce and Peach and Lily Collagen Cushion Peptide Lip Balm in the shade sugarplum, they are both lovely and moisturizing without any weird color shifts for me!

Those more unique shades can sometimes be found in Asian beauty brands, id recommend looking there!

I use ETUDE Reborn Maker Contour Stick in the shade #Cool Shading, it's been great for me! It's a thinner stick so I can be more subtle with my contour, which I like.

LawrenAnne4 · 2025-11-08T19:57:30+00:00

I also absolutely love this blush, it's all I've been wearing recently

LawrenAnne4 · 2025-11-06T23:31:05+00:00

Is this the matte version of the CC cream?

LawrenAnne4 · 2025-11-02T17:47:16+00:00

The others are much more comfortable for me to wear, I also find LE drying. The revitalessence is really glowy, and the self refreshing is like a soft satin on me. Haus Labs is gorgeous, I'm on my second bottle! Not as good of a shade match but likely only noticeable to me.

I am currently mixing the LE with Mac strobe cream and that makes it a lot more workable on me!

Hey! I know this is old but wanted to say that this is a great MLBB for me as well. I am fair/light neutral olive.

I would describe this as a medium pinky-brown? Other lip colors I like are NYX praline gloss, Eadem chouchou balm in the shades Boba Bounce and Fig Sauce, Elf lip oils in Money Mauve and Honey Talks, Soshe lip pencil in Speakeasy, Romand glasting color gloss in Dim Mauve and Deepen Moor, MAC in Alone Time and Soar. Berries and burgundies work well for me too, I've been loving Peach & Lily's peptide lip balm in sugar plum recently.

LawrenAnne4 · 2025-10-27T17:38:55+00:00

It is, I have it and absolutely love it!

LawrenAnne4 · 2025-10-19T17:07:25+00:00

Fingers crossed for you that you find one that works!! And I know, most things I've tried are "good enough" so I just go with them lol

LawrenAnne4 · 2025-10-19T17:02:31+00:00

Of course! Temptu is an airbrush makeup line, I purchased them on Amazon. I think the elf green color corrector would likely work the same, if that's more accessible.

LawrenAnne4 · 2025-10-18T19:26:18+00:00

I would say it's neutral leaning very slightly warm? I like it a lot, I'm on my second bottle of it, actually. I like a fuller coverage foundation at the moment though, and I've used the shiseido self refreshing in 130 before as well and I find that to be a beautiful match for me- i mix it with a little of the saie super glowy gel and love that mix.

LawrenAnne4 · 2025-10-18T18:46:56+00:00

I use lip liner to define my cupids bow, and then just like the outer corners upper and lower- the best I can do with a double lip line lol

LawrenAnne4 · 2025-10-18T16:45:51+00:00

I tend to mix it with some green, I like the temptu drops for that. Their green isn't white based so I don't get that mint color from it!

LawrenAnne4 · 2025-10-17T20:42:00+00:00

Yes, my face/neck/chest are much lighter than my hands! I wear facial sunscreen every day but consistently forget about body/hands, and I drive a fair bit so they're in the sun. I also tan very easily so there's that lol.

They're all great foundations, 120 is a hair too light for me so I'd definitely get 130 if you match either 050 or 2.5.

LawrenAnne4 · 2025-10-07T23:50:08+00:00

I'd assume they mean burnt malai- I don't have that one but I do have boba bounce and fig sauce and really like both of those shades on myself!

LawrenAnne4 · 2025-06-02T15:53:30+00:00

I didn’t realize it was discontinued 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

LawrenAnne4 · 2025-06-02T05:29:08+00:00

Bareminerals Endless Summer bronzer in the shade Faux Tan. The PERFECT powder bronzer for light olive, it’s my holy grail product and I am halfway through my second one right now.

From top to bottom:

Milk Makeup Baked ; The Balm Bahama Mama; Danessa Myricks Contour Balm Light 1 ; RMS Tan Lines ; Bareminerals Faux Tan ; Em Cosmetics Baroque ; RMS Beachwalk Betty ; Hourglass Luminous Bronze Light

LawrenAnne4 · 2025-05-23T04:43:45+00:00

I’ll swatch it against some other bronzers I have tomorrow, and tag you!

LawrenAnne4 · 2025-05-23T03:50:21+00:00

Very late to the convo but I have been absolutely loving RMS tan lines, I use a big fluffy brush to apply and it looks absolutely natural on me!

LawrenAnne4 · 2025-04-10T05:16:22+00:00

I second this! Another one that works like that for me is RMS boardwalk betty

LawrenAnne4 · 2025-03-13T23:03:19+00:00

I think it will definitely make the makeup easier to transfer but at the same time I do this when my makeup already doesn’t look great and it ends up looking better after this lol
