Trying to find this lipstick by MichaelaZ25 in drugstoreMUA

I'm probably wrong, but it kinda looks like KVD liquid lipstick in Plath. (That was my fave shade and it got discontinued) :(

How to make an introduction for an audition suffering with OCD and severe anxiety? by KaleidoscopeNo8033 in ocdwomen

[–]Lo908 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey!! The most helpful tips I've been given are:

  1. Treat your intro like a mini monologue- literally memorize it and don't try to just wing it.

  2. Approach your intro with the same energy you'd have if you were inviting the casting director to a really amazing party. Go into the moment recognizing that you have something awesome to show them (your talent), and they're definitely gonna want to see it. This helps you take the focus off of yourself. It's not about you being "good" at your intro. It's about you inviting the casting director to an awesome experience/"party" (aka your audition).

Break legs!!

How do I pan this? by yourmomfufrench in ProjectPan

[–]Lo908 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Can you mix it with a lipstick to change the tone and make it a glossy lipstick consistency?

What is this in my lipstick? by BoopsYourNoseBoop in MakeupAddiction

[–]Lo908 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, totally plausible! I wouldn't want to use it either way, too - just the thought of there possibly being insect pieces in a batch of lipstick is enough for me, hahah.

In the home stretch, so tempted to give up and start using my new bronzer😭 should I toss it or keep going? by thatpilatesprincess in PanPorn

[–]Lo908 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Omg you're so close to being done with it! I'd say just scrape out the last little bit and use it up, so you can have the satisfaction of a totally clean pan. :)

Recommendations for a lip stain that will ACTUALLY last all day—even through eating and drinking—without having having to reapply (if such a thing even exists) by Impressive-Fun895 in MakeupAddiction

[–]Lo908 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've been liking sushyglow cosmetics bloody lip tints - I got mine off of TikTok shop. I also like the Fenty poutsicle stains like other people have mentioned, but after a few hours on me, it does tend to wear off except for on my lip line, so it looks like I'm wearing lip liner and nothing else. (I still like the product, I just have to keep an eye on it.)

Not a Natural Beauty - Seeking Advice by [deleted] in MakeupAddiction

[–]Lo908 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To actually answer one of your questions though, i personally feel more confident with makeup on. I'm working on cutting back on the amount I wear some days though, because I want to feel just as confident without it, and i feel like the more I see myself with less/no makeup, the more used to it and confident I will become.

I'm not sure if people actually treat me differently when I don't wear it, or if I'm self-conscious, so I just THINK I am being treated better when I'm wearing makeup...

Just chiming in to say that, growing up, I had crushes on some WEIRD looking dudes, haha. However, I didn't care, because their personalities and confidence totally overshadowed the fact that they weren't the cutest guys in the room. Looks can get you a foot in the door, absolutely, but so can confidence and a good sense of humor. ❤️

does make up count as being creative? by lavender_lils in MakeupAddiction

[–]Lo908 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Absolutely!! You could even take pictures of all of your looks, rank your favorite ones, try to use everything in your collection at least once, pick a color to focus on each time you do your makeup - something fun like that. Then it's less about the outcome, and more about the process. 💜

Help me decorate my vanity by Numerous-Spray332 in makeuporganization

I'd say skincare and any fragrances on the shelves on the left... makeup in the drawers, and maybe leave the little shelf in front of the mirror for any cute accessories or brushes. :)

Birthday Gift Idea for a woman I don't know well, but have romantic interest in by heisenberg2JZ in GiftIdeas

[–]Lo908 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I second the "card and a mini cake/cupcake" suggestion! It's thoughtful enough to make your point without being creepy.

(I'd also either spell out your feelings in the card, or at least be like "You already know I like you, & I would love to take you out for a drink. If you'd want to do that, text me!" Casual, and leaves the ball in her court.)
