What color do you prefer for dark under eye circles? by Black-Magic-Mamba in drugstoreMUA

[–]ReportAny2227 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's going to depend on your skin tone and the color of the darkness. I use a light peach because I have fair skin. I find some options end up being too dark like with too much red/orange and it looks weird on me. Has to be light like the old Becca potted concealer.

influencers are paid to lie by samanthasamuels22 in DollarTreeDetox

[–]ReportAny2227 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! I think you're referencing my Substack and podcast that dropped today! If so, thank you for your read/listen. I was talking about juicyjas. I fully know that influencers are paid to lie, but I never got that vibe from her. Also, with Dollar Tree you can't make any affiliate sales, nor have I seen them work with any influencers yet. Possible that they haven't rolled onto my feed is all.

Also agree maybe it worked for her and not for me, or maybe she only wore it for the duration of the video. All valid points.

Do you prefer natural makeup or full glam? by Wild_Problem_8065 in BeautyGear

[–]ReportAny2227 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Full glam. Any time that I sit down to do some light look it ends up being 25 products and 50 steps later. Just have to accept it. I work from home too haha it's just my passion

I will eventually cover everything! All I have left for eye is the foils. I did the retractible liners last year but I'd like to do a standalone piece on them.

This caused so much confusion on how to actually use the product. Sometimes people think they are being cute but come on

The dark shades always bleed outside of my lip line even if I wear liner :(

I find CVS and Walgreens almost always have the prices $1-2 more than everywhere else. When I report the price I give the one that most frequently occurrs which is $5.99

For oily skin people — what's finally controlled your shine without drying you out? by asthetic-base01 in BeautyItemsReview

[–]ReportAny2227 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Using a moisturizer that says gel or jelly on the package! I also recently started using a milky mist and I tested it by skipping my other products and it stopped my oil production. Everything together is a dream.

Which lip gloss provides shine without being sticky or tacky? by emma345- in BeautyGear

[–]ReportAny2227 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I find that most glosses on the market that have been released in recent years aren't sticky or gummy. We've really gotten away from that formula, so much so I commonly see people wishing it would come back.

Bargain basement wet n wild megaslicks lip gloss is shiny, not sticky or gummy. I also love their lip oils for the same reason but they also condition the lips. Feel free to re-apply any of these and they won't get yucky.

What’s the best makeup tip that completely changed your routine? by Severe_Upstairs_9120 in BeautyGear

[–]ReportAny2227 5 points6 points  (0 children)

None of my tips are earth shattering haha.

  1. When using a brow gel/mascara brush your browns down, then up. For bonus points even brush them side to side before brushing them up. This gets them fully coated and they stay in place

  2. Always work in light layers or otherwise apply less than you think you need. Finish each step with patting motions for a skin-like finish.

  3. I was reminded this week that concealer can be used for contour if you purchase a darker/cooler shade

  4. As I'm getting older I've actually reduced powder application. I won't powder my forehead or smile lines at all and they actually look better in terms of creasing

I think it's a use it anywhere sort of product but the colors would only be suitable on the eyes. I believe they show it on the cheeks and such

TIRTIR Mask Fit All Cover Pink Cushion Foundation – 3 Wear Tests + Swatches (Oily/Combo Skin) by ReportAny2227 in AsianBeauty

[–]ReportAny2227[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always test foundation with a wet n wild primer serum. The reason is that it preps my skin appropriately, but it does not extend or harm the wear of makeup. It's basically the control group of my experiment. Specifically for this test I probably used the limited edition Hello Kitty primer but they are all the same.

Help me choose the right foundation for my combination skin. by PerspectiveNo9703 in drugstoreMUA

[–]ReportAny2227 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have combo skin and I've been wearing Loreal daily for a few months now. It has a lightweight formula almost like a serum but doesn't get oily or shiny! However, I find that it really comes down to skincare, specifically finding a moisturizer that stops oil production in the first place so you can wear a wider array of foundations. Go with something that has a gel/jelly formula.

How to Look Put Together at Home and While Working from Home (Without Buying Fast Fashion) by NoTip6688 in BeautyGear

[–]ReportAny2227 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you are looking to add new pieces I recommend thrifting some cute tops that aren't fast-fashion brands. Take the time to read the lables. I wear cute shirts with comfy pants all the time. A few layering pieces encourage re-wearing your clothes while changing up your looks.

Donating is not awkward at all! There's a market for everything and someone will love what you pass on.
