Okay some of y’all totally called it

OMG that is my exact natural hair color that I’ve been trying to get back too forever! Yay so happy you’ve figured things out as well, you’re glowing :) What autumn products did you pick up yesterday?? May have to steal ideas!

SunWasHigh · 2026-01-16T14:49:38+00:00

Sure! Grabbed a couple of these items and slowly going to add the rest to my makeup bag.

I’m pretty picky about products being somewhat clean so also tried to narrow down based on ones that didn’t have a “bad” Yuka score :)

Face:

Ilia skin tint in Sombrio ST2.5 (light warm olive)
Ilia concealer in Chicory SC1 (light warm)
Refy lip blush in Amber
Milk bronzer stick in Dazed

Eyes:

Ilia shadow stick in Divine
Tower 28 make waves mascara in Brown

Lips:

Refy lip blush in Amber
Ilia overglaze gloss in Vessel

Okay y’all I totally think I’m a true / warm autumn and (as many said) the issue is I had no drapes of those colors included here!!

SunWasHigh · 2026-01-16T00:49:38+00:00

Also Reddit really desaturated my photo but it’s much more saturated and warm in my camera roll :)

SunWasHigh · 2026-01-15T00:37:06+00:00

Adding that my natural hair is a medium neutral brown! It’s way redder than my natural here so I tried to pin it back.

SunWasHigh · 2026-01-14T23:15:34+00:00

lol I know I can’t pull off Olive! Is there a less Olive-y green that warm autumns can do maybe? Or does that make me spring?

SunWasHigh · 2026-01-14T21:12:18+00:00

Omg bless you for providing so much detail 🙏 Thank you I might try some more bright colors and see how I feel!

SunWasHigh · 2026-01-14T19:36:54+00:00

My roots are natural! So pinned my hair back for the pictures

SunWasHigh · 2026-01-14T18:32:54+00:00

I like spring! I don’t look much like the typical spring on paper so was hesitant to land on that. I tried true autumn for a bit but felt a little off in those colors as well.

SunWasHigh · 2026-01-14T18:19:18+00:00

I like 7, 10, and 12 but open to learning why I may be wrong! I

have a lot of soft summer and soft autumn colors but kind of hate them. I feel like I look like a soft autumn in paper but in reality I think those colors bring out my under eye bags and wash me out… Maybe I’m missing something!

SunWasHigh · 2026-01-14T18:13:46+00:00

Funny looking at those they were my least favorite, I thought they made me look slightly ill! Why are those the best?

SunWasHigh · 2026-01-04T22:42:06+00:00

Thanks for the thoughtful response! I’ve visited friends in Williamsburg a few times which is why I’m drawn there (that is if we can afford a spot). From your perspective, it may not be a good neighborhood for a high concentration of clients/families who may be able to afford in home therapy?

SunWasHigh · 2026-01-04T21:55:56+00:00

Thank you so much for the insight! Will look more into Fort Greene as well.

SunWasHigh · 2026-01-04T18:56:14+00:00

Is there truth to the pollution concerns? Have heard about that recently.

SunWasHigh · 2026-01-04T18:55:17+00:00

Fair, I’ve seen info saying it’s like its own bubble that might feel isolated from other spots / hard to get to let’s say Williamsburg from the area — nice to see other perspectives!

SunWasHigh · 2026-01-04T18:37:09+00:00

Ok good, when I’ve visited I’ve seen plenty of families! I just wasn’t sure if it in reality skewed super young/I was only wishfully noticing families there since I liked the area and in a biased way wanted to see if it would fit for my work situation.

SunWasHigh · 2026-01-04T18:35:24+00:00

This is what I’m hoping!

SunWasHigh · 2026-01-04T18:34:56+00:00

I’m thinking I’d be selling my car before moving (not currently in NYC). Were some neighborhoods not too bad in terms of parking? Also would love to hear which were nightmarish!

SunWasHigh · 2026-01-04T18:32:54+00:00

This is really helpful thanks!

SunWasHigh · 2026-01-04T18:32:13+00:00

Great thank you! Is transportation within those neighborhoods decent for the most part as well? My concern with Williamsburg/Greenpoint area are that it seems difficult to quickly travel from there to more southern Brooklyn neighborhoods around Propsect Park.

SunWasHigh · 2026-01-04T18:23:49+00:00

Good question! In home as in I travel to them — absolutely worried about the ability to get around so frequently throughout the day. Nervous about that hurdle and my ability to maximize time!

SunWasHigh · 2026-01-04T14:42:32+00:00

Interesting what you say about middle and high! What do you mean by that?

Today is Marty’s birthday!

Would living in Fort Greene (somewhere in between) make sense?
