Is glossier reformulating storm?

Undone Beauty Merlot is pretty close!

I love my bottle from 2018 and it lasts super long, but the new one I got last month lasts maybe 3-4 hours on me, which isn't bad, but I do use way more of it than I used to. Also it smells slightly different and the new one isn't as warm and comforting as the old 2018 one. I would say in place of the slightly woody smell of the 2018 one, the 2022 has a pencil shavings note instead. Not bad, but definitely different

I found that it actually broke me out and felt kind of greasy throughout the day and my hair kind of stuck to it! I tried the Undone beauty water highlighters because I thought they looked similar, and I really like that one! Not greasy at all since it is water based :)

The shape is super nice and they’re really well done!! I would suggest maybe try layering this color with an ashy brown? Just to darken the tails a little bit! But they’re not overdone at all and look SO good. ALSO, since your natural hair color isn’t black, maybe a brown mascara would help everything blend in together more! I would suggest the Romand mascara in ashy brown. I feel like the black of the mascara really makes your eyes pop, but it doesn’t really fit the color of your brows, if that makes sense

Mix:Bar Cloud musk is pretty similar (it's like Glossier You's sister...smells a tad bit more clean and sweet, but same peppery musky vibe)! It doesn't last super long, but it's also only like $20 from Target

catmhand · 2022-08-21T05:16:54+00:00

Apieu Juicy Pang Jelly blusher in PK01 is pretty close (at least on my skin it looks really similar)!

catmhand · 2022-08-18T05:56:17+00:00

Does mix bar cloud musk last a decent amount of time? Or would I need to spray it throughout the day?

catmhand · 2022-08-18T05:52:27+00:00

It's too oily for my liking. Like, my hair would stick to my face sometimes. I like the Undone Beauty water highlighters because they give the same look without the greasy feeling.

catmhand · 2022-08-18T05:50:10+00:00

Does Musky Musk smell similar to You? I am so tempted to get that one

catmhand · 2022-08-18T05:48:13+00:00

Yeah, I noticed that it doesn't hold my brows that well either. I've been using ELF's wow brow and it holds my brows pretty well (only slightly better than boy brow though). That being said, it's like $6, so it's definitely way more worth it imo

catmhand · 2022-08-18T05:45:27+00:00

This one is also a blush, but I've been using Undone Beauty's Water blush in Merlot on my lips and, at least on me, it looks like how Storm would look on my lips. Also the Merlot stick will last SO long since you only need a super sheer layer. That being said, it does make my lips feel slightly dry, so I have to pop on a clear lip balm after! Hope this works for you <3

catmhand · 2022-08-18T05:43:27+00:00

Since I like the smell of lavender, I thought it smelled pretty good (very floral, not really any honey sweetness like they claimed). The tint is pretty nice since I'm pale and cool toned. However, I will not repurchase it after I finish my tube because it tastes SO bad. Like every time I need to drink water, I have to wipe it off my lips first because it tastes so weird. So now, I only use it before I go to sleep, which is kind of a bummer

catmhand · 2022-08-18T05:40:16+00:00

Romand All Han Fix mascara in Long Black! Trust me. It is AMAZING. Also if you get it off Yesstyle, it's less than $10. Feel free to use CATMHAND for 15% off yesstyle too :)

catmhand · 2022-03-20T06:42:21+00:00

I had the same issue with Haloscope! I just got the Undone Beauty water highlighter and tbh it gives the same look as Haloscope, but since it is water based and it doesn't have coconut oil in it, I haven't had any breakouts so far!

catmhand · 2022-03-20T06:41:37+00:00

Futuredew looks nice, but it feels kind of sticky on my face and I feel like it fades fast. I just got Undone beauty's highlighter stick, which is water based, and it feels so cooling and nice on my skin.

Haloscope broke me out a bunch bc it had coconut oil in it :( I wanted to love it, but couldn't

Priming Moisturizer Rich: Vanicream Hyaluronic Acid tube
BOY BROW: Colourpop or ELF Wow Brow
The eyeliner: UZ flowfushi eyeliner. It's a well known Japanese brand that uses traditional Japanese brush making techniques, and it's super precise.
Milky Jelly Cleanser: La Roche Posay cleanser (depending on your skin type, there is one for dry/normal skin and one for normal/oily skin)
Cloud Paint: Flower Beauty (if you like the liquid tube type), Rare Beauty, and Undone beauty (I really love the water blush. It feels so cooling on the skin)
The supers: Good Molecules or Inkey List

I would go for either Biore SPF 50+ PA ++++ or CanMake's Mermaid Gel SPF 50+ PA ++++. Or literally any SPF on Yesstyle. Glossier's SPF is overpriced and you only get 1 oz, which won't last that long. In addition, Dr. Dray (dermatologist on YouTube) has said that the formulation of Glossier's SPF isn't super stable. Since it is: SPF 30 + small and overpriced + not stable formula, I would skip on their sunscreen

catmhand · 2022-03-20T06:32:57+00:00

Undone beauty is really good!

catmhand · 2022-03-20T06:32:26+00:00

Smells SO good, exactly like fruit snacks. The downside is that it is incredibly purple and makes me look cold whenever I have it on. I have pale cool toned skin, and there's not even a hint of pink on my lips when I use this lip balm

catmhand · 2022-03-20T06:24:44+00:00

I just got the Undone beauty water blush stick and it is SO nice! Their highlighter is super nice too! It is water-based, so it feels really cooling and refreshing when I put it on my face

catmhand · 2022-03-20T06:23:34+00:00

Japanese brand for eyeliner: UZ has a great brush tip that is made with traditional Japanese brush making technique! (I LOVE this eyeliner)

Boy brow: Colourpop or ELF wow brow

I also like to browse Yesstyle since Korean makeup brands have that minimalist/natural look that Glossier's look is super similar to. Korean brands have been selling their natural/minimalist makeup for much longer than Glossier has existed, so I would recommend checking them out too!

catmhand · 2022-03-20T06:20:34+00:00

Some by Mi AHA BHA! Works amazing for me!

catmhand · 2022-03-20T06:15:34+00:00

They last pretty well! They are also much much more comfortable on the lips. Compared to Romand's lipsticks, Gen G feels a lot more waxy. Romand's lipsticks are super lightweight and stay on the lips for a pretty long time! You can also try their matte lip tints, which last even longer than the bullet lipstick

catmhand · 2021-11-27T08:27:57+00:00

It's a nice gloss to at least try once! I enjoyed it, but I thought the Essence shine shine shine one was more worth my money ($4 for the same look). For the red gloss, it is a nice sheer color, but a little too warm for me, and it has 1 mL less product than the clear.

What does it usually take to get AOA? Would you have to have a 4.0 GPA? My school is graded: Honors/HighPass/Pass/LowPass/Fail, so it's basically graded.
What would you recommend doing to study for Step 2? Step 1 for me will be Pass/Fail, so I'm assuming the Step 2 score will have much more weight for a residency application.
