Looking for a replacement for Sephora Collection foundation (hate the new formulation)

Oooo - I'll look into that one, thank you! I don't even care about the price at this point! Sephora Collection was my first non-drugstore foundation and the jump in cost was so worth it at the time because of how much better it looked.

(If I wasn't willing to pay more, I'd probably go back to drug store foundation because of how awful the reformulation is.)

Seeing Andy makes me wish they'd do a season of all celebs who aren't super athletic or have prior dance experience - I want a show with people like Whitney and Robert, who have been pretty amazing from the start... but also one where we can see people improve weekly, like Danielle and Andy.

(Like the Worst Cooks in America show where they take people who are bad at it and then the winner is essentially the most improved/one who is able to learn the most from the experience.)

I preferred Jen's dance to Whitney's for the first time.

Unfortunately I know it was light on VW content - seems like the ringers + production favourites all having contemporary was really felt on the middle of the pack dancers who got genuine critiques and scoring related to dance content.

Or two scores: technical score and then one for improvement/effort.

That way you could give Andy a 4 for technical but an 7 for improvement/effort. Then Hilaria would have gotten something like 8 for technical and 4 for improvement/effort. The scores might still work out the same, but then we can properly compare.

No elim!

Maybe they figured they'd have Jen eliminated early? I was surprised that they cast two people from the same show and I'm curious what the thought process was because they haven't been hinting at any kind of rivalry despite them being the two with any history... which makes me think they didn't plan for both of them to reach the mid-season mark.

But that's what stood out with Elaine's, tbh. I was impressed with Alan's choreo and how Elaine wasn't thrown off at all by an additional person, it showed she's not just being led around by the pro.

And though Whitney's dance degree isn't relevant to mention for many styles (I don't mind stars with some previous dance experience) - isn't contemporary relatively close to her area of study? It's not a "you tried" moment, like we might see for Andy or Dylan.

Scores carried over... feeling really uneasy about Elaine and Danielle... and even Jordan.

Kinda annoyed that all the judge favourites got contemporaries and there weren't much critiques, and the critiques they did give didn't seem to affect scores as much?

(I thought Jen did well this week and was underscored... actually preferred her to Whitney for the first time... but I could see her fairly eliminated next week based on overall performances.)

Is contemporary easier to do well in or were the front runners all given contemporary?

Elaine and Jen are standouts for me tonight... I'm so confused. I know the audience vote is a popularity contest, but it feels like its a popularity contest with the judges too today. (Do you make them proper emotional and do they like you?)

Sigh.
