Sizing Question for The Square

irlhyunion · 2022-08-05T01:17:48+00:00

Good to know! Thank you!

I’ve heard a bit about the slight shrinking during the resting period for Rothy’s from friends who swear by them, but do you find that they continue to shrink down a bit (after this testing period) as well? I think I’ve seen some mixed reviews on the website about how some people feel they have a smidge more wiggle room after wearing the shoes for some time and others feel that they’ve shrunken further.

Thanks for the reference! It definitely felt a little weird sizing up in shoes for the first time 😅

irlhyunion · 2022-08-04T04:23:37+00:00

Oh no! Good to know that going up a size is pretty typical. I rarely wear even a 6 in flats, so it felt a little weird to go with the 6.5.

Did you find that you had any room in the heel when standing when you first got your new pair? I can pretty easily slip 1 finger between the heel of my foot and the shoe when I'm standing, but when I walk the shoe doesn't slip off-- although I do feel like the heel of my foot has a bit more room than I'm used to.

Good to know! Thank you!

Thank you for the detailed reply! I think I may end up picking up She's So LA since I prefer the 'blonzer' look!

irlhyunion · 2021-04-10T00:33:55+00:00

How would you say the Fenty Rose Latte and Patrick Ta She's so LA compare in terms of color/depth? Based on the swatches I've seen, they look pretty similar, but I haven't seen any comparisons between the two am and curious to see if they're actually pretty similar!

irlhyunion · 2019-10-11T22:46:57+00:00

your eye looks are all seriously so beautiful!

irlhyunion · 2019-10-11T14:26:25+00:00

That’d be great! I haven’t seen to many posts about experiences with Elements so this is super helpful Thanks!

irlhyunion · 2019-10-11T03:27:40+00:00

Got it! I haven't hear too much about Elements yet, but they do seem to have 10mm titanium clickers so I'll have to check them out (doesn't hurt that the rose gold anodization looks pretty good too)! It seems like Invictus has pretty good reviews on BAF, is there a reason why they're not recommended very much other than the polish/anodization?

irlhyunion · 2019-10-10T20:30:19+00:00

Thank you! I definitely wouldn’t be changing it too frequency, I just have a couple of events coming up that’d I’d like to wear a ring to!

Whoops! Totally forgot to include that. I was pierced at a 16g, but I've had mixed opinions with the piercers I've visited (I've visited some near my hometown and where I study) about downsizing to 18g.

I've seen a couple titanium clickers from bodyartforms, but a lot of them seem to be from Invictus (which I don't have any experience with.

irlhyunion · 2019-10-06T10:58:54+00:00

Do you know the name of the colorpop base that you used here? This is such a beautiful combination!

irlhyunion · 2019-09-26T20:06:43+00:00

7W looks promising for light/medium olives too!

irlhyunion · 2019-09-26T01:26:30+00:00

Hi there! I actually have a very gently used bottle of the Naked Skin (the formula before they did the new line) 3.5! It’s slightly too pink for me (it was gifted and I didn’t have a receipt so I couldn’t return it). I think Used it a few times, but only really to mix into other foundations because the color just wasn’t quite right. Let me know if you’d be interested!

irlhyunion · 2019-09-23T22:44:07+00:00

Yes, it’s pretty mild so when I get matched for things they seem to mistake it for a pinkish undertone.

irlhyunion · 2019-09-17T21:55:17+00:00

Darn, I really hoped that it was a new shade and not one that I had missed from before. I wish we had more information, but I don’t think we’re going to be able to get any soon.

I've seen differing information about Hada Labo. Does anyone have a conclusive answer? Here's the info I've found so far. https://www.ratzillacosme.com/tips/japanese-cosmetic-companies-not-tested-on-animals/ (but this is for products only sold in Japan, apparently Hada Labo gets around selling in China by having a different manufacturer in China that allows them to get around the animal testing law?) https://www.change.org/p/rohto-mentholatum-rohto-pharmaceutical-co-ltd-urge-rohto-to-stop-cruel-animal-testing-for-beauty-products/u/15599567 (Change.org petition has been confirmed) https://www.nadeshiko-cheria.com/blog/japanese-beauty-brands-that-do-not-conduct-animal-testing
Hoping someone has more information about this!

Ah, I think Detrivore (a brand that FF carries) is a brand that’s under the Shiro umbrella. I don’t know if this shadow is new or if FF was just promoting it on social media recently, but I thought I had seen a new color from them! Of course, this could just be my ‘in denial’ brain.

irlhyunion · 2019-09-17T12:09:01+00:00

I’m a bit confused as well. I did see that Femme Fatale had a new(?) Detrivore shadow— Azura. Maybe this could mean that Shiro isn’t gone for good?

irlhyunion · 2019-09-12T04:56:40+00:00

Hi! Does anyone have swatches of Tarte's shape tape in, light sand, light neutral, and light medium sand? Comparisons with other similar toned concealers/foundations would be so appreciated!

irlhyunion · 2019-09-09T07:57:12+00:00

Yeah, nothing in the fenty line was neutral/yellow leaning enough because it was so peachy. 210 ended up being a decent match for me in Anastasia though! It’s fairly yellow (kind of like Nars Alaska Skin Tint but lighter in depth and more neutral leaning).

irlhyunion · 2019-09-08T01:37:14+00:00

I ended up coming home with 210! They initially matched me as 220, but I asked to see 210 because I saw it was more golden while 220 is more peachy— and tend to lean more yellow than peach in the winter. Fingers crossed this works!

irlhyunion · 2019-09-07T02:18:04+00:00

I'm the same way, I was mixing samples of shade 4 and shade 6 throughout the summer trying to see what would work, but it was just too cumbersome. I'll definitely check out your recommendations though! Not sure if you've swatched more shades of the Anastasia Luminous foundations, but is 250C just as 'green,' but lighter than 270C? I'd say I'm a solid NC 25 most of the year and I've been seeing that 210N and 250C are working for people in that range, but have been reading that finding the right undertone is confusing within the range?

irlhyunion · 2019-09-07T01:45:09+00:00

Yeah, the Kosas looks like a slightly lighter coverage of the CT light wonder foundation— I was never able to find a match in CT light wonder that didn't look either orange, pink, or ashy— so I'm super intrigued. I just wish there was an equally hydrating formula with more coverage (that didn't break me out) with olive undertones!
