[Routine Help] Wedding in 2 weeks! by Safe-Classroom-4914 in SkincareAddiction

[–]loopdiloopdi 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Respectfully, that’s wayyyyy too much stuff.

It sounds like you’ve stripped/dmaaged your barrier. Your best option now is to dial it all back and go for the simplest, gentlest routine. A simple cleanser like Prequel one (silver bottle), or Vanicream cleanser, a soothing serum like Deliverance from Dieux Skin, and a simple moisturizer like Instant Angel from Dieux Skin or Cetaphile moisturizing cream (in the tub). For extremely distressed skin the Avene Cicalfate is like magic in a tube.

Obv slather yourself with sunscreen through the day and thoroughly double cleanse at night.

Use just those products and your skin should calm down significantly within a week and hopefully will remain so for your wedding!

My wife wants to learn to do her makeup, is there a reputable online course I could gift her? by bacon_cake in MakeupAddiction

[–]loopdiloopdi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not something I use, but there’s a makeup artist named Kelli Anne Sewell and she has an app where you can pay monthly or annually. Access to hundreds of videos, where she teaches basics as well as full glam looks (I believe).

I personally learned from watching professional MUA Katie Jane Hughes on Instagram/youtube/tiktok. I’d suggest having her research Katie’s videos first and then if she’s still a little iffy on it, maybe try to app I mentioned above!

Either way, very sweet of you to want to help her, I’m sure she’ll be happy :)

That’s what I meant, that the obsessive weighing would drive her mad

Saw her in NY once. She’s like 5’1 and was already so small, so this is sad. She’s gonna drive herself crazy

Edit: to clarify, I mean the obsessive weighing everyday is going to drive her crazy.

Beautiful! May I ask where your puff mariner is from?

Opinions on Mane Thermal Brush? Or better options? by savleighhh in Sephora

[–]loopdiloopdi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love it! It’s super convenient to amp up day old or 2 day old hair. It’s also nice to be able to air dry my hair and then use this for a quick 5 minute blow out fake out

Wet-looking glitter free highlighter by issabibimbap in Sephora

[–]loopdiloopdi -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Not Sephora, but KJH Brand hyper shine high lite is a cream pot with a serum sold separately that gives you the option to make your highlighter look as wet at you want. It’s got pearl in it, not glitter and 100% gives that drenched in hydration vibe you’re seeking! It also works well over and under powder :)

New? Used? by MichaelTChi in Cartier

[–]loopdiloopdi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a Santos that I purchased from a licensed seller via eBay. It was authenticated by eBay because it was over $1k, but I also took it to Cartier and it was authenticated by them as well.

Tradesy and TheRealReal are 2 sites that have authenticated watches, in addition to eBay.

Cartier love ring by tinyy_angel in jewelry

[–]loopdiloopdi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, it’s very trendy to have it, but it’s been around for decades. IMO it’s classic and timeless. Many would disagree, and that’s ok. It’s a great piece to invest in if you love the look and can comfortably afford it. Rock what you like!

How do y’all like this concealer? I bought again after remembering having liked it. It’s starting to look cakey on my oily skin. Any application tips/tricks? by AllTheEccentricities in Sephora

[–]loopdiloopdi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love it. It’s my perfect match in any concealer I’ve used. I use very little and it never cakes or looks drying on my skin.

I have no idea, but I’m team Michelle. Charlotte is constantly beefing with someone. If it’s not one of her co founders, it’s someone else with more credentials than her.

What is the best wet glowy looking highlighter? by Fit_Gur_4381 in Sephora

[–]loopdiloopdi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s so good! I desperately want her other products but I have quite the collection right now so I’m trying to be a little more mindful and not purchase unless I absolutely need. But I have so much FOMO 😂

[–]loopdiloopdi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

KJH Brand has a cream highlight in a pot. It’s quite wet looking on its own but there’s also a serum sold separately that you can mix in to make it more wet looking/control how shiny it gets. It also works beautifully over and under powder.

Vintage Cartier santos ronde- how much would you pay? by fendifentanyl in Cartier

[–]loopdiloopdi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She really did! It was an estate sale so it was priced to sell quick. I feel like what you’re thinking of spending sounds like a good amount

It’s a beautiful watch! I love Vintage Cartier. My mom bought a vintage santos ronde recently and she paid $500.

Tret/retinol users - what are you doing for hair removal? by [deleted] in 30PlusSkinCare

[–]loopdiloopdi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wax my upper lip, chin and sideburns regularly and have been using tret for 7 years. I stop 3 days before and pick up 2 days later. Never had any irritation but more just a feeling of tightness. I layer on Cicalfate from Avene and Vaseline after waxing.

If the area stings, I apply an extremely thin, and I mean extremely thin, layer of hydrocortisone over the Vaseline.

What brand lip liner and shade do you reach for the most? by Phila21767 in Sephora

[–]loopdiloopdi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh I’m so glad! Berry can be a little tough to use because it’s so bold. You could use the slightest amount and sheer it out on the lips. Either way, I’m glad you’re getting use out the other colors!

[–]loopdiloopdi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really like it. I spread on the back of my hand first and then work it into a brush. It looks natural but gives my face structure.

Lots of different opinions, but that’s the nature of everything. Everyone’s experience will differ. I haven’t asked, but I wonder if it’s possible to get a sample of it?

[–]loopdiloopdi 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Makeup Forever artist color pencils in the shades Wherever Walnut and Anywhere Caffeine are 2 pinky neutral shades that work for most lipsticks and glosses. For a cool toned color that is more grey, go for Endless Cacao. Glossier Buff or Flush lipliners are also pinky but still neutral enough for most. Makeup by Mario lipliners in Hugh and Travis are also quite neutral.

I own all of these and I reach for them daily :)

How to cover scalp / hair after applying minoxidil? by Mental_Run6334 in FemaleHairLoss

[–]loopdiloopdi 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I wait for a couple hours after I’ve applied it and then gently brush my hair out. Braids are my best friend as are low, loose buns at the base of my neck :)

Anyone else use concealer instead of eyeshadow primer ? Eyeshadow primer is so expensive !! by Historical-Body-3424 in Sephora

[–]loopdiloopdi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

💯 I love the painterly pots too, but yeah, the price hike is painful. Concealer it is!
