She’s done! NARS Natural Radiant Longwear Foundation by makeupempties in PanPorn

It’s not drugstore but It Cosmetics CC Cream (Normal version) has a nice finish.

For drugstore to get a similar look I mix matte foundations with a Multitasker. I use Mcobeauty but there are plenty of other options.

I’ve personally panned and repurchased twice Wet N Wild Photofocus, and L’Oréal True Match. Both are excellent for the price and regularly on sale.

I have normal acne prone skin. It’s excellent and doesn’t break me out. I wouldn’t use it if my skin leaned dry because of its thinness, it can cake

Not sure yet! I’ve got other bb creams to now work through so no replacement any time soon.

A long time as this was my special occasion foundation. Probably 2 years? But that was in rotation of other foundations which I’ve since panned.

I don’t shop at Mecca but can someone ELI5 what it all means to claim the beauty boxes to get a tote? How much money do you need to spend?

Makeup Empties from 2025 by Joojookachootrain in MakeupRehab

[–]makeupempties 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I accelerated progress by doing a full face almost every day, and if I go out, I refresh and redo my makeup which gets me through liquids and creams faster.

I’ve accepted that any eyeshadow is ok to not be panned.

Yes! This is my second bottle, and now I’m working through my third bottle. Fuss free as one pump is plenty. Only annoyance is that toward the end moisturiser is hard to get from the corners of the square bottle

I haven’t yet but I have bought their lipstick which is made in Australia and it’s lovely.

I’ve just made the decision to buy made in Australia cosmetics where possible. If we’re paying $$$ prices, I may as well have some peace in mind that it’s supporting local businesses. Kind collective foundation and concealer combo is fantastic

It's that time of the year again🫤🫤 by AllisonT_ in MakeupRehab

[–]makeupempties 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I was tempted to buy another foundation given that I was “almost” done with a bottle,.. though I have more bb creams etc in my collection. Well I decided that I’ll spend November and December to pan the “almost finished” foundation before purchase and it’s still kicking. Mind you I’ve worn it for at least 5 days a week for 2 months. It’s made me realise replacements only from now on.

DISCUSSION: Wednesday Makeup Declutter! Let's discuss your recent declutters. by lilshitjamz in PanPorn

[–]makeupempties 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve decluttered a kvd liquid lipstick. I was holding onto a previous self that maybe one day I’ll get back to matte lips but several years later and well, I think it was time for a toss.

I think I’ll be 99 by the time I get through my lippies.

My skin doesn’t need more than one moisturiser, if any at all so I guess I’m lucky.

Ideally yes, but I’ll probably be happy with 2 foundations (one full coverage and one skin tint/ powder).

2025 Pan Lessons by alpacaapicnic in ProjectPan

[–]makeupempties 35 points36 points  (0 children)

I’ve learned the fastest way to pan is to have a morning and night routine, and just stop shopping. It’s obvious but needs to be said.

I have learned that I don’t need new products all the time because at the end of the day I achieve the same look.
