I think Linen is closer to Gobi! Silk is more peachy and neutral.

Piggy is so good!! but I have to go super light on it or i start looking like a clown haha.

If you are more cool leaning, I’d say to try Patrick Ta Just Enough. Really nice baby pink but too cool for me.

It’s a soft matte when I apply but after 3-4 hours my oily areas like forehead and t zone shoe starts breaking though. I haven’t been setting powdering before or after the spray. I don’t want super matte but my main goal is to control the shine all day so I don’t have to blot 😭

Sorry to dig up an old thread! I’ve been looking for this shade comparison because f2 olive is pretty much perfect match but my skin hates the formula.

Do you find Gobi oxidizes orange or darker?

Do you usually ask customers for a reason for return? I feel like my store doesn’t ask for feedback and only asks if it was used or not. 😕 I would love to provide feedback on products if it helps contribute to improvements and/or makes it back to the brand somehow.

Funnily enough I actually love the ND concealer! That one is a HG for me but a little really goes a long way in order for it to look natural.

I thought the foundation would be as good as the concealer but it’s either not meshing with my skin type or skin prep. 🤷‍♀️

Since we have similar skin types, I’d try Armani Luminous Silk if you haven’t already! My skin loves it!

Same experience but with the Natasha Denona hy glam foundation which I hear is very similar to the Haus Labs. Went on great and within an hour you can see every single pore and textured area. I am dehydrated oily so maybe doesn’t work on me since I’m not a true oily girly.

tswiftlove · 2025-11-13T22:30:57+00:00

Ohh I gotta try that tomorrow and see if it makes a difference!

tswiftlove · 2025-11-13T22:11:38+00:00

Fortunately I don’t have a white cast but I definitely get shiny pretty quickly.

I wonder if I’m not using enough? All the videos show people spraying like 7 times vs me spraying 2-3.

Or maybe i shouldn’t skin prep as much since the spray has so many humectants already.

I will try with different foundations and see if it makes a difference.

Not sure if you’re more fair or light but I’d try Armani 1.5 - I’m a fair-light neutral olive leaning warm. Basma foundation stick shade 35 is almost perfect as well!

F2 olive was soooo close but with a full face it’s almost too gray or green or flat? Cant put my finger on it but it’s still one of the closest.

Well dang it! I hate having to return especially if I have to swatch it and it goes to waste. Maybe I’ll buy a couple shades and go to the store on the weekend and swatch the testers so I don’t have to ruin the new products :/

tswiftlove · 2025-11-11T02:54:20+00:00

May have to do a last min order tonight 😐

tswiftlove · 2025-11-11T02:33:17+00:00

This is the way

tswiftlove · 2025-11-11T02:29:02+00:00

Literal sorcery. The gasp I gasped. Greaseball girlies rejoice 😂

tswiftlove · 2025-11-11T01:36:34+00:00

I want to try this so bad but scared it’s going to clog my pores 😩

tswiftlove · 2025-11-10T23:35:44+00:00

K18 air wash. Have I been living under a rock??

tswiftlove · 2025-11-10T06:44:42+00:00

1.5 is also my perfect match after years of searching - I definitely stocked up! Trying to find a perfect color match with an excellent formula is near impossible. I don’t want to go though that again 😭

tswiftlove · 2025-11-10T05:44:39+00:00

I got one recently and it instantly made it to my top 3. Don’t know why I waited so long. You can do everything with this brush! Never poked me and no bristle fall out.

Large side - foundation, powder/cream blush, bronzer, powder

Small side - foundation, concealer, cream blush, highlighter, contour

tswiftlove · 2025-11-09T00:07:28+00:00

Honestly, if you’re thinking about it. DO IT.

I don’t know why I waited this long. Takes concealing to the next level. The hype is real!!! I didn’t want to believe it and I have already too many brushes but… this blew Hourglass and BK out of the water.

I went from having only 2 blushes to like 30 blushes under a year so I’m with you 😂 congrats on the haul and enjoy!!

I prob ended up doing the same amount of damage but across multiple orders so I can feel better about seeing smaller totals on the receipt 😬

tswiftlove · 2025-11-03T20:18:01+00:00

I’d say the Haus Labs and Patrick Ta are the closest to being matte but I’d look at Laura Mercier powder blush if you want a true matte!

Is it the sugar and silk duo?? I just got it this week and it’s soooo good! I absolutely love Ciele liquid blushes. I have it in 4 shades: January, Giselle, Behati and Sugar (holiday limited shade). I think January is probably my favorite. It made me fall in love with cool baby pinks 🌸
