What brand do you rarely purchase at full price?

What brand do you rarely purchase at full price?

There aren’t many for me, since I need to purchase sooner rather than later for reviewing purposes (typically!). But if I was strictly a consumer, I don’t know that I’d buy a lot of Pat McGrath… so many 20-30% off sales, which would make me feel comfortable waiting to buy at a discount (plus...

Marc Jacobs Beauty

How do you deal with lip colors that settle or feather?

How do you deal with lip colors that settle or feather?

Thankfully, feathering isn’t something I experience very often, but product that settles into my lip lines… to some degree. For certain types of products, e.g. gloss, I just live with it, but if it’s a lipstick, then I’d try using a lip primer or lip liner underneath to help manage it.
