How important is a brand's backstory to you?

How important is a brand's backstory to you?

The more the brand pushes their products because of the backstory, the more I will care. For example, if a brand is talking about sustainability constantly, then it should, at least, feel authentic and align with their general values and why they were founded. I’m more concerned about quality...

What makes you more willing to try out a new brand?

What makes you more willing to try out a new brand?

Once I see feedback from readers who’ve tried out and fallen in love with a brand, I’m more excited and willing to give it a try. I also need to see a decent product range, not hear horror stories about customer service, and not see problematic brand-owner behavior.

Tell us what you love and hate about...

Matte Eyeliners

I love them! I find I reach for both, though I tend to prefer matte eyeliner for when I want medium-dark to deep colors, whether black or brown or color. Matte eyeliners tend to go on more smoothly and can be more pigmented on average.

What will make you lose interest in a brand quickly?

What will make you lose interest in a brand quickly?

When they take a theme and do it to death — e.g. Urban Decay Naked, Pat McGrath Divine Rose, etc. I love a good theme, but I want to see genuine exploration rather than feel like it’s on repeat.

What discontinued product would you love to see revamped and re-released?

What discontinued product would you love to see revamped and re-released?

I would love to see Urban Decay overhaul the Naked series entirely. I’d love to see them embrace their smaller, six-pan palettes and create a core range of Naked palettes that offers all-matte palettes for light, medium, and deeper skin tones (at least three depths) and all-shimmer palettes for...

What brand needs a revamp?

What brand needs a revamp?

Urban Decay. They used to have a really fantastic core range, but they seem to have been slowly discontinuing a lot of it. They’ve also discontinued formulas that were really lovely but never got a real replacement (e.g. Afterglow blushes/highlighters). So little of what they release gives me...
