Please keep discussion on-topic, and if you have general feedback, a product review request, an off-topic question, or need technical support, please contact us!

Please help us streamline the comments' section and be more efficient: double-check the post above for more basic information like pricing, availability, and so on to make sure your question wasn't answered already. Comments alerting us to typos or small errors in the post are appreciated (!) but will typically be removed after errors are fixed (unless a response is needed).

We appreciate enthusiasm for new releases but ask readers to please hold questions regarding if/when a review will be posted as we can't commit to or guarantee product reviews. We don't want to set expectations and then disappoint readers as even products that are swatched don't always end up being reviewed due to time constraints and changes in priorities! Thank you for understanding!

Your skin tone/coloring: Pale/yellow, dark hair, blue eyes

Three products you couldn’t put down this month? Essence’s under eye corrector with CBD or whatever, CoverFX Soft Peach blush duo, and LA Girl Shockwave black liner

Favorite cheek products this month? Aside from the CoverFX duo, probably Becca Moonstone. It’s a classic for a reason.

Favorite eye products this month? ABH eyeshadow primer, Natasha Denona Metropolis, Pat McGrath Divine Rose II. They’re all pretty new to me, but they are so, so good.

Your skin tone/coloring: pale, cool
Three products you couldn’t put down this month? Sephora Cappuccino pencil liner, Becca Backlight Priming Filter, Dior Jungle 5-pan
Favorite cheek products this month? What’s a cheek product and why do people use it? Just kidding – probably MAC Hushabye Mineral Blush. It’s not really a favourite but I figured I’d start using it as it has been sitting around, ignored and neglected, for quite some time!
Favorite eye products this month? In addition to Dior Jungle, surprisingly it’s the Nars Old Church Street duo that I picked up for cheap a month or so back. I never thought I’d like it so much or find it so eminently wearable.

Coloring: yellow-neutral (still, no sun LOL!), PMG Light medium 13 is just right 😉

This month hasn’t been a big makeup month, but I’ll try: 1.) day and night skin care – Hema Love Korean Beauty (a shame they stopped the line) High Moisture Cream & Laneige Water Sleep Mask 2.) Kiko Skin Tome Foundation in Neutral 50 (trying to finish it and it’s not bad at all) 3.) Black ricin, jojoba oil & coconut oil-cream for my hair (menopause put a whooping on it and it’s become super dry and brittle.)

Cheeks : Definitely Aerin Lips & Cheeks 01 Natural (another shame that it’s discontinued).

Eye products : Still my fav makeup product though I’m broadening my tastes. No favorites; however, I’m trying two new Karla Store Cosmetics multi chromes and they’re not bad at all. Neverland (in pressed powder) and Lullaby (in loose powder). With a base or fixing medium they are wow! And the loose is a tad better than the pressed version.
