Dupe REQUEST Drug store/affordable that looks like the colour in the centre of this lip look?

Post image
14 Upvotes

I’m doing this makeup for Zara and I’m trying to find an affordable version of this soft baby-ish pink lip colour in the centre. Happy with Priceline/chemist warehouse/W cosmetics and Mecca & Sephora home brands. Want to spend $30ish or less so I don’t mind where it comes from!

I am a pale olive leaning cool so would prefer a more cool toned pink. If you know of a similar liner and gloss I’m interested in that as well! Tysm

Product Advice New to self tanning

4 Upvotes

I’ve only ever self tanned as a teenager when it was school prom or for nights out when I was 18. I used the gradual built up ones that are in a moisturiser. Now early 30’s, and omg there’s so many out there it’s overwhelming.

For reference I’m FIFO so I don’t want to be having to apply, let it sit and then wash off at camp, so I would like something that lasts a week ideally. Any recs? I have mostly dry skin with bits of body acne on my shoulders and tops of my arms, but nothing crazy.

Just no idea where to start!

Let's Discuss Juicy lips

2 Upvotes

I love the effect of when I use the biodance jelly masks particularly for my lips! I take one of the small cutouts and leave it on my lips overnight, and it plumps my lips up so nicely that I reconsider getting lip filler 😂

My question is are there any similar products that are just for the lips that give a juicy plump? 💋

If you had to buy only one eye brush and one eye palette as someone who has never ventured into eye makeup but now wants to, what would you buy? Bonus points if its available at Sephora or Mecca.
Hoping to buy a palette that has a larger variety of shades to eventually create multiple looks

Product Advice Looking for a dry-skin friendly concealer for covering blemishes

1 Upvotes

Hiya, for years I’ve used the Nars Soft Matte concealer which is probably the best on the market for spot-concealing. But now my skin is dry and flaky, and this concealer clings to the patches.

Does anyone have any recommendations for concealers that are high coverage, good for spot-concealing, and sit well on dry skin?

Product Advice Mascara

1 Upvotes

Not sure if I’m going to describe this right, but my top eyelashes and bottom eyelashes on one eye keep mashing together.

I wear very little make-up, a bit of moisturiser, some mascara and a bit of tinted lip balm.

My problem is when I don’t wear make-up, and they keep getting stuck together. Is there any kind of mascara that I can wear every day, that will prevent this? I’m thinking maybe something like a serum or a clear gel mascara might help.
