I'm going to share yesterday's FOTD per the request of Ms. /u/kittyvisage so she can see UD lipstick in Native on mah face.
COSTCO currently offers a brush and the compact for $32.99. The compact itself (NOT including the brush) is also sold at Sephora for $44. I would go with COSTCO's offer because it also offers a brush.
I usually don't take pictures of my whole face, but I do take pictures of my eye(s).

I picked up a couple of the new Revlon Matte Balms - Unapologetic and Standout. I love them! Swatches and FOTD with Standout here. The swatches are just one quick swipe, and they are totally opaque.
I was a bit nervous since they aren't called "Balm Stains" like the original ones, but the color really does stick around. I swatched them on my arm when I first woke up yesterday, wiped them off after 20 minutes, and I could still see the spots when I woke up this morning. Granted I didn't really scrub at them, but they lasted through showering and doing dishes. Today is the first day I've worn one, and though there are dark pinkish smears on my coffee cup, my lips still look good. We'll see how they wear throughout the day, but so far I would totally recommend!
EDIT: Standout held up well to coffee, but I definitely had to reapply after lunch. Granted, I did eat Chinese food, so it may have held up to crackers and hummus and water with a straw. Even after Chinese, I felt like I could have swiped on a slightly tinted balm without a mirror to smooth things out if I needed to and it would've looked okay.
Call your local COSTCO, give them the item number (#355362), and they'll tell you where you can get it. You can also get it thru the website if you want to save gas. They also have Kevin Aucoin too.
There are a bunch of super cute (and cheap) ones on Etsy and a lot of the sellers let you pick which fabrics you want
If I had a muji store, I would be all over that. I don't so I just look on amazon, or order from Qosmedix. I have a small bottle for alcohol and brush cleaner. I depot skincare. I use Viewset for lipsticks. My foundations are already in palettes. The biggest change in weight was to buy some of these little cosmetic jars on Amazon like this - but I get the type with the clear lids and putting loose powders, and other skincare into them so I don't have giant bottles in my kit. You use so little that you can easily refill when you need to. Hope that helps!
edit: fudged the question form
Question/Concern: Brow CC: shape, colour, technique all that jazz. They’re patchy and bald in places, so essentially a comb-over right now, but I do enjoy the straight shape (I also haven’t cleaned them up in a while in case I want to re-shape). What could be improved from my current routine (photos below)? Product recommendations for a similar shade, available in the UK? Cream if it exists, powder / pencil are good too, but I like painting it on and the definition I can get.
Skin tone/Undertone: pale neutral leaning yellow, ~NC10
Skin type: Dry, dehydrated
Allergies (if applicable): none
Budget (if applicable): around £20
Previous Products (if applicable): Currently using Maybelline colour tattoo in permenant taupe. Gets stuck on the hairs and can be patchy.
Makeup Experience: 7
Picture: brow b&a
Well, I'm on a no-buy, but my mommy gave me a gift card & took me shopping today, so that doesn't count as breaking my no-buy, right? Right?! Anyway, we went to Ulta and I finally jumped on the NYX Matte Lip Cream train. All of this was under $40 with the usual $3.50 off coupon. Also I have now reached platinum status at Ulta. Don't know if I'm proud of that or not...
Are we allowed to include pics? Screw it, I'm including pics. I'm just overly excited, mkay?
NYX Pore Filler
NYX Stay Matte But Not Flat liquid Foundation in SMF03 Natural (really hoping this shade matches, Findation told me this one would match and I tried the tester in store, but you know how those lights are :/)
NYX Collection Noir Liquid Black Liner
NYX Matte Lip Cream in Amsterdam and Monte Carlo (NYX lip products are currently buy one, get one 50% off at Ulta)
Freeman Feeling Beautiful Facial Clay Masks in Chocolate & Strawberry and Mint & Lemon (these are currently buy one get one free at Ulta)
Halloween Wipes makeup remover wipes (these were the cheapest pack of wipes they had so I said "What the hell" and decided to try them)
i used this loose glitter with bitzy glitter glue (can’t find an amazon link, but i know they sell it at sally’s!) i just pat the glitter on a thin layer of the glue and brush off the excess with a fluffy brush :)
I have this exact palette (even tho my eyes are brown lol) and I love it. It is kinda small tho.
I do! I've been meaning to do a full review. In the meantime, here are some pictures.
It's very soft and well-shaped. I mostly use it for finishing powder, but I've also used it for contouring and highlighting and it worked well. You can use it for blush, but it's a little awkward and the blush also needs to be fairly pigmented.
In addition to the perfume I recommended above, you could try Orange Thyme lip balm in Lemon Creme or JR Watkins lemon hand cream (my favorite).
Looks like some sort of blue based red lip stain. Maybe something like this NYX one ? (color is Stamina if the link doesn't work properly)

As another commenter said, curling your lashes before you add mascara really helps! You can also heat up your eyelash curler (I like to run it under hot water or use a blow dryer). Also, you might want to consider buying this. It is amazing and holds the curl for so long!
FX Makeup Question: Interested in a white face for Halloween, well Comic Con. I watched a YT tutorial and she used this face paint and it looked great! Also watched another tutorial and he used this one in 070. Does anyone have any experience w/ this? Any tips or tricks? Tips on setting it? One guy set it w/ a loose powder, pressed white foundation powder, then baby powder. Does it take that much? Thanks bunches!
I show my makeup storage in my makeup collection videos if you want to see it in action. I use the Seville Classics 10 drawer system bought off Amazon. It works well but the plastic drawers can get shaved from the metal when you are pushing them back in if you don't lift the drawer up while you push back. I am looking for something a bit better but for now this works perfectly.
Is this the same bottle?
