What is it?!?!?

I think it's an eyeshadow palette... I can't post a pic but there's an inside view on Trendmood's Instagram. I don't love it.

[secretlyevil]

Ah, here is a peek inside. Meh, not super excited.

I don't care if Temptalia goes all

 


on this palette. I would never buy it because that packaging is the ugliest packaging I have ever seen.  It's like if a Victoria's Secret store and John Gosselin's closet threw up all over each other.

SERIOUSLY?!?

I'm getting Botox next week. I'm pretty excited and hoping I'll look a little closer to my real age without this massive wrinkle in my forehead. I don't have 11's. I have a really deep 1. Sigh.

Urban Decay tweeted that they're releasing liquid moonstone shades later this year. Bye bye, money!

Same here. Disappointing.

Yes, now that I've seen the inside, I'm meh. Which is good for my wallet.

Saw this on reddit, and thought of the original makeup thread.

ANNNNND I'm dead. Same makeup look every single time, the only thing that changes is her headband color.

The headband is truly one of the great mysteries of our time.

I picked up two samples of the UD All Nighter because I just couldn't decide on a perfect match. Neither one is really perfect (3.5 and 4), but mixed together they are, so I either go with the lighter shade and warm it up with bronzer or both if I end up buying it, ugh.

I am only on day two of trying it out and I LOVE the coverage, so little goes a long way, however I am not sure it works well with my skin. I am doing my normal priming and setting routine that works well for my oily skin in the FL humidity, but here it is 8:12am and I already need to blot because I am oily around my nose.

Anyone else who has super oily skin try it yet?

1. I'm disappointed in the new Urban Decay lipstick formula for the color Streak. It doesn't look the same as their old formula (which was a Sheer Revolution). I think I'm going to return to Ulta because I don't see myself wearing it.

2. I wish everyone would stop saying "collab." LOL.

[mortomo]

I emailed Ulta on Monday regarding not receiving emails and have yet to hear back from them. I'm getting irritated! I have 2000+ points to use and would like to get emails on platinum specials and % off codes.

Sorry, I just needed to vent since no one IRL would understand my frustration!

ETA:  I've checked my spam folder and did a search for 'Ulta' in my email and nothing comes up past 5-23-16.

[veruca5839]

bl, I've been testing out the new UD foundation this week too, and while I like it I don't know if I love it.

I have the same problem with the color match...which I guess I shouldn't be surprised about because I have the same problem with the original Naked foundation. I bought 3.25, but it's a bit too light, but the other shades near that number don't look quite right either. It oxidizes maybe a tiny bit on me.

The coverage is SO good, SO GOOD!...I barely need any concealer.

I don't find that it keeps oil at bay though. I am shiny only a few hours into wearing it. The makeup stays in place and doesn't slide at all, so that's a plus at least. I need to blot/powder a few times a day like I do with any other foundation, so in that respect the UD is really no different for me.

[juliachild]

I just ordered the viseart cashmere palette. It will be my first viseart palette. I'm excited!

Cannot. Fucking. Breathe.

Who made that? That poor soul had so spend all that time on that woman's site.

Honestly, I think that's only a month's worth of selfies.

I need to go to Sephora and get a sample of the UD alnighter. I didn't have any issues when I wore it for a few hours but I can't give my honest opinion about it yet. Coverage like whoa though. I was a 3.0 in this foundation. I'm a 3.5 in my beloved naked foundation.

I'm having Botox done tomorrow (I get it for migraines, but love the cosmetic effect). I had pretty bad 11s for my age before I started, and they have vanished now. Botox is awesome!

[pixy0stix]

I used inglot duraline with a moondust shadow to create a thick liner. It worked out really well.

I just made Rouge again at Sephora. I swear I didn't think I was spending much on makeup there anymore, but somehow $1000 snuck up on me.

I know the feeling. I swore in January I would not make Rouge this year, but I have only $244 to go. Most of that was skin and hair stuff that I can't get at Ulta (fresh, Josie Maran, Drunk Elephant, and Bumble & Bumble).

So I will clear Rouge easily this year. My mom likes makeup gifts for her October birthday, I will need refills of some skin and hair care stuff I like that isn't at Ulta, I want Cover FX drops, and will probably pick up a Bite lipstick or two before the year's end.

ESF fwiw I've gotten all my DE at dermstore for 30% off. It's awesome. Sephora hasn't been offering good enough GWP that I'm willing to pay full price.

But yeah, I'm prolly dropping a fair amount at the Nov sale on bumble and bumble refills, holiday sets, etc.

Yeah, I bought the two serums from Derm store, thanks to this board. I got the hydration gel and a bar of soap at Sephora when there were codes I liked, plus some Ebates money.

The next thing I want is the eye cream, which the Derm store wasn't carrying. If they don't start, I will probably get the eye cream at Sephora during the sale.

Oooh. Urban Decay is coming out with an all matte palette. I'll see if I can snag a pic.

It's like the two basics in one but I think there are a couple of different colors from the previous basics.
