I do! I won't say which, because I don't want to be a spammer. BUT I do love face cream. I use it nightly. I love moisturiser in general, too. I use it on my feet and hands. I cannot function without moisturiser.
I've used facial moisturizer for more years than I can remember. Also because I'm very fair skinned and I get sunburn very easily so I use a high factor spf face cream or sunblock on my face summer and winter. I never really used a lot of body lotion or cream until I moved here to the Netherlands where the wind whips up from miles and miles across open countryside before it hits you and dries you out like a dry roasted peanut! Now I have large tubs of a very very nice and very thick cream that moisturizes and keeps my skin nice and soft.

Over to you.
Spammers tend to be more spammy, and spam sooner.
So feel free to share your products.
Heather or I will contact you if we think you have moved from sharing to spamming.
My skin is quite dry so I do use a facial moisturizer twice a day and I am trying to get in the habit of moisturizing my body daily. My skin has improved quite a bit after I've started moisturizing regularly, I also have some serums from the Ordinary and they seem to be doing their jobs.

I am completely with love with lipstick. It is a cosmetic that has fascinated the world since its invention in ancient times.
I have two clear plastic lipstick holders on my dressing table, where I keep all my lipsticks out, ready for use. I love any - and every - colour. I go from reds, to pinks, to nude and corals.
Do you indulge in lipstick? Which is your favourite brand and colour?
Not really. I have only worn it a few times. I mainly wear chapsticks.. some have a tiny tiny to them or sheen, but I also don't use those too often.
I usually like somewhat darker hues of pink... sometimes they have a tinge of more red or purple to them, but still mainly pink. Usually the colors look more natural that I wear. My lip color is pretty dark pink, so I don't see a point in covering it up lol
Yes I do. Before the pandemic it was an everyday thing for me and I am sure it will be again once it is over. Colors, mostly reds. Brands, favorite right now, Charlotte Tilbury.
Yes! I love lipstick, I just purchased one the other day and it's a perfect fuchsia/magenta color I have always wanted. Pretty sheer and buildable too.

I love Max Factor and L'Oreal Infallible foundations.
The first is much paler than the second. BUT Infallible foundation goes on like butter: it is seriously gorgeous. I use a professional make up brush to apply my foundation. This helps the product glide on smoothly and blend into the skin. It is worth spending extra for a quality foundation brush.
When I am feeling sweaty - especially in summer - I use a Rimmel pressed powder. I use a pressed powder sponge to apply it: your local chemist will sell the sponge.
I look forward to reading what your favourite foundation and pressed powders are!
I tend to use Collection 2000 foundation and Mac powder. The foundation goes on with fingers and the powder goes on with a brush. The brush doesn't have a branding on it.
I use Garnier BB cream and Rimmel powder. I tend to use fingers with the cream and a sponge for the powder. If I am really going to town I do have other creams for colour toning etc but only use them occasionally.

I am wearing foundation now. It doesn't quite match my skin, though. What do I do? I have two shades. Perhaps I should blend them on the back of my hand and apply it? I do use a proper foundation brush. However, I've been a bit heavy handed with it!
I will keep practising until I get my foundation right.
I have a bb cream by Skinfood.. Mushroom multi bb cream with spf 20. I also have a cc cream by Andalou naturals with spf 30.. it has rose smell to it. I don't use either of them much, but they both have a slight tint to them if I want a little extra correction or smoothness going on.
Otherwise, I use a 4-in-1 powder by PUR... Pressed mineral makeup with spf 15. I use it alone most of the time, and it is good enough, but it also pairs well with what I mentioned above. It does probably look slightly more powdery if your skin is dry, which is why it's good to use it with something underneath, but you don't have to really.

I don't wear makeup often as I have no place to go and I work in conditions that are not suitable to makeup.
My foundation liquid is Covergirl CG Smoothers tinted moisturizer. I like it because then when I put my powder foundation on I look less like the Crypt Keeper.
My current powder foundation is L'OREAL True Match. Both foundations are light tones because I'm soooooooooo white. LOL!
I like colors that are more natural but I enjoy a little pop around the eyes because they're my best feature.
Right now my blush is tender rose. Also a L'OREAL True Match.
My eye colors are Covergirl Trunaked Queenship at the moment. Sometimes I like sets with purples, fuchsias and blues. imgur.com/Mi3cFU9
I prefer light frosty lipsticks. My current is a light pink called Blush. L'OREAL Infallable 8HR lip gloss though I have no illusions to the fact it won't last that long. LOL!
For my eyes I have Covergirl Lash Blast Volume in Waterproof. I have next to no lashes so not one single mascara can help make them look longer. Not without requiring several coats which makes my lashes break. I have this because I'm going to try magnetic false lashes soon. I got Eylure PROmagnetic liner with the lashes. I'm giving the magnetic liner a 24 hr skin test first. I went for the wispy ones. They supposedly have up to 15 wears a set and they give you 2 sets. They had some cheaper ones but nor sure about the amount of times they can be worn.
When I get myself all dolled up I'll take a photo or two and share them with you guys.

I've never even thought of trying magnetic lashes.
I don't know about magentic lashes but I have tried magnetic earrings in the past. They can get pretty painful after more than a couple of hours or so. I am not sure whether I would like something like magnetic lashes close to my eyes.

It's probably not the right time at the moment but some of the larger stores do have experts to help with correct choice for your skin. Obviously they are out to sell but they may well be a great help. Their advice is generally free and you would be under no obligation.
