Estee Lauder Double Wear has a lot of shades and the coverage is amazing. My HG foundation.

I'll check this out as well-- hope one of them has a color match for me!

That sounds weird... I had a foundation that almost turned a grey color on me, it was a BB cream actually. It kind of looked like dirt lol.

Right it is weird. I wish that was the issue for me.
But it looked so good and flawless on for hours.
But when I took it off that was the issue and because of the dirt..I'd get pimples.

 

[PixieDancer]

No it dries matte for me.
But when I take it off, I notice not just the color of the foundation but dirt comes with it. Which has never happened with any other foundation.
It is hard to explain.

I have never noticed that with my ELDW Foundation... Hmmm? I'll pay closer attention next time I use it.
You might have just kicked up my OCD! LOL

I thought it was just me. But then the same thing happened to my sister. It looks lovely all day. Wonderful and flawless. But idk what happens as I'm taking it off. It was just so noticeable, the dirt. Perhaps it is where I live causing the issue.

Does anyone know what kind of coverage Nars sheer glow foundation has? I know upthread someone said pretty good, but what does that mean exactly? Is it at least medium coverage? I've been thinking about trying it, but it's a bit pricey. For $45 it had better be AWESOME.

Yes buildable to a good medium. Try a sample first!

Yeah, around medium coverage. And not glowy at all. I'd say it's more of a satin or velvet finish, personally.

light to a buildable medium. if you want full coverage this won't be the one for you.

So...can any Canadians tell me if they are charged duty on their orders and how long it usually takes?

I've never had duty charged because I am sure they use a cross-border service which takes into account the exchange rate. My last order was something like 7-10 business days to be delivered. It depends if the items you purchase are in stock.

Oh that's perfect! I've heard people say they get charges duty and wait like a month! When I put stuff in my basket it doesn't show a duty charge

Has anyone bought the new Tarte rainforest palette? It looks gorgeous, but I'm wondering about the quality/pigmentation/feel of it

So I had to run into my Sephora just to grab a blending brush (I have one from Sigma and I was washing it last night and all the dye is coming off... ) and I saw the Anastasia Contour Kit. A plethora of them actually, so I went for it. This is my first real contour product and I definitely don't have highlight powders like these. I'm excited to start playing with this, but also nervous. Any good tips for using it??

Hi ladies, I'm looking for a liquid foundation rec for darker skins (i.e. they actually have shades that match). I have dry skin. I use Givenchy teint couture but it's not enough coverage at the moment.

I really wanted to try Armani Luminous Silk since it's HG for soooo many people but I'm in between shades (8 and 8.5, they don't make the .25 shades in darker colors of course..). Such a bummer!!! Anything else I can get from Sephora?
i must concur with everyone who said NARS sheer glow. i have glow and sheer matte (in tahoe) and its honestly pushed my beloved MUFE HD (#170) to 2nd place!! NARS just can do no wrong in my eyes. i also hear folks rave on lancome's too but im stuck on nars for now!! even their cream foundation is to diiiiiie for.
