You could also try this one:

Though I'm fairly sure that Makeup Artists Provisions ships internationally.

I just got approved for the pro discount and I want to order stuff but I have no idea where to start! I want everything in their catalog...

I love their Kabuki brush! Jus bought it 2 months ago together with my HD primer and HD loose powder.

The brush is VERY soft and does NOT shed even with washing...and although it is EXPENSIVE. It is very well worth the price. Makes applying powder foundation and pressed powder a breeze.

I highly recommend this Kabuki brush....

I second the kabuki brush love. You can use it to press the powder into your skin and it works flawlessly. It's not scratchy, but it's very firm and it has zero shedding.

Has anyone already tried MUFE matte eyeshadows?

I second that. #60 is gorgeous.

 

[genduk26]

i agree.... #60 is awesome.

This is my very short review of the HD series of primer, foundation and loose powder:

in order to get the best effect, it's best to use the full set of HD primer, HD foundation and HD loose powder together
I have tried the HD foundation and mixed it with other brands of powder and base but i noticed that if i use the full set of HD series of primer, HD foundation and HD loose powder, it gives the best effect - Flawless and smooth finish which i love.
This is just my own personal opinion.
BTW...The HD loose powder has silica in it, so for those who are allergic to sillica stay away from this. But the HD loose powder does give a really smooth finish to the face. It's a translucent powder. I do not have oily skin so i can't say much about the oil control for the HD loose powder

#60 all the way.

 

[s_lost]

Wow, I saw #60 at the swatch thread and it's gorgeous!!!! Probably it's the most beautiful dark blue matte eyeshadow. I need it!!!

Hey hon...no prob. Sephora should be getting the Aqua Cream colors in the future...not sure how soon or if they will have all the colors MUFE has now.

Ok, i need help, i read almost half of this thread

And this is what I get, I think,

I'm Mac NC20 in summer, NC15 in winter, I need a summer foundation.

I have yellow undertones, oily skin, redness around my nose and chin, pores, sensitive skin, little blemishes, and i need a good foundation for summer to stay on me at least 8h!
I have read that oily people mostly don't like the HD foundation for summer, that it doest stay on for long (3-4h), and that they prefer the Mat Velvet+, i didn't find many posts about F&B foundation...

...so I am assuming (by posts here and swatches on karlasugar) that I am in:
MUFE HD - #118 or #120
MUFE F&B - #20 or #32 (but i think #32 will be too dark for me)
MUFE Mat Velvet+ - ???

I need help determening a Mat Velvet+ shade

Also, I am going to order a primer and i don't know if i shoul get the green one (Sephora: MAKE UP FOR EVER HD Microperfecting Primer: Primer)
or this kit, because it has a setting powder (Sephora: MAKE UP FOR EVER HD Complexion Travel Kit ($40 Value): Combination Sets)

I can't order both because i don't have a lot of money...


Because we don't have MUFE, i can't swatch it live, and i have to wait for about a month or two to get it, i want to order it soon (in the next 2-4weeks) i need all the help i can get

Thanks!

For summer foundation I would go with F&B just coz it's lighter and best for summer use. I'm NW25 in the winter and more like NW30 in the summer and I wear F&B in #32, I would say go for #20 if you're getting F&B.

For Mat n Velvet I can't really help sorry

I wear either #35 (sumemr) or #40 (winter)...but #25 seems to be ur match based on Karla's swatches

I would not recommend HD if you're oily. I hear all over the makeup community that ppl with oily skin don't like it. If you do decide to go the HD route (and HD has more coverage so slightly heavier), I would say go with 117. I wear shade #118 which seems to match NW25 in sff. Also, #118 is very neutral, 117 has more yellow and should be more suited to you.

I got the Aqua Cream colors #15, 19, 20 & 22 yesterday together with the HD blushes #2, 4, 6 & 8. I haven't tried the blushes yet but these aqua cream are

i have very oily eyelids. MAC paint pots, greasepaint, etc crease on my lids in a hour. MUFE flash pots crease after 4-5 hours. But these aqua cream don't crease on my lids at all. finally i found the best eye base

i'll get more aqua cream colors.

thanks for answering so fast!

I just went to friends house to see the pics on the computer monitor, since i have a laptop, and it looks as if HD #117 would be more suited for me.
Mat+Velvet #25 seems pink to me?

F&B #20 seems to be almost the best match out of these three foundations...
I have to look around for more pics of someone using this foundation and swatches just to be sure before ordering *off to serch fotds*

I 'third' it - I LOVE this brush! I wish I could have a couple of others with the same type of quality - I use it everday to apply my Bare Minerals Feather Light Mineral Veil. It's the bomb!
