Hello everyone, I am South Asian as well! I have a question for all the NC42s. What is your MUFE HD foundation colour and what's your camo palette number? Thanks!

Try MUFE HD in 153 or darker 155. Try getting samples first to see how you like it or just return the item if you're not happy.

Ahhh my beauties! Hiii.

Ok so I had a great jam packed weekend. Yesterday I went to Dulhan Expo, which is a bridal fashion show. The makeup was gorg as well as the outfits!!! I was so tempted to ask the makeup artist some questions and advice, but she was super busy. There is another one in April that I def plan on attending. I know they have them everywhere, so you guess should check it out. I am not getting married, no where near that, but I just went to see the stunning outfits and show. There were many acts, from bellydancing to singers, dances, few guest appeareances, and RDB performed!

Ok, so anyway, I stated in an earlier post that Melba blush was very similar to Pinch Me and Gingerly. I paired all three together and blended them out, and I got alot of compliments on my cheeks.

I wore my warm pigments, and sketch eyeshadow on the outter corners, and Molten Sol LLL on my lashline. I always get LLL on my eyelashes, so I lined my eye with the LLL first and them did my mascara. I also used my Bronscape solar bits to make my eyes shine, and I also mixed it with some lotion and put it all over my arms/chest.

On my lips I wore Angel l/s and Strange Hybrid l/s and some myth l/s in the middle to give an effect alond with some c-thru l/g

To create a natural eye look, I love my neutral colored paints. I also use shroom, naked lunch, patina, retrospeck, all that glitters, satin taupe eyeshadows. I still want to get more, would love to hear other suggestions!
I also love the Paint pots, my everyday go-to fast look is rubensque paint pot with sketch on the outer corners. I also love indianwood. The formula on these are amazing.

I didnt use melon or the reflects. So with the other three - used the lightest one all over eye, medium one all over lid and the darker gold in the crease and then mulch or bronze in crease to darken it up. I wore harmoney blush to contour and then peaches on apples of cheeks and finished off with mocha lipstick. Was a nice neutral look.

I put the reflects glitter on top of sharkskin when I did my colleagues look - I am seriously impressed with that set.

Is soft ocrhre paint pot like an ''invisible'' paint pot on your lid? I want a paint pot that I can use with different eyeshadow colours.. I only have one so far in quite natural , I love it! Always use it with my smokey eyes.

Rubenesque is a MUST for our skin tone; it pops sooo nicely; I always use it when I go for a gold look (I am not trying to be an instigator, I swear

Sunset B is very pretty, warm pink color but it didn't show up on my lids (NC 37), I really had to pack it on 3-4 times to get the same color as in the lid so I returned it back. Talent Pool is the same color as parrot (atleast on me!) but with a better texture and So Scarlet is a beautiful deep wine red lipstick with amplified creme formula, which is a huge plus. I always get compliments when I wear it with Brick lipliner and Comet blue dazzleglass. HTH!

I don't wear studio fix so I don't know how to explain my skin color to you all. Just bought MUFE HD foundation and I LOVE IT!! The color is 153.

I wanted to try some color on my lips...I always wear malt, hug me, taupe....

I am thinking of getting a violet/fuchsia color…not a frosty color but just something a little different. Any suggestions? Or suggestions on any other “color” lipstick that you guys think will look good?

Oh and I have pigmented lips L

lol, you guys I've been stalking your thread and let me tell you that you guys are lucky to have a network like this. There are some folks here with great recommendation. I don't see many ppl on Specktra with my skin tone and features so I kinda pick favourite things here and there...mostly by experimenting
