WOC: Make Up For Ever (MUFE) discussion

[~Crystal~]

Oooh MUFE... you girls are lucky that it's available over there! There isn't a single place in all of Australia that stocks it!!

For me though, I have...

- Face and Body foundation in #20 (really lovely... never cakey... only complaint is it seems to wipe out my concealer so I have to apply it AFTER my foundation now??)

- Full cover concealer in #2 and #6... yup.. I should be a #4... (doesn't budge and covers super well... only face and body foundation application seems to remove it for some reason haha)

- The highlight/contour palette. Love! Very useful

Wanting to try: The Liquid Lift foundation!! I know this stuff has tonnes more coverage than Face and Body coz I had a sample of it! Too bad the MA gave me a colour WAY too dark for my face... (#3 for this NW15?

) coz I was hoping to use it and only it in place of having to apply concealer which I have to mix to colour match to my skin everry single time!

For those of you who have tried Liquid Lift... what do you think of it? And any NW15 girls out there who also use it? I'm looking at #1... but really not sure- and I have issues getting a sample since this isn't even in Australia!!!

I can't bring myself to get really interested in Makeup Forever. Their product packaging is too boring for me. Maybe if i go to Sephora, it'll be better because I can see the colors directly rather than judging by the packaging.

I've been contemplating trying their 5 camouflage cream palette but it's not exactly cheap.

I wear NW15 studio finish concealer now but I really need more color correct (dark brownish purple under eye circles and a rather noticable greenish vein under my left eye... most annoying). I just don't know which one to get! Maybe the #1? I'll probably try a cheaper color corrector first I suppose but I'll have to study up some more.

I definitely want to try star powder. I've heard only good things about it.

Just think everyone, Sephora only carries about 30% of their whole line.

I like the Make up Store after I discovered it when I travelled to asia. I particularily like their microshadows and their very own magazine because it showcases how creative you can get and inspires. I'm not too fond of the concealers though (from muf)

they're too thick when I try to blend.
*eta* I just realized that I am mixing up too different brands, one is The Make up Store and the other is Make up Forever, sorry but I give Make up Forever a thumbs down!!! and MUS two thumbs up!!!
(sorry for the confusion!!)

 

[CantAffordMAC]

so I changed my mind. I went into Sephora (knowing that i could try the products firsthand) and I like a lot of the shadows.

They were really pretty. I liked this glittery hot pink shadow the most. When I get some money, I'll buy some.

 

[MsCocoa]

Never used anything from their line but the stuff looks amazing!

I'm going to MUFE Monday..I've played with the colors a few weeks ago. I'm somewhat tired of MAC and I want to try something NEW. So can someone, anyone tell me what to get first. I'm into e/s.. Also, I can't find a great foundation to match me. I went to Sephora and I went through all the makeup lines to find a match. Normally I guess, I wear NW45 but as of lately, I guess, I've lighten up. Let a sista know!!

I like a few of their products. Once I finish a good portion of my shadows, I'll invest in theirs b/c you get more product for your buck. I also only wear the Full Cover as it takes way less time to fix my under eyes.

Also, myself and the rest of my class can call ahead of time and practice and use any of their testers products as long as I bring a model and my brushes. They're the only company in town that does that!

MUFE's F&B is a staple in my kit, whenever I'm applying it to someone on whom I have concealer, I pat the foundation with a sponge and don't swipe because that definitely removes the concealer, if you use a makeup brush, then pat in the foundation and pat it in with your ring finger to blend, works everytime when I'm using it.

I've worn the lift foundation, it definitely has a lot more coverage than F&B and isn't as matte as Mat Velvet +, I like to use it mixed with some metalizer to add some natural dewiness and shiny. But unless your skin is REALLY dry (and I don't know how old you are), don't use the Lift foundation everyday, it could sag your skin prematurely because of the lifting agent. This was what my makeup teacher always said in class when one of the girls loved the finish of the Lift Foundation, she said it was ok to use occasionally, but definitely not an everyday foundation for twenty somethings. It was, after all, designed for more mature skin.

Woc Mufe

ok so I am tired of looking unnatural and want to try the mufe face and body foundation everyone raves about. I went to Sephora today and tried on some but the colors in the store were limited. I normally wear mac nc50. So my question is have any of you tried it and what do you think? Also what shade are you? i think she used shade 44

 

[chocolategoddes]

Re: Woc Mufe

I'm working up the cash to buy it because I absolutely love it. Better than MACs FaB though MACs is cheaper. I forgot my shade but it was PERFECT for me (I'm like an NC45/50 (depending on the season) with a few hints of red but mostly yellow undertones) It's not thick but it reall does give noticeable coverage and it evens out my skin. It's not cakey at all. It's a wonderful foundation. Get some.

Re: Woc Mufe

Thanks I wore it around all day yesterday and liked it. My skin looked really nice, very smooth. Some mild shine but still ok. It was like 101 outside. My face started itching around my jaw line towards the middle of the night but that could have been a number of different things.

Re: Woc Mufe

There is shade 46 (which is what I wear) and I was matched to Mac mineralize satinfinish in nc 50 as well, so it should be good for you.

Re: Woc Mufe

I am NC50 in Studio Fix and Studio Tint, in the winter I wear C7: I don't get any lighter but I get less orange, if that makes sense. I wear MUFE shade 18, or occasionally shade 12.

Re: Woc Mufe

I had to laugh at the title of this thread. Newbies on the site probably wonder what strange language we speak here. lol

Re: Woc Mufe

i have some and love love love it. It blends seamlessly into the skin...it does have some sheen to it but I was looking for a foundation to help with a dewy face. I blend it with a kabki brush and it's awesome....hth
