Bummer @Loretta55!

Gorgeous! @Ellzarrthegreat I also love the moon pendant.

While I was looking at reviews for Beauty Bakerie products (which were mixed), I've come across an astonishing tale at the workplace dynamics of Beauty Bakerie --> check out reddit DOT com/r/BeautyGuruChatter/comments/hc2idr/former_beauty_bakerie_employee_exposes_toxic/ for a detailed account. Unfortunately the instagram post was taken down so this reddit post had the most info.Also allegedly the company's response to this alleged whistleblower is telling (also detailed in the comments of that reddit post). While I'm not sure how much of this is true and that many many companies (including allegedly Sephora, if reports are to be believed) have not ideal/great workplace dynamics, I'm now hesitant to support this brand. Would love to know other's thoughts and opinions on this.

@FabinFlorida You went the smart route! LOL

My blush also came today! They are really so pretty. I was surprised Pommette wasn’t more vivid but it’s beautiful and probably more easily wearable. Plume, Nuit and Pommette left to right and top to bottom. Initial thoughts on them - So soft and natural. Plume is so subtle yet gives the watercolor blurring effect . Nuit is perfect shade to me if you love a cooler pink and Pommette gives a fun little bit more of a pop. I love all things Hermes but these are a few things that come to mind and truly no harsh criticism at all! The case feels a little lightweight vs the lip and I guess I was expecting it to be a little bit more luxe, maybe more like Gucci but not that crazy heavy. Lol And I know that they are all about the super natural sport look so I totally appreciate the easy soft matte idea. But I wish that maybe one had a little bit of subtle shimmer or illumination to it at least for me because my skin is a little dryer and more mature. You young gals with no “experience lines” shall we say would probably not even notice it. 🥰 I do love their 3 suggestions to apply them including doing an X to create an outdoorsy flush of color. They apply easily no matter how you do it! Can’t wait to see others plus that darn brush! 😂 I love yours @ChristalM ! Will be great to see your lip shade!

Wow! Thank you for all the information.

Double cleansing has also saved my skin, my favorite one is from Wishtrend the "Gentle Black Fresh Cleansing Oil" because it's the one for oily skin (they have one for dry skin if that's the one you have). I think finding one calming or hydrating part of your skincare would be the most beneficial. The Ordinary and The Inkey List have good ingredients separately but finding a good formula that combines them would be better I think. KRAVE BEAUTY 'Great Barrier Relief' has Niacinamide and is meant to give your skin barrier a break in case it has been compromised. I would try backing away from more than one active product and if your skin is sensitive to fragrance, instead of the #SUNDAY RILEY Good Genes All-In-One Lactic Acid Treatment I'd recommend Paula's Choice Skin Perfecting 2% BHA Liquid Exfoliant 4 oz/ 118 mL. For me hydrating my skin and calming it down with Honey Face Masks have helped a lot. For reference, I have oily combo skin (dry in the winter around my nose and mouth), hyperpigmentation w/ texture, large pores, and dormant acne that wakes up sometimes lol. Also wow your pores are tiny and you have beautiful skin. As for under eyes, half of my family have pretty dark under eyes so most of the time the color can be genetic, I also don't use specific eye creams because they are not necessary if you find a good quality moisturizer. However, dullness can be combated with vitamins B and C (together they are magic). Gentle Black Oil Cleanser by Dear KlairsGentle Cleanser by FarmacyHoney Mask by I'm FromBHA Exfoliant by Paula's ChoiceGreat Barrier Relief by KraveCalming Cream by Dear KlairsKlairs SunscreenOut of all of these Great Barrier Relief is my favorite. It has a light texture and an earthy hemp kind of smell. I like using it during the day since it's light and the Dear Klairs Midnight Calming Cream at night cuz she thicc. Normally the Klairs Sunscreen would be my favorite by there's a problem with labs lying about the amount of SPFPaula's choice works best if you have some kind of absorbent cleansing pads that u can leave it on for about a minute like a mask.The Honey mask just hydrates like crazy but u can use it for 1 hour so it's funThe Farmacy Gentle Cleanser smells sweet with no fragrance and compared to the Youth To The People Superfood Antioxidant Cleanser it's more gentle. Finally, the Oil Cleanser's first ingredient is Linoleic filled with Sunflower Seed Oil as the first ingredient and I like it better than the Farmacy Green Clean Makeup Removing Cleansing Balm

Coming soon to Sephora US (already available at Sephora in other countries) is the Benefit California Kissin'.
