@raphaela12 I was thinking about elf recently and how it seems they don't focus enough on the E and the L...I'd think they'd have more lippies and eye shadows...of course idk what their online selection is like. 

[raphaela12]

@greeneyedgirl107 Hmm, yeah, now that you mention it... They do lots of stuff for the Face mostly. In store it's selected items only, whereas online everything is available. Also depends what country you are shopping from, USA has the most things available.

Nice skincare haul @raphaela12.

[CorgiMommy]

Nice haul!

BTW you should love the eye cream , it is a good one

[CorgiMommy]

@raphaela12 the Olehendriksen eye cream 

[raphaela12]

@CorgiMommy Are you referring to the Olehenriksen Eye Cream or the Garnier Eye Cream? 

Either way I'm really loving the Garnier Eye Cream, for $9 it's a steal and works well. Just gotta dab it into the skin otherwise it will dry and flake.

Haul 2 and 3!

 
baked SC foundation- I tested it last night. It’s a touch dark but I did that on purpose since I got the Lawless one a lighter shade. I like the formula once I am a tiny bit more tanned I think it will be perfect. This was inspired by @itsfi thanks for the awesome recommendation! I can always count on you for the best products! @Samtian  the Lawless is beautiful and I love how it blurs and smooths my skin. It is awesome. It didn’t cover all my spots but definitely diminished them. If you’re looking for a comparable more adorable powder the SC baked is great!

Ooh nice! Enjoy @ather 

[ather]

@sister13  Thank you!

I'm happy to hear you like these, @ather!

[ather]

@curlychiquita  They are so good! 

[Saradestin]

It’s awesome when things work for you @ather ! and having reliable opinions and suggestions from the BIC members is amazing!! 

[ather]

@Saradestin  I agree. BIC never lets me down!! 

[itsfi]

Yeah @ather, you got the SC powder, what shade did you pick up? I saw on another thread maybe you asked about how I apply it. I've applied it a couple of ways - as a powder foundation, I've used a buffing brush, like the one from Real Techniques and that gives me more coverage and is buildable. It may look a little powdery at first but once the powder and the natural oils from my skin interact with it, it melds into a beautifully, smooth, subtly radiant, my skin but better foundation. 😍 I've also used it with a lighter hand to set my foundation. 

Is the Lawless you use in a compact or a loose powder?

[ather]

@itsfi  I picked up Bronze in the SC powder! I could probably use it now but I have the Lawless one. Which is also a pressed powder. I can definitely see myself using the SC one all summer and skipping foundation for a more natural look! You can’t beat the price. I find the lawless and the SC similar finishes other then the sc is more radiant and the lawless is more matte.  Both are beautiful! 

[Samtian]

@ather Ooh thank you!!

[ather]

@Samtian  Your welcome!! @itsfi  is also a huge fan of the SC powder too!! And she knows all the best products!

[itsfi]

You're always so kind @ather! Thank you. There's always a bunch of inspiration and enabling going on all around BIC! 😁 

Oh, did you see that your fave tinted moisturizer made the most tagged product on Makeup Madness Challenge 2023 - eyeshadow won. I always love seeing which products are the most tagged in the various categories. It does mean more beauties get added to the shopping list. 😉 Good thing there's a few more days of the sale left. 😂

[ather]

@itsfi  Well you are the sweetest person ever! So it’s easy to say kind words! 

whooo Tower 28 Beauty SunnyDays Skin Tint with Mineral Zinc SPF 30  is a great product! I actually saw that they had a question box on instagram and I asked if they would bring back to Canada! 

[Loretta55]

Great choices @ather.

[ather]

@Loretta55 thank you!
