@Mellmars1185 Wow!!! Amazing job!!!!

Mine are Danessa Myricks Patrick Ta Natasha Denona

Oh my gosh, move on in to that thread, girl!! 😃 I'd love to learn about what tool-product combo's your loving or trying out @danielledanielle! Would love to hear from folks about what's working for them, but completely understand that may not be everyone's thing. At the very least, it'll be a space where I can catalog what I'm currently liking and get feedback from others on either what I'm using or recommendations for what they've tried and liked with that particular brush or product. And for others to be able to use it as a resource too would be awesome. I'm also hoping it will serve as a reminder of what I already have and in that regard, help to curb any knee jerk reaction to pick up another << name a tool or product, any tool or product 😂 >> Yes, the forever hunt ... I mean, it's often a really fun hunt because there's a lot of really nice brushes out there! 😆 Ahhhh, this MAC 171S is quite good! Made this month's monthly faves. Hoping it's part of the MAC stock that makes its way to Sephora later this year. I didn't think I'd be so finicky about my nose contouring shade but undertones are really becoming a sticking point for me of late, lol. I like the VBB contour stylo in that it's thin (even though there's not a lot of product) but the shade I was using was too warm, too goldeny-orange and too ... nope, not for my nose. 😅 I have the next shade, a darker, more cool toned hue that I'll try next, along with maybe the MUFE palette, Sephora Collection contour stick, and/or Dior contour stick. Going to pair them with the rephr spatula prototype and/or an eye blending brush. If none of those work out, I'll sift through my collection of Kbeauty or Jbeauty contour products. I've got options, which is great; I just need to carve out some time to practice and play.

Ooh I heard of that one. It is wild @danielledanielle … I’m gonna start doing gardening today 😘 maybe one day sign up for gardening job 🤣😆

WEEK 4: The "Musical Artist Founded / Owned Beauty Brand" Makeup Capsule I didn't expect to have so many music artist founded/owned products. But it turns out I'm somewhat devoted to three ladies and their products in particular: Rhianna's Fenty Beauty, Selena Gomez's Rare Beauty and Lada Gaga's Haus Labs. I rounded up what I have and here's the pile (products and some opinions in the spoiler below - apologies as this picture photographed pretty dark and does not do justice to the shades - if you'd like a swatch of anything let me know and I'm happy to oblige): SpoilerTOP ROW LEFT TO RIGHT: FENTY BEAUTY: Fenty Beauty by Rihanna Bright Fix Eye Brightener Concealer in Bright Fix (a light pink that's a very pretty corrector) and Golden Ivory: These were probably the first Fenty Products I got. They blend beautifully and correct or conceal like buttah. Sephora seems to have phased them out but you can still find them on the Fenty website,#Fenty Beauty Pro Filter Hydrating Primer: This happens to be my favorite all around filter. It's blurring and it plays well with every foundation I have. Again, Sephora has phased it out but you can still grab it on the Fenty Website,Fenty Beauty by Rihanna We're Even Hydrating Longwear Waterproof Concealer in 110W: one of my top 5 concealers along with the aforementioned Bright Fix Eye Concealer,Fenty Beauty by Rihanna Eaze Drop Stick Blur + Smooth Tint Stick Foundation in 2: I don't use this a ton but when I do I never have any issues with it. More coverage than the Eaze Drop Liquid formulation and a nice alternatives to skin tints in the summer,Fenty Beauty by Rihanna Cheek-Hugging Highlight Brush 120 : I tend to use this more as a blush brush than highlighter tool but the cupped shape is brilliant at hugging your cheekbones,Fenty Beauty by Rihanna Precision Concealer Brush 180 : I'm not much of a concealer brush gal in general but this is decent,Fenty Beauty by Rihanna Gloss Bomb Universal Lip Luminizer Champ Stamp Fantasy : I could not love this more. Great product rivaled only by some of the other shades in the product line up,Fenty Beauty by Rihanna Gloss Bomb Heat Universal Lip Luminizer + Plumper Fenty Glow : these are a little more opaque than the Gloss Bomb Universals but of course the shades are gorgeous,Maybe the best for last in my book has to be Fenty Beauty by Rihanna Gloss Bomb Universal Lip Luminizer Fenty Glow: I'm on the dredges of the mini I got and will definitely repurchase. Such a universally flattering shade.SECOND ROW LEFT TO RIGHT: RARE BEAUTY:Rare Beauty by Selena Gomez Mini Soft Pinch Liquid Blush Hope ,Rare Beauty by Selena Gomez Soft Pinch Liquid Blush Worth (mini): I got this as part of the three piece "Worth" set released over the holidays, fell in love with the shade and have since purchased a full size,Rare Beauty by Selena Gomez Soft Pinch Matte Bouncy Blush Worth : My favorite product and shade from this line by far. To be honest the Rare Beauty Liquid Blushes are a little opaque for me but this is highly pigmented with a lot of color pay off and one of the better blushes I have in my collection,Rare Beauty by Selena Gomez Soft Pinch Liquid Contour Gentle : honestly, this is just not the contour for me (too dark and too saturated) but I think if you're a fan of the Soft Pinch liquid blushes they have their place,Rare Beauty by Selena Gomez Positive Light Liquid Luminizer Highlight Mesmerize : this is sort of a rose/champagne gold. Like most the Rare Beauty liquid formulas I'm not a huge fan but it's an interesting shade,Rare Beauty by Selena Gomez Soft Pinch Tinted Lip Oil Stain Serenity : this is my favorite product in the line up second only to the Bouncy Blush. I love lip stains and it also fills a hole in my Dior Stain range as a very nice warm, mid-tone pink. Extra points for being very hydrating for a stain,Rare Beauty by Selena Gomez Soft Pinch Liquid Blush Bliss,Rare Beauty by Selena Gomez Soft Pinch Liquid Blush Worth (the full size I purchased after getting the mini),And finally a limited for now shade of Rare Beauty by Selena Gomez Soft Pinch Tinted Lip Oil Stain in Worth: I'm really hoping they add this to the Lip Oil Shade Range!THIRD ROW LEFT TO RIGHT: HAUS LABS:HAUS LABS BY LADY GAGA Color Fuse Longwear Hydrating Glassy Lip + Cheek Blush Balm Stick Glassy Cayenne is such a great shade and I like the consistency for a cream product,HAUS LABS BY LADY GAGA Color Fuse Talc-Free Blush Powder With Fermented Arnica Pomelo Peach a lovely shade with great buildable saturation - I've had this one for some time but it's just convinced me to add French Rosette (not pictured) to my collection too,I have a hard time finding contours that aren't too warm so I'm very excited about HAUS LABS BY LADY GAGA Precision Sculpt Shaping Balm Contour Stick Chisel ,Finally, I'm a sucker for a good powder highlighter and I love the shade of HAUS LABS BY LADY GAGA Bio-Radiant Gel-Powder Illuminating Highlighter with Fermented Arnica Peach Quartz .TOP ROW LEFT TO RIGHT: FENTY BEAUTY: in Bright Fix (a light pink that's a very pretty corrector) and Golden Ivory: These were probably the first Fenty Products I got.

I'm really OK with a pop of leopard and these all fit nicely in a pouch I have with room to spare: Key take aways for me looking through these products? Always check out the Fenty Website before assuming a product is gone if it's not on Sephora. Slow down on jumping on cream blush formulations from Rare Beauty and check out more of their powder products. But, continue to rely on all three lines for great shade selections!

I typically use loose powder but mostly because that's what I've had open or more of; I think I would like to maybe use more pressed powder for my under eyes though @itsfi . I tend to be multi-tool when I do my makeup, using a combination of brushes, two sizes of sponges, puffs, reusable q-tips and my fingers, but each week I use a different set of brushes and put away the rest to be washed, so as I go through, I start with some of my faves and then by the end I'm just using whatever lol. I change out my sponges every 3 months, but brushes I can somewhat justify having a lot because like they're not single use lol (but at the same time, theoretically I need like a dozen I should just wash more often).
