Oooh that darker blush is so pretty @SportyGirly125 

[SportyGirly125]

@Kim888 the plum blush is gorgeous in person. The formula is definitely buildable

Does anyone happen to have any swatches and/or thoughts on the Byredo lipsticks? I saw them on sale and was curious (and now I keep seeing the ads on Instagram), but I couldn't find a ton of objective info online, and the Byredo thread here seems pretty quiet. Thanks!

[Sunnysmom]

Here are the cool tones I have @txcatx . (Red & Blue is cooler and more deep pinky red than it shows up here on me by the way.) 
Both formulas are very comfortable and stay on well. Intense, a little thicker and good stain.  Matte is a little trickier but still smooths over and doesn’t look dry to me. None feather tho I use a MAC invisible stick or Chantecaille’s to keep colors in place usually. Sale would be good! 😊

Top to bottom- Red & Blue, Dancehall Queen and Lascaux.  All cool jewel tones.

@Sunnysmom Thank you so much! Those were the shades I happened to be interested in. Also thanks for the review--I did actually want to know if they stain or slide right off, and good to know that they stay put.

[Sunnysmom]

Oh fun @txcatx ! Serendipity! Those shades drew me in also. Yes the stain is nice!! I love that too, my lips are pale. Still on my lips and arm after swatching! 😊 

[Sunnysmom]

I have a few of the reds @txcatx , I will find a swatch or take a pic.

@txcatx, I have the four newest shades. Here’s what they look like swatches:

Thanks, @itsfi ! You wouldn't happen to have thoughts on the older shades, would you? I would probably end up getting a red or berry shade. Thanks again!

[itsfi]

@txcatx, I only have one lipstick from the first group of colors released; it’s a more neutral shade. They all have fairly good staying power; my recollection of the bolder red and berry shades is that they leave a pretty stain on the lips as they fade away.

Hello everyone! My name is char! I’m so glad I found this thread! I would love some advice/tips/tricks or opinions on foundation please! And i also have some questions. First of all, I live in humid Hawaii since 2019,  I’m turning 39 next week, I have oily skin, I wear lash extensions because I don’t like mascara and putting them on. my foundation for a long time has been Estée Lauder Double Wear Stay-in-Place Foundation 4W1 Honey Bronze  I am starting to think it could be the wrong color. My veins on wrist to some people are blue/purple. I just thought it was green blue,( I was lighter skinned in Vegas) I want to try something else, that’s more mattifying, preferably liquid since I think that’s best for oilyskin ?!?  And I don’t know what’s close to that shade, I also want try another shade, lighter.  Can someone recommend some choices or brands? Anyone with similar skin types or problems? What worked? What’s new in my age? Thank you for taking the time to read and share your beauty experiences!
