I wish I had enough time to do all your challenges @sister13 I love this thread (it's so fun! 😄) My life is soo busy these days. I figured the only way to do it was commit to wear it to work no matter how it turned out 😉

Another month, another set of Empties: I really enjoyed the mini Farmacy balm in the pear scent! It was a little on the light side fragrance-wise but very pleasant. The Refresh spray is a must-have (and I'll need to grab a backup soon) but the other things won't be repurchases. I liked the mini BumBum cream (of course!) and the hand sanitizer smelled wonderful but everything else was just "meh". I actually really liked how the Keratin Complex products made my hair feel BUT I couldn't get past the scent; those had to have been some of the worst-smelling shampoos and conditioners I've ever tried. I finished my Makeup by Marion Skin Enhancer! I genuinely loved this and I could totally see myself repurchasing it down the road. The Arches and Halos brow pen is an absolute fav. Unfortunately the NYX lip liner and LA Girl eyeliner are declutters; they both dried up unbelievably quickly and are currently totally unusable.

My Luminous Love Affair with YSL's All Hours Foundation – A Fun & Honest Review!

Hey, beauty lovers! Today, I'm excited to share my thoughts on the #YvesSaintLaurent All Hours Foundation, which claims to deliver 24 hours of luminous matte full coverage. Full disclosure: I received this product as a free sample, but as always, my opinions are 100% honest and my own First off, let's talk about the scent. I personally adore it, but if you're sensitive to fragrances, beware! This foundation's aroma might be a bit overwhelming for some. Now, onto the application! This foundation glides onto the skin like an absolute dream, feeling weightless and luxurious. It's perfect for my combo-oily skin friends who have steered clear of luminous products in the past. Fear no more! This foundation leaves your skin with a gorgeous luminous matte finish, and your skin will feel hydrated without looking greasy or oily. When it comes to coverage, I'd say it's a buildable full coverage, giving you the power to customize your look depending on your mood or the occasion. But let's address those big claims: "transfer-proof, waterproof, and heat resistant." I can confirm that this foundation is indeed waterproof, but my experience with it being transfer-proof was, well, not so great. There could be many factors affecting this, like the primer or setting powder used. It's frustrating that brands don't always provide details on how the skin was prepped or what products were used to support their claims. Aren't we all longing for a truly transfer-proof foundation? As for the heat resistance, I'll have to wait until summer to see how it holds up. Now, let's discuss the elephant in the room: the color range. With 40 shades available, only 9 of them cater to people with darker complexions. My shade, DN5, is a tad too dark for me, but the lighter option would be way too light. YSL, we need you to do better with your shade range! Overall, I love the foundation's performance, but I'm hesitant to repurchase as it would require buying two different shades to get my perfect color match. So, my fabulous friends, that's my take on YSL's All Hours Foundation! If you can find your perfect shade and are not sensitive to scents, give it a go and embrace that luminous matte magic! 💫

Hi @Fatiiiiii! Welcome to the club. There is A LOT of different products you can use to achieve the look you’re going for. Based on the details you’ve given and your goal of a natural glam look, I’d say try focusing on skincare first. Do you have a routine in place? A good base will go a long way to achieving that look you want. Considering your age, I presume you have a bit of a budget to work within too, whether your parents are lending you a hand or if it’s your own hard-earned money. Drugstore makeup has come a long way and many of us here have a few drugstore favourites. I love Maybelline’s products. They’re budget friendly but great quality. Or, if you can wait until next month, check out Sephora Collection during Sephora’s spring sale. Their products are also great in terms of quality and price and the sale helps even more!

What’s going on with the shade match for Sephora? It’s absolutely ridiculous that it doesn’t match anything properly. Sephora really needs to take this down because it’s a waste of time. I have yet to find a match through this device.
