100% agree, BASMA is underrated; it really does fly under the radar. Even in the stores that actually carry it. The foundation stick has excellent coverage without feeling heavy or drying on the skin. I have the new lip gloss balm too but need to get that into my rotation at some point. Fara Homidi ... where to begin? At the beginning, I suppose. I picked up their lip compact in 2023 and foundation/concealer, before they launched at Sephora. I was enamored with how well the Westman Atelier Lip Suede Lipstick Palette was coming along during that year's pan it! challenge 🙌 and looked into other lip compacts. Which eventually lead me to their lip pencil when they launched it. As to the product itself, it's alrght - "good, but great" might be the best way I'd classify it - it's got that traditional waxier lip pencil aesthetic but it applies a little more like the newer generation, creamier lip contour pencils. If you're looking for something with longer staying power, this won't be the one; I'd go with something like Dior or Tom Ford. If you want something with a little less softness than the Merit or Rhode lip contour pencils, this could be it. That said, my lips lean more on the dry side and there's some tugging with the Fara Homidi if I'm using it to fill in my lips - used as a liner, not a problem; glides on smoothly and blends well with pads of fingers. As to the brand, it's funny that you also mentioned Sarah Creal, as I feel like my thoughts on them, brand-wise, are similar. I've gone back and forth on a couple of Sarah Creal products but haven't yet pulled the trigger. Both have a similar look and feel to them - "clean", minimalist, mindful, steady in its curation (vs. mass market approach), and there's a certain audience with or going for a certain look it seems to gravitate towards. I feel like Sarah Creal, as a brand, has put more marketing of its brand/line out than Fara Homidi did when it launched, or even now. Both are in store in very limited markets and I imagine that is planned. That said, I think both would benefit from having their products, or at least, some of them, in more Sephora stores - though I also recognize that shelf space probably comes at a cost to them. The stores near me that carry one or both brands are an hour's drive in a couple of directions but I can see one of the stores in the city that these could do well in, and maybe they'll be there after that store has completed its redesign/renovations. bhahahaha, "what kind of life do you think I'm living??" Yeaaaahhhh, I'm not their target audience; I need to wash my face at some point well before the 24-hour mark.

Hi! I recently did a color analysis and was identified to have "cool winter" as my season, which apparently means I have been using all of the wrong eyeshadow, blush, and lipstick/lipgloss colors for my entire adult life. Does any one have recs for products that they LOVE that are a good fit for a cool winter like me? I've also been told bronzer is no good, so also open to great contour or highlighter products that fit the profile too. Thank you!

@Brattiny At the Fenty brand site, I see all shades of Fenty Beauty by Rihanna Mini Pro Filt’r Instant Retouch Setting Powder available except Lavender. (I tagged the mini size here, but some shades are available only as full size at Fenty’s site.) I don’t know if the brand plans to discontinue this setting powder… eh, they could be reformulating it to remove talc* like several other brands have done with powder products. You could always ask the brand directly; I’m sure there’s contact info at their site. 🙂 *Talc itself is not dangerous. Asbestos is, and there’s growing concern that talc in cosmetics might be contaminated with asbestos during the mining process. Some beauty brands are taking a “better safe than sorry/let’s cover our butts” approach and removing talc their powder products. 🤷‍♀️

It’s the Morphe solo artist priming shadow. Before that I tried Sephora’s Boost + Lock 12HR eyeshadow primer. I do not have oily lids. I’ll try using concealer as a primer.
