Comments that do not adhere to our comment policy may be removed. Discussion and debate are highly encouraged but we expect community members to participate respectfully. Please keep discussion on-topic, and if you have general feedback, a product review request, an off-topic question, or need technical support, please contact us!

Please help us streamline the comments' section and be more efficient: double-check the post above for more basic information like pricing, availability, and so on to make sure your question wasn't answered already. Comments alerting us to typos or small errors in the post are appreciated (!) but will typically be removed after errors are fixed (unless a response is needed).

We appreciate enthusiasm for new releases but ask readers to please hold questions regarding if/when a review will be posted as we can't commit to or guarantee product reviews. We don't want to set expectations and then disappoint readers as even products that are swatched don't always end up being reviewed due to time constraints and changes in priorities! Thank you for understanding!

Your skin tone/coloring: Light neutral, leaning warm. Hazel eyes, and I used to have light brown hair with blonde highlights but I’m shocked by how gray i am around the temples these days.

Favorite makeup look this week: I paired MAC’s Fleur Power blush with MAC My Little Secret lipcolor and I’m blown away by how much I like them together. They’re both pink, with a warm coral tinge and the blush in particular emulates the “cold girl” look that is popular right now.

Hero product of the week: Unseen sunscreen over any moisturizer — my skin has been cranky with all the cold, and layering protection is the only thing that helps keep it from getting raw.

Products for next week: I want to use some of the spring-y blushes that I got in my makeup swap, so I’m looking for things that will go with light pink and coral. I’m thinking MAC Skew lipstick and the Urban Decay Wild Greens palette will get some use this week.

Your skin tone/coloring: above with freckles, green eyes, warm brown hair.

What was your favorite makeup look you wore this past week?: I did a lot of fun looks this week, but I think my favorite was a look I did for work using ND My Dream and Clionadh Solder. It was so beautiful. Here’s the link if you want to check it out! https://www.instagram.com/p/CnhReqbLuMp/?igshid=MDM4ZDc5MmU=

What was the hero product of the week for you?: I think the Glamlite Barbie palette. I used it a lot this week.

Any products you want to use next week?: more Glamlite Barbie palette. I really love it! Also my Kaleidos Escape Pod palette too.

Your skin tone/colouring: Porcelain, with pink undertones

What was your favorite makeup look you wore this past week?: I did one of your colourful eye looks this week Christine and I was so happy with the result. I used Fresh Stem from Smashbox’s Petal Metal on the upper eyelid, with Sinful from PMG on the lower eyelid, Rose Rocked from Smashbox in the crease and a touch of Underworld from Decadence as an eyeliner next to my lashlne. I paired it with Flower Beauty’s Chestnut Red lipstick.

What was the hero product of the week for you?: Still sunscreen and Flower Beauty’s Chestnut Red lipstick.
Any products you want to use next week?: Just using a random assortment of my eyeshadow palettes.

Your skin tone/coloring: pale, cool
What was your favorite makeup look you wore this past week?: Tarte’s Sinful eyeshadow has been my new love. I’ve worn it daily on my outer lid and buffed out into my outer corner, with either Gleam or Vermeer from ABH in the inner corner with Sephora Cappuccino to line upper and lower lids. I’m looking pretty pale and pasty so I’ve been slapping on a bit of powder foundation and IT concealer topped with Laura Mercier Secret Brightening Powder to set the foundation. MAC Sweet Sentiment on cheeks and brushed lightly around my hairline/above my brows (like I said, I’m looking pale and pasty) and, of course, MAC Craving on my lips.
What was the hero product of the week for you?: Webber Vitamin E Cream on my surgical scar; Egyptian Magic Cream on my face at night.
Any products you want to use next week?: I want to use some of my old favourite MAC Shadows – shades like Coquette, Sweet Satisfaction, Charcoal Brown. They’ve been ignored for far too long!
