Last time I asked if y'all would like this to be a regular feature, and many of you answered you would, so it shall be!
Do you have a make-up product you'd recommend? Are you looking for the perfect foundation which has remained frustratingly elusive? Need or want to offer make-up tips? Searching for hypoallergenic products? Want to grouse about how you hate make-up? Want to gush about how you love it?
Whatever you like—have at it!
I will note this week that, since the last thread, I tried applying liquid foundation with a brush for the first time and OMG IT WAS REVOLUTIONARY. The coverage was so much better! Yayayayay!
Between deep moisturizing before applying make-up and using brushes, my make-up game is 100% improved, lol.
What's up with you?

Please note, as always, that advice should be not be offered to an individual person unless they solicit it. Further: This thread is open to everyone—women, men, genderqueer folks. People who are make-up experts, and people who are make-up newbies. Also, because there is a lot of racist language used in discussions of make-up, and in make-up names, please be aware to avoid turns of phrase that are alienating to women of color, like "nude" or "flesh tone" when referring to a peachy or beige color. I realize some recommended products may have names that use these words, so please be considerate about content noting for white supremacist (and/or Orientalist) product naming.
