Devoured this. My notes on this —

- Vicky Tsai of Tatcha told me she also uses NARS Creamy concealer. Also NARS complexion products are meant to be used with fingers only, no brushes, so it looks perfect when tapped on.

- Love Westman drops, it’s the closest to Kosas’ discontinued tinted face oil which I loved.

- Also love the Chanel Les Beiges Water tint

- RMS Living Luminizer is so underrated.

- Chanel Baume is iconic it’s true

- Kevyn Aucoin’s tubing mascara is iconic. But also, I love the original Japanese brand that did this first.

so true re kevyn aucoin, I almost put it on the list </3 And i never knew that re NARS. I will definitely try. Sheer Glow is also one of the best formulas out there

Controversially I have never tried NARS foundations! But they would say they need to be applied with fingers only too, because the warmth helps them spread.

Love Westman Atelier and everything Chanel, am off to add some drops to my very old Chanel bronzer, and I was hoping you'd list the Chanel eye quad and cheek palettes!

These are so accurate I’m SICK.

I feel found out re. RMS. Try their “glow plex” SPF 30 tint (in shade fair) - it’s life changing.

I forgot about how good NARS concealer is (have been on Hourglass) but may need to get back to it.

I also used Westman baby cheeks (chouchette) on my wedding day (🥹) and my makeup artist got me onto Armani Luminous Silk blush because it’s a touch more pigmented and much longer lasting, which I’m always left wanting from her sticks. I layered both and it was gorge

On everything Chanel: yes, always yes.

Pour one out tho for our fallen beauties, Chanel Illusion D'ombre. I cry in agony that I can never get a pot of the shade New Moon ever again.

I thought the givenchy prisme libre was reformulated and the new one is a flop?

But thank you!!

You're right! I could be so off as I'm not a long time user, but I got one 12 ish months ago and loved it. Maybe the original was better? probably (often the case)

I'd add Lisa Eldridge's skin tint as a new cult classic.

I've tried the Chanel bronzer and was underwhelmed, I think they reformulated and everyone who raves about it is still using the original because it is such a large tub!
