Favorite makeup products and favorite beginner makeup products?

Oooooh, so I��m going to list my favorites here, and stick to one of each for overall fave/beginner (which I’ll categorize as drugstore/inexpensive options). 

Overall: 

Mascara: Benefit roller lash is my go-to when it comes to a prestige brand. It applies well, stays on, and is just super super NICE. 

Lipstick: I go back and forth on this between Anastasia Liquid Lipstick and Tarte lip paint, and I think it’s gotta be the ABH. It stays on better, it comes in a much easier to apply format, and I think it smells better, too. 

Foundation: I LOVE Anastasia Luminous. It’s really expensive, but it goes a long way... and it’s buildable, comes in a ton of color shades, and isn’t heavy. It stays, too, which is GREAT. 

Concealer: Kat Von D (or whatever it’s being called now) Lock It has always done the trick for me. 

Bronzer/Highlighter: Anastasia Amrezy is SO GREAT, but I also really like BECCA’s Champagne Pop... it’s super super subtle at first swipe. 

Eyeliner: Beauty Bakerie lillipop (I think I’ve said this before) and KVD tattoo liner in trooper. I swear both of these would stay on through a damn firehose being sprayed at my face.  

Eyeshadow: So, while it’s not super expensive or considered a prestige brand, I’m gonna go with BH cosmetics for this, because all of their stuff is really nice, very pigmented and really blendable. I have not found a SINGLE palette of theirs that I have been disappointed with. My favorites? the Carli Bybel palette by BH (not the Anastasia one, even though that one’s nice too)

Anastasia makes really nice palettes, too. Norvina is beautiful, and so are Soft Glam and Subculture. 

* My favorite ever eyeshadow is actually a loose pigment that came in the KVD Serpentina palette, and it’s this gorgeous gold dust that I would bathe in if I could. 

Setting Spray: Urban Decay Up All Night. No questions asked. 

Primer: Tarte made this incredible primer with their Rainforest of the Sea collection that I haven’t been able to find for a while, but I loved it. It’s very similar to the mattifying poreless that they currently have, but it’s not quite the same. 

Facewash: Origins Checks and Balances.

Drugstore/Beginner: 

Mascara: L’oreal Voluminous. I swear by this stuff, and when I travel and don’t want to take my super expensive stuff, this always comes with me. 

Lipstick: Wet N Wild catsuit. There are a million and a half colors, it’s almost an exact dupe for Jeffree Starr velour lipsticks... an it’s $5. You literally cannot go wrong, and it doesn’t dry my lips out which is a plus. 

Foundation: I’m a sucker for NYX total control drop foundation. Can’t Stop Won’t Stop is also a good choice, but it’s a little thicker and heavier. 

Concealer: Maybelline Fit Me has always done what I need it to... Neutrogena HydroBoost is a good choice, too. 

Bronzer/Highlighter: I have a million different Wet N Wild bronzers and highlighters, and I use every single one of them. They’re really pigmented and really really fun to play around with because they all SHIFT. I love them. 

Eyeliner: I don’t use regular eyeliner pencils, because I think they’re hard to control, so NYX Matte Liquid and NYX Epic Ink are my choices here. 

Eyeshadow: Colourpop anything. I have never met a Colourpop shadow that I have hated, and for the price, you cannot beat them. I do, however, think that they have made more than enough Disney related products and need to stop. Two favorites? SOL and Exes and Ohs. The Super Shock shadow singles ... I collect those and I think I have about 15 of them? It’s a problem. 

Setting Spray: NYX has matte/dewey options, and so I like both depending on the look I’m going for. 

Primer: Maybelline FaceStudio. It’s easy to use, impossible to use too much of, and it’s really gentle. 

Facewash: Neutrogena Hydro Boost line is my go-to. I try to vary the types of face wash that I use so I cycle through three or four, but this is one that I always go back to.

PLAY! by Sephora: Worth it?

PLAY! by Sephora is one of the newer subscription boxes on the market, but has quickly gained a loyal following due to the quality of products (only brands that Sephora sells) and perks like complimentary mini makeovers, tutorials, and a 50 Beauty Points card with every box. PLAY is currently $10 per month.

It's difficult to know the true value of each box, for a few reasons: first, all Play subscribers do not get the same products - I believe this is partially based on your beauty profile, but also due to the sheer amount of subscribers, they can't send the same products to everyone.

Also, just because a box is worth $30 doesn't mean it's worth that to you - if you're not a perfume wearer or dislike matte lipsticks and masks, for example, you aren't going to be getting the same value from the box than someone who will use every item.

 Below, I’ve broken down the past three months’ PLAY boxes.

 JULY

Tarte Amazonian Clay 12 Hour Blush in Paaarty

Sample size: 1.5g

Full size & price: 5.6g - $29

Sample Value: $7.68

Tarte Color Splash Lipstick in Salt Lyfe -  Rainforest of the Sea

Sample size:035oz

Full size & price: .12oz - $21

Sample Value: $6.13

Tarte Deep Dive Cleansing Gel - Rainforest of the Sea

Sample size: 7.5mL

Full size & price: 150mL - $25

Sample Value: $1.25

Drunk Elephant Protini Polypeptide Cream

Sample size: 5mL

Full size & price: 50mL - $68

Sample Value: $6.80

Briogeo Blossom & Bloom Ginseng + Biotin Volumizing Spray

Sample size: 22mL

Full size & price:148mL - $20

Sample Value: $2.97

Boscia MATCHA Magic Super-Antioxidant Mask

Sample size: 10mL

Full size & price: 77mL - $38

Sample Value: $4.94

TOTAL BOX VALUE: $29.77

Lipstick aside (it made me look D E A D), this is a great box! The Tarte cleansing gel is gentle, yet effective at removing makeup. DE’s Protini is a product I’ve been wanting to try, and the blush is the same one I’m currently using.

 JUNE

Cover FX Perfect Setting Powder

Sample size: .1g

Full size & price: 10g - $35

Sample Value: $3.50

Clinique Take the Day Off Makeup Remover

Sample size: 30mL

Full size & price: 125mL - $19

Sample Value: $4.56

Too Faced Melted Matte Liquified Long Wear Matte Lipstick

Sample size: 3mL

Full size & price: 11.8mL - $21

Sample Value: $5.33

Sol De Janeiro Brazilian Bum Bum Cream

Sample size: 25mL

Full size & price: 240mL - $45

Sample Value: $4.69

Living Proof No Frizz Nourishing Style Cream

Sample size: 30mL

Full size & price: 250mL - $38

Sample Value: $4.56

Marajo Deep Treatment Butter & Nourishing Cleansing Creme (Bonus gift)

Sample size: 7mL

Full size & price: 250mL - $29

Sample Value: $0.812

TOTAL BOX VALUE $23.45

Aside from the lipstick (which I’ve tested before and found very drying), I’ve tried every sample so far and will definitely use them. So again, for $10 this is a good value.

Side note – the Marajo products are SO moisturizing and gentle on hair. I highly recommend trying it if you’ve been wanting to cut out shampoo but can’t go the full no-poo route.

MAY

BUXOM Lash Volumizing Mascara

Sample Size: 6mL

Full Size & price: 10 mL - $20

Sample Value: $12 (wow!)

Kat Von D Tattoo Liner 

Sample size: .2mL/.007floz

Full size & price: .55mL / $20

Sample Value: $7.27

Hourglass Veil Mineral Primer:

Sample size:.12floz / 3.6mL

Full size & price: 1oz / 30mL - $54

Sample value: $6.48

Caudalie Vinosource Moisturizing Sorbet

Sample size: 15mL

Full size & price: 40mL - $39

Sample value: $14.63 

OUAI Wave Spray

Sample size: 1.7fl oz / 50mL

Full size: 148mL - $26

(mini size is the same as Play sample and $12!)

Sample value: $8.78

Atelier Cologne Clementine California Absolue Pure Perfume

Sample size: 1.5mL

Full size: 100mL - $135

Sample value: $2.03

TOTAL BOX VALUE $51.19

Hot damn!! This box is an insane value. I’ll absolutely use the mascara, Tattoo Liner and primer, so that’s $26 already. I’ll probably give away the others, but it’s still worth it for me.

*******************************

All in all, PLAY is a great option for trying new products from prestige brands found at Sephora.

But again, the question of whether it’s worth it is very subjective based on your own preferences.

For me, though, it’s an amazing value. Thanks to this box, I haven’t bought mascara, blush, face wash, eye makeup remover or hair products (shampoo/conditioner aside) in over a year - which absolutely covers the full $120/year cost of PLAY. And then there are hundreds of dollars of additional samples over the course of the year! (Pro tip: trade samples with your subscription-box-loving friends. I give a coworker my moisturizer samples in exchange for all the dry shampoo samples she gets from Ipsy!!)

PLAY! BY SEPHORA: WORTH IT.

MAC Cosmetics needs no introduction. A well known name in the contemporary cosmetics world. Beauty enthusiasts have MAC in their kitty or bucket list! Today, let’s have a look at MAC’s cruelty-free status!

This Canada based makeup brand has now spread its wings all around the globe. MAC’s Ruby Woo is ‘the’ lipstick for all red lip lovers for a couple of decades now. You can’t ‘un-see’ the mesmerizing effects of Studio Fix Powder Compact, Fluid Foundation or Fix+ as well.

However, MAC has been criticized time and again for its shady cruelty policies. Should you buy a MAC product as a cruelty-free supporter or leave it for good? These are the facts to consider.

*Contains affiliate link(s)

Is Mac Lipstick Gluten Free

Is MAC Cosmetics Cruelty Free? Is it Vegan?

MAC – Past & Present

1984 –Makeup Art Cosmetics Inc is popularly known as MAC Cosmetics. It was founded in 1984 by two photographers turned makeup artists. They’re Frank Toskan and Frank Angelo.

This Toronto based makeup brand wanted to fill up the ridge. This gap existed between long stay and photo-friendly makeup.

Initially, MAC was popular among focused audience of fashion & makeup world. Within a few years, its popularity reached to mass beauty users.

The brand started its journey with lip colors. Later, they ventured into face makeup.

1994 –In 1994, beauty giant Estee Lauder bought major stakes of this brand.

1998 – In 1998, there was a demise of one of the founder member. As a result, Estee Lauder became the sole owner of MAC.

MAC holds its position among top 3 makeup brands in world ranking. MAC has collaborated with several huge artists. For instance, Sia, Nicki Minaj, Rihanna, & Elle Goulding.

What MAC Says about their Cruelty Free Outlook?

Here’s something interesting from MAC’s official website. It is under the tag of ‘Working Toward a Cruelty-free World”.

“M·A·C does not test on animals. We do not own any animal testing facilities and we never ask others to test on animals for us. While some governments conduct animal testing to prove safety before they will allow us to sell our products, M·A·C has never tested on animals and we continue to be a leader in the movement to end animal testing globally. To this end, we are proud to partner with IIVS (INSTITUTE FOR IN VITRO SCIENCES) to expand the use and acceptance of non-animal testing methods worldwide.”

This is the same old ambiguous statement. You can find it in every subsidiary of non-cruelty free Estee Lauder conglomerate.

The statement tries to convince you how animal-friendly MAC’s policies are. Sadly, the mention of exception breaks all the illusions MAC was trying to create.

Moreover, they do not share clear data about their ingredient testing policy. The above statement does not confirm how the suppliers treat the product ingredients.

PS: In cosmetic industry, animal testing is majorly performed at the ingredients level, not in the complete product level. Here is a detailed Cruelty Free Guide.

Cruelty free timeline

MAC used to be a biggest promoter of cruelty-free in cosmetic industry. They used to promote their products as ‘tested on models not on animals’.

But then the merger of MAC with Estee Lauder occured. (tragic!) As a result, this brought a huge change in their original policies.

Hence, MAC broke all their ethics promises towards their loyal cruelty-free consumers. And guess what?

2005 –MAC got launched in China in 2005.

They even brought changes in their testing policy. All done to entertain the mandatory animal testing practices by Chinese government.

2012 – In 2012, it was disclosed that MAC runs animal testing on their own. This news created lots of buzz among the users and beauty community.

There were urges and protests by various animal welfare organisations. For example, PETA’s youth chapter. However, MAC did not budge. No changes in any of its policies.

Is MAC Cruelty Free?

No. Nope. Nada. Nah. MAC is not a cruelty-free brand.

In fact, MAC’s parent brand is also an animal cruelty brand.

2005 – MAC used to be a cruelty free brand until 2005. In 2005 MAC started selling their products in mainland China.

Currently, they are in compliance to Chinese policies. Accordingly, all imported products have to go through mandatory animal testing step. This is the cosmetic product safety guideline over there.

2012 – MAC chose monetary gain over customer loyalty & animal welfare. Additionally, they started animal testing on their own since 2012.

Till this date, MAC funds the Chinese government to run cruelty test on their products.

Gluten Free Foundation Brands

Is MAC manufactured in China?

Not known. Majority of MAC’s color products are manufactured in US and Canada. Not adequate information is available to tell if MAC makes products in mainland China or not.

Is MAC currently being sold in China?

Yes. MAC has several standalone stores in China. Also, they sell their products through their own China website & Sephora.

MAC products are widely available both online and offline in mainland China. In fact, China is currently one of the major consumers of MAC.

Is it vegan?

No. MAC products are definitely not vegan.

MAC uses animal derived ingredients like carmine and beeswax to make their world famous makeup range.

Do we recommend MAC?

Not at all.

Sorry folks! We can’t recommend a shady brand like MAC.

MAC is neither cruelty free nor vegan. They aren’t even clean & green. Just like many other non-cruelty free brands MAC tries fool customers. They market their products as ‘never tested’ on animals.

On contrary, they allow and obviously ‘pay’ governing bodies to perform animal testing on their products.

PETA has even included MAC in their ‘brands to avoid’ list for this contrasting duality.

Alternatives to 5 Highly Recommended Products from MAC

Here are some cruelty free dupes of MAC.

MAC Retro Matte Lipstick Ruby Woo

You saw this one coming. Obviously! This is one of the bestseller worldwide. A beautiful red lipstick with ultra matte finish. This blue toned red color never goes wrong with anyone. Perhaps the reason why so many celebrities swear by it?

The best cruelty free dupe of Ruby Woo is Colourpop Ultra Matte Lip in Creeper. Affordable & cruelty free, give me one please! (I am on a lookout for a better dupe though!)

MAC Pro Longwear Concealer

MAC Pro Longwear Concealer is another star product from MAC. The wide shade range, blendable formula and superb staying power are some USP. Covergirl TrueBlend Concealer is the best cruelty free dupe of this amazing concealer. Find the list of the best cruelty free concealer here.

MAC Prep+Prime Fix+

Fix+ is MAC’s all in one prep+set product. This watery liquid is originally a fixing spray but it doubles up as primer water. You can even use it as a base for eye shadows and shimmers. NYX Dewy Setting Spray is a good dupe for this.

Is Mac Lipstick Gluten Free

MAC Eyeshadow

Rich pigment, color variety & lasting power makes MAC Eye Shadows superior. You can get dupes of the cult favorite shades from this range (Carbon, Amber lights, etc.) in Colourpop cruelty-free eyeshadow collection.

MAC Soft & Gentle Mineralize Skinfinish

One of the favorite strobe highlighter for many. ELF Baked Blush is an awesome substitute that comes with the same healthy glow and flawless finish.

Beauty on a Budget

As a University student and baby lawyer (aka legal clerk) I know what it's like to not have a big budget, but still want to look your best. Personally, here are little tricks and tools I've discovered through the years.

Start with your whole body. More fruit, lean proteins, and veggies, less processed food. It is honestly the best thing for your skin, energy levels, and your body overall. On top of that, throw some walks in and drink your water--both of which are free. Start with a good foundation, and you will spend less on beauty products to begin with. In addition, you will save time and money at the doctor's office, too.

Cetaphil and baby shampoo are the most underappreciated products ever. Seriously! Baby shampoo is gentle and will not dry out your hair, leaving it with that straw-like feel, but leave it soft and shiny. Same for cetaphil, but with your skin; your skin does a pretty good job of cleaning itself. It just needs a gentle cleanser (aside from cystic acne or other serious medical problems, ofc. Talk to your doctor.) To get the job done. Cetaphil moisturizer comes in a giant bulk bottle and one half pump will do the trick. It's a great value.

Coconut oil. In my experience, this stuff is all purpose and comes in a bulk tub for around 10 bucks. You can use it on the ends of your hair to fix breakage and split ends, which is how I use it, or my boyfriend has used it to soften up bumpy, dry, damaged patches on his arms. In addition, it's a great anti-fungal, so if you have a problem with dandruff or build up, coconut oil has your back. Just heat it up, apply to dry or wet hair, leave it in for as long as you can, and wash your hair. Or heat between your fingers and apply to the ends of your hair while it's drying to fix breakage. We've even used it as lube (do not use with latex condoms).

Drug Store Make-up. I don't care what YouTube gurus say, some of this s*** is good s***. Maybelline's FitMe powder and foundation is seriously amazing and finishes as smooth as prestige products. If you have sensitive skin or allergies, try physicians formula, or stick with prestige. Maybelline Falsies mascara (the one in the pink bottle) is amazing, too. Cherubs will kiss your eyelashes. For lipsticks, Revlon is pretty solid, and has like, millions of colours. If you wanna be extra fancy and get falsies, you can buy a pack of 5 or 6 pretty cheap at the grocery store, too. For makeup removal, stick with a hot washcloth and elbow grease, then cleanse. No need to waste money on wipes that are really harsh on your skin. Like I said, your skin can take care of itself p well.

Those 99 cent lil hair mask packets are p nifty tbh. Especially anything with argan oil or coconut oil 👌👌

Annnddd that's all I can think of atm, but there are of course tons more tips out there.

***edit: a lovely soul reminded me that baby oil is a great tool for removing makeup such as stubborn mattes if elbow grease isn't doing the trick. @adulting-isnt-easy****

Our first family day of the school year was a complete success! On November 8th The History Center held it's first public in-person event since March. 90 people were able to safely enjoy this free program about the lives of early American farming families through living history, hands-on activities, and traditional folk dance. Some of the stations include candle making, blacksmithing, homestead tools, and a corn husk doll craft. We had many safety protocols in place to adhere to the state guidelines regarding Covid-19. It certainly looks rather different than our family days last year, but a good time was had by all, and lots of learning happened.

We have been nominated for the Best of Hall County Awards in the Museum category! Anyone can vote and you get one vote per day. Please take a moment to vote for us at this link and every day of November: Best of Hall County Awards

The Cottrell Digital Studio continues to reach students and families across the nation through Live Webcasts! Most recently we conducted four webcasts in a single day in which multiple classes in Dodge County, Georgia met Austin Dabney and Giles Harris, two soldiers in the American Revolution.

Austin Dabney was an enslaved African American who became the only Black patriot to be granted land by the state of Georgia in recognition of his service. He was also one of the few to receive a federal military pension.Born enslaved, Austin’s enslaver Richard Aycock sent Austin as his substitute to fight in the war for him. Austin served as an artilleryman and was wounded in the Battle of Kettle Creek in 1779. Giles Harris, a white soldier, took Austin to safety and to his own home to recover. Giles and Austin were lifelong friends after the war.

Meet Mr. Dabney yourself during a live Webcast! All Webcasts are free to Georgia educators with at least 20 students. We also provide Webcasts for groups of at least 20 on a donation basis. More info at www.negahc.org/digital-programs.

In the age of glamour, famous night clubs dotted New York City. The Stork Club was one of these and stood proudly in Manhattan from 1929-1965. The Stork Club exemplified a rising “café society” in which movie stars, aristocrats, and anyone else with prestige intermingled generating gossip and helping to create the notion of celebrity we have today. Though it was richly decorated with mirrored walls and gold fixtures, the patrons were the main draw to the club. It was a place people went to see and be seen, and the club’s owner, Sherman Billingsley, kept high profile visitors coming back by paying their tabs and bestowing lavish gifts. Special items emblazoned with the Stork Club’s logo were also created—like this lipstick tube! “Jacqueline” is the color inside which is a red-gold. There is very little lipstick left in the tube in the same way there is little left of the Stork Club which closed unceremoniously in the 60’s and was demolished not long after to make way for a park. Still, this small tube serves as a dainty reminder of a glittering time long past.

Storytelling and creation is a great way to encourage young readers to use their imaginations and understand the elements of a story. In our Virtual Gainesville Reads lessons, we have just finished our first adventure game which introduces new vocabulary and concepts to students by collaborating on a story together. Our Gainesville Reads students have really taken to this and created a fun and exciting adventure together called The Legend of the Wish Flower. Each student developed their own character with specific attributes, skills, and personality like Tigon the Tiger King, a magical Princess, a cunning ninja, a clumsy wizard, and more. Program Manager Libba Beaucham said, "It's been so wonderful to see students who were initially shy about speaking up become so excited to jump in with such creative (and often hilarious) ideas." We would like to say a big thank you to our volunteer Matt House who leads the adventure game.We will share a comic book version of The Legend of the Wish Flower with you all soon! If you know a child in 2nd - 5th grade that would benefit from this program, please contact Program Manager Libba Beaucham at libba.beaucham@brenau.edu.

Coming in December we will be hosting a NEGAHC Telethon! The proceeds from the 24-hour telethon will go towards updating exhibits and to day-to-day operations. Stay tuned for more information, coming soon!

Seen for the first time in a smartphone, OPPO A93 introduces a thin 220º Edge that also offers a more comfortable and smoother in-hand feel.

This is thanks to OPPO A93s rounded edge design, which refracts light at the top of the rounded point to accentuate its thin appearance and accentuates the comfortable in-hand feel.

Shiny Matte uses a brand-new optical coating technique that increases the coatings depth from 250 nanometers to 400 nanometers, which accentuates the lights refraction, while enhancing the colors. OPPO A93 will come with the Shiny Matte texture in two colors.

Magic Blue showcases a unique blend of blue and purple colors that appear to reflect a new color with every angle. Matte Black is a color that screams prestige and is inspired by high-end automobiles.

AI Portrait Color mutes the background colors black and white, while enhancing the natural colors of the person or a group of people within the photo using AI.

Fast Charge Less Waiting on a Charge OPPO A93 introduces ways to optimize the phone’s battery life during the day or while the user is asleep.

AI Night Charging uses AI Learning through machine learning to learn the user’s sleep habits and charge the phone exactly to 100% upon the moment they wake up from their slumber.

In the worst-case scenario, if you are without a battery charger during the day, Superpower Saving Mode optimizes the last 5% of your battery life by turning the display black and white, while running just six predetermined apps.

Fast, Convenient and Smooth User Experience OPPO A93s optimized user experience starts with its powerful MediaTek Helio P95 AI chipset, 8GB of memory and 128GB of storage, which can be extended up to 512GB through a 3-Card Slot.

OPPO A93s Anti-Lag Algorithm can detect and clear data that cause memory errors, making stutters and freezes less likely. As an added benefit, reading and writing data in the file system becomes faster and more efficient.

With improvements to the Memory Defragmentation feature, the chance that the phone stutters is reduced by up to 54% as compared to the previous generation, while file reading and writing performance is improved by up to 28% thanks to Automatic Database Optimization.

With Air Gestures one can pick up calls without directly touching the phone by simply waving their hand as far as 20 cm or even 50 cm.

Consumers will also enjoy the intuitive and simplified user interface in ColorOS 7.2s Infinite Edge Design, or the ability to personalize the home screen with Artist Wallpapers, designed by renowned artists.

One can even enjoy their favorite videos or games with OPPOs Screen Image Engine (OSIE) Ultra Clear Visual Effect, which enhances the clarity of third party video apps, or safely and comfortably browse their phone all day with Dark Mode, which supports Eye Care Mode.

With the latest version of Dark Mode power consumption is reduced by 38%, On and Off times can be customized, and users can adjust the dark colors tone to their preference.

For an added degree of safety, you can even create multiple user accounts on your phone with Multi-User Mode, which partitions up to five separate spaces for each user, sub-user and visitor and requires passwords to access each account

At the same time with ColorOS 7.2 its fast and easy to access information starting with Quick Return Bubble enables one to multitask on their phone.

When switching apps or screens, a floating bubble pops up and keeps track of the app or games status, where one can return to at a later time with a simple tap.
