Hi guys! Recently I've had a few people inquire about me doing their wedding makeup/event makeup for them. And I'm super excited to do it, but I need to definitely get some foundation and concealer palettes.
My shade is the lightest shade possible in almost every brand. Sometimes even that is too dark. So my foundation obviously won't work for everyone.
What companies have some good quality palettes I can look into?
I'm definitely not thinking MAC, because I'm basically a poor college kid with a minimum wage job, I can't even afford MAC for myself. xD
Any suggestions?!
Graftobian has some fantastic palettes which are like, six dollars. And all these that I'll mention are cream formula, so in theory, you could use them as concealer if it's concentrated enough. But I just use the generic concealer pallet you find everywhere on eBay and such. Coastal scents has one called the Eclipse palett. Anyways, other good foundation palettes are the Studio Secrets ones, and the MUFE ones which are more expensive. But my graftobian ones are fantastic. I'm lucky enough to have a store nearby that sells them, but you might have better luck online. The one you'll find in stores is the MUFE ones at Sephora. Anyways, best of luck to you! Hope these gigs turn out well! :D
I was definitely thinking of looking into Coastal Scents, they seem to have reasonably prices palettes for everything. I'm also considering getting a neutral eyeshadow palette, since I never use neutrals, and it'd be specifically for gigs and such. And I know they have one!
I have the coastal scents palettes the eclipse and the other one with 10 concealers its larger less colors. they are ok. I used a one of the colors that was lighter on me to make me fair for a vampire halloween look i did i sheered it out my mixing it with moisturizer because i didnt have any fair foundation. It looked a little um grainy i dont know how to explain it. Also i looked on thier website just now and they dont sell it anymore. Bh cosmetics has the 10 color concealer palette i own. Very affordable. the one that i spoke of. http://www.bhcosmetics.com/products...
