Get yourself to superdrug and give Sleek, famous and MUA a go :) I'm loving inglot, lime crime and sugarpill too at the minute if you like super bright and really pigmented eyeshadows. Have fun!
Tinted moisturizer is always a great replacement for foundation.
When i need some cover up, I have some and use it instead of foundation.
Its better for your skin and leaves a pretty good finish.
You just have to get the right colour
I was going through the same thing and I just really stocked up on new purchases of things I already but in diff colors.
eyeliner: I love Black eyeliner but I went to Inglot and bought a lime green eyeliner and a purple eyeliner... now I alternate
Face: I was devoted to Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer but now I bought Urban Decay naked skin foundation and I love it
eye shadow: I bought a HUGE Inglot Freedom system palette (check it out) you get to create your own palette at your own pace from scratch I love doing it, the eye shadows are amazing and it doesn't completely break the bank and the colors are BEAUTIFUL.
Lips: Lime Crime Opaque Lipsticks and OCC Lip Tars, idk how i lived without these!
Hope you get some inspiration and a great new set of makeup
I know how you feel. I felt the same way last year and decided to try lipsticks. Having always been a lip balm kinda girl, I decided to fully commit to super-bright colours and now I'm hooked on reds and hot pinks. The Lime Crime and MUFE Rouge Artist Intense lipsticks are amazing. They don't dry out my lips and they last and last. Have fun!
