Hi people, I've had save some money to do a splurge on some makeup for my birthday but now I don't know what to get.
I want to get some inglot shadows but then I'm like you have too much eyeshadows.
I want the MAC face and body foundation but I don't think they have it here locally but I have to go check.
So idk, I guess I'm going for either a bronzer or good light/medium coverage foundation. Locally we have MAC, Clinique, Bobby Brown, Inglot, YSL, Clarins and either Dior or Lancome.
Any recommendation? If anything fails I would get some inglot e/s. :)
PS. I have a dark complexion with combination skin.
I would recommend Inglot. You really get an amazing bang for your buck. You could do eyeshadow and blush palettes- as well as maybe grabbing their AMC gel eyeliner (supposed to be better than MAC's Fluidlines).
You can never have too many eye shadows. I do love Inglot. Their gel liners are great.
Check out YSL's new glossy stains. You have to go swatch them because it definitely darkens once it sets and is darker if your lips are pigmented. I've become addicted to them and picked up five or six. Despite the color on the wand, think of them all as reds that lean towards the wand color. The purple is more of a purplish-plum; the brown is more like a reddish brown/raisin; the orange is a red-orange. They're fantastic and last hours.
Well what is your collection missing? Do you need a new foundation for the summer? MAC's Face & Body is such a beautiful finish for the summer and really light feeling with light to medium coverage. Check out Bobbi Brown's Shimmer Bricks too I think you might like them and they would look gorgeous on your skintone :)
Thanks ladies. I am going to check out the inglot shadows, although I thinking of getting the coastal scents hot pots and save some cash. But I'm def getting something from inglot.
Hey Deisha, I think since you have a lot of eye shadows already I think you should try something new. I have use the Mac face and body foundation and it's pretty good. It gives a very light coverage making it look like you have great skin. If you can't find it in your local Mac store they do have it online.

I would suggest MAC! They have good coverage, from light to full, and it's not super expensive :)
