Ok ladies, I'm going shopping tomorrow and I need help deciding on a few things. I need a good crease brush, a setting powder, a really good liquid liner and a couple of mac lipsticks. I'm in Australia so my option of brands are quite limited but suggestions would be amazing. Thanks in advance.

Oh and even though I really do not need another foundation I'm always open to suggestions for that too! :)

Mac mineralized skin finish natural is a nice setting powder. I've heard they sell Korean BB creams in Australia so I would reccomend trying one, I think they have the brands etude house, leoele, skin79 and holika holika. I've heard good things about the Korean beauty products.

Thanks, I will check out that powder. I have never seen those brands in any stores here so maybe it's just online.

Rimmel stay matte powder is perfect for oily skin and revlon colour stay foundation is really good too for oily skin although I've been hearing rave reviews on loreal true match so that's probably worth a look. I don't have any mac lipsticks but the ones I'm currently lusting over are vegas volt, sushi kiss, saint germain and ruby woo. Happy shopping! :-)

I really wish the rimmel powder and revlon and loreal foundations worked as well for me as they seem to do for everyone else but I hated all of them :( Thank you though.

Do you have Lorac? I've always been a liquid liner lover, so always looking for the perfect one, and never quite happy. But, Lorac's Front of the Line Pro is my hg.

I second Natalie on MAC's MSF Naturals. They are great setting powders, but can be built up on their own to a medium level of coverage. Love love love!

MAC brushes are good, I love makeup for ever translucent powder, loreal has good liquid liner but I like maybelline gel liner, about mac lipsticks vegas volt, morange, girl about town, candy yum yum, happy go lucky, angel, pink pigeon and ruby woo are few of my fav.

For foundation I love estee lauder and recently tried Urban decay naked foundation loved the finish but unfortunately was not able to get my shade as they were out of stock.. :(

No Bree, unfortunately we don't have Lorac :(

Thanks Fazila! I really wish we had makeup forever and urban decay too. It really sucks not having so many good brands. I personally wasn't a fan of the maybelline gel liner or the 3 loreal eyeliners I've tried but I am very fussy. I'm sure I will find the perfect one eventually. I already have Estée Lauder double wear but that's something along the lines of what I'm looking for. And thank you so much for the mac recs! I will definitely check those shades out

Dee-Ann I too live in a place whr many brands are not available so I order online. Also I have heard great review about lancome teint idole foundation check it if you have that brand in Australia.

Dee-Ann, check to shiseido cream foundation sticks, I'm in love. I use double wear as well so it comes tried and tested. Also check out Nars foundation downside, I couldn't find my shade but it feels great on the skin. Check out inglots gel liner, been hearing good things about it. I use Nars translucent setting powder. For Mac I see you're gutsy and wear bold colours so I won't put my two cents in :) Btw, I live in Vic and it's all avail here. X.

Kat Von D tattoo liner goes on so smooth. It's a pen though but that makes it so easy to use. For Mac lipsticks I really like craving and plumful.

I've didn't like that foundation either unfortunately Fazila. I order a lot of stuff online too but I love being able to try things first :)

Thanks Cass, I will definitely check out Shiseido. I've been wanting to try that Nars powder for so long but the nearest shop that sells Nars is an hour away so it will have to wait. I always forget about inglot though!! I've heard really good things about their eyeliner so I might go with that one :)

I would love so much if we had Kat Von D here, I would probably buy every single one of her products, I'm so in love with them. I will check out those 2 mac shades though, thanks Brittany
