It looks like a lipstick thats been blotted to look like a stain. Any ideas on what shade that is? I like MAC lipsticks, but I'm open to any other brand suggestions as well I appreciate all your answers, thanks!

The MUFE site says to apply with a sponge or fingers, but I really don't like either of those methods. So, what is your favourite way of applying MUFE Face & Body foundation? What brush (any brand) do you use to achieve the most flawless and natural look? Thanks in advance! Note: I'm looking...

I'm looking for a stick/cream concealer I can get at the drugstore that works well at cancelling out my pigmented lips. I'm NC15-20 and my lips are too dark and reddish to pull off the peachy nude lip look. I can't find a good lipstick to achieve that look, but I really like this light peachy...

I have 5 Urban Decay shadows that I would like put together in a palette and I found out that NYX carries 5-pan filled palettes for $8. So can I empty out the NYX eyshadows and fill them with my UD ones? If they do fit, what all do I need? Does it need to be magnetized? How do I do that...

I'm interested in the L'Oreal Excellence HiColor in Copper Red, but I don't know what level it is. Here it is at sallybeauty.com (I don't know how accurate the online swatches are...) I'm planning on using a 20 developer as I don't want it too bright, I'm trying to get close to a level 6, maybe...

I LOVE Coco Rocha's hair colour in this ad! I would describe it maybe as a medium-dark copper red. I picked up L'Oreal Preference Mega Reds in MR7 Dark Intense Copper Red at Sally Beauty and it just turned out much too dark (I thought the bottle said it was a level 5). My hair will lighten back...

I'm looking for a good dupe for that pretty gold colour from the Notoriety Quad, Skintone 2. Other MAC gold e/s have too much yellow for me but this seemed very neutral. I've been eyeing Urban Decay's Half Baked lately and I'm wondering if they are close? Thanks in advance!

What brush or applicator is your favorite to use with Revlon ColorStay foundation? Why? I'm new to liquid foundations and have no clue how to apply without it looking apparent that I'm wearing it. Thanks for your help!

I'm looking for this peachy lipstick shade in the pictures below. Any recommendations? I like MAC and NARS lipsticks especially, but if you know of another brand that looks very similar to this, I'd really like to know! I appreciate all your answers, thanks!
