Glad its not just me then  :-[

No not just you. My ex flatmate used to go for full coverage. It looked beautiful. Every day I see that young woman working at my near shop wearing full coverage and I love it on her, it's stunning. But I would never wear it myself one because it doesn't suit me and i wouldn't feel comfortable and two because my skin doesn't need it. Not to mention the fact that I would never be able to pull it off lol.

I do love sometimes spending hours doing my eyes. Like once a year:) I have small lips so I put more accent on my eyes anyway and lips are just a nice soft gloss, I never go for both.

well i found if  i  do use primer, i don't  get  any  spots  etc ..well cleanser, toner, after caffeine solution 5% + egcg (reduce  dark  circles), hyaluronic acid 2% + b5 (hydrate ), cream with SPF, we have just one skin  so we should take  care of.  for nigh  have  i have  retinol  or  vitamin  C,  caffeine  again, oils  and  night  creams,  to be honest  i wasn't   intro  skin care at all, but  getting   older, thinking  about  investing more to my self, and i have to say   i see huge difference.

I have a tiny makeup bag at my work flat with a few bits in and that's it - I'm curious as to how long the people who wear dozens of different things need to put it all on as it would take me forever? I don't even recognise most of it and I know I couldn't be bothered to redo that between all bookings so I'm guessing it stays put pretty well (which is the whole point of the thread I suppose).

I bought an eyebrow compact set from Superdrug which was less than a fiver and it's great, although it doesn't fit in my make up bag properly. My next problem is going to be finding a foundation that's pale enough when my bottle wears out - I only wear a tiny dab if I need it but my favourite has long since been discontinued and I'm on the last of the three bottles I bought about five years ago so if anybody can recommend one that would be fab :D.

I'm forever getting free samples from Debenhams, fenwicks etc , chanel , Dior etc and they're mega pale, I'm quite olive skinned but they're great for travelling , I buy clinique only because I've decided the last one lasted me around five years and cost 20 quid and since it ran out I have bought loads for 5,6,7,8 pounds a throw that are no good so bought a new one that'll last ages !

Go to Clarins ask for samples. Most specialists are lovely, even if they don't have a sample of specific colour you need (there's a few pale shades), they can make one for you. Clinique has a few pale shades and if you look into L'Or?al stuff there's pale shades as well (you can test in the shop and just pop out of the shop have a proper look at the shade in daylight if you test on your skin). Vichy has a couple of lovely pale shades but not sure if easy to find.

Well my whole make up takes maybe 15 min max. I can pull it all off in 3 min if I must but unlike you I travel with a lot of stuff. Though it's more skincare and other beauty products that I can't live without, make up is always secondary. You can look great with glowing skin, lipstick and mascara.

My makeup is quite minimal. I'm very lightskinned and I've found the Dior Airflash foundation in the palest colour is just right, and it feels really light and stays on all day without touchups. It was ?28 which made me  :o but it's lasted me 2 months so far and I'm not even halfway through it. I don't wear it every day though, only if my skin looks shitty due to illness.

Moisturiser post shower, get dressed whilst that sinks in
Primer, finish getting dressed so it has a few mins to settle
Concealer under eyes
Mac foundation
Blusher
Contour & highlight
Powder, but usually just setting spray

Setting spray is something I swear by in my bag, a good one and your make up will last hours. Usually I only need to touch up my chin/mouth area if a client has a tendency to lick off my make up whilst kissing, but my make up doesn't budge.
It takes me about 15-20 mins once I've sat down to start applying concealer. I don't wear eyeshadows in bookings and rarely lipstick either - I have eyelash extensions so I don't bother with mascara anymore.

I swear by Mac foundation - a little goes a long way if you use a brush/beauty blender, and my bottle has easily lasted me 4 months before I had to think about buying another. And I wear foundation near enough every day.

Re primer and another layer - some can have a mattifying effect and make you feel like its another layer. Others just smooth out pores and make your foundation slide on easier. I think its personal preference though, I prefer the matte finish but if I was strobing etc I'd probably want dewy.

Hi ladies hope you are all well, I haven't read all of the comments but there are a few products I swear by, I work mainly doing tantric naked massage so the is oil and heat flying about the place and aswell as assisted showers and here are my holly grails, (there are a few body shop products on my list but I don't work for them or sell there stuff in those silly party's they do so don't worry!) I'm really super pale and ivory is still too dark for me so all this stuff is fod super pale skin aswell as suited for webcam.

1- benefit lemmonaid on eyes - ?15 but lasts me all year if not longer
2- body shop vitamin c serum under make up as a primer - fixes it all
3- lorial true match foundation in ivory
4- mac highlighter (especially on webcam the fleek is amazing)
5- freedom eyebrow palmaid (is a dupe of abh and is only ?5 as appose to abh ?25 Iv got both and apart from the brush there's no difference)
6 - body shop foundation lighting drops these drops are amazing!!! Lightens your foundation to upto 4 shades lighter they also do a darker skin variety too.
7- I used to swar by rimmel appcolips and haven't found anything I like just as much but I do quite like the Bonjorus liquid lipsticks - they don't budge so youl need eye make up to remove them at ?7 they are pretty affordable too.
8- can't go wrong with collection concealer and loose powder.

The only thing Iv never found a good dupe for is chinele kohl eyeliner as I have a watery eye so the ?25 is a lot but it lasts for about a year till I lose it and have to get another. I also found that using a real beauty blender beets everything elce in the way, ?15 for a sponge is abit 🙈😞 but trust me it's worth every penny.  X

Hi amy I have pale skin that's very sensitive so sensitive I unfortunately have to use boots no7 foundation or stuff from makeup counters at Debenhams like mac . No7 cater for very pale skin their foundation starts from ?10 upwards and they will colour match you to find your exact shade x

I have pretty small lips so I always worry about them ending up bare after a session.  I've recently discovered a Korean "peel off lip tattoo stain"  which is around ?15 for four colours on amazon at the moment and leaves me with sexy bitten looking lips,  even after a messy blow job!

I've not used it myself, but Dermablend seems to be the brand for this.
