Karima, you never cease to amaze me. The way you articulate your descriptions and opinions is just superb. Especially when I think of others here on YT doing reviews and recommendations.... Wow. There's just no comparison! I've read a few comments here and there on your channel of people saying they don't like the way you speak and it sounds pretentious. I honestly think they're just so used to hearing others do subpar reviews that they don't know how to truly understand a professional like yourself. I'm SO happy I've found your channel and blog (and Sharon's!!) and really, REALLY look forward to watching you grow and continue to learn more and more from you. Seriously, you should be proud of the level of content you produce for your channel and blog, it's unmatched!! 😘😘😘

Face powders would be awesome. I found very little info on face powders when I went looking for a new everyday one about a month ago. I knew I wanted a change from the Mac but found little or no info besides a drugstore comparison by LoveMelisaMichelle from years ago. When I went out to buy it I was thinking of those Veil Ambient Lighting powders but couldn't have worn that sort of finish all over my 30 year old face so I ended up settling on Bare Minerals Original and it's turning out fantastic! I'd love to see an Aussie take with more high end though.

Setting Powders/Powder Foundations. I've had a hard time finding a good powder that doesn't look like it's just sitting on top of my skin and make me look complete flat and matte. I have oily skin, and I don't have any dry flakes, but when I look closely into the mirror, I can still see the powder sitting there. I've tried some natural looking powders but they don't absorb oil all that well and they seem to fade quickly :(

I also have Maybelline Age Rewind, which I like consistency-wise but, as someone said, the see-through lightness actually highlights the dark circles more! Tbh I'm quite happy with Dior but if you've tried LM, I would love a second (3,4,5th!) opinion :) Thanks!

Never liked the MUFE Full cover for under the eyes, tried it once and was a no no. It's waterproof so I gather that's why it's so sticky and thick. I always believed the Maybelline to have medium coverage, that damn sponge applicator though :/ I feel like with concealers the formula's are either too creamy (Bobbi Brown Creamy Concealer) migrates like crazy or too thick and drying. There's no perfect in between. Maybe there's a perfect foundation out there that works better as an under eye concealer. Just need to find it.

I have all of the concealers you listed except for the Maybelline Dream Lumi, the Diorskin Nude, and the Make Up Forever. Honestly, I had not found any concealer that had good coverage and didn't crease and didn't accentuate fine lines UNTIL I discovered DHC Q10 Moisture Eye Care Zone Treatment Retouch concealers (in Peach and Buff). First I use Peach to color correct the dark circles underneath my eyes, then apply Buff to brighten. I set with ELF's HD Undereye Setting Powder. That combo so far is my holy grail: dark circles are covered, eye area looks brighter, and NO creasing or cakiness!

LOVE the Smackdown idea. I don't know if you wanted people to share any "surprise discoveries" they may have made (and I do mean surprise!), but my Mum recently relinquished her Napoleon Perdis "The One" concealer to me. I'd thought it was an interesting pigment or something until told otherwise... My mother & I are both very pale (MAC NW10-15) but I have to confess that if I apply a tiny amount of the NP under-eye concealer, layered with a bit of the palest Bourjois CC Concealer & set with powder, my hereditary blue under-eye area really is neutralized. Never thought it would work, and in general, I'm not a great fan of NP but I thought it might just help others with the same problem.

Hi Karima, for Fit Me concealer, you should go for shade 10. I purchased three of them, 10, 15 and 20. My skin tone (N/NC20) is very close to yours and 10 fits me best. 15 is a little bit pinky while 20 is, as you know, too dark.
