This is a continuation thread, the old thread is [split]44481[/split]
does anyone know a good sunblock for your face? my moisturiser has a little spf in it, but my skin is actually white. thing is I can be acne-prone and hate using sunblock on my face, but with such pale skin I don't really think I have any other option. any good ones that are suitable for us pale girls but don't break you out?
Shiseido makes my favorite at the moment. It does well under make-up, isn't greasy, and doesn't break me out.
I'm on the search for it's equal in quality, but with a smaller price tag.
^Second the Shiseido rec. I have translucent skin (natural redhead, ultra pale to the point that the lightest shades of most brands are too dark for my skin) that's insanely sensitive to sun, and I love this stuff. Go for the lotion, not the cream, it's thinner and won't cause break outs. I had to switch to a straight up sunblock because I needed the higher SPF, but if you're not as sun sensitive you could try using a light primer with SPF (they usually range from like 15-25).
I seem to always be in search of a good brow pencil/powder, as well. I am a redhead too, but on the brown-ish side. I agree some pencils for redheads can look clownish!On the subject of translucent skin, anyone have a recommendation for a super fair brow powder? Right now I'm using the lighter color in the lightest blond shade from Anastasia (I have red hair but blond brows and the red toned shades look awful on me anyways) and it's still too dark on me. Great for nighttime but I need something that's a true light blond for day. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
And now I feel like an idiot. I have a lovely brush but that had never occurred to me. Maybe I should actually start reading the beauty sections in magazines instead of just looking at the pictures and thinking 'ooooh, pretty!'You can always use any eyeshadow with an angled brush.
