I like mascaras with thin rubber wands too (my lashes are long but they're blonde, so I look quite silly if I don't get to the roots). My current favourites are No7 Stay Perfect and elf Lash Xtndr.

I find the elf one slightly “dry” but I wonder whether it’s because I have the brown one!

I'm really rooting for a MAC color match on that palette. My coloring is very similar to yours so if you adore an eyeshadow shade, I normally do too. It's an added source of delight for me when reading your blog posts. Sadly, several years ago when choosing between your favorite and the warm tones, I went with the warm tones. I've regretted it ever since. I never wear them. They are lovely, but I find more and more that my sweet spot is true neutrals. So, a long-winded appeal for color matching from a long long time blog reader. <3

I Am Loving the ‘Talk-through’ / mini-Podcast Add-on to the standard-version !! ALSO: I Have News ! I am pretty sure that the Wonderful and World-renowned MUA Louise Young (the one who makes the Amazing brushes) has an eyeshadow version of the Becca one, which is Very similar… Will hunt it down when I’m back from Holiday (Turkey - So Nice) but I reckon it’ll be available online… Shall report back.

I’m on it, Kat! Yeah, I’ve often opted for the warm tones because to my eye they always just look prettier in the palette. Usually a big mistake!

I'd love to see a recreation of your wedding makeup! It's always interesting to see how people make makeup last all day and look flattering for their wedding looks, so I'm curious about what you used and how you used it. :)

Oh my god it was almost twenty years ago! 🤣 I’ll ask my friend. Let’s see how her memory is serving her. Lovely idea for a video, thank you! X
