Oh hai and welcome to my humble youtube abode!
My name is Mariam. Born in Bulgaria, of Armenian heritage, currently residing in the Netherlands.

In NL, the two BB quads are still available on Douglas and De Bijenkorf. I would recommend going with Douglas since they run sales often and these quads are included. No idea for how long they will be around.

A VERY Special Pat Pairing collab with MARTINA LILY!!!!
Wow makes me want to go try it out in the store. Nice look for work 😊
Lancome eyeshadows are very underrated imo but the fact they're still around means that they've stood the test of time. I have a few of their palettes & find them very flattering on my maturing eye lids. Easy non complicated colour stories with a beautiful formula.
They are indeed a very flattering formula on textured skin. I love them so much!!
These are so expensive but it makes sense when you see them because wow they’re big!
We want to see your jumpsuit 👀
I will stand up next time, it is SO pretty!!!
Gorgeous look. Thank you for the chat ❤
Thank you lovely! 💕
I bought Bronze Absolue after your video. Lancôme is so underrated, but I admit I have to feel a bit more like a grown up to reach for them. The foundation stick of theirs is a DREAM. I want the bronzer next. I didn’t really clock the earrings right away, but as soon as you put the lipstick on, it was a WOW moment. Perfect with the nude eye and b&w outfit. Btw, I bought the Guerlain x Pucci quad (for the packaging!) and you’re right, the eyeshadows are pressed powder, not baked gelee. I created an eye look today with all four colors (white all over, red mixed with white in the crease and outer corner, purple on outer half and also smudged over the black as eyeliner). I liked it so well, I forgot to put on a sparkle topper, and I almost never wear an all-matte look!
Haha Lancome does seem to have that vibe don't they! The regular pressed mattes from Guerlain are exquisite too but I just don't think they are special enough comapred to the baked gelee.
Both those Lancome pallets look up my alley , I have been into matt neutral shadows all summer and that one is pretty. I tried a Lancome shadow pallet like 10 years ago randomly and I didn't care for it I don't even know how I got it to tell you the truth if it was a free gift or what but their was one shade I hit pan on but my preference has really changed sense then and Idk if that pallet I had was one of their better formula so I'm up to try that neutral one. I wish I could find a good neutral pallet that is all in one I find myself going into a few different ones for the colors I want . Today I mixed the YSL 200 quad the 2 Matt's top 2nd with the bottom first to make the shade I wanted. I really hate the sparkle shades in those YSL pallets I like a smooth sheen not a bunch of peicy glitter. It's like every pallet these days has those peicy glitter shades in them even the TF wet dry formula isnt the same anymore with those glitter specks in them. 😂 I am glitter hating obviously
Time to give Lancome another try I reckon. I will admit, I decluttred my only YSL quad. It just isn't my formula.
I will get the ND palette eventually…just waiting for a sale. I have not tired the Lancôme formula…I have my Chanel shadows that I love instead. I must admit I like the Lisa formula but it is not my favorite because it does not seem to last. I am tempted by the UD Naked palette. That is my OG color story.
I think many people are falling for the obvious nostalgia trick that UD is pulling. I think Naked should be left to rest in the past where she belongs. Make something new UD, don't rehash!
I always lit a candle when i had people over my parents house, and now in mine, and now while it's 40 C and humid here, I'm thinking i should make the time to make some candles with the new nice autumnal scent i got last year. 😂
Wait make!?? You make your own candles?? (I love candles…hence the whole bathroom-gate 😂)
@@mariam.a. I thought most of us make their own candles by now, judging by the people who got into it during dockdowns. Ive been making them since i remember myself, through studying abroad, sold some during xmas, and still making some for presents, tiny orders and myself and family. ❤️
@@RaniaMich Hahaha not me! I got into making home made broth and ice-cream during lockdown. Cool hobby though and great for gift giving!!
@@mariam.a. I also cooked, baked, and ate like there was no tomorrow (because that's what it felt like), so i feel ya. X
@@RaniaMich 🤣🤣🤣
What about PMG quints? Are they similar formula-wise to Lancome? I thought they were similar. Thank you for the video!
Pmg quints are rather an unique formula, they are very very creamy. I believe they are 'poured' into the pan and then set. Lancome shadows seem to be a pressed powder.
@@RoseOfMadina Thank you for your reply! I appreciate it! I believe Lancome shadows are also poured into the pan in these quints.
The mattes are similarly flattering on the eye, but the PML formula is slightly more powdery...Lancome is more of a cream to powder. Very little powder kick up, applies like a cream. Both stunning though!! I hope PML brings out more this holiday.
@@divisioneparzero Yes that is correct, they are not in metal pans either.
Morning! What a pretty palette! I love Ribbon on you, it's so Mariam 🤩 I enjoy mine a lot, the taupe one. I can't really explain it, but this formula is so flattering on more mature skin... The ND palette is a hard pass for me. Seems like she's releasing on a monthly basis palettes and the shades are very similar. I don't know why, but I hardly reach for them any more. Time to declutter
Ribbon is the reining queen of my red lipstick collection. The taupe one is honestly next on my list...the only thing stopping me is Vega from LE haha. I somehow lose interest if a brand starts to release stuff left and right.
@@mariam.a. I totally get it! Vega and the taupe one are both so pretty 🥰
@@verenaweisz1713 I believe you, I might get the taupe one eventually too.
😩 Lancôme eyeshadows are similar to the LE formula!!!? Don’t tell me that! Lisa’s formulas are my stinking favorite, and I in no way need another eyeshadow palette. Except now I might need another eyeshadow pallet.
Haha I am sorry, but it's true...the mattes are super similar....that lovely cream to powder blurring goodness.
Such a soft, pretty look! Keep us posted as to the longevity of the Dior lipliner 😊
So far so good! Better than the LE sculpt ones.
@@mariam.a. thanks that’s helpful!
I like your jump suit so much!! This palette is not my cup of tea in terms of color story but it’s perfect on you! You rock terracotta shades! ❤
It is stunning, and I am extra happy that I bough it half off haha. It was literally the last one in the store and it was an XS size so I almost didn't even try t because I thought there is no way my butt will fit through XS...but the cut is quite wide so I did, happy days. Hmmm I would not say that they are terracotta, except for the lightest shade. I am not sure how they would translate on cooler skin though.
You make me want to buy all the Lancôme products right away 😅❤
They are really good though!
Another new Lancôme quint!! Woot!! I’ve been looking for Bronze Absolu, but it’s not on the US Lancôme site anymore. I need to look at department stores! I did see they have a new colorstory out that looks a lot like the Tweed Victoria Beckham eye brick. This new palette is a great color story. I LOVE LOVE LOVE the new Prada powder. It’s so good! It doesn’t look green on me (but I’m a light olive so I’m kind of green to start out!)
Damn I have heard that from more people. Here it is available everywhere....maybe not carried in the US? You have to tell me more about the Prada powder!!!! What do you like about it? Is it good for oily skin? Is it blurring?
@@mariam.a. I’ve had very oily skin my whole life. The OG Laura Mercier translucent loose powder was my holy grail for years. As I’ve gotten older, I’m more combo! My t-zone is still oily, but my cheeks and perimeter of my face are more normal. The LM powder started looking too dry on that area. So about 2-3 years ago, I switched to the LM talc free blurring translucent loose powder. It’s not as full strength, and I was happy, but even that had started looking a little too powdery on my cheeks lately. I’ve loved every Prada cosmetic I’ve tried, so I decided to give the powder a try. I also liked that it’s refillable and the refill is significantly less expensive than the full compact. IT WAS LOVE AT FIRST APPLICATION. It’s so finely milled that it looks like nothing on my skin. It’s not powdery looking at all even on my cheeks/perimeter. So much so, that I worried it wouldn’t hold up in my t-zone…but it does!! I adore it. One caveat, it does have a scent, but I love the scent. I was afraid that it might make me break out (I’m totally acne prone and my skin is sensitive so I was ready to be disappointed, but it’s not made me break out!) I still use the Pat McGrath under my eyes, so I don’t know what it looks like there, but it gets a hearty endorsement from me as a face powder. I generally pat it on my t-zone with a powder puff (that makes all powders hold up better for me in my t-zone, then use a powder brush all over my face. 💕💕💕
Oh and it’s very blurring, too!
@@LisaF_ Thank you! A lot of what you describe makes so much sense for my skin as well. I notice that my cheeks look too dry if I pat powder all over my face with my RT sponge...but my T zone actually holds up better. Well....now I have to try this powder! Brb, going to shop at Prada (like I needed much convincing LOL,I love their makeup so much).
@@LisaF_ Ok nevermind....apparently it is not released here yet because I can't find it on the Dutch Prada website LOL. Of course as usual we get everything last....Dior contour, new Chanel blushes. Nothing yet *sigh*.
Dear Mariam, will there be a concluding 'my makeup collection' part three?
And YES, I do wanna see all of your motherships again! 😆 That would be the most delicious part ✨️
HAHA oh honey, not concluding....that will be several more parts at least....bronzer, blush, highlighter, lipstick....not to mention the PML shrine. Don't worry plenty coming! I just need to have more time to film which will be tricky in the next month. I have a lot of work trips.
@@mariam.a. yeeyh! Looking forward to it!
Stunning look, love how the red pops with a beautiful semi-smoky eye. I keep trying with my 3 Lisa palettes and I just can’t stand the formula. It’s like the Cle de Peau, almost like I have to dig to get any color payoff at all, regardless if I use natural or synthetic brushes or even the sponge applicators. Frustrating, because I love the color stories. Glad these kinds of formulas work for you, however!! 😊 Just received the new ND warm palette and it is sooooo dreamy. So pigmented. So…warm. 😅 Have always been a cool-toned ladyperson, but am leaning into my warm era, as with my pale skin, warm and/or rosy tones make me look far less dead! 💀 😂 I’m still holding out hope for the next Mothership, fool that I may be, but this ND palette will tide me over nicely in the meantime. Seriously stunning on the eye, in true ND style. I also wanted to thank you for your chatty GRWMs as I have learned so much about makeup and its application. Can I also just say that I adore your monologues? So entertaining and insightful. But I have to say my favorite is when you throw in an expletive every now and again and say things like “browses” and “sparkle moment”. Hashtag relatable content. 😅❤
Yikes, that’s a wall of text! 😮 Thanks for coming to my Ted Talk, apparently! 😅
I loved your TED talk!!! Hmmm I get what you mean...so I assume you are more of a instant colour payoff gal, these are more buildable formulas so maybe just not for you. Oh you better believe I am clutching my pearls for the next Mothership. 🤣 I am glad to hear ND is giving you joy and you are enjoying the palette so much. That;s true makeup bliss! THANK YOU!!💖
As for the new ND palette. It’s a pass. I don’t know what it is about ND palettes. I buy them and then rarely reach for them. I have no idea why.
To be honest I use mine less too lately...same thing no idea why. The only one that I still use on the regular is the Glam Face&Eye.
Love this look. This quint reminds me a little of the PML sunset romance. I bought the bronze absolu after your recommendation and I agree the formula of the mattes is really fantastic. The shimmers were good. I find I just like it when I first apply but I love it after a couple of hours on the eye. It seems to get better over time and wears in a bit (and now that you mention it LE eyeshadows do the same). When I think about it, that is quite something as most eyeshadows look great when you first apply them, then quickly wear away over a short amount of time. Thanks Mariam.
Yes it reminded me of Sunset Romance too, instantly! They do share a similar vein. You are right some eyeshadows really do wear so much better after a few hours.
The green Prada powder is a must have for me ❤
Did you get it??? How is it??? What do you like about it??
I absolutely adore it. You might too Mariam. It sets my oily areas so well while being great for the under-eyes. I like it more than CT. It also provides a slight neutralisation that I didn’t know I needed 😂 (The ND powder foundation in N1 does that for me too:) Looks like nothing on the skin while doing the most. It is probably my favourite powder now. Hope you try it :)
@@stateofhead5262 I wanted to buy it a few days ago but it is not yet released in Europe it seems.
@@mariam.a.Excited for your thoughts on it. I have a sneaky feeling it does more for those of us who still have some oiliness. The Prada eyeshadow palette #2 Profusion does not get enough love either. Somehow swatches don’t do the nuances justice. Especially that mustard. Don’t know how you don’t have it! You would be the person on the internets that would do it the eye looks it deserves!The parasocial relationship is so real 😂
Love the range of depths in the palette. I just saw a review on the new ND need a warm palette and there seem to be many mid tones. Loving the red lip with the earrings!
The problem with her monochromatic midis lately is a lot of the shades look too similar.
🎉🎉
.ive had an estee lauder palette (i thinknits called violet underground) thats in a baked gelee formula. I hit pan on all shades and it was still going strong so i passed it onto my mom ans i think most shades will compliment her colours AND her beautiful aging skin ❤ so elegant!
Estee Lauder is so not a brand I think about past DW 😂. I got my mom a lipstick from them last year though and I think she really likes it. They had this awesome collab collection with VB a few years ago right?
Mariam, maybe you’ll laugh at me, but I strongly suggest you to try the Huda Beauty Rose Quartz palette. I bought it because I love rosy colours and I was stunned by the quality of the formulas it features. It’s an incredible palette, maybe it’s not interesting to you but I was so surprised by it that I had to tell you.
I will be honest I have tried Huda multiple times over the years and struck out each time so I can kind of made my peace that it’s not my brand. Their grunge palette from last year though ooonnfff made my hands itchy to buy…had to remind myself multiple times that I don’t have luck with Huda. Super happy to hear that you’re enjoying Rose Quartz so much!! 💖
@@mariam.a. Oh I'm sorry. Rose Quartz is the only palette I have from the brand, so... who knows, maybe I was lucky enough to choose the only one that's good for me, ahaha
@@virusbebola Go with it! hehe
Йейй, две видеа! Изглеждаш ослепително с това жълто, Снежанка 😊💛 Гледах видеото вчера и си спомням части от него, но нямах време за коментар. Помня, че исках да ти кажа като боядисваш, че е важно да слагаш грунд, това доста помага за да не ти се отлепя боята. Сигурно знаеш, но ние с мъжа ми разбрахме наскоро след едно пребоядисване 😅 Също исках да те питам за морето, дали водата е чиста, понеже ние вече 3 та година не ходим тук, а резорт на Гърция, понеже всеки път се натравяме от нещо(вода, ядене, море), но сме били в Южната част, на Златни не съм стъпвала от дете. Поздрави! ✨🎀✨
Грунд шмунд, ти ме бъркаш с някой който има идея какво прави 😂. Аз мажа 💪. И ние нищо не знаем. Баща ми и тъста ми помагат с такива инициативи. Аз вече повече от 10г не съм ходила надолу на юг. В Созопол бях 2017/18 всъщност, но по на юг отдавна не.Беше супер, само дето 90% от времето флагът беше червен. Ние сме доволни от Златните, тази година морето беше екстра…тепсия и повечето дни чисто. И на Албена е хубаво. Стомашните вируси са навсякъде по морето през сезона. Няма отърване. Майка ми тази година я хвана последния ден. Въпрос на късмет. Вие къде ходите на юг??
@@mariam.a. последно бяхме на Свети Влас на Гранд Хотел нещо си, само дето името му е гранд… изобщо не сме доволни. Преди това бяхме пак там на един хотел Парадайз Бийч, но беше по време на короната и нямаше жив човек, стаята гледаше към морето и като се будех го виждах. Разкошно беше, главно защото нямаше хора, но сега не знам как е, но съдейки по гугъл ревютата - зле :/
Издирването на перфектния тон на цвят е голямо мъчение… Аз си мечтая за едно кафяво което да е същото като един суичър, който имам, но още не съм намерила 😀 Цветът е чудесен иначе, поздравии! ❤
От друга страна ти дава възможност с трепет да мечтаеш за желания цвят и да го търсиш. 😂 Някой ден ще го намериш, но дотогава enjoy the journey.
@@mariam.a. абсолютно, за щастие сега имам нова обсесия. Сенките, които уж са глитер, но имат под-тон и като ги нанесеш с пръст имат все едно един матов цвят отдолу и глитер отгоре. В конкретност говоря за на Анастасия Беверли Хилс, Noveau палитрата цвета Peacock. Обожавам такова петролено, а пък отдолу остава нещо като червеникаво burgundy 🥰 Новата ми обсесия са точно тези ей такива цветове 🦕
I’m looking for lighter browns in baked gelée - I have Guerlain Majestic Rose, but it’s more of a tan than a lighter brown (I also have the Dior quint i. coral flame). Does anyone have any suggestions?
(I have Silky Cheatnut too, and I like applying as much as possible, I rarely apply just a light layer of colour makeup 😂)
Welcome back your videos were missed here. The vacation sounded lovely. I ordered Dior beige matzah and rose tulle should here tomorrow.
Aaahhh so exciting!! Let me know how you like them!!
Thanks for mentioning me! That Silky finish is so elegant! It’s my favorite among the Sisley finishes. It makes your lids so smooth! I don’t own this specific color, but I put it in my wishlist. With a good sale I will consider it! ❤
You are my muse! 🥰 Which shade is your favorite??
Good morning! I love today's look! So simple but elegant and put together. I really live the Sisley eyeshadows for a one and done moment. I own Smokey Topaz, Silky Chestnut and Mat Taupe. And this lipliner though 🥰 On me they last forever, as well as the Kevin Aucoin ones. Nothing left on the lips but the liner. Like blushes from PMG. Can't wait for the next video 😊
Aahhh so you already have plenty of experience with this formula. Indeed great for one and done. I will have to try the lip liner again for a longer day. I usually don’t work full days on Monday so it wasn’t a totally fair comparison but it lasted well for the time I wore it.
@@mariam.a. Normally a lipstick doesn't last long on me, the liner longer. The Dior and Aucoin ones last on me forever.everuthings gone but the liner stays put 😂
Claudia’s influence has had me looking at these Sisley shadows, too!! Matte Cocoa, Sparkling Topaz, and Silky Chestnut are the 3 I’ve been eying so your shopping adventure worked out perfectly for me! Silky Chestnut is absolutely GORGEOUS on you! I want to get to a makeup counter soon to look at these Sisley shades to swatch them. I want to be prepared to pounce when sales come up!
Haha I am imagining you pouncing like a cat when the moment comes 😂🙈. I am curious which shade you will pick. Let me know when you have swatched them.
That eyeshadow from Sisley looks like a dream ❤❤ I love the colour on you it brings your eyes out🎉
Thank you!! I am really enjoying it so far.💖😘
I have silky chestnut in my cart the matt toupe one . I haven't tried the Sisley shadows yet. I am so into brown eyeshadow now but it's always like looking for the perfect one . Lexi Jong told me they crease bad on her though so I'm alittle concerned about that. I love baked gelee formulas as well . Girl u had me cracking up 😂when u said drilling a hole in the wall is like drilling a hole in your fucken brain 😂 it's just not something that I expected to come out of your mouth.
Hmm I have not had issues with this shade creasing it held up pretty well for more than 12h. I do however always use eyeshadow primer. Haha sometimes things come out of my mouth that make you wonder if I haven’t been possessed by an evil spirit. 😂
Just saying good night from Canada! I’m just sipping wine and watching your video after a long hard day!
How wonderful!! I am so glad you stopped by to say hi 🥰!
I bought one Sisley single from a discount website called Sparkling Topaz. It’s a lighter brown than yours, and a little more glittery, I think. I quite like it! Love your whole look today, but I hope you don’t give up the Mariam Red lip altogether 💜
I swatched that one!! Super pretty but it was just not as unique as Chestnut.
The tease at the end! Excited to see your video tomorrow! Love the all neutral look:))
I have to finish editing but it’s coming!!
I’ve used 3M sticky tape hooks to hang paintings and my framed diplomas as well as a hook in my shower for my washcloth and wet hair brush. They stay forever. I’m impressed that as wet as the shower one gets it’s showing no signs of falling off after several years now.
I will remember this if the nanotape gives up on me. So far I have had two frames come off but they both have a somewhat more narrow frame and I was afraid of that.
Last year I spent a day swatching all the brown eyeshadows in the department stores and I came away buying Sisley silky chestnut. What a stunner it is. It is my one and only Sisley item and I cherish it. Your look today is gorgeous and feels very on current. Thank you.
What convinced you to purchase the Sisley one over the other browns?
Ohh how interesting!! So I chose well. Love that!! Thank you Donna 💖.
I am interested in that shadow but I shudder at the price. I'll eventually breakdown and get it.
I know…you gotta be a special kind of crazy to buy a single eyeshadow for that price. What can I say…curiosity killed the cat… 😂
Hi! Looking forward to this. Must confess, I'll be watching it 2mrw as I'm heading for bed now after a day out at the Technikmuseum in Sinsheim (Germany). Had a wonderful day - planes, trains and automobiles galore. The oldest this, first that, fastest the other. Above all: they have a Concorde so now I've finally been to see it. That plane was such an absolute part of my youth - flying over with its unmistakable and beautiful silhouette on my way home from school, way up high. And at university it came over at 11:05 every day; it was so loud, the lecturer would have to break off and restart when they could be heard again 😂. To keep this comment relevant to this channel (sorry): I wore my Prada soft matte in 157: such a happy pink colour. And of course it stayed put really well. And my lips even manage to dislodge Charlotte's beloved Chanel Double Tenue 😂. Thank you for indulging me. I recommend Sinsheim, should you ever be stuck with Niklas in central Germany. All the best - Anne
Sounds like you had an amazing day Anne! Thank you for the recommendation. I am sure he would absolutely love it. Yes the Prada lipsticks are soooo good!
@@mariam.a. You're very welcome 🤗 I've watched the video now - lovely eyeshadow! I'm finishing off my Nars blush and had to use an eyeshadow brush to get into the corners, so tried it on my eyes. To my great surprise, it looks quite nice - never liked pink on my eyes previously, but I have blue eyes, so it ought to suit me 😄. Now I'll try a bit of brown on top to see if I can dupe the vibe ☺️. Best wishes for a good day at work - Anne
Using a setting powder and then reapplying the cream product is ingenious! I will definitely try that because using a powder, like setting the cream with a like minded powder (which I always end up doing) does change the overall color. Great tip!
I hope it works for you too!!!
😂 love your summer look and your vacation mode of jumping from topic to topic 😂. That’s how you know you’re relaxed and on vacay! Good to see you again 😊
Haha exactly! You can tell I haven’t had the need to form coherent thoughts much in the past 2 weeks. 😂
@@mariam.a. 😂
Finally someone reviewing a shade other then 02 . I was going to get these but I wasn't sure about the shades online the shades look horrible online like orange copper but I think I'm going to get either this one or 05 but i think i like 04 more and the medium highlight. I really like the shade of blush you used . If that was still available I would definitely purchase it.
I do think the whole line leans a little bit on the red undertones so beware of that but I don’t think it’s orange. Ahh yes unfortunately Suqqu doesn’t make this formula anymore but PML Paradise Venus is rather similar and a fantastic quality product too.
I miss Mia!! I loved her makeup and commentary. She's how I found your channel. :)
Ahhh I miss Mia too. 💕 I hope she’s doing ok.
@@mariam.a. I love her art inspired makeup and her concept capsules so much, i havent found anyone doing something like that, i want to say i hope she returns at sone point but then i want to give people the space to do what's best for them... 😢
Mariam, thank you for the Dior concealer recomandation. I hit the jackpot with it! Finally my concealer doesn't crease 🤗
Ohhh my gosh I am so glad to hear it!! A fantastic concealer for sure!!
Sounds like your holiday was lovely! I’d be interested in hearing what you think of the Dior contour. I picked up the RMS bronzer and I imagine it is similar to the Nabla, although it isn’t baked. I really like that it gives a sheer, natural wash of bronze. I haven’t tried painting my house, but the last time I washed my tall windows my shoulder was “frozen” and I had to go to physical therapy. I learned a lesson that day 🤔😊
Wait the RMS bronzers and blushes are baked…at least the blush I had from that line for sure was. I will get a shade of the Dior contour as soon as I can find it on the retailers here with some €€ off because I am cheap like that 😂. My neck still hurts from painting the ceiling…not quite as bad to require outside intervention but pffff not cool. The final result makes me happy though. No more washing of tall windows for you!! 🙈
I’m pleasantly surprised by the formula, and of course now have my eyes on the blushes! I agree about finding things marked down!
Yes you’re back 🎉🎉🎉❤

Love your rambles, love your lewks! Welcome back, you’ve inspired me to get back to painting. 😂 Glad you enjoyed your holidays, and on the topic of new releases, I have to say the Dior foundation stick and contour stick are chef’s kiss. Truly. Flawless. You’re welcome. 😂 Again, welcome back!! ❤
Haha the foundation stick I will not get because I had the one from HG and I didn’t enjoy the experience of applying a stick formula. The contour will be mine though!! Haha what are you gonna paint!!??
@@mariam.a. Haha, fair enough!!! I’ve never used one before and it’s been a learning curve-hands, brush (which kind?), sponge? Love the finish, even though I need to add back more “dew” at the end. 😅 The contour is better than the Westman, and is on par with the Victoria Beckham (just larger), looking forward to your review! As for what I’m going to paint, haha, joke’s on me, I didn’t paint after all! 😂 I need to strip the wallpaper first in our small bathroom, and while I love painting, I loathe stripping wallpaper. And in the summer? Hard pass. Will have to wait until it cools off a bit until I fire up ye olde steamer (ugh). I already bought two candles to burn in there, so yours is a cautionary tale re: the soot. I am a candle freak, so will keep an eye out and if I need to paint again…I will. I love candles that much. 😍
@@MaryintheCLE Exactly...it just throws me off and at least the HG one behaved super inconsistently on me. One day perfect the day after a hot oily mess. Haha oh no, I get it. Can you not paint over the wallpaper?
@@mariam.a. Unfortunately, this house is from 1960, so there are multiple layers of wallpaper and there is some water damage, so strip it I must. 😫 Ah well, needs must, and then I get to paint! I also really enjoy limewashing our brick interiors and am only about 25% done (like whitewashing, but with slaked lime from Italy that “breathes” with the brick/stone surfaces and is impervious to mold and rot, while also being water-resistant). That’s been a multi-year project…someday it’ll be finished. *dare to dream* 😂
@@MaryintheCLE Limewashing!!! Never heard of that. Good luck on your multi year project, eventually it will be done and you will be so happy with the result.
Welcome back! I am also looking at the Dior contour sticks and Chanel blushes 😂
💖 😘. I can’t wait to try them!!
