What would you say is ur complexion?
What foundation do you use.
No Ill effects from the kojic soap?
I tried using it myself but I think it was burning my skin.
What's ur favorite acids?
I would say im about Gabby union colored.
I match Mac studio fix Nw48 but i dont use that anymore, made me oily. Now i alternate between Nars all day luminous in Benares and Clinique stay matte liquid in Clove. I used Clinique if it hot, its wonderful at oil control but in drier environments it can make me look too matte and dry. The Nars i just bought a few weeks ago. I love the semi matte finish but it doesnt help wit oil control. Not nearly as bad as Mac but not as good as Clinique.
I have no side effects from kojic acid. I dont leave it on. I wash with it for about 10 seconds then rinse it off i do that twice a day. Its the only acid i use in my regimen. Its the perfect thing for me right now. Doubles as a cleanser and a very very mild acid peel. I used to used lactic acid toners but lactic acid made me oilier. Certain acids may make you oily some help control oiliness. Kojic acid makes me matte and has controlled my very oily skin.

Lots of places have great sales on lipstick today. Mac giving out free stuff, ulta has a ton of sales going on, sephora too.
I don't really wear lipstick but I've been looking for a nice brownish color. Maybe I'll find one today.

If you like matte, my favourite brown is limbo by colourpop.

My last order I bought 3 since it's my everyday lippie, and it's fairly cheap at $6.
