What are some of your favorite things from sephora, ulta, MAC? Today is my birthday and with all the gift cards and money I got...I shall treat myself after spending loads on christmas gifts. lol.

Here's a little background information - I have normal to oily skin. VERY yellow undertone, I have olive skin. I like matte lipsticks and warm colors. I need new skincare FOR SURE. does anyone know foundations brands that cater to super yellow skin?

Awwww Happy Birthday RT!! Bobbi Brown is primarily yellow based and is what I'm constantly in my stash regardless as I have a yellow undertone as well. I also had luck with Laura Mercier as well.

In regards to skincare what are you needing? I currently picked up a new goodies recently as well for my oily skin. I grabbed a Korean skin essence from May Coop from Sephora that I want to rotate with my SK-II skin essence.

I love my kat Von d monarch palette, it's super warm tones and the shadows are so buttery! the cover fx drops are also great, I think it's 36 that matches me perfectly and I have hardcore yellow undertones.

Yay happy birthday!:) I hope you've had a good one.
My favorite matte lipsticks would be from Kat Von D, Stila, I enjoy Mac matte lipsticks quite a bit. Colourpop lippie stix are fun and cheap and pretty good quality:)
Also, they're not exactly matte but Nars audacious lipsticks are pretty awesome.

HBD! Nars has also good yellow based foundations :)

For matte lipsticks look for KVD liquid lipsticks! Lolita II is a lovely color

Thanks beautiful ladies. I'll look into all of your suggestion.

Shelley, I'm looking for just a basic cleanser (oily skin) and I really need something that will rid my face of pesky scars :( I was guilty of picking at any and every blemish I had and alas the aftermath is worse than the initial blemish.

Leila, thank you :) I love KVD and have yet to try her line.

Thanks Valerie!

Taylor, thanks girl!! I really need to hop on the ColourPop bandwagon. I've heard NOTHING but good things.

Jackie, thank you beauty :) if you say something is the best, it must be...I enjoyed my beloved powder foundation from MAC, I think it is time I try a liquid. I liked the DVT lipstick, maybe I'll give it a go :) thanks for all of those suggestions!

Thanks Erin and Tina :)

I'll look into nars!! is the sheer matte still on the market? I need ti dabble into the liquid lipstick craze...Lolita is gorgeous. Havw you tried the Jefree Star ones?

Ekk I'm so excited to haul for myself lol. I haven't treated myself in forever

R.T the jefree star liquid lipsticks are awesome I have unicorn blood and posh spice. I think unicorn blood would look so good on you. I also love stillas patina. I have also been wanting to try out colourpop if you buy anything from them I would love to know what you think of them.

Bobbi Brown foundation is yellow as all get out. I've never got a good color match there but my skin is super cool toned. Shelley and many others with GORGEOUS skin on here seem to like their foundations though so I bet it'd be a good place to stop and get a few samples.

Also definitely wait a week or two bc sales will be epic after Christmas. That's when I stock up for the year:)

Also for matte lippies, I jumped on the colourpop bandwagon and I'm pretty stoked that I did! Sign up for thier emails and get $5 off your first purchase which means one free lippie stick or liner pretty much!

MAC has foundations for quite yellow toned skin. Mine is quite yellow-olive and they match better than most
And if you're very yellow it doesn't necessarily mean you're olive.
I'd try the Studio Fix Powder and get matched. The NC shades are yellow-beige (still quite yellow though),

C shades(C3,C4,C5 etc) are more yellow to golden compared to NC.

C shades with double digits(C30, C35 etc) are even more yellow with a greenish (olive) tone

Some of their foundations are more yellow than others within their brand/lines.
The Studio Fix Fluid foundations are quite yellow.
Though keep in mind shade NC30 and NC40 are more yellow/olive, NC37 has a tad less yellow compared to the others, the rest are quite yellow to golden.
They also added in C shades with the liquid which are supposedly more yellow but I'd try and get matched.
Those two are good for oily skin.
Their Full Coverage Cream foundation is quite yellow as well if you're able to go to a MAC store and not just a counter their other foundations tend to lean more golden/orange IMO aside from a few that aren't the best for oily skin though

Bobbi Brown does have foundations for yellow toned skin as well.

As far as lipsticks, if you want a flesh toned nude, Peachstock is good. It's a peachy nude and looks nice.
If you want a more natural type of color Kinda Sexy is my fave. It's a peachy/pink color and doesn't have the mauve tone that their other pinky nudes have which end up contrasting with the yellow in my skin and making my lips look more mauve than pink.
