Wave good morning all
How good is the color lush Plum ? I never bought anything in that color. Is it as it shows in pic [victoriassecret.com]s on vs site or varies? Can't really rely on vs pics Laugh
There are few items I am finding that is left in only lush plum color, it makes me think the color is not good laugh out loud
i ordered a tulip skirt [victoriassecret.com] in lush plum, and in person it looks just like the color of the puff jacket you linked. (it looks a little brighter than the photo for the tulip skirt, imo) more of a deep fuschia than a plum to me, and a little bright but still a pretty color!

do you gals use primer when you use bb cream? which one is applied first?
(i tend not to use primer when i apply bb cream, but i'm not sure that's the right way.)

eta: i think i bought a primer for before applying bb cream but i haven't gotten to that yet.

The girl that does my facials at the dr's office says to apply the product first that has the most benefits or that has the benefit you want the most. She says they're more effective that way. Idk.

That's why she says serums go first.

i don't use primer before bb cream, but i can see how it could help with some that are harder to spread. the primer should be applied first if you use it.
i will sometimes use sunscreen beneath bb cream. i guess as a rule of thumb, treat bb cream as a foundation - it should go last. (except powder if you want to set with powder)

I thought they were ugly when I first saw, but I think I'm just a collector and I want them even though I think they're not cute lol. Collecting tokidoki figurines too hee hee.

The only 2 I've used regularly (like, not just samples) are the Skin79 pink and new orange labels. With the pink label I don't have to use a primer because it blended easily and felt moisturizing, but the orange one is more difficult to spread so I have been wearing a primer underneath it. It's not like we all don't have a bunch of primers Teehee so you can experiment and see what works best

makeup is so confusing....
so bb cream is supposed to have healing properties... which is probably reduced if there's primer between your skin and the bb cream.
