It's because of her that I now yearn for a blush that no longer exists. I've looked for dupes and reviews, from the familiar lands of Temptalia to the far reaches of early 2010s beauty blogs & TH-cam. But I always give up the chase (temporarily, as the search is never ending) because I can hear in my heart of hearts Samantha Ravndahl crying, "IT'S NOT THE SAME." It's not her warm soul.
i feel like there must be a painting brush from an art supplies store that would be similar to that concealer brush !! but personally i will forever mourn the loss of the whipped foundation from revlon and the blotted bullet lipsticks from colour pop. i’ve heard at least for lipstick the burts bees matte sticks are similar but have never found a comparable soft matte cream foundation 😫
I MUST KNOW THIS MAKEUP LOOK. WHAT IS ON YOUR BEAUTIFUL FACE. You look like you just came out from a fairy tale! With the hair, the outfit, the soft color story and effortlessly blended makeup! I MUST know 😍😍😍
My alternative to Maestro Glow is the Glossier Perfecting Skin Tint. In fact, I love mixing it with Luminous Silk. PST provides glossiness and LS provides coverage. I came up with this combination trying to achieve a better shade and they are a match made in heaven!
OOH thanks for sharing this! I'm also a fan of the Maestro Glow 6.25 + Luminous Silk in 6 combo and the closest alternative I've found is to mix a bit of Charlotte Tilbury 6 with Luminous SIlk in 6. It achieves a seamless look but its not an exact dupe for sure. Maybe I could try this combination!
Hi Karima! Just wanted to pop in and say that your time will come. I'm not sure if TH-cam is much of a priority for you, but I see how much time and effort goes into editing and filming them and I love you for it! I know your views have been down, but TH-camrs like yourself are on the rise and I know you will not be left behind! By TH-camrs like yourself I mean people who put themselves out there to talk about what they love passionately and informatively, without a fabricated personality that's 10 times louder than they are in real life. I appreciate your knowledge, style, individuality, personality and just your general presence on this platform soooo much and I know you'll get the credit and appreciation you deserve soon enough, even if that's not important to you.
NYC used to make this loose setting powder only available at Walmart, at least, that’s the only place I found it. Sadly gone, no idea what happened to the brand. It was like a $4 holy grail. I use a variety of other powders if I’m even setting these days. Anyway, hope you’re well Karima! ❤️
Luckily, the disco'd products you mentioned that appeal to me... are in my possession. Who are we kidding? I will never finish them. I can love them until they get old and decluttered. 🥰
I've been looking for this Chanel brush for YEARS. Found a Hakuhodo one that's quite lovely. It doesn't have number on it, but it's a teeny-tiny pencil brush that is really lovely
Revlon Lip Butter in Pink Truffle and the Colourpop Blotted Lip (not Ultra) in Drip. I’ve found other lipsticks to fill the role but nothing that has duped them yet. I have heard that the Loreal Color Riche Shine give the same vibe as Revlon, and that the Blotted Lip was a dupe for Generation G lipsticks anyway but have tried neither!
My favorite colourpop product is their super shock blush in overdramatic. It actually reminds me of the too faced blush you mentioned because you can also apply it with a brush or your fingers.
The Sonia G Pencil One looks very similar to the Chanel #24. It has a nice flexible point while being exceptionally soft for a pencil brush. In addition the Jenny Patinkin pin point liner brush (natural hair version) has a finer point that is soft and flexible as well.
*Hi Karima, hopefully you see this because I have a concealer for you that you might be very interested in. In fact, I have 2. Possibly, one may well replace your Charlotte Tilbury HG. First, the Becca Light Shifting Brightening Concealer. Now, this isn't a full coverage by far but it's a beautiful formula and it is a more glowy product. The other one is the new Joah Truly Yours Dark Circle concealer. Trust me when I say that this is such an easy, creamy, lightweight product and you don't have to have dark circles to use it. I don't and I love how gorgeous it is. It might be a little difficult to get but I'd bet the brand would just send it to you if you asked to try it.*
Grrr, your list hit a sad nerve! I never did manage to get that Chanel brush! I’ve been looking for years for it! How I wish someone would come out with that exact shape (I’ve seen the bristles in a similar Hakuhodo brush and a discontinued Trish McEvoy brush) but not the bristles plus that wonderful ferrule! It’s like a tiny Charlotte Tilbury smudged brush. Deepest sigh! And I heartily agree about the Retoucher!! The day I saw your video, 2 #3s and 2 #2s came in the mail, so at least I have a few before it’s really goodnight forever. Yup, I agree with you so much I ordered them a few days ago, myself! Lol thanks for identifying that replacement! Maybe someday I can track down a #24 brush, though. You’re lucky to have it!!!
Nyx gotcha covered concealer in alabaster killed me when it was discontinued! I can’t find a replacement! It also really broke my heart when Bite beauty discontinued the liquified lipsticks! I’ve heard that the nudestix lip plush paints are sort of similar, but less moisturizing. I haven’t tried them yet, but I plan to soon.
My signature scent is discontinued! It’s the YSL Parisienne L’Essentiel. I was down to my last bottle when I found Armani Sí Intense through months of researching and bought it as a sample from some sampling website, but was having such a hard time finding a full size and eventually just accepted that it was discontinued too. Luckily I found a bottle of the YSL from some French website and I immediately bought a bottle. But if this one runs out I have no idea where else to go...
Great idea for a video! Let us (me) know if you find a replacement for Rouge Bunny Rouge’s Gracilis blush. I’m so sad they discontinued that and you’re the one who introduced me to it!
I am mourning the loss of Benefit's Sun Beam and AmorePacific's MoistureBound Tinted Treatment Moisturizer (tube, not cushion packaging). Sun Beam was my first highlighter purchase and was such a foolproof product. It completely changed the way I did my makeup. The MoistureBound Tinted Treatment Moisturizer just made my skin look so healthy. Apparently it's the same formula as the cushion, but I've yet to try it. I just loved having it in a tube so much. It lasted forever and when I finally went to repurchase, it was being discontinued. Stores would still have testers out but couldn't sell me the product. It was very emotional for me, lol.
Karima!!!! The Bobbi Brown Ultra Precise Eye Liner Brush is a fantastic dupe for the Chanel brush!!! Perfect scribble. Tapers to a fine point. God Bless Bobbi
I love the way you describe the chanel pinpoint concealing brush because I feel thats exactly what I need in a brush like that, even years ago when you mentioned it I loved the description ☺️✨
Chanel Rouge Allure lipstick in Pulsion was the best lipstick ever. The very first lipstick I ever completely used up. I was digging it out with a lip brush at the end. No other make up has been or ever will ever be as great. 😞
COLOURPOP SUPERSHOCK SHADOW IN RITZ, it looks wet and I live for it, also if they still make it another super shock named 3/Three that’s quite deep cool brown with silver reflects. I really enjoy the jelly much shadows in Book-kay and Big Ego. And the Pretty Fresh concealer, tinted moisturiser and foundation. For me is less about them discontinuing my favourite products and more me just arriving late; I wanted Subculture, it got discontinued, I wanted one of the Too Faced chocolate palettes (back then when I wasn’t allergic to chocolate) it got discontinued, I wanted this Chanel quad with very beautiful reddish neutral autumn shades they releases a few years back, go there too late, wanted to try the Urban Decay lipsticks, they reformulated and put cocoa butter in them, skipped out on the ABH Master palette by Mario when it first released, was discontinued when I finally went to bite the bullet. STOOOOOP
Colourpop favorites: Super Shock Highlighters, Single Shadows (the quality varies in their palettes), lip liners, pencil eyeliner (specifically Mr.Bing) and their Ultra Satin lips!
Always love to watch you Karima, thank you for not just making a products i love but are discontinued and just stop there with no recommended replacements. That would drive me up the wall! I hope some kind people can share some recommendations for other products to replace the ones you couldn't find a replacement for
Thank u for the Burberry Lip Velvet recommendation - I bought one last week and you’re right, the formula is EPIC! I purchased dark rosewood and it is the most beautiful, mostly matte, very soft, long-wearing lippie. ✨💕✨
Thank you so much for a wonderful video Karima ❤️ I love the Armani Lasting Silk and my feelings are very much similar to yours, I somehow prefer it over Luminous. So just like yourself, I was heartbroken! But I've learnt Armani has not discontinued Lasting Silk in all countries! Oh heaven!
I remember when they reformulated the YSL Touche Éclat original foundation. They changed the color and the formula and I was devastated! It was not my first foundation but my first foundation that I really felt was "for me". The Colourpop Pretty Fresh foundation is a new fave. I don't have an exact match but I mix it with a very cool toned bb cream and it lasts all day!
Heart broken 💔💔over Makeup Forever N09 Copper Pink lipstick, I did a deep cleaning of my makeup collection and found two old sample sizes that I’d gotten from Sephora as the beauty buys but they were no longer good, the texture was dryer and they had a smell. Still haven’t been able to find a lipstick comparable to it, any suggestions would be great.
Please do a Colourpop haul! I love their their lux lipsticks, lippie pencils. I would love you to try their pretty fresh foundation, super shock shadows/blushes/highlighter, and just a tint crayons 😊
colourpop recommendations: -the blush stix in "roosevelt" gives you that rosy brown sunburned flush without the actual sunburn. the description says its matte, but I’d say its a satin. it’s not sticky on the face, which I really appreciate. You can do a little tap tap and it’s amazing how easily it blends out. -the blush brush is super soft, washes well and is a great multitasker (blush, bronze, face powder, tinted moisturizer, etc.) -the super shock shadow in "ritz" is a great shimmery top coat with a beige base -the small fluff brush is a dupe for the super popular real techniques setting brush and is the perfect size for concealing smaller sections of the face when you’re in a rush and don’t have time for the whole base routine. I would say it's ever so slightly more dense than the RT setting brush, but that works in your favor if you want to get a fuller coverage application of any cream product.
OMG Karima ... I didn't know about the Charlotte Tilbury Retoucher ,,, my heart is completely broken :( My trust in you is so strong that I'm going to give the Armani a go. Thank you for the heads up xx
But Karima, the Armani cushion foundation is in the last chance to buy section (in the UK at least) 😢😭I bought backups but I need more Edit: The Wayne Goss 05 Precision detail brush is quite good for spot concealing!
Colourpop Jelly Much eye shadows! I live for them! I love that liquid to powder formula and their staying power is amazing. Colourpop has very few products that I don't love. They are slaying!
Dior Mono Fusion in Meteorite. And no unfortunately, no replacement yet. They made the best micro glittery eyeshadow toppers. And nobody seems to talk about it but Dior Nude (Not nude air, not nude skin, just Nude). Both the concealer and foundation. The foundation was like GA Luminous Silk but humidity proof, it was the most beautiful skin like finish but it last all day here in Florida. The concealer was amazing too but I end up preferring First Aid Beauty's Bendy Avocado.
Oh what a topic, I can soooo relate... my favorite Chanel always does it- discontinues the great stuff. They just recently switched to all synthetic brushes pulling some of the best ones 😢 (double sided natural brushes, i.e.) My favorite gel eyeliner in a pot is a double wear by Estée. I put an eye mask during a flight & it didn’t move, my makeup stayed intact 👏🏻👏🏻 I also hear Inglot gel eyeliners are great but the dry out quickly A moussy lipstick in a tube- Nars lip glide, it’s good😉 Have a great & not heart broken day, Karima!🥰
20 seconds in... IS IT ARMANI? IT'S ARMANI ISN'T IT I was SOOOOO happy to see Estee Lauder brought back Double Wear Light but do not regret buying the last 3 on Neiman's site when they were discontinued 🤣
Becca beach tints and Milani's Luminoso (reformulated). Not sure if Rouge Bunny Rouge's Delicata blush is discontinued or currently sold out, but it's the only blush I've repurchased multiple times despite it being so fragile.
The Fairydrops BB Cream! I loved it because it offered pretty decent coverage for a bb cream, wasn't dewy like other bb creams, and had no white, gray, or pink cast. It also lasted all day and is pretty much waterproof. Loved it during my uni days! I haven't ever found anything close to be honest; I just moved on to the Bourjois Healthy Mix Serum foundation.
I just ordered a Flower Beauty highlighter trio palette from Wal-Mart, online. They are marked down and on clearance. I have been hearing about how great it is for so long, it seems to be a holy grail for a few TH-camrs I watch. I don't want to not be able to find one in the future just because I never bothered to spend the 10 or 12 dollars when they were still in production. I think I've heard that that brand may be dissolving our paring down or something like that.
@@karimamckimmie I could be wrong. I'd have to look into it more. But I would say, if there's anything you want from that brand, maybe grab it sooner rather than later!
My one holy grail discontinued product is the Neutrogena Healthy Glow presses powder! Funnily enough I’m wearing it in my profile picture 🤣 I used to wear this product by itself under my eye instead of concealer like 10 years ago at least, not so cute now but the powder itself was beautiful!!! Finely milled and a perfect neutral tone. I haven’t found a replacement I like as much as that😭✨
My favorite discontinued product is the very first bronze eyeshadow in a tube from Estee Lauder. I used to have them in the 90's and also a brick red lipstick from EL.
I relate to this video on so many levels! Whenever I really love something the brand discontinues it! 💔 Regarding Bite Beauty... Very unhappy with them! Not only did they discontinue the liquified Amuse Bouche, they also did away with my favorite lipsticks! And the worst thing of all.... discontinuing the Agave Lip Mask! For me this was a must-have everyday item! I understand the value of vegan items but discontinuing these 5star rated products was taking it to the extreme!!! Btw, still searching for a replacement for the lipmask.
I bought the Estée Lauder double wear light foundation on Sharon Farrell’s recommendation and it became my absolute holy grail! Then about 2 years ago they “reformulated” it and it’s not the same at all! 😭😭😭 I am still grieving
Two products: Estee Lauder BB cream and Prescriptives lip gloss in Stellar. As far as the BB cream, I have the new EL Futurist Hydra Rescue Moisturizing Makeup w/SPF 45. I have all sorts of lip glosses from Estee Lauder, Urban Decay, Chanel, Stila but nothing has come close to that Prescriptives lip gloss. Loved the texture of the gloss as well as the color Stellar, it was the most perfect mauve.
sigma have a pinpoint concealer brush (F68) which is a little narrower than the chanel one, and therefore it’s less pyramidal in shape, but it might be a good option. I use it to add color back to my moles after makeup!
My biggest one is chanel notorious but it doesn't really count because it was limited edition. My main thing was these skin wipes that you used to be able to get at the supermarket. They were alcohol free and had a crap tonne of salicylic acid and were simply just for acne, not makeup removal. They had a slight but very pleasant fragrance. I think they were clean and clear maybe. They were like a better version of stridex. I went tk every supermarket and chemist in town AND the next town over looking for the last lingering stock when i found out they were discontinued. I also live those Burberry lip velvets but burberry is esspensive and i can't afford to own all the shades like i would like. I also loved those amuse bosch ones by bite.
*Well. You need to try the Jcat Beauty Prismetal shadows because they are less money than the Colourpop ones, have that mousse like formula, come in many different shades and are super glittery and reflective on the eyes! Both these and the Colourpop ones are available on Ulta's website.*
As a fellow sparkly topcoat addict, you have to try Colourpop’s Ritz super shock shadow! Also because I spot yet another sparkly topcoat, I need to know what eyeshadows you’re wearing on your eyes 👀 it looks like such a effortless everyday look
Still crushes about Lasting Silk being discontinued. And the Armani cushion compact is not available in the US. Also reformulated, so I guess technically not discontinued is the Guerlain Lingerie de Peau foundation. Burberry Trench eyeshadow. That was my go-to base color for so many of my looks. Got rid of all the redness in my lids that even shadow primer can't get rid of. An of course since I'm stuck in another decade Urban Decay OG Naked and Naked2 palettes.
I just got my wisdom teeth out this morning (I'm 31...thought I was passed this stepping stone...) so getting a notification for your video made me very happy! Even though it's sad when great products get discontinued, I'm excited to check out some of the ones you've replaced them with!
@@karimamckimmie Whew they are all healed! I was announcing to everyone I knew when I was finally able to eat a granola bar...they should have been more impressed than they were lol
I love the Nivea Lip butters (in the little pots) and looks like they’ve been discontinued. I also loved the L’Oréal Magic Blur moisturiser for under my makeup and I’ve never been able to find something that gives the same effect 😭😭😭😭
Im incredibly sad that the hourglass modernist eyeshadow palette got discontinued! I know a lot of people didn't like them as much and hourglass created a similar one, but the modernist palette was like a miracle on my eyes!
LANCOME CUSHION BLUSHES! They are getting discontinued and I've never had a blush blend more seamlessly with my skin and both brighten and illuminate my complexion without a single speck of shimmer 😭 I know there are a lot of cushion blushes on the market, but they are very difficult to buy in Serbia and this one was just ... chef's kiss 😫
My Sephora contour in Tranquil 😪 I miss her everyday. Replaced with the Fenty Contour stick in Amber. Love the formula actually, I know some don’t but it’s perfect for a small contour area, goes well over cream OR powder. As far as Colourpop products, there are a handful you MUST try. The new Pretty Fresh foundation or the Pretty Fresh Tinted moisturizer. Similar formulas IMO but the tinted moisturizer obvi has light coverage, while the foundation has medium. I have them both and love and wear them both. The cream blush stix, LOVELY but the highlighter shades have fine glitter. And the brow boss pencil and tinted brow gel. The pencil is perfect for me, maybe 75% opacity and a stiffer formula but micro pencil delivery. And the gel? A Boy Brow dupe, and a good one.
Literally received a ColourPop order in the mail today :) (And was super impressed because shipping to Australia only took a couple of weeks). My faves: Super Shock highlighter in Flexitarian and the Pretty Fresh Tinted Moisturiser. I also bought a couple of palettes including the In A Trance and can't wait to get it on my eyes lids!
J.One Jelly Pack, specifically the red one. I use it as my daytime moisturizer and I love it so much, it's hydrating without being too heavy, and even though I put spf over it, the tackiness stays, so it works decently to grip my makeup. I found it on Costco's website and bought some backups, though I don't know what I'm gonna do when I run out. 😭 The comments about the Armani cushion being discontinued are really worrying me. I think I might need to stock up soon. 😕
@@karimamckimmie I'm in the US. I usually order from the Selfridges website and right now it's still in stock, so I'm not quite to the point of feeling like I need to panic buy, but I'm still a little concerned. It could also just be an instance of regional stock differences, like you said. Cushions had their moment, but they aren't nearly as popular here as they once were now that the novelty has worn off. So it's probably not worth stocking the product in US stores or on US based websites if there isn't a demand for it.
I can't find L'Oreal Pro Glow in Australian stores so it hasn't necessarily been discontinued but I can't bear the indignity of ordering from overseas and paying shipping! Also, Velvet Beige Lipstick from Maybelline is gone from aussie stores. So. Bloody. Devo.
@karima, have you tried Em Cosmetics (Michelle Phan's beauty brand)? I think her formulas might be your type of aesthetic. From Color drops serum blush , Micro-fluff sculpting brow cream, to True Gloss (which is a very pigmented balm like liquid lipstick that kinda reminds me of Amuse Bouche liquid lips), I would love to hear your take on them!
Dear Karima, I found Armani Lasting Silk UV Foundation (various shades) at Lookfantastic. They even have tracked delivery to Australia (the information on the web site says so). Also, they have it in stock on the official Armani web site (British version). Maybe this will help. I think it depends on the certain country's market, I mean the preferences of the customers. Thank you a lot for your videos. Hugs 🤗
I really really wanted to try the Ambient Primers from Hourglass in the shade Mood Light, I adore their line and Beautypedia was raving about it. Unfortunately, it seems unavailable nowhere, Sephora US probably caries out the remaining stock of the shade Luminous Light but that's about it.
if you listen closely you can hear Sam Ravndahl's wails of anguish all the way from Canada
as soon as i saw this video,i swear i saw Sam's face 🤣
Lol, my first thought.
lmao I was thinking of her the whole time too haha
It's because of her that I now yearn for a blush that no longer exists. I've looked for dupes and reviews, from the familiar lands of Temptalia to the far reaches of early 2010s beauty blogs & TH-cam. But I always give up the chase (temporarily, as the search is never ending) because I can hear in my heart of hearts Samantha Ravndahl crying, "IT'S NOT THE SAME." It's not her warm soul.
Hahhaahhhahahha this comment made me LOL.
Or sometimes even worse.. they “reformulate”
Reformulated usually means new formula irritates my skin
Oh, the horror!
Oh it feels like someone kills me twice
*shudder*
Andrea C the absolute betrayal
karimas got me feeling some type of way about products i havent even made eyecontact with before
yep i feel like i have attachment to these products as well when i haven'nt even touched any of them
😂😂
this video might break my heart.... but i’ll watch it anyway bc karima is a queen 😭❤️
Exactly!!
Me too!!
❤️❤️❤️
My boyfriend would hear your voice and know he can't talk to me until you're finished 😂😂
😂😘
i feel like there must be a painting brush from an art supplies store that would be similar to that concealer brush !! but personally i will forever mourn the loss of the whipped foundation from revlon and the blotted bullet lipsticks from colour pop. i’ve heard at least for lipstick the burts bees matte sticks are similar but have never found a comparable soft matte cream foundation 😫

i feel you’re happier don’t know why, but love it. my most favorite creator hands down. love from spain ♥️

I've been looking for this Chanel brush for YEARS. Found a Hakuhodo one that's quite lovely. It doesn't have number on it, but it's a teeny-tiny pencil brush that is really lovely
KARIMA! This hair!! It’s everything it’s refined it’s fresh it’s sexy and posh! Beautiful 👏🏼 absolutely well done!
Do you know what I love? A new video from THE Karima. 🍾🥳
Sending big hugs! 😘❤️

Thank you so much for a wonderful video Karima ❤️ I love the Armani Lasting Silk and my feelings are very much similar to yours, I somehow prefer it over Luminous. So just like yourself, I was heartbroken! But I've learnt Armani has not discontinued Lasting Silk in all countries! Oh heaven!
Yeah there are like 3 shades available in Aus... Such a strange strategy 🧐
you can try the Smashbox multitasking detail brush instead of chanel brush, it's perfect for spot concealing and any other detailing work!
I love the makeup you have on in this video, especially the eyeshadow! Please would you do a video on this? X
Linked in the description 😉
I remember when they reformulated the YSL Touche Éclat original foundation. They changed the color and the formula and I was devastated! It was not my first foundation but my first foundation that I really felt was "for me". The Colourpop Pretty Fresh foundation is a new fave. I don't have an exact match but I mix it with a very cool toned bb cream and it lasts all day!
Heart broken 💔💔over Makeup Forever N09 Copper Pink lipstick, I did a deep cleaning of my makeup collection and found two old sample sizes that I’d gotten from Sephora as the beauty buys but they were no longer good, the texture was dryer and they had a smell. Still haven’t been able to find a lipstick comparable to it, any suggestions would be great.
PLEASE take a look at the Kaja beauty Heart stamp cushion blush !! It is GORGEOUS and I would love to hear your thoughts ! !!!
Karimma you need to get colourpop super shock shadow in shade ritz!! You have no idea what you are missing on! That shade is made for you!
My favorite supershock is Ritz, such a perfection shiny shade ♥
Please do a Colourpop haul! I love their their lux lipsticks, lippie pencils. I would love you to try their pretty fresh foundation, super shock shadows/blushes/highlighter, and just a tint crayons 😊
Loveeee the Just a Tint lip crayons! ❤️❤️❤️
@@karimamckimmie oh myyyyy! Karima replied!🤩
The hourglass eyeshadows are just perfection ♥
Amazing how an upload from you makes my whole day!
❤️😘❤️😘
colourpop recommendations:
-the blush stix in "roosevelt" gives you that rosy brown sunburned flush without the actual sunburn. the description says its matte, but I’d say its a satin. it’s not sticky on the face, which I really appreciate. You can do a little tap tap and it’s amazing how easily it blends out.
-the blush brush is super soft, washes well and is a great multitasker (blush, bronze, face powder, tinted moisturizer, etc.)
-the super shock shadow in "ritz" is a great shimmery top coat with a beige base
-the small fluff brush is a dupe for the super popular real techniques setting brush and is the perfect size for concealing smaller sections of the face when you’re in a rush and don’t have time for the whole base routine. I would say it's ever so slightly more dense than the RT setting brush, but that works in your favor if you want to get a fuller coverage application of any cream product.
OMG Karima ... I didn't know about the Charlotte Tilbury Retoucher ,,, my heart is completely broken :( My trust in you is so strong that I'm going to give the Armani a go. Thank you for the heads up xx
I'm only 2 mins in.. but good to see the wild, fluffy eyebrows are back! I missed them!
Wow illusion d’ombre! I forgot about those.. used to love them so much.. thanks for the replacement options!
Pure McKimmie. 👌 Brilliant vid. A pleasure to watch.
😘😘
But Karima, the Armani cushion foundation is in the last chance to buy section (in the UK at least) 😢😭I bought backups but I need more
Edit: The Wayne Goss 05 Precision detail brush is quite good for spot concealing!
Colourpop Jelly Much eye shadows! I live for them! I love that liquid to powder formula and their staying power is amazing. Colourpop has very few products that I don't love. They are slaying!
Dior Mono Fusion in Meteorite. And no unfortunately, no replacement yet. They made the best micro glittery eyeshadow toppers. And nobody seems to talk about it but Dior Nude (Not nude air, not nude skin, just Nude). Both the concealer and foundation. The foundation was like GA Luminous Silk but humidity proof, it was the most beautiful skin like finish but it last all day here in Florida. The concealer was amazing too but I end up preferring First Aid Beauty's Bendy Avocado.
Oh what a topic, I can soooo relate... my favorite Chanel always does it- discontinues the great stuff. They just recently switched to all synthetic brushes pulling some of the best ones 😢 (double sided natural brushes, i.e.)
My favorite gel eyeliner in a pot is a double wear by Estée. I put an eye mask during a flight & it didn’t move, my makeup stayed intact 👏🏻👏🏻 I also hear Inglot gel eyeliners are great but the dry out quickly
A moussy lipstick in a tube- Nars lip glide, it’s good😉
Have a great & not heart broken day, Karima!🥰
Chanel loves to discontinue an old fave 💔
20 seconds in... IS IT ARMANI? IT'S ARMANI ISN'T IT
I was SOOOOO happy to see Estee Lauder brought back Double Wear Light but do not regret buying the last 3 on Neiman's site when they were discontinued 🤣
The Stila cushion cheek colours. They were so nice.
Becca beach tints and Milani's Luminoso (reformulated). Not sure if Rouge Bunny Rouge's Delicata blush is discontinued or currently sold out, but it's the only blush I've repurchased multiple times despite it being so fragile.
The beach tint in fig is such a perfect product for my complexian. Iam afraid to use up my backups..
The Fairydrops BB Cream! I loved it because it offered pretty decent coverage for a bb cream, wasn't dewy like other bb creams, and had no white, gray, or pink cast. It also lasted all day and is pretty much waterproof. Loved it during my uni days! I haven't ever found anything close to be honest; I just moved on to the Bourjois Healthy Mix Serum foundation.
One of my favourite discontinued product is the YSL soufflé powder. Ive replaced it with the Ilia soft focus powder which I really love!
Ohhh Soufflé powder sounds tasty 😏
I just love your passion, Karima!
❤️❤️❤️
I just ordered a Flower Beauty highlighter trio palette from Wal-Mart, online. They are marked down and on clearance. I have been hearing about how great it is for so long, it seems to be a holy grail for a few TH-camrs I watch. I don't want to not be able to find one in the future just because I never bothered to spend the 10 or 12 dollars when they were still in production. I think I've heard that that brand may be dissolving our paring down or something like that.
That highlighter palate is sooooo good !
Oh no! I didn’t hear anything about Flower Beauty! I was hoping to test out more of the line
@@karimamckimmie I could be wrong. I'd have to look into it more. But I would say, if there's anything you want from that brand, maybe grab it sooner rather than later!
My one holy grail discontinued product is the Neutrogena Healthy Glow presses powder! Funnily enough I’m wearing it in my profile picture 🤣 I used to wear this product by itself under my eye instead of concealer like 10 years ago at least, not so cute now but the powder itself was beautiful!!! Finely milled and a perfect neutral tone. I haven’t found a replacement I like as much as that😭✨
Clinique's Chocolate Ice lip stick broke my heart as did the regular Armani Maestro foundation
My favorite discontinued product is the very first bronze eyeshadow in a tube from Estee Lauder. I used to have them in the 90's and also a brick red lipstick from EL.
Karima, you can still buy Armani lasting silk foundation in Korea fyi. it's an on going product here😉 always enjoying watching your videos xoxo
I relate to this video on so many levels! Whenever I really love something the brand discontinues it! 💔
Regarding Bite Beauty... Very unhappy with them! Not only did they discontinue the liquified Amuse Bouche, they also did away with my favorite lipsticks! And the worst thing of all.... discontinuing the Agave Lip Mask! For me this was a must-have everyday item! I understand the value of vegan items but discontinuing these 5star rated products was taking it to the extreme!!!
Btw, still searching for a replacement for the lipmask.
I bought the Estée Lauder double wear light foundation on Sharon Farrell’s recommendation and it became my absolute holy grail! Then about 2 years ago they “reformulated” it and it’s not the same at all! 😭😭😭 I am still grieving
Two products: Estee Lauder BB cream and Prescriptives lip gloss in Stellar. As far as the BB cream, I have the new EL Futurist Hydra Rescue Moisturizing Makeup w/SPF 45. I have all sorts of lip glosses from Estee Lauder, Urban Decay, Chanel, Stila but nothing has come close to that Prescriptives lip gloss. Loved the texture of the gloss as well as the color Stellar, it was the most perfect mauve.
sigma have a pinpoint concealer brush (F68) which is a little narrower than the chanel one, and therefore it’s less pyramidal in shape, but it might be a good option. I use it to add color back to my moles after makeup!
Looooved the Maestro and Maestro Glow and yes I haven’t gone back to Armani as they keep changing their formulas....
My biggest one is chanel notorious but it doesn't really count because it was limited edition.
My main thing was these skin wipes that you used to be able to get at the supermarket. They were alcohol free and had a crap tonne of salicylic acid and were simply just for acne, not makeup removal. They had a slight but very pleasant fragrance. I think they were clean and clear maybe. They were like a better version of stridex. I went tk every supermarket and chemist in town AND the next town over looking for the last lingering stock when i found out they were discontinued.
I also live those Burberry lip velvets but burberry is esspensive and i can't afford to own all the shades like i would like. I also loved those amuse bosch ones by bite.
*Well. You need to try the Jcat Beauty Prismetal shadows because they are less money than the Colourpop ones, have that mousse like formula, come in many different shades and are super glittery and reflective on the eyes! Both these and the Colourpop ones are available on Ulta's website.*
When I saw a makeup brush I was like, “I know! The Chanel 24 brush! Why?!” We’re with you Karima 💗
I was sooo nervous for your white shirt this entire video! I bow down to your courage.
Bold move for sure 😂
As a fellow sparkly topcoat addict, you have to try Colourpop’s Ritz super shock shadow! Also because I spot yet another sparkly topcoat, I need to know what eyeshadows you’re wearing on your eyes 👀 it looks like such a effortless everyday look
Sooo many recommendations for Ritz! Will buy ASAP 😘 This makeup is linked in description box xx
Still crushes about Lasting Silk being discontinued. And the Armani cushion compact is not available in the US. Also reformulated, so I guess technically not discontinued is the Guerlain Lingerie de Peau foundation. Burberry Trench eyeshadow. That was my go-to base color for so many of my looks. Got rid of all the redness in my lids that even shadow primer can't get rid of. An of course since I'm stuck in another decade Urban Decay OG Naked and Naked2 palettes.
I just got my wisdom teeth out this morning (I'm 31...thought I was passed this stepping stone...) so getting a notification for your video made me very happy! Even though it's sad when great products get discontinued, I'm excited to check out some of the ones you've replaced them with!
Lots of ♡ need ideas : mashed potatoes, macaroni and cheese, milkshakes, soups, pasta, enchiladas..cake, good luck .
Hope your mouth is on the mend! My face was lopsided for days after wisdom teeth removal 😂
@@karimamckimmie Whew they are all healed! I was announcing to everyone I knew when I was finally able to eat a granola bar...they should have been more impressed than they were lol
I love the Nivea Lip butters (in the little pots) and looks like they’ve been discontinued. I also loved the L’Oréal Magic Blur moisturiser for under my makeup and I’ve never been able to find something that gives the same effect 😭😭😭😭
You have such a likeable personality!
Oh, thank you! 🥰
Im incredibly sad that the hourglass modernist eyeshadow palette got discontinued! I know a lot of people didn't like them as much and hourglass created a similar one, but the modernist palette was like a miracle on my eyes!
for the chanel brush , try the laura mercier smoky eyeliner brush
If you loved Lasting Silk, have you tried Kanebo Sensai foundation? It's divine
Ohh I recall hearing great things about this foundation! Putting it on the Wishlist 😉
Karima may I just say you look BOMB!!!! 🤩🤩🤩
Please try Colourpop supershock shadow in Ritz and compare it to frog.i really can't decide which to buy. 😅
Awesome video❤️. What about the suqqu eyebrow pen in moss?
LANCOME CUSHION BLUSHES! They are getting discontinued and I've never had a blush blend more seamlessly with my skin and both brighten and illuminate my complexion without a single speck of shimmer 😭
I know there are a lot of cushion blushes on the market, but they are very difficult to buy in Serbia and this one was just ... chef's kiss 😫
I feel like there aren’t enough cushion blushes on the market 😭
My Sephora contour in Tranquil 😪 I miss her everyday. Replaced with the Fenty Contour stick in Amber. Love the formula actually, I know some don’t but it’s perfect for a small contour area, goes well over cream OR powder. As far as Colourpop products, there are a handful you MUST try. The new Pretty Fresh foundation or the Pretty Fresh Tinted moisturizer. Similar formulas IMO but the tinted moisturizer obvi has light coverage, while the foundation has medium. I have them both and love and wear them both. The cream blush stix, LOVELY but the highlighter shades have fine glitter. And the brow boss pencil and tinted brow gel. The pencil is perfect for me, maybe 75% opacity and a stiffer formula but micro pencil delivery. And the gel? A Boy Brow dupe, and a good one.
I’m hearing lots of recs for the Pretty Fresh Tinted Moisturiser! 👏🏻
Literally received a ColourPop order in the mail today :) (And was super impressed because shipping to Australia only took a couple of weeks). My faves: Super Shock highlighter in Flexitarian and the Pretty Fresh Tinted Moisturiser. I also bought a couple of palettes including the In A Trance and can't wait to get it on my eyes lids!
Flexitarian is INSANE 👏🏻👏🏻
J.One Jelly Pack, specifically the red one. I use it as my daytime moisturizer and I love it so much, it's hydrating without being too heavy, and even though I put spf over it, the tackiness stays, so it works decently to grip my makeup. I found it on Costco's website and bought some backups, though I don't know what I'm gonna do when I run out. 😭
The comments about the Armani cushion being discontinued are really worrying me. I think I might need to stock up soon. 😕
Are you in US or AU? It seems Armani stocks different products depending on region so I’m not too stressed yet!
@@karimamckimmie I'm in the US. I usually order from the Selfridges website and right now it's still in stock, so I'm not quite to the point of feeling like I need to panic buy, but I'm still a little concerned.
It could also just be an instance of regional stock differences, like you said. Cushions had their moment, but they aren't nearly as popular here as they once were now that the novelty has worn off. So it's probably not worth stocking the product in US stores or on US based websites if there isn't a demand for it.
I can't find L'Oreal Pro Glow in Australian stores so it hasn't necessarily been discontinued but I can't bear the indignity of ordering from overseas and paying shipping! Also, Velvet Beige Lipstick from Maybelline is gone from aussie stores. So. Bloody. Devo.
@karima, have you tried Em Cosmetics (Michelle Phan's beauty brand)? I think her formulas might be your type of aesthetic. From Color drops serum blush , Micro-fluff sculpting brow cream, to True Gloss (which is a very pigmented balm like liquid lipstick that kinda reminds me of Amuse Bouche liquid lips), I would love to hear your take on them!
get colourpop "a little quarky", its supposed to be a dead-on dupe for hourglass ray!
Dear Karima, I found Armani Lasting Silk UV Foundation (various shades) at Lookfantastic. They even have tracked delivery to Australia (the information on the web site says so). Also, they have it in stock on the official Armani web site (British version). Maybe this will help. I think it depends on the certain country's market, I mean the preferences of the customers. Thank you a lot for your videos. Hugs 🤗
I really really wanted to try the Ambient Primers from Hourglass in the shade Mood Light, I adore their line and Beautypedia was raving about it. Unfortunately, it seems unavailable nowhere, Sephora US probably caries out the remaining stock of the shade Luminous Light but that's about it.
Loving your last few videos Karima!
Great video. Please mention if products have a scent. Thanks
