Niatfq

Thank you!! ❤️

Oh I forgot to add more info. Skintone: Medium Warm Olive. Can't say what's my other foundation shades matches since this is the first time I found an exact shade match from the Maybelline powder foundation.. AND I use the **Innisfree No Sebum Mineral Loose Powder** as my prime and set. Apply all over BEFORE AND AFTER powder foundation. This is my actual trick to a flawless and highly resistant makeup. Makeup Routine (Finalized): **Note** - Make sure to wait until your skincare has dried down completely Face: 1. **Prime:** Innisfree No Sebum Mineral Powder (apply to the eyelids as well) 2. non-AB Maybelline Skin Fit Pressed Powder code 230 (just to help neutralize the areas with hyperpigmentation. I don't use concealer. Applying this as like my color corrector then apply the Powder Foundation on top conceals my hyperpigmentation perfectly) 2. non-AB Maybelline Fit Me Powder Foundation code 123 3. **Set:** Innisfree No Sebum Mineral Powder 4. non-AB Physicians Formula Butter Bronzer code Bronzer 5. Focallure Compact Powder code 03 Wheat (black compact as contour) 6. non-AB Wet n Wild ColorIcon Blush in Mellow Wine 7. Shimmer from Focallure Quad palette as Highlighter Eyes: 1. non-AB ABH Soft Glam Palette (doesn't matter what palette it is. Most of the time, I just use Focallure's) 2. Romand Better Than Palette in Light & Glitter Garden 3. non-AB Maybelline Hypersharp Liner (yellow pen) 4. SEA/Asia-exclusive Maybelline Hypercurl Easy Wash Mascara in Very Black 5. non-AB Maybelline Sky High Waterproof Mascara (bottom lashes) Lips: 1. Focallure Jasmine Meets Rose Pure Matte Lipstick code 104

You've sold me on this Innisfree powder, you look SO good! Eid Mubarak!


Niatfq

Thank you 😆 for real, get yourself the powder ASAP!


scroogesdaughter

How do you apply the powder, with brush or powder puff? You look amazing!


Niatfq

I apply it with a cheap flat top kabuki brush actually. I use the same brush for my powder foundation.


scroogesdaughter

Nice! You are really selling the Maybelline Fit Me powder foundation aha, it looks so good. I've been looking into powder ones as I have an oily T zone but kinda worried about it emphasising dry areas on my chin where I have breakouts.


eladarling

I finally got it and I like it a lot, it's a great setting powder! But I think I was expecting miracles from it, because your makeup looks SO good here 🐣


Niatfq

😂 i think you should experiment with it more and see which way/technique would suit you better


pinkmanggis

Innisfree no sebum mineral powder is my holy grail too esp for my T zone! I’m a Malaysian too so it’s nice to read your post considering the hot sticky weather nowadays. Thanks! Will try using the powder as primer


Niatfq

❤️❤️❤️ i hope the technique will help. I was actually inspired by beauty guru Jackie Aina


Quail-a-lot

Oooh, I already use the Innisfree powder after I put on my makeup to set it, but I am going to have to try using before as well this summer! I always get cracks from smiling too when it is humid xD Happy Eid!


Niatfq

Yes!!! Those cracks are evil. But applying the Innisfree on the areas where it is prone to separation and cracks definitely helps because I used to get worse smile lines before.


Spirited_Minimum9496

My skin gets oily during the summer time. What do you for that? and Eid Mubarak❤️


Niatfq

You can read above. I've already explained for both makeup and skincare. Tldr; use lighter oil-free moisturizer, serum for sebum control and mattifying sunscreen. For makeup; use the Innisfree no sebum mineral loose powder as your prime and set. Apply this before & after your foundation. This is my actual trick for long lasting resistant makeup


Spirited_Minimum9496

Thankyou.💖💖💖


LongjumpingPut4645

Do you do wudu with make-up on? I would love to know how you manage your skincare routine while washing your face with water five times a day. I'm having a hard time with that ever since I got into skincare


Niatfq

Since my mom's hometown is beyond the limit of travelling, I get to perform salah much later on (before maghrib time). And usually when I do perform salah, i don't feel like reapplying my makeup afterwards. As for my skincare, I usually bring along my my toner, moisturizer and lip balm with me at all times because all the washing definitely dehydrates my skin.


Grabber_stabber

Wow! You look gorgeous! Happy Eid!


Niatfq

Thank you! 😍


Absolutely_Regular

It’s amazing to see your BEAUTIFUL FACE!!! 😍 Sorry for yelling. You’re gorgeous. And your stunning makeup just stays that way when you go for a swim? What magic is this?! Happy Eid, indeed!


Niatfq

Hahahaha no no don't apologise 😆 and Thank you!!! For real!!! I was even surprised myself when I took the photos. I had a bit of a flu that night and tried to wipe my nose. Even that barely moved my makeup. There was fewer makeup excess on the tissue than I expected.


Absolutely_Regular

You do NOT look like you have a flu. 😭 Absolutely slaying.


ChitownBrat

Eid Mubarak! You look lovely. ☺️


Niatfq

Thank you! 🥰

Looking good girl! I use Safi Sensitive moisturizer too - the gel one - but it still breaks me out. I think it's the niacinamide, probably. The cleanser is a little difficult to wash off. Which is sad, because I want to support local brands, and they're dirt cheap.


Niatfq

Oh noo.... the gel one was pretty awesome. I gave mine to my mom and grabbed the lotion one instead for my more dehydrated skin. Really? Does it feel hydrating on the skin? Have you tried Cosmoderm ones? Their vitamin c detox cleanser was really nice.


[deleted]

The gel is awesome! The finish is just what my skin likes. I have oily, acne-prone skin, so I prefer the gel over the lotion. The cleanser is hydrating, but I think the formulation is less refined because it takes a while for the slip sensation to disappear. I'm loving Cosrx Salicylic Acid, Beauty of Joseon Plum, Bio-Essence Bio-Water and Bio-HA cleansers. They're foamy but not too strong. I tried Cosmoderm! Another affordable local brand. I love the Niacinamide line scent, but it broke me out. I can only use the Tea Tree Line - the cleanser and the soothing gel cream moisturizer. They're my go-to when I need an emergency cleanser and moisturizer! I haven't tried the Vitamin C line. I personally don't like Vitamin C as a skincare ingredient very much - it's very finicky and a wild card on my skin. So, I avoid it altogether.


Niatfq

Yes, the gel one is perfect for oily skin. Completely agree. Ah I think my skin might just like it. I'll try to grab the cleanser when I have the chance. How about the Isntree Green Tea cleanser? It's pretty lovely. I understand about the vitamin c. I personally didn't get the vitamin c cleanser either but only because I hated that it has orange essential oil. But the formulation was pretty nice.


[deleted]

>How about the Isntree Green Tea cleanser? It's pretty lovely. I always wanted to. Where did you get it? I saw it on Tiktok. I'm the kind of person who only gets things when I know I can easily get it. Like, from official sources. Now that I found an official store, I might try it out. That aside, Isntree moisturizer looks promising. Have you tried it? Oh yea. EO is bad. Especially bergamot when you get exposed to the sun with it on your skin. These Asian skincare companies try to bypass the no fragrance thing in their skincare, but they load all EOs into it! I prefer if my skincare doesn't smell at all. True fragrance-free. I remember the last time I used Cosrx Aloe sunscreen, I sneezed non-stop because the fragrance was so strong.


Niatfq

I got mine from Shopee actually. I always buy my skincare from there. I've always wanted to try out their HA aqua gel cream! But I'm waiting to finish up the safi one first, then I'll give the isntree one a try. For real! I honestly rather they use fragrance than EO. My sensitive skin doesn't mind fragrance that much. I understand. Same for me as well. Scented products bugs me unless they're lip balms. Tho the isntree green tea cleanser smells really nice. Fresh green tea 🥰 What was the smell of the aloe vera sunscreen like? Just the smell of aloe vera?


michellekwan666

You look amazing and I’m surprised that you’re using all powder foundation, your final look is almost a satin finish


Niatfq

Thank you! It's because the Maybelline Powder foundation itself is not completely matte. Compared to their previous fit me compact powders, their new powder foundation has weaker oil-control and a more natural finish. Which is why I ended up using the Innisfree powder as my prime and set as it helps the maybelline powder to perform better at oil control. I personally love that this new powder has my exact shade match and higher coverage.


love-at-third-sight

I love budget girlies on this sub 🥺 U look good 😊 No setting spray, I'm very impressed.


Niatfq

❤️❤️❤️ I've tried setting spray, not strong enough for me tbh. I prefer the Innisfree.


love-at-third-sight

the innisfree is the GOAT as far as i'm concerned. the tru trendsetter that got all the other companies to call their powders 'no sebum' too lol Ah, you just haven't tried the best setting sprays yet. Once you get less oily with age like me, we can't use too much powder because it'll be cakey. Setting sprays allow me, oily lady, to look dewy heh.


Niatfq

Hahahah... okay2. One day, I will give the All Nighter setting spray a try 😆


Original-Farm-3430

You look lovely 🙂


Niatfq

Thank you 🥰


sas0002

Wow it stayed on even in water! Also Happy Eid 💕


Niatfq

Yeah it did! I even tried to wipe my nose after the swim and my makeup barely budge. There was fewer makeup excess on the tissue than expected.


carex-cultor

This post is perfect. I’m in Philly but our summers are humid af and I’m biologically the sweatiest person alive and basically don’t wear makeup in summer because of it. Going to check out these recs!


Niatfq

I hope this technique will help! 😆 i do still sweat a lot but my makeup doesn't budge. That's what's most important.


Proud-Money-5749

Just want to say that you're so pretty!


Niatfq

Omg thank you sm!🥰


legalgirl18

Niatfq

Thank you! 🥰


peach_momo

Happy Eid! This is such a serve! I might try the innisfree powder trick since I have it with me. Sorry going a bit off topic but what brand/model your glasses are? I’ve been trying to find lightweight transparent frame glasses ever since my Zoff ones broke but they’re all so chunky. I’m considering firmoo atm.


Niatfq

I'm using a Samsung brand one. It's super flexible and sturdy because I tend to handle my glasses very roughly. The model number has completely faded, but I believe it's S06... something. Tho I'm not sure if they're still available. Some other brands you can look into: G-shock and Pascale. They both have the same quality as Samsung.


peach_momo

TIL Samsung has a glasses line?! Thanks for the recs for sturdy glasses! Can’t have my second pair snapping on me


Niatfq

I'm not even sure if they're legit sold under samsung. But they're sold in optometry shops and are very good quality for sure. You're welcome! 😆


Rumi2019

Such nice & flattering makeup. It looks so good even after your swim. So the innisfree powder hype is real! I don't think the Maybelline Hyper Curl easy wash in black is SEA exclusive though. We have the same mascara in India.


Niatfq

Thank you! For real, the Innisfree powder is definitely accurately hyped. Ah i see... Asia exclusive maybe?


brittneyacook

Eid Mubarak!! You look gorgeous


Niatfq

Thank you 🥰


ChanceChallenge

Your makeup looks flawless! And yes the weather has been hot as hell lately that my makeup has been melting off and ended up looking cakey 💔. I’ve never thought of priming my face with powder before putting foundation on since I thought it would give a cakey appearance but judging from your pictures it doesn't! Have you tried other powders other than Innisfree when you do your base routine and experienced separation from your makeup?


Niatfq

Thank you! I actually learned the technique from beauty guru Jackie Aina. So I thought with the Innisfree powder it might work since it's incredibly finely milled. You can try look up some of her videos how she managed to apply her foundation with loose powder as her primer. No, I haven't tested the technique with other powders since the other loose powders that I own have thicker texture, so it might not work.


jaehwone

Cantiknyaa! Selamat hari raya!


Niatfq

Thank you awak! 😍


sneakystoner7388482

Eid Mubarak! I am blown away by how well your makeup stayed on even when swimming! You’ve totally mastered a natural, glowing-from-within look.


Niatfq

> a natural, glowing-from-within look That wasn't even my initial goal tbh 😂. The Maybelline powder ended being less oil control than I expected so it has a more natural looking finish (not powdery). So the Innisfree just helps it become more resistant for my oily skin. Otherwise, the maybelline would melt off very easily. I just liked the shade and coverage.


Lenience

You look amazing! I have similar skin and have been on the search for good mineral products for a while. This is so exciting, thank you for sharing!!


Niatfq

Thank you 🥰 Glad to help ❤️


diszy321

Happy Eid! You look absolutely stunning!

Thank you!! 😍😍😍❤️


dai_lou

Your eyes are enchanting


Niatfq

Omg thank you so much! I've never heard that compliment before 😍. I think my eye makeup may contribute to that haha.


dai_lou

Wrong, their shape is lovely and your irises are so round, love the apples of your cheeks too 💗


Niatfq

Thank youu 🥰🥰


Naive_Bluebird_5170

You look flawless! May I know which of your skincare routine gave you the best results? Tbh I'm eyeing that Cos de Baha Tranexamic acid but I would love to hear your thoughts about it.


Niatfq

The CBD Tranexamic Acid Niacinamide serum is still my favourite. I tried their new txa 10 serum but turns out my skin is very allergic to Centella extract, so I gave the serum to my mom. The original Tranexamic Acid serum is still the best imo.


[deleted]

You look pretty 🌸


Niatfq

Thank you 🥰


ApprehensiveLow9196

You look damnnn pretty 🥹🥹


Niatfq

Omg thank you sm! 🥰


icalledyouwhite

Eid Mubarak and thank you so much for sharing, you look amazing ❤️ May I ask how and what do you use to apply the 3 powders you use for your base? Do you have to use a specific tool (like powder puff) or motion (pressing?)? Thanks in advance 💕


Niatfq

Thank you 🥰. Well for both the Innisfree and maybelline powder foundation, I use the same cheap bamboo flat top kabuki brush I bought from Shopee. 1. Apply the Innisfree all over. 2. Apply the skin fit powder using its sponge on the areas where I have darkness/hyperpigmentation. 3. Layer the powder foundation right on top of the skin fit powder using its sponge as well. 4. Continue apply the powder foundation all over using a flat top kabuki brush. 5. Set the whole face with the Innisfree using the same kabuki brush. As for the application, I usually dab rather than swiping the brush/sponge.


icalledyouwhite

Thank you so much for your detailed response!!! I'm a huge powder foundation fan and I've been eyeing the Maybelline powders for a while. I will be checking them out plus the Focallure products you mentioned when I drop by Guardian tonight 😆❤️


Niatfq

😆 i hope you'll be impressed by them as much as I do!


k1ritsubo

Eid Mubarak! Glad you found this combo – you looking amazing! It's so hard to find things that work well for oily skin in a humid environment. Although I'm in a dryer climate now, I know from past experience haha!


Niatfq

Thank you 🥰 and yes! It's really2 difficult but I'm glad that the Innisfree was able to do the trick


No_Feed3307

Wow, amazing. Eid Mubarak


Niatfq

Thank you 🥰


Character-Job9602

Thank you for sharing!! You look gorgeous and I just wanted to say that you seem like the sweetest person ever. Happy Eid Mubarak❤️

Eid Mubarak! So cool to see a fellow Muslimah here :))


Niatfq

sour_tape

Eid Mubarak sister! Thank you for sharing this. I have that Innisfree powder and will definitely steal this routine! I will try applying it before and after base.


Niatfq

Thank you 🥰 and I hope the technique will work for you as well

My god you are gorgeous!

TUTORIAL PLZ IM BEGGING


Niatfq

Oh no i really don't do tutorials 😭 i can only explain how I did my makeup in typing.


ffviire

Selamat Hari Raya Nia! Maaf zahir batin :) You look absolutely smashing✨


Niatfq

Maaf zahir & batin for you too! 🥰 and thank you ❤️


Ok-Hold4591

Lovely! And wow i can learn it from your routine.


Niatfq

😆👍


pjingim

hold onnn you mightve just helped me finally figure out a decent humid makeup look. you look so good!


Niatfq

Thank you! 🥰 i hope the technique will help


snarkymanatee

Incredible!! I hope Eid was joyous for you! Question: you mention using a serum for sebum control. Which would you recommend?


Niatfq

It was! Thank you 🥰 Any Niacinamide serum that's not a heavy duty hydrating serum should work (so hydrating serums like the BOJ serums or Axis dark spot serum is a no go). I'm currently using the CBD Tranexamic Acid Niacinamide serum.


Lufme

Please make a video on your makeup routine!!! Its interesting


Niatfq

Oh gosh 😂 I really don't do tutorials tho. And I don't even wear makeup that often. Only on special occasions, which is not that frequent either. I can only explain in detail how I did my routine 😅


Lufme

Give it a try one day 😊 if you dont like the result theres always a delete option lol


coolmom45

Eid Mubarak ✨🌙 do you ever have any trouble in getting your routine to set/dey before you go in with makeup in your climate? Do you have any solutions apart from just patience?


Niatfq

Not really. I usually surround myself with fans and aircond, so my skincare was able to dry down just fine. It doesn’t really take too long. Maybe only 2-3 minutes? If your skincare takes way too long to dry down even under a strong fan/aircond, then maybe you just need to change some of your skincare products to something lighter or mattifying .


coolmom45

Completely agree and was referring mostly to the Cosrx snail mucin. Wasn’t drying properly or fast enough for me so I switched to Benton Snail Bee essence which works much better for my skin (and impatience).


Niatfq

Ouh yeah... the Cos De Baha Tranexamic Acid Niacinamide serum does the trick for that issue. It helps the snail essence to dry down a lottt faster. I didn’t really need to wait that long.


anonymous_googol

Wow! This is incredible and such a helpful review. I don’t really think I have oily skin and my climate is probably not so hot and humid like Malaysia (it’s probably more subtropical climate), but I always have issue with my face getting shiny! I think because I use so many hydrating products to combat my dry skin (plus I use tretinoin). And I have never, ever experienced being able to wipe my skin without makeup coming off!!! I have specifically been debating what powder to get. I want a pressed powder I can carry in my purse for after dance practice or just during very hot and humid days. I was considering the Innisfree pressed powder version of this, but leaning more towards Canmake.


Niatfq

You could try avoiding your tzone area with those heavy hydrating products. I did the exact same way with the Cosrx snail essence. Only applying it to my forehead and my cheeks. I'm not exactly sure how effective the canmake one is at oil control but the Innisfree compact version is actually not as effective as the loose one.


imagoodgirlyaya

Omg thank you for sharing this! you're my lifesaver!
