Help, please. I am looking for the following and an struggling to find them:

  1. Green eye pencil (moss or khaki)
  2. Cream blusher in peach (nothing too pink)
  3. Lipstick in terracotta / orange

I?ve looked at Lavera, Liz Earle, Dr Hauske, etc. (excuse the spellings) in John Lewis and Holland and Barrett, and I can?t find the colours I want, so I wondered if any of you know anything?
TIA

Estee Lauder, Clarins, Ultima and Maybelline do a khaki eye pencil.

Elysambre are good. Also BWC.

BWC does a lipstick called terracotta and one called copper knob ( this one is shimmery). For a natural look I rate their toffee apple shade. It is a brown/orange with a slight pinkness.

Elysambre does a matte lipstick as well as a shimmery one and is very good in terms of staying power.

UNE at boots is really good in terms of the range. They have warm toned products and you can see them which is helpful! I think they are good although the lipsticks don't last long they have a lovely texture.

UnE G20 looks a good match re the eye pencil. BWC also have a green kohl.

Also just to add a lot of BWC products run warm. The lipsticks I mentioned are from there silver range but they have a new line and there seems to be a lot of choice.

BWC blushers are powder but mineral powder and very good. Tawny rose is a good warm natural shade that skews orange rather than pink.

BWC chilli is a really bright orange/red. You can pick up quite a lot on EBay really cheaply but dodge BWC if the packaging is blue as it is years old.

Thank you. I haven't seen BWC anywhere and had forgotten the brand, but I remember using it years ago and liked it. I'll google it later.

the other options for cream blush, but more expensive, are Vapour Beauty or RMS, both available from beingcontent.com

I reviewed both on yumetc if you want more pics
