Buying good (not killing you or damaging your skin) cosmetics and using them properly is an art, as I've observed watching my wife. To be honest, the best really is to just use retinol creams? and take care of your diet. This way you can get away using hardly any make up. Bonus is that you don't need to wash it off afterwards. But beauty treatments and knowledge is expensive, that's why poorer or less informed people have to make do with make up. Don't quote me on this, but usually the most advertised brands are also the ones that are most toxic (just repeating what I've learned from my wife).

> the most advertised brands are also the ones that are most toxic I truly believe this is true of just about everything. The harder they have to advertise it, the more likely it's actually really fucking bad for us. What gets advertised the most - sugary snacks, pharmaceuticals, huckster lawyers, insurance, pesticide laden cereal and grain products, bitcoin, fossil fuel, fast food, mortgages, gambling sites, cigarettes (in countries where that's still legal)... Where's the ads for organic carrots, or watermelon?
