My Make up artist founded brands capsule from last week. I have quite a few items that fit the theme and tried to pull out some things that are much older and haven't been used in ... years. Spoiler-This MUFE palette was one that I used and loved to death years ago. it was harder to find cooler toned palettes and the MUFE matte formula was a winner for me. That said, it's been sitting unused for way too long and was the first thing I thought of when looking to pull for this week. I added in two singles I had help the palette out and add in a shimmer shade. - I knew that I wanted to keep the NARS lip oil in this week and thought that some Audacious lipsticks would work well with it. These were favourites around the same time I was in love with the MUFE palette so I was feeling like I was back in time. The brighter shade was nice to have with a burst of warmer weather we had and felt very spring/summer like.-The Nars powermatte... I like the formula but this shade just wasn't what I wanted this week so it only got used once. -The Westman Atelier lip balm/gloss is such a nice formula and I actually went and checked to see if there were any other shades I wanted to pick up last week after using this one again. This is one that I could easily toss into a purse all summer and never tire of. -The MUFE pencil is used as a lipliner and as much as they have a ton of shades I enjoy... I wish there were a few more. I could easily see this formula being the only ones I repeat buy for some time going forward. They're stiff enough to last, but just soft enough to not tug. -This MUFE palette was one that I used and loved to death years ago. it was harder to find cooler toned palettes and the MUFE matte formula was a winner for me.

Spoiler-I pulled the MUFE Watertone because I was looking at some products for the sale that were more tints than foundations. I used this last week and the first few days this week and I used a lot of product. My skin however was looking mighty dry. I'm not sure if the excessive dryness was due to some overused retinol or that this just didn't work for me. It was so full at the start of the week that I'd be shocked if I'd previously used it more than twice. I'm interested in seeing if I can use this mid summer when I'm at my oiliest and get a good result. If so, I'd try to pan this simply due to how quickly I think I could go through this and the good shade match. -The MUFE concealer... is at least half done, and is another candidate for panning. The shade is good, but the formula just isn't a favourite. It doesn't quite set down and I'm someone who touches my face often enough that it ended up under my finger nails and that's just not what I'm aiming for. -The Nars multiple was one of the first multiple products I'd ever used and it really triggered my love of cream products. The colour still stands up and while it's not my most pigmented blush... I've no doubt been going hard on blush and this was a nice switch up for a more subtle look. I need to use this or lose it. I probably should have lost it years ago. - It cosmetics brow pencil, Nars eye primer and Bobbi Brown corrector are items that have popped up in several of my capsules. I actually managed to finish the brow pencil so I'm happy to have one more done and getting closer to getting back to the format I love (tinted brow gels). - Makeup by Mario cream bronzer is something I would never have purchased, but that I love. It's light enough in pigment that it blends easily and doesn't look overboard on my lighter skin tone. I'm very happy I was gifted this in gratis!!-MAC blush... wasn't used all week. I was quite happy with the Nars multiple and didn't reach for this at all!-I pulled the MUFE Watertone because I was looking at some products for the sale that were more tints than foundations.

I've now got a box of products going that once I've decided I should pan them, they'll be put into and as I finish one of my project pan items, I'll pull from the box. I think this is a better idea for me than putting them back into my stash simply for ease of choice when I need a panning item and to keep my stash a little neater looking.

@LaiLahMoNae - I have combo/oily skin and the NARS Soft Matte was too drying for my skin. This was very surprising for me as that had never happened before. I really like LYS Beauty Triple Fix Serum Foundation and Dior Dior Forever Matte Skincare Foundation . I use the Hourglass Veil Mineral Primer .

We may approach blush buying a little similarly @missjeanie I like trying colors that fill a whole that was missing in my collection too. 😉 It does have a little strawberry vibe. I think my favorite of these is probably Bellini or a light touch of Golden Hour 🧡

@BeautyFrEcK I agree with @peculiarzmakeup NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer is a classic. I recommend if you can go to Sephora to try it as a concealer only works properly if you get a good match.

Ouhh that's gorgeous!! @sister13
