Astonishing August Hauls 2023

[SportyGirly125]

Please show your Astonishing August Hauls for this month. I can’t wait to see what everyone gets. 

This month is also the Sephora Friends and Family Sale from August 11-20th, 2023. It’s a one time use code. 

Happy Birthday to all the August babies!

I'll stick this here, since technically I bought it and it arrived during August. But I only just got back today, so I didn't get to open it in August. 

Not the samples I was hoping for, but that's alright. Testing a new cleanser/moisturizer. Some dew drops, as I'm out from the fruit babies set and I think this is what was doing wonders for my skin. New lash bond since I'm running low. And got the offer to test out a function hair mask that I'm excited about!

I think I needed some retail therapy in August.

This looks like some sound retail therapy @CookieGirl1. Lilybyred is a new Kbeauty brand to me; looks like you picked up a sampling of their lipstick goodies. 👄

@itsfi I'm just dipping my toes into K-beauty so I scoured Reddit for recommendations.  I absolutely fell in love with the Lilybyred Romantic Mousse Liar Tint formula but I need more shades!  The shades all run a little warm for my taste so now I'm on the hunt for a similar product (and I'm sure that it's probably pretty common for AB; I'm just new enough to it that I need to try a few more).

[itsfi]

KBeauty, for skincare or makeup, is a fun pool to dip your toes into @CookieGirl1! 😊 Hmmm, moussy lip tint ... you may want to try Peripera Ink Airy Velvet lip tints (or maybe it's Peripera Airy Ink Velvet lip tints?). That's the one I'd think is most similiar to the Lilybyred based on the mousse like name. Just be sure to look for the Airy one - the brand has another tint, with a similar name (minus the "Airy"). Peripera usually has a pretty good color range for their lip products. K-Beauty has a lot of lip tints, the original versions were more watery in consistency and then there are the jelly/gel versions, the velvets, and the mousse / whipped like textured ones. Just don't necessarily go by the color of the product in the photos of the bottle ~ they can be waaaaayyy off. 😬

@itsfi A couple of the tints that I purchased were the more "watery" ones and I definitely don't enjoy those as much.  I actually looked at those from Peripera that you mentioned and I was also looking at a couple from Moonshot, Clio, and Romand in terms of the texture so one of these days I'll try a few more :).
