Jovial July Hauls 2025

[WinglessOne]

Is retail therapy helping you handle hot summer weather? Or is this month Justifiable July Hauls for you, sticking to a low-buy plan? Either way, show us all the goodies you got this month! 

Besides the 1st for Canada and the 4th for the US, there are some beauty-related national (in the US anyway) days to celebrate: 

• July 3 - National Compliment Your Mirror Day, more about affirming your reflection than the mirror it’s in. Practice a little self-kindness and love this month. ❤️
• July 23 - Gorgeous Grandma Day, whether or not you have grandkids. I don’t, but I’m certainly old enough to! 😅
• July 29 - National Lipstick Day, a favorite among us lipstick hoarders lovers. Though let’s be honest, all of July is Lipstick Month. 😂💄

Love your thread @WinglessOne . 💄🥰 The Cheekbone and PM shades look wonderful on you, adding some to my list! ( Making very good headway on purging lips so maybe I can add one or two for NLD?! 😊)

[WinglessOne]

Thanks @Sunnysmom, and congrats on your declutter progress! Gotta make room for a couple new lipstick loves. 👍

Those swatches are awesome.  I never heard of Cheekbone will have to check it out @WinglessOne 

[WinglessOne]

Thanks @CorgiMommy ! Cheekbone is an indigenous-owned Canadian brand. They’re definitely worth checking out!

Now that is a company I can support @WinglessOne

Wow, the Biskane blush color looks stunning, @WinglessOne! I’ll try to remember Compliment Your Mirror day tomorrow, I’m sure I’ll need the pick me up midday.

[WinglessOne]

Thanks @curlychiquita ! I hope your day goes well. And hey, if you forget about tomorrow, there’s always the day after; July can always be self-kindness month. 🙂

Thank you for starting the monthly thread @WinglessOne 🩷 Oooh it's almost national lipstick day! I am hoping we see an abundance of good deals to celebrate. This is a lovely haul for you to start us off with this month and very lip friendly. 💄 

[WinglessOne]

Thanks @CynthieLu ! Haha, “very lip friendly” is how I should describe my makeup collection in general. 😂 I hope we see better (or at least more) lipstick deals this 29th than we have in recent years!

@WinglessOne, great to hear Cheekbone has made their lipsticks refillable. 👍 I have the original packaging from before they entered Sephora Canada. Askîhk looks good on you. Hope the gloss wears well for you.

[WinglessOne]

Thanks @itsfi ! Cheekbone’s lip gloss is also refillable; forgot to mention that. I’ll likely test that gloss this weekend.
