Heh heh, I love the Fame in the Fur @SportyGirly125 

[SportyGirly125]

@danielledanielle Yes I love how chic it is. I only started trying the brand after I heard clients in store rave about it.

Some early January treats! Happy New Year to all and Happy Birthday to January babies! 🎆🥂🥳

Spoiler

MERIT Flush Balm Cream Blush Le BonBon and Postmodern- love the new shades! Postmodern is really flattering and Le Bon Bon is a fresh take on pink. 
PAT McGRATH LABS LiquiLUST™: Legendary Wear Matte Lipstick Elson 4 - was so happy to grab this. I haven’t tried this formula and it really works well with a balm underneath it. Iconic cool-toned red. 
Topicals Slick Salve Glossy Lip Balm for Soothing + Hydration Acai - good pigment and feels nice. A bit sticky imo but I like it. 
Iris&Romeo Lip Cocoon Hydrating Barrier Repair Lip Balm with Peptides 0.67 oz / 19 g - this is a winner. Very smooth, soft and comforting with a subtle rose scent . ( Reminds me of By Terry Baume de Rose Balm.) This line can do no wrong imo! 
NATASHA DENONA Mini Eye Sculpt Eyeshadow Palette - good combo of neutral shades in silky matte and creamy matte formulas. These will be a nice workhorse palette on it’s own or with others 
Wanted to try the DRMTLGY eye corrector for a bit now. This is Medium. Nice cooling applicator tho a lot comes out. Blends well to use either alone or with a drier concealer on top of it. It gives a nice brightening glow.

@SunnysmomVery nice!  I got the ND with Ulta points.  I was afraid it would be a returned item and too warm, but it actually works really well for me!  And, very smooth shadows.

I'm so glad you posted the Merit blushes.  I was looking at those shades!

[Sunnysmom]

It’s a good basic little palette isn’t it @Ispend2much6 ?! I think it’ll be very useful. Love the Merit! Go for ‘em! 

[Shosh85]

You always take such great photos, @Sunnysmom! Love the Merit shades you picked out! 😍

[Sunnysmom]

Aww thank you so much @Shosh85 ! 💞 I can’t resist all things Merit and these don’t disappoint! 

[lmaster]

Ohhh I like the topicals swatch! @Sunnysmom lovely haul

[Sunnysmom]

It tastes good too @lmaster ! 🥰

[faeriegirl]

Nice haul @Sunnysmom ! 

[Sunnysmom]

Thanks @faeriegirl , am excited to use these! Look forward to seeing yours too! 💞

[curlychiquita]

Nice purchases, @Sunnysmom!

[Sunnysmom]

Enjoying them already , thanks @curlychiquita ! 🤗

[SportyGirly125]

@Sunnysmom Amazing haul!  Topicals slick salve is on my try list since clients rave about it.

[Sunnysmom]

Thanks @SportyGirly125 ! Oh do they, good to know!  It is a little bit different than others I do find. Love the color! (It’s fun to hear your perspective from the store/customers too, thank you!)

Are we vibing in Elson?!?! I think we are @Sunnysmom .... My Fenty Beauty by Rihanna Fenty Icon Velvet Liquid Lipstick H.B.I.C. # went 👎🏽 so I looked to Elson because I knew I had an open one somewhere.  Funny enough,  also finding out this was apparently Taylor Swift's color 🤷🏽‍♀️, so it's OOS'ED.  Glad to see you with it!

[Sunnysmom]

🥰 I think we are @danielledanielle , love it! I was thinking it was going to be a bit warmer, more neutral so I was really happy to see how cool it leaned. What you think of it? I have no other Pat Liquids. I think I’d read that too so that surely makes sense it would be OOS forEVER! Shirley. 🙃 Sorry to hear about HBIC, condolences.
