@Ispend2much6 despite the lack of lavender, it's a pretty shade!

[CynthieLu]

I'm not picking up the lavender either @Ispend2much6, it's so stange that they used that as a description. 🤔

[caitbird]

@Ispend2much6  that is a lovely color! I'm glad you like it, even if the shade description is off.

Small haul for three 4x skincare points

Trying new eye cream,  will let you know what i think after I have used it for awhile.

 

[lmaster]

Yes! Let us know 😁 @CorgiMommy 

[CorgiMommy]

@lmaster I will

[Titian06]

I'd like to know about the eye cream, @CorgiMommy .  I picked up the SEPHORA COLLECTION Lift & Firm - Smoothing & Firming Eye Cream with Peptides + Hyaluronic Acid 0.67 ... .  It's nice, but I don't like the square container.

[CorgiMommy]

That is funny about the container @Titian06 

[caitbird]

@CorgiMommy  great haul - and way to get those points! 💪 I have not seen this eye cream before, but it looks promising. I hope you like it! 

[CorgiMommy]

Thanks @caitbird 

[PrettyPaint]

@CorgiMommy I hope you like the eye cream!

[CynthieLu]

Great haul! Yes, gotta get those points @CorgiMommy 😉 Ahhh were twinning! I used the promo to try a new eye cream too. What benefits/results are you hoping for? I'm really hunting for anything to help with my dark circles. 

[CorgiMommy]

@CynthieLu I always need an eye cream to depuffs but now looking to keep down any fine lines I may have

Catching up with a few hauls from last month (and possibly earlier 😬) and earlier this month

Diptyque, Sephora

- Diptqyue Freesia candle - I don't have many floral scents from Diptqyue (other than their rose fragrance which I have in numeorus forms, lol) so it was easy to persuade myself to pick up a floral candle for spring - yes, I know, florals for spring are not groundbreaking 😅

-HAUS LABS BY LADY GAGA Color Fuse Longwear Hydrating Glassy Lip + Cheek Blush Balm Stick Glassy Clov... - beautiful blush-and-bronzer in one

- Rhode Pocket Blush - Sprinkle (previously a limited edition shade, now part of the permanent collection)

-PAT McGRATH LABS Skin Fetish: Glass 001 Legendary Glow Setting Spray 3.38 fl oz/100 mL - the mist on this is fantastic!

-RANAVAT Daily Brightening Mineral Face Sunscreen, SPF 50+ with Saffron for Dark Spots and Squalane f... 

- promo gwp = I have the full size of the Ultra Violette Future Fluid SPF 50+ Superlight Mineral Fragrance Free Facial Sunscreen Serum 1.7 oz/... and this mini version will be great to keep with me on my next trip.

Picked up  gift card for a graduation gift.

Rhode pocket blush (shade: sprinkle)

Finding Ferdinand

I first learned about Finding Ferdinand at an event I attended last year and I picked up a couple of items, including that lipstick. I ended up purchasing a few more things during a sale last month. 

- Finding Ferdinand Tender Blush - in shades Skinny Dip (soft, neutral pink) and Pho (neutral dark red) - pho is one of my favorite foods so I had to pick up the blush 😉

- Finding Ferdinand The Black Lip Balm (a gift)

Emily Joubert, Elemis, Sephora

- Fragonard Fleur de Citronnier - zesty lemon, sweet orange, rich jasmine, creamy amber

- Elemis Pro-Collagen Black Cherry Cleansing Balm - I like their original balm but this black cherry is my fave from the brand. I purchased a travel size online and was pleasantly surprised to find one in a gratis bag last month. 

- EADEM Le Chouchou Exfoliating + Softening Peptide Lip Balm Guava Fresca - hazy petal pink is lovely for spring and summer, and completes my Eadem lip balm collection. 

Swatches to come.

Nice hauls @itsfi ! I need to add the PMG setting spray to my list!

[curlychiquita]

Beautiful makeup. I always want to buy half of what you own, @itsfi. 😄

[itsfi]

That is very kind of you to say, @curlychiquita; thank you.

[danielledanielle]

Oooh, now you have me excited to crack open the PAT McGRATH LABS Skin Fetish: Glass 001 Legendary Glow Setting Spray 3.38 fl oz/100 mL @itsfi , so 🙌🏽

Also, love hearing your eadem lip balm collection is complete.

[itsfi]

@danielledanielle, I've been quietly picking up a balm here and there, along with their new (and older) products. I'm pretty sure I have everything they've launched, though there are a couple of items that I haven't yet used, either at all 😬  or as consistently as I would like. 

[itsfi]

@danielledanielle, @curlychiquita, @PrettyPaint, I was / am surprised by how well I like it. The mist is very fine and covers a good amout of surface area. My skin is on the dry and dehydrated side at the moment, with my lower T-zone having a tendency to lean on the oily side. I've found this to be nicely hydrating on my skin, while leaving a dewiness to my complexion without making me look oily or greasy. My skin looks illuminated if that makes sense - there really is a glass skin like finish to it, blurring too. That said, the glow will fade as the day wears on (not completely), but it still gave that blurred, healthy skin look, so reapplication is needed if I want that more amplified glass skin effect. 

Here's the part I find very interesting - I have, on 4+ different occasions, applied it to on a different half of my face, using another hydrating setting spray on the other half. The side of my face on which the PAT McGRATH LABS Skin Fetish: Glass 001 Legendary Glow Setting Spray 3.38 fl oz/100 mL is applied has looked more ... supple, plump. Those are generally descriptors I use more often for skincare products like my essences, serums and masks - it's intrigued me. I still want to test it out in some different conditions and vis-a-vis other similar products, but so far, this one has impressed me.
