@CynthieLu, this was a fun haul; thank you. I have tried the sequin lips; I have a few of them. This is my second of Dazzle; I ended up gifting the first one. Everything here has been performing beautifully! 👍🏼

That brush set is incredible @itsfi 

[itsfi]

Thank you @PrettyPaint. I’m always stunned by how well crafted her brushes are - the brushes themselves are wonderful and the design on the handles is magnificent 😍; these photos don’t do them justice.

Beautiful haul! That lip mask sounds like a fantastic scent duo, I’ll be interested to see how you like it! Gorgeous lippie and blush shades. The box is beautiful and lovely decor and photos. Hope you enjoy ❤️ @itsfi

@peculiarzmakeup, I’m partial to salted caramel; it reminds me of a cupcake truck that had a salted caramel cupcake as one of its signature cupcakes 🧁 Have you tried the Fenty lip masks before? Or do you have a favorite lip mask? 

[peculiarzmakeup]

I have not tried fenty lip masks before I’ll have to check them out my fave is the Tatcha The Kissu Lip Mask Original i like the feel and smoothness it’s very hydrating 🙂 @itsfi 

[itsfi]

The original Tatcha Kissu has a great formula - it's jelly-like but like you said @peculiarzmakeup, applies very smoothly and does a great job of hydrating the lips.

Plus that little spoon applicator is just cute as can be 🙂 I love little things they add to products to make things easier it’s truly amazing @itsfi 

[itsfi]

So true @peculiarzmakeup; those little details can net some big rewards, right?! Tatcha does a marvelous job of including little touches that are practical and doing so in such a beautiful way. ♥️ Love & appreciate when brands do that.

That brush set is gorgeous @itsfi!

[itsfi]

@faeriegirl, thank you. She does such a beautiful job with her brushes. The quality is wonderful and the presentation is just so aesthetically appealing.

@itsfi  Beautiful haul!! Ha not me trying to reach through the screen to inspect the bottom of your Gucci blush. 

[itsfi]

Hahaha @heartsmyface, here you go - inspect away! 🔍

super gorgeous @itsfi !

@itsfi  Lovely haul, especially the Japanese Gardens brush set! I’m still trying to resist it… trying very hard. I’ve been using the Summer Koi set nonstop, and I can see myself using this set too. I hope you get a lot of use out of it. 

[itsfi]

@WinglessOne, oh, I don't want you to pick it up if you are trying to resist, but these are very nicely done a la Sonia G's style. I think you'd get good use out of this set. I've been really happy with her brushes. Even happier with this one since I shaved off a lot of the cost fo the set with store credit/gift cards. 😄

[danielledanielle]

Oooh, those brushes!  And so quickly!  @itsfi How is the salted caramel scent on the lip mask 🤔

[itsfi]

@danielledanielle,  I was surprised they arrived so quickly! My initial whiff of it made me think "butterscotch". It's got a caramel like scent; it's not synthetic or cloying; sweet but not too sweet. This lip mask and the Touchland salted caramel are the current dynamic duo in my handbag this week - Touchland to keep my hands sanitized, Fenty to keep my lips moisturized. Both with a delicious scent.

I have been eyeing that lip gloss.  Love the brushes @itsfi 

[CorgiMommy]

@itsfi I have not,  they look lovely.  I have to go check them out.

[itsfi]

@CorgiMommy, thank you; I pick up all of the Gucci rosewood lip shades (or have so far) so this was a must have. It's quite nice; have you tried their lip glosses before?
