I can’t wait for the sale! I’m planning to pick up the Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Finish Setting Powder 

[CynthieLu]

That looks really good! @riiko 🙂

[ReneaCarlyyyy]

I really want to try the Rare Beauty lip oil! And I need a new sunscreen for my face! Still undecided on which to try.

[samrake]

I just ordered the BareMinerals Complexion Rescue Hydrating Gel Cream. It's SPF30, but not marketed as a sunscreen - and it has no comedogenic ingredients! I already use their foundation and it's great. Worth checking out! 

[CynthieLu]

That lip oil looks good! I hear you, Spf is sooo important @ReneaCarlyyyy.

I really enjoy the supergoop sunscreens alot, have you tried them before?

[ReneaCarlyyyy]

Not yet! That’s one on my list to try 🤩

[CynthieLu]

I hope you can find a sunscreen you like @ReneaCarlyyyy 😀

[NMS101]

I want to get the Rare beauty tinted lip oil in Serenity or Honesty and one for my Mom and then a concealer from the Rare beauty line and the eye brightener too, 

Not sure what else ! 
I might also get a Sephora lip liner and cream gloss for my Mom.

Just a sampling of what I’ll be getting with my 20% off 🥰

Tower 28 Beauty SOS Daily Rescue Facial Spray 4 oz/ 120 mL 

ILIA Super Serum Skin Tint SPF 40 Foundation Sombrio ST2.5 

Sephora Favorites Bestsellers Perfume Discovery Set 

Kosas Mini Revealer Super Creamy + Brightening Concealer with Caffeine and Hyaluronic Acid Tone 1.5 ... 

[CynthieLu]

Excellent list for the sale @minusmymakeup 🤩

[AnxiousAmoeba]

Ooh perfect. I got lots of Inspo

[KelliBelle913]

I really line to get the higher priced items t 20% off so, for now I’m thinking the Pat McGrath Mothership VII and her foundation, the Dior Backstage Highlight and Eyeshadow Palette, an Hourglass Lip Gloss and a YSL Rouge Volupte, I really love them.  I’m still working on my list 

[danielledanielle]

@KelliBelle913, good start, so far.  We're all still working on a list, thank goodness the code is multi-use!

[melanito]

I will treat myself to Westman Atelier Vital Pressed Skincare Blurring Talc-Free Setting Powder probably in pink shade. I love getting 20% Westman!! I am considering the Westman Atelier Lip Suede Lipstick Palette Les Nudes but really find it to be too expensive especially for a product where shades aren't separated into different pans.  I hope this year she comes out with lipsticks in individual shades. I have my eye onKAYALI YUM PISTACHIO GELATO 33 EDP INTENSE but am waiting for more verified purchase reviews. I am almost out of some regulars like my OUAI Rose Hair & Body Oil and Josie Maran Argan Infinity Cream Intensive Creamy Oil 2.2 oz/ 65 mL.  

[PrettyPaint]

@melanito  I’m also interested in the pistachio fragrance, but I’m also a little concerned about all of the incentivized reviews. 

[danielledanielle]

Great picks @melanito .  I am with you on that lip palette, it looks so good, but yeah, it would be better if they were separate pans.

Since this seems like a great place to ask - does anyone have any recommendations for SPF? I have a liquid one that I use under my makeup Shiseido Urban Environment Oil-Free SPF 42 Face Sunscreen w/ Hyaluronic Acid but I have an upcoming trip and will be outdoors for quite some time. As I'm pretty sure I can't reapply this sunscreen over my makeup (I think that would be a hot mess) I was looking at something like the Supergoop! (Re)setting 100% Mineral Powder SPF 35 Mineral Sunscreen 0.15 oz / 4.43 mL . I have dry skin so I'm not sure about a powder but as I'm also fair skinned and I def don't want to burn and cause damage. Any and all suggestions appreciated!

[Cissy63]

Hi @niki172  I have been using Supergoop! Unseen Sunscreen Invisible Broad Spectrum SPF 40 PA +++ for the last year.  I have sensitive as well as combo skin.  My eczema has not been bothered by it.  If I choose it can double as a primer.  Maybe a spray Supergoop! Mini (Re) Setting Refreshing Mist SPF 40 1 oz/ 30 mL would help during the day ! 

[CamiAshworth]

The sprayer on the ReSetting Mist is a joke! Straight streams of sunscreen in random places on my face. DESTROYED my makeup at Disneyland.

[Anastasiya13]

Thinking about maybe getting the sephora summer favorites set, or the sun block one, and than getting some goodies from glow recipe for my mom

[PrettyPaint]

@Anastasiya13  Me too. I’m hoping the sun safety one is still available.
