Brûlée sounds so yummy! @faeriegirl 🤩 how do you like it??

[faeriegirl]

I do like it @CynthieLu , but the strawberry is still my favorite!

[CynthieLu]

That's good to know! @faeriegirl 🍓

@faeriegirl what a fun haul,  enjoy

[faeriegirl]

Thank you @CorgiMommy!

[Sunnysmom]

Really good @faeriegirl ! I am always curious about Exuviance products. Do you use them? 

[faeriegirl]

This is my first product from them @Sunnysmom . I like it so far. It’s thick and feels very hydrating.

[Sunnysmom]

Oh I like that idea for an eye cream @faeriegirl , thanks! 🤗 I think I’ve had a little sample of their regular moisturizer in a sampler bag. Need to revisit it if so!

@faeriegirl  Ulta's really hitting it with the gwp's lately- very nice!

[faeriegirl]

I was very surprised by it @Ispend2much6 !

NLD plus the freebie lips courtesy Ulta plus 20% off. 💄❤️ 2 minis came broken but have been replaced. These Pat M are tricky lol. Also the fun Sephora Givenchy mini is broken but it’s ok, I can still use it. So cute! Included the 2 lips I got right before NLD too- the Nars and LM. The new Ilia highlighter is very subtle and pretty! Recommend if you like a soft look. 😊 Some comments below. (Also, anybody need tomatoes?! For some reason they’re really growing this year!! Can’t keep up! 🤣)

Spoiler

Free Stila from Ulta, Chanel blush duo and fun aqua liner crayon and MAC new shade blush which is really great as a highlighter. Subtle shift to it and really pretty. The Chanel eye was a gamble but it’s really fun used lightly as liner over their Electric Brown stick. The Kylie Lip Tint feels decent but doesn’t show too much. This was a bunch of swipes. I expected a tiny bit more pigment but oh well. Lol , on sale. I really love these Clinique lips. Have another one and these are also terrific for pigment, long-lasting and comfort. The pink has a really good sheen to it with a little tiny sparkle but it’s pretty layered or on its own. It’s a great pink! Enjoying the new Nars- this shade seems more translucent and doesn’t last quite as long but it’s a nice weight. The Laura Mercier has more to it. Loving the Ilia highlighter! Not sure about the 12 hours but maybe?!  Bet the other shades and bronzers are also great! Very soft and subtle.  I’ve not tried this Oribe formula before. Smells great and I like the feel of it- my hair feels very clean afterwards. So good to try samples this way!

[Sunnysmom]

Hi sweet @curlychiquita ! Thank you! It’s fun to try new stuff especially in mini form too! 🤗🥰 

[lmaster]

Those swatches are stunning @Sunnysmom 

[Sunnysmom]

They’re vibrant and fun @lmaster ! 💞

Thanks for the swatches, I was looking at the Chanel one I think between that and the purple. How does it stay on the lids. Do you have oily lids? @Sunnysmom 

[Sunnysmom]

The shades are all really pretty @Buootiful . I wouldn’t say my eyes are very oily no , pretty normal but I also use a creamy base shadow then a powder shadow before I apply these. That way they stay quite well. I really also just use a very thin line for the aqua shade so I think that helps too. But honestly it does stay for a bunch of hours if over a powder shadow. When I use my other shades of them I do the same thing, over a powder. If using alone no they wouldn’t stay very long even on my eyelids. Love to hear if you pick them up!

@Sunnysmom I don't think that I've heard much feedback on the ILIA Lightshift Weightless Silky Cream Highlighter with 12-hour Wear yet but it looks pretty.
