Capsule Makeup Collection Challenge

[itsfi]

Hello, BIC Beauties! If the idea of makeup capsules piques your curiosity, or you're interested in seeing what's in the beauty collection or weekly makeup bag of your fellow BIC beauties, jump right on in - with questions, comments or a capsule of your own to share.

To add a fun take on putting together a makeup capsule, I've included theme(s) for the weekly capsule - some weeks, I have enough products in my stash (eek!) to make a whole capsule based on the prompt; other weeks, I have just one or two items that fit neatly within theme.

Whether you find yourself in the same place or somewhere in between, jump right on it and share your weekly makeup capsule. Check out the FAQ section below ⤵️ for more info on this challenge.

CURRENT MAKEUP CAPSULE THEME:   

 Week 48 (November 25 - December 1) - The Things I'm Thankful For Makeup Capsule and/or The “BIC Inspired” Fall Makeup Capsule - With  Thanksgiving (November 28) in the US taking place this week, let's curate a capsule made up of one or more products you are thankful for, be it: 

• because it was gifted to you by a friend, family or brand
• because it's a HG or a tried-and-true product you just can't be without
• because it holds sentimental or nostalgic value to you
• or, just because

Alternatively, put together a capsule with this season's makeup picks inspired by our phenomenal Beauty Insider Community.

Upcoming Makeup Capsule Themes: [Updated 11.21.2024] Take a sneak peek at the weekly themes to come.

Week 49 (December 2 - 😎 - The Beautifully Bold or Delightfully Demure Makeup Capsule and/or The "Savvy Shopper" Makeup Capsule - 

The "Beautifully Bold or Delightfully Demure" Makeup Capsule prompt was inspired by a comment by the mom of our marvelous @caitbird.  Mama caitbird is a gem - bringing broken mugs back to life, making delicious meals and treats. She's a superwoman and it just made me laugh heartily when caitbird shared about an occasion when her mom gave her major side-eye over one of caitbird's stunningly vibrant and beautiful makeup looks of the day. Curate a capsule with the one or more products you use for a beautifully bold or delightfully demure look. Or, a capsule for a mix of these two looks.

Discover a loved product from the Sephora sales event? Or, did a holiday savings event item just find its way to your front door? Were there beauties too good to pass up during the Black Friday, Green Friday, Small Business Saturday,  Cyber Monday, or general holiday sales? Share a makeup capsule consisting of one or more beauties you picked up during the holiday sale season. 

Week 50 (December 9 - 15) -  The Sticks 2.0 Makeup Capsule and/or The "Favorite Theme From The Challenge" Makeup Capsule 

Ahhhh, stick products - they're easy to use, portable and get the job done! Shine a spotlight this week on one or more stick products that bring you joy. Thank you to @danielledanielle and @missjeanie for their love of stick makeup products.

Sticks not your thing? Not a problem. Curate a capsule based on your favorite theme of this makeup capsule challenge.

Week 51 (December 16 - 22) -  The Winter Wonderland Makeup Capsule and/or The "Take 2" / "Do Over" Makeup Capsule - With the winter solstice coming December 21, let's put together a capsule of one or more product that celebrates the season!

Show us the beauties you use when you want to add glitz and glam (or, that up the glitz and glam element) to your makeup look.

and/or 

Curate a bag with your go-to, GOAT, ride-or-die products that would make up your ultimate makeup capsule collection (for 2024). If it's too much to put together a creme de la creme capsule or if you're at your best with options, consider putting together a makeup capsules of one or more favorites you discovered (or re-discovered) in 2024.

FAQs: [Updated 4.28.2024]

What is a capsule makeup collection?  

A capsule makeup collection is a selection of makeup products that can be used to put together different looks for a variety of occasions. For some of us, that may mean a group of essential products for your everyday look plus a few extra items for a more glam or dramatic look; and, for others of us, that may mean, a lineup of our holy grail product(s) in each makeup category. My ideal capsule makeup collection probably falls somewhere in between - we'll (hopefully) find out at the end of the year! I don't see myself as a minimalist, but I don't have an extensive collection of makeup either. I appreciate the collections of people who fall within both camps but I float somewhere in between - on the one hand, my brow product collection would earn a gold star if we were using a minimalist approach to makeup; my lip product lineup, on the other hand, would not. 🤣 It would most definitely not.  

Why have a capsule makeup collection?  

Everyone will have their own reasons for having (or not having) a more streamlined makeup collection. Over the years, I've just become more interested in having less beauty products on hand (well, except for lip products, lol) - a handful of items I use or reach for more frequently with maybe a few additional products that are go-to's for me for special events or occasions.  Don't get me wrong, I love trying new products and I don't see that changing. I just like the idea of having a simpler collection (I appreciate that "simpler" can be relative), curated to my needs and lifestyle.

Why weekly? 
A few years ago, beauty & lifestyle blogger Serein Wu, did a weekly series (on her blog and YouTube channel), Makeup Bag Monday, where she rotated her makeup bag each week with new product launches and makeup already in her collection. Every Monday, she shared the products she selected for the upcoming week and provided detailed makeup reviews on the makeup she used for the previous week. I may not post detailed reviews, but will at least try to include a weekly recap (probably at the end of the week) of what products I like and which ones didn't work for me.  If weekly works for you, great. If not, feel free to join in based on what works best for you.

What if I don't have enough products to fit the theme for a full face?

No need for your entire makeup capsule to fit the weekly theme(s). Just one will do. And, even if you don't have one that fits squarely within a theme, feel free to post your makeup capsule. We'd love to see what you're using and hear your feedback on the products as you put them to use. 

[makeitup305]

Bummer @danielledanielle . I hope it was just an unlucky coincidence and not the products!

[itsfi]

Week 46 - The "Time Capsule" Makeup Capsule

I approached this week's capsule as if putting together my ultimate makeup capsule collection (or of products that would be part of it), though I pared it down to a more manageable set for this week. 👍 

Spoiler

💗  Skin prep: Dior One-Minute Mask after cleansing and toning and before my serum(s), moisturizer,  and SPF. 

COMPLEXION: 

🌼  Primer (Face): Bobbi Brown Base is my go-to in the cooler months. I don't generally pull this out until we're closer to winter but it's been a cooler autumn so this'll be in the rotation for a few months.

🌹 Foundation: Going with a tried-and-true GOAT, the Tower 28 SunnyDays in Melrose

🌻 Concealer: Haus Labs for a couple of spots

🌷Setting Powder: I'm going with a favorite of mine, Sephora Collection Microsmooth Pressed Powder

EYES:

❇️ Primer (Eyes): about-face Shadow Fix Eye Primer - I'll be alternating between this and the NARS Pro-Prime most of the time

🎀 Eyeshadow: I'm including the Natasha Denona Biba Eye Shadow Palette here (in the time capsule) more for sentimental reasons than anything else and it seems fitting that it should have a place in a time capsule given just how much time I've spent working my way through the shadows in it. I will, from time to time during the week, supplement with different eyeshadows.

💟  Eyeliner (lash line): Mizon Vegan Waterproof Eyeliner is one I've really been impressed with.

✨ Eyeliner (waterline): Makeup by Mario Master Mattes Brightening Pencil - Light 1 (discontinued)

👁  Eyelash curler: Tower 28

👀  Mascara: Clio Kill Lash Superproof Mascara #01 Long Curling

💛  Brows: Glossier brow pomade

CHEEKS:

🌺 Blush: Ami Cole Blush Stick - Hibiscus and Rhode Pocket Blush - Sleepy Girl

🍁 Bronzer / Contour: Dior Bronzer & Contour Stick

LIPS:

😍  Lip balm: Rhode Peptide lip Treatment

🐐  Tinted lip balm: Bonne Bell Lip Smacker - Dr. Pepper (discontinued) (not pictured)

💄  Lipstick (liquid lipstick): Sephora Collection Cream Lip Stain 10 HR Liquid Lipstick - 80 Honeymoon (not pictured) - this represents the other capsule theme - it is an awesome and affordable find during the holiday savings event, and the burgundy lip color that I've been on the hunt for for some time.  

💞  Lip oil: Rare Beauty Lip Oil - Delight - this is really more of a stain than an oil. For lip oils my favorite are the Ami Cole lip oils. This along with the Ami Cole and Rhode blushes and the lippies in the battle of the red lipsticks make up my lip options for the week. 

THE "FITS":  

The decision for which bag to use for this week's capsule was easy. 

And, it all fit - this bag holds so much. 👍

DIOR Capture Dreamskin 1-Minute Mask 2.5 oz / 75 mL 

Bobbi Brown Vitamin Enriched Face Base Moisturizer & Primer with Vitamin C + Hyaluronic Acid 1.7 oz/... 

Tower 28 Beauty SunnyDays SPF 30 Tinted Sunscreen Foundation 

HAUS LABS BY LADY GAGA Triclone Skin Tech Hydrating + De-puffing Concealer with Fermented Arnica 

SEPHORA COLLECTION Microsmooth Multi-Tasking Baked Face Powder Foundation 

Glossier Boy Brow Volumizing Eyebrow Gel-Pomade 

Ami Colé Desert Date Cream Blush & Lip Multistick Hibiscus 

DIOR Forever 24H Skin Contour Stick Sculpting and Bronzing Face Stick 

SEPHORA COLLECTION Cream Lip Stain 10HR Liquid Lipstick 80 Honeymoon 

Rare Beauty by Selena Gomez Soft Pinch Tinted Lip Oil Stain Delight 

Thank you so much @peculiarzmakeup for this fabulous and novel theme for this week's makeup capsule. All the beauties here are phenomenal and would have a place in a time capsule as well as my ultimate makeup capsule collection. 

[peculiarzmakeup]

Love this ❤️ your capsule is so well constructed I love the elements of time and the appreciation of its flow loved reading your product perspectives and amazing fit! @itsfi  Beautiful as always! 

[itsfi]

Thank you @peculiarzmakeup! This was such a fun prompt 💗 and a good opportunity to think about what items I'd want preserved if I could. 

[danielledanielle]

I want that baaaaaaaagggg. @itsfi 

I feel like all of your items have been on a list, like "10 things to get at Sephora sale" or "my HGs this fall". Still don't know why Rhode isn't at Sephora.  I think it would do well here.

[itsfi]

@danielledanielle, I don’t recall where I picked up this bag but I wish I had more. If they’re on those lists, I’m glad I have them already so they don’t go OOS. 😝 

You know I’d be happy to see Rhode in Sephora. ♥️ It could be a very successful partnership for both. It will be interesting to see when (or if, though I think it’s more of a when) Rhode decides to go from direct to consumer to the retail sector. Hard to imagine Hailey Bieber and her team not having already had conversations with prospective retail partners or thought about what that means or what they might need/want in order to make that a reality.

Week 45 - The Sweater Weather Makeup Capsule In Review 

For the most part, the products from this week's capsule performed well, but there are no additional items to be added to the Top Shelf. There are a few items that I'm on the fence about and some that will be passed on, less so because of deficiencies in performance and more because I have plenty of that particular type of product that stands out more than the one from this week's capsule.

I like the coverage of Danessa Myricks Beauty Yummy Skin Blurring Balm Powder Universal enough to look into the tinted versions, but I have mixed feelings about its performance as a primer. I prefer applying this with a brush rather than my fingers. It does a nice job of blurring the appearance of pores on my skin but it also seemed to separate on certain parts of my face. I need to play with this one a little while longer.

My summer "tan" is almost completed faded; maybe another couple of weeks. I'll revisit a shade match of the PATRICK TA Major Skin Hydra-Luxe Luminous Skin Perfecting Foundation For Natural Glow then - for now, it seems like I've narrowed it down to either 8 Golden or 10 Neutral. This isn't one I need so I'm not feeling pressed to figure out a shade match before the sale ends. 

Jack Black NightMode™ Lip Treatment 0.25 oz / 7 mL takes a lot of effort to get the product out of the tube. I'm going to take a pair of scissors to this one and transfer the product into a travel size jar. If it gets a good deal of use, I'll keep my back up of this one; if not, the second tube will be donated.

💝  The cooling feeling of the Touch In Sol Pretty Filter Icy Sherbet Primer is nice and I can it being a plus in the warmer seasons, but I'm not so sure that's enough to make this silicone-based primer standout among my other primers to keep it around until then to test out that theory. This is being donated.

💝  SEPHORA COLLECTION Sephora Colorful® Eyeshadow 218 Shock Choc is a gorgeous shade swatched - it's a near perfect shade in my opinion but the fallout and color when applied to my lids (even with a primer) isn't great. This too will be donated.

🥊  GXVE BY GWEN STEFANI Line It Up Clean 24-Hr Gel Pencil Waterproof Eyeliner will, after much debate with myself, go back into the stash for a future battle.

That's 2 decluttered items for this week and for the month so far. 

Battle of the red lips will continue over the long weekend. I'm making my way through the remaining ones at a pretty good clip and making decisions about most of them fairly quickly, too. Should have an update after the holiday weekend and will post results to the Beauty Product Battles, Throw Downs and Showdowns thread.

[peculiarzmakeup]

I love the review aspect of this capsule, loved reading your assessment of what worked throughout the week! And I was just listening to the song sweater weather but I forgot who it’s by it’s very catchy! Love this your thoughtfulness is so appreciated, I was wondering how the blurring balm is interesting thoughts ❤️ @itsfi 

[itsfi]

Thank you @peculiarzmakeup! The DM blurring balm has been interesting. I really like that it is not drying on my skin and it does a nice job of blurring. I’m adding the tinted version to my list of things to consider for next year. Yes, next year. After this past wave of sales, I’m trying to be very selective about what I purchase - not sure how that plan will work out with the year end sales that will come! 😆 

[ather]

@itsfi  Great job!! Hmm too bad about the SC colour not playing well. And the JB lip treatment. Urg. Working to get it out is a pain! 

[itsfi]

@ather, lol, my thumb gets a work out trying to get the balm out of that tube! 😅

Week 41, Dynamic Duos

I don't remember the inspo, but it was lip combo heavy.  After reading the prompt 🤦🏽‍♀️, this explains the lip combos.  I think I used 2/3 of the lip combos.  This was also another Danessa Myricks Beauty Groundwork: Defining Neutrals - Palette For Eyes, Brows, Face & Lips week, but I also wanted to play with Danessa Myricks Beauty LIGHTWORK VI The Freedom Palette: Magnetic, Customizable, Stackable Palette w... , so it was a natural pairing.

This was the week where I realized the DIOR Forever Skin Perfect 24H Multi-Use Foundation Stick breaks me out 😭😭

This poor bag 🤣

Made it work, though

Week 40????

Week 39... Sephoria!!!  This was actually the start of it, getting my samples and minis in line. Not pictured, but I took Melt's Blueprint Stack, PMG mini palette (her first travel one where people whined about the packaging) and Kevyn Aucoin eye contour palette , 🤌🏽🤌🏽

 

[ather]

@danielledanielle  These lineups are great!!! 😊 

[danielledanielle]

Thank you, week 41 and 44 were a lot of fun @ather 

[peculiarzmakeup]

Beautiful capsules! Loved seeing what’s included in each! It’s so neat to see how each theme brings different products and fits! Love them all! I agree with @makeitup305 it’s really cool to see them in a sequence I love the unique picks! Wonderful job! @danielledanielle 

[makeitup305]

Great job capturing all your capsules @danielledanielle . It's neat to look back and see what you were choosing week to week.

[danielledanielle]

@makeitup305, thanks.  I enjoyed your travel glam& essentials.

[itsfi]

Week 42 - The tarte items and SC palette bring back memories. Your "fits" are fab! Is that Fenty Hollagram gloss I spy?! More memories. Goods one to be thankful for. 

Week 43 - Dang it! Your add-ons have reminded me that I have an Ami Cole catch up haul I forgot to post. <<eyes boxes and bags in the corner of the room>>  

Week 44 - I love the "face on face off" caption! And I love that Fenty bag - kudos for making it all fiiiiit. I know you've posted about it before but I'm super impressed with how you are using up all, and I mean, aaaaalll of that Becca skin tint. Go, girl!! 

Week 45 - Ahhhhh!! Becca skin tint - DONE!!! Awesome work, @danielledanielle with the Becca and also getting caught up! Gotta add fragrance to a sweater weather capsule. Do you wear By The Fireplace and Fall Cashmere separately or do you layer them?

[danielledanielle]

@itsfiThank you! I'm super proud to have finished two complexion products, the other is the Hourglass Mini Ambient® Lighting Powder Radiant Light ,  Hourglass Mini Ambient® Lighting Powder Luminous Lightwhich is showing godet.  I feel like I should get another, but I know I don't need it because that took years to get to do, and it's a mini.  What to do? What to do?

🤔🙃🛒🤸🏽‍♀️

The face off was fun, I ended up pairing those palettes together and getting some decent looks.  The ABH golds are losing some oomph, but everything else still performed well.

[itsfi]

It took you years to finish the Hourglass?!!! Hmmm.... 🤔 I was thinking about adding my mini Dim Light to next year's pan it! challenge. I wasn't expecting to finish in a year but years, you say @danielledanielle? Going to have to think through how many loooooong term projects like that I want to have for next year's group. 🤣

[danielledanielle]

Maybe a year with concurrent use? @itsfi This and a Laura Mercier Candlelight were in play at the same time, then forgotten about, then unearthed again and so on
