@itsfi  I think for me, I tend to put all of my skincare on quickly before make up.  I don't give it a lot of time to sink in.  I think that may be part of the issue. I also have worn this the last two days and like you... stung the crap outta my eyes!  Maybe I need to do more of a pat in than rub so that it stays away from my eyes and doesn't make my foundation sit too funny.

@missjeanie, I definitely make sure to apply the Supergoop more carefully around my eyes. I think you're on to something with letting the SPF sit a bit longer. I loved the radiance it gave my skin but it is a smidge more high maintence than my other sunblock, and a little more effort than I'm used to putting in - at the moment, my morning skincare and makeup routine takes 5 minutes or less to get through. 👍 

When I used the Supergoop bioretinol spf, my favorite bases to use with it were Sephora Best Skin Ever Foundation or Westman Atelier Vital Skin Foundation Stick or Charlotte Tilbury Beautiful Skin Radiant Skin Concealer. Something about those products and the Supergoop played well together - in the application, the finished look and longevity/wearability.

@itsfi Ohhhh I have the SC and the CT, I'll try those out this week.  I also think that the extra moisture may have played with the setting powder I've used as well.  Letting it all soak in a bit may be key.

@itsfi Ooh wow you did so good!

[itsfi]

Awww, thank you @Samtian! Taking part in the pan challenge for the last few years has really helped to not just work through my project pan items but with all my stash. 👍 It's also one of the single greatest reminders to be selective with my purchases; er, or more selective than I have been. 😂

[Samtian]

@itsfi Ooh yeah I understand that!

[lmaster]

You did amazing!!! Getting through a foundation 🙌 @itsfi 

[itsfi]

Thank you @lmaster! Oh gosh, it took me probably the better part of 4+ years to finish that Armani foundation. I love it, but it's like a never ending bottle. I'm sure that is well past its shelf life, but it passed the smell test and there was nothing off about it based on eye sight or performance so I just kept working my way through it. It's a HG foundation for me. 💖 I've actually been inspired by seeing @blackkitty2014's foundation pans on the Pan It! - 2023 Challenge - love that she uses her luxe foundations and uses them up.

You’re just being modest @itsfi . You did amazing. I try to only have 1 foundation or skin tint at a time so I can finish it. I wish I can say the same about eyeshadow or face palette 😘

Candles must take sooo long to empty @Mellmars1185 great job on your empties!

[Mellmars1185]

@CynthieLu They don't take too long for me. I find these ones burn quite quicl bevause they are 3 wick. If it is grey outside, i always have a cable burning. I think it is for comfort lol

[CynthieLu]

Candles are very calming and soothing I think so too @Mellmars1185 my cat is not trustable around them thou...

Gosh this one's too curious for her own good.  Do yours leave them alone?

[Mellmars1185]

@CynthieLu Mine don't go near the candles. They used to be more curious kittens when they were younger though 🐱🐱

[itsfi]

Awesome work @Mellmars1185. Those sound like such good smelling hand soaps and candles! 😃

[Mellmars1185]

@itsfi Thank you! It seems like I go through more soap and candles these days than beauty products!

[Samtian]

@Mellmars1185 Great job!!

[Mellmars1185]

[lmaster]

April empties and declutter:39 (197/600)

* I could not make the DM work for me in any way, if I used it on my face, my forehead looked dry and if I used it on my lids, it was too oily 🤷 

* The Too faced chocolate gold palette is not aging well, I swatched all the shades and yes they were pigmented, however I noticed that the shades were flaking terribly, I didn't even want to take a chance

* These were project pan items I was happy to get through

* The only repurchase so far is the Bioderma, I may repurchase the YYTP mist at some point 

* kopari has already been repurchased, no to the others

* Farmacy products would be repurchased, the ordinary buffet will be repurchased 

* the Cosrx master patches are the best I've tried! Already repurchased, I didn't like the perfume as much as I initially did, no repurchase
