I couldn't find it at all listed on their website 😞 but I did get the new girl scout cookie Trefoils addition and it's so good too!! @peculiarzmakeup thanks sweet angel

[Mellmars1185]

@lmaster Excellent empties! I am always impressed by your masking!

[lmaster]

Thank you, I appreciate that! @Mellmars1185 😊

Oooh I can't believe Native Gummy Bear is no longer available, that scent is such a winner. @lmaster 😔 

Fantastic work this month, you have so many! 🎉

[lmaster]

I couldn't find it a few weeks ago on their site, looks like the girl scout scents took over @CynthieLu thank you lovely

June Empties

 ⬆️ All loves 

 The coffee scrub smells really good but it is sooo messy. The ordinary vitamin c powder is hard to mix and I didn’t like the way it felt. Both mascaras were good but not enough to replace my HG Ilia. YTTP vit c is ok. I did really like the GR toner and will most likely purchase it in the future. The Nuface silk cream is ok but nothing special.

@faeriegirl Wow 2 mascaras! Amazing job!!

[lmaster]

Good to know your thoughts, Great job @faeriegirl 

[caitbird]

@faeriegirl  great job with your empties! I am glad to know you liked the GR toner, I have a sample I am looking forward to trying once I work my way through some of my open skincare products.

[Mellmars1185]

@faeriegirl Great empties! I will have to check out the Ilia mascara.

[CynthieLu]

Wonderful haul of empties this month @faeriegirl 

I like that GR toner to!  🧡😊 It's so nice isn't it? 

[peculiarzmakeup]

Beautiful empties @faeriegirl  you presented these so well and I’m glad you shared your experience with the coffee scrub it’s always helpful to know these things! ❤️

Good job! @Samtian you know I'm so curious, I hope it was good whatever caused the halt

I hope everything works out well for you!

June Empties!

I LOVE the Patchology eye gels; right now when my allergies are going crazy these feel so soothing for my puffy, itchy eyes.

Spoiler

-The CosRx Niacinamide serum was really nice; I could see myself repurchasing that one
-I'm a little sad that Farmacy doesn't have any fruit-scented balms out right now.  This blueberry one had a very light scent but it was pleasant.  
-REALLY didn't like the LANEIGE Water Bank Cleansing Foam 5.29 oz / 150 g  
And the other products were fine.

Spoiler

An embarrassingly old Beauty Blender and an eyeliner brush (I use these cheap ones for nail polish cleanup) that needed to be replaced.

Spoiler

-The iNNBEAUTY PROJECT INNBEAUTY PROJECT X poppi Sips & Lips Limited Edition Glaze Duo  Raspberry glaze is so nice.  I do have a backup of that one but I won't be using it for awhile.
Everything else was fairly unremarkable.

Spoiler

Yes, I finished TWO cream bronzers!
-The #MAKEUP BY MARIO SoftSculpt Transforming Skin Enhancer® Medium is a major fav.  I was gifted my first one from @TeamBIC in gratis and this is the second one that I've finished.  And yes, I repurchased it again so my new one is already getting put to use.
-The Tarte Maneater bronzing stick in Sundown s almost an exact dupe for the Rare Beauty by Selena Gomez Warm Wishes Effortless Bronzer Sticks Happy Sol  , both in shade and in formula.  I enjoyed it but I'm not planning ( to repurchase it.

Spoiler

Declutters:
-The Mac Glow Play blush is super-pretty but I bought it when the blushes were first launched (four or five years ago now?) and the formula has finally dried up to the point that it's unusable.  
-This polish from Polished for Days is my favorite polish of all time and it's hard to tell but I almost used it up.  Unfortunately the remainder is so stiff and gloopy that even a bunch of polish thinner didn't revive it so I'm tossing it.  I'm thrilled to report that I had the wherewithall to secure a backup of this one but I'll be devastated when it, too, is gone.
-Would you believe that this was my first Maybelline Superstay Matte liquid lipstick?  It's also going to be my last.  I'd always heard that these were bulletproof, budge proof, and meal proof and I'm here to tell you that they're NOT.  The shade of this was perfection but the formula wore off surprisingly quickly and it looked horrible as it faded.  

Spoiler

Yes.  Just yes.

I am super impressed that you've gone through 2! of the MbM bronzers, @CookieGirl1 !! I am still working on my first one 🫣. Fabulous empties!!
