@WinglessOne I know I know!!! totally disgusts me to see products being touched that are not samples 🙄 like... really??

3 Empties: 1) Pur Blush - I got this early this year in Mar/April. It is such a vibrant pink and goes so well with my skin tone. Sadly it only has a 6 month expiration date and I noticed a deterioration on the performance. I did enjoy this over the summer and will probably pick one up again although because the life line is so short, I’m going to wait until I empty out a couple of blushes that I own first before I pick this up again. Other than that if you like keeping your blush simple this was a great buy with just the perfect amount for 6 months 2) Fenty Brow Pencil - I’m glad I picked this up to try it. It’s always good to venture off and try new things once in a while. I didn’t hate it but it’s not for me. I will probably not pick this up as I need more coverage. You really have to build up with this pencil. I think this is great for someone who has thicker brows and need minimal fill. I’ll be going back to Anastasia Brow Wiz. I also realized that I liked the spoolie better over the brush paddle. 3) Huda concealer - I love that you get so much product out of this tube. It’s very creamy and has great coverage. It does crease and I think it’s better suited for someone with smoother texture under eyes. If I pick this up again it would be for contouring but for under eyes I’ll definitely be going back to NARS as that concealer always has my back. 😂

Wow! Great job on the empties @thatjedininja! 🙂 Helpful to hear how the Fenty compared to ABH Brow Wiz.

@thatjedininja  Good job on panning the blush! 

I’ve only ever panned one blush (NARS Outlaw) because it was the only one I owned at the time. Unfortunately, Outlaw got me hooked on NARS’s other powder blushes; nowadays I have so many, I might never pan one again. 😄 Not even with my routine of monthly (or directly after a viral or bacterial illness) alcohol spritz + wipedowns of all my blushes.

Hi @thatjedininja ,

I was very curious about the Fenty Eyebrow pencil! Great set of empties! 

Best Wishes,

I don't ever recall panning a single blush in my life. They seem to last forever- my fair skin needs only a smidge I find. Yet here you are, panning a blush in 6 months. I bow down. @thatjedininja 

[thatjedininja]

@l8totheparty hahah! It was the only blush I had.  I tend to buy these in singles instead of palettes because I never use the whole palette.

@thatjedininja Great empties! That blush shade is gorgeous! 

Best,

@thatjedininja great job!! I really need to pan some makeup 🤦

[thatjedininja]

@lmaster  lol...I feel you! I have a few more things from last year that are about to expire and trying to get my $$'s worth but also don't want to torture myself. hahaha, some of the items I just have a love hate relationship with.

Clinique was meh, eyeliner dried out quickly. Ten toner is not my fav, my skin likes glycolic better. Paulas choice was thick and you place on top of other skincare and I wasn’t sure it was staying on. Prefer different versions of vit C. L Occitane Sejm was just ok, I didn’t like too cool for school.

Loves- all are loves. Won’t repurchase the lancome lip

Likes- by terry was discontinued but I probably wouldn’t repurchase because pricey. Origins moisturizer was spf is nice but prefer mineral sunscreens. Declutters- nars, lancome are at least five years old so time to toss!

Meh- didn’t like the PTR cleansing butter smelled weird to me, lancome mascara mini was dried out otherwise I like it, the ordinary was fine I prefer salicylic acid in a different form, l occitane was ok would purchase.

I love the Belif Aqua Bomb Sleeping Mask. It's my favorite sleeping mask. <3333

Hi @jen81 ,

This is a great set of empties. I loved the Farmacy Meltaway Cleansing Balm more than I thought I would! I just started using the Ren Toner and so far, it seems to work on my oily skin. 

Best Wishes,

Janean

That is such a great sheet mask @sockmagnet. I tried a mini version of the Bio-Oil and loved it; I have a few more products to get through and then I'll pick up a full size.

Weekly trashLoves

I really do like what I've tried of the Volition Beauty Strawberry-C Brightening Serumbut I've seen quicker results withFARMACY - Very Cherry Bright 15% Clean Vitamin C Serum with Acerola CherryLike

I really liked the Missha mask, but the sheet itself is so hugeDidn't work for me

The Nacific was a major fail for me, it was way too sticky for my preference, and I think this SC coconut mask, had to be an older one because it barely had any serum on the mask, and I have previously used the same mask and it was fine
