August & September

Empties - 54 (with 27 being foils)

Destashes - 24

All items were great but the standouts are listed below:
The lavender espresso candle was a favourite - Inspired by @lmaster 
The Nécessaire The Body Wash Hinoki - Resurfacing Treatment Cleanse With 6% Acids + Resveratrol 8.4 oz /... was nice. It helped clear up the acne on my back
OLEHENRIKSEN Mini Truth Juice™ Daily Cleanser 2.0 oz/ 60 mL was a subscription *Thanks to @TeamBIC * I loved the scent and how my skin felt clean and nourished after using 

Spoiler

Rare Beauty by Selena Gomez Mini Perfect Strokes Universal Volumizing Mascara Black is one of my favourite mascaras recently. It did not transfer and I really liked how the brush seperated my lashes
Charlotte Tilbury Mini Airbrush Flawless Setting Spray 1.1 oz/ 34 ml - I was using this after cream/liquid makeup and before applying powders. I really like the scent. I have some other setting sprays that I want to tey before repurchasing.
Verb Moringa + Jojoba Hair Treatment Oil 1 oz/ 30 mL - It was good, but I think my favourite is still the Ouai hair oil

Not pictured Clarins Lip Comfort Hydrating Oil Pitaya (mini)

I tried lots of foils thanks to the Capsule Makeup Collection Challenge . I ended up discovering some new loves. The Glossier Glossier You Eau de Parfum 1.7 oz / 50 mL eau de parfum spray sample smelled so good I ended up buying a full size. The travel size came in the Sephoria swag bag which I am grateful for ☺️

Spoiler

Above are destashes. The NYX primer did not impress me and I have other primers I prefer more. The lipsticks are all expired. The nail polish formula is passed its prime. The makeup brush bristles started coming loose. Thanks to the Capsule Challenge I was able to try out the concealers again and now know for sure they don't work for me. The PT eyebrow product dried out. The Marc Jacobs mascara was dried out when I opened it. The Nars mascara transfered on me in less than 2 hours with setting powder under my eyes and on my eyelids.

Last but not least, the empties that I used up at Sephoria! I was happy to be done with these to make room for new goodies. These were all loves.

@Mellmars1185  awesome empties! Great job getting through everything, and especially all those foils, wow! I really have to try to go through some more of my foils, I have been focused on working through some full sizes lately so the foils haven't gotten much attention. Also, thanks for reminding me to check out Capsule Makeup Collection Challenge  thread again, it's been a while since I participated and it's such a great way to get me to test and try, and sometimes destash, various products!

[Mellmars1185]

@caitbird Thank you! The Capsule challenge and a recent trip helped me get through some foils/sample sizes ☺️. It is a fun challenge that gets me out of my comfort zone and shop my stash! I like being able to mix things up. Otherwise, I tend to reach for the same products until I finish them.

@Mellmars1185  I hear you, I am the same way with tending to reach for the same products most of the time just out of habit, so it is always good to mix things up!
