Week 36 Recap - The Workhorses Makeup Capsule

Coming in early with my recap for this week. I'm looking to be sans makeup for one day over the weekend and then playing with some newness another day.

TL;DR: Three declutters and two undecided items from this week’s throwback edition of the workhorses makeup capsule. Brushes and foundation will be re-homed; and the fate of the Stila cream blushes will be reconsidered another day. 

💝💝 - I haven’t use these 2 Real Techiniques brushes and don’t see myself reaching for them, they’re larger than I prefer for the space for which they're intended. I considered repurposing them for another part of my face, but I a healthy array of brushes as it is. I’ll be donating these two beauties to a women’s shelter or an organization that assists women with their rentry into the workforce. 👍

🏡  - The shade of the IT Cosmetics Mini CC+ Cream Full Coverage Color Correcting Foundation with SPF 50+ Light is off for me even in the summer. To think this was a shade match for me decades ago. Good ol’ sunblock at work. 😆 If I can find a good shade match though, I can see this being a candidate for a spot in my ultimate capsule collection, in the full coverage foundation slot. I have two mini tubes of this (??!!) - this one I'll try to find someone to re-home it to; the other, unopen one, will find a home along with the two Real Techniques brushes.

🔬🤷🏻‍♀️❓ I’m not sure about these Stila Convertible Cheek Color Compacts. I like them - the shades Lillium and Magnolia are both in my comfort zone and colors that are just a little different than the handful of blushes I do have. I'll plan to rotate these through my routine throughout the rest of the year and see if I can decide whether these stay or go.
