I watched Hindash’s video about his favorite concealers, and I picked out a few of his top recommendations to try; they’re in my basket waiting for 11/5 haha. BTW his favorite is Nars Radiant Creamy Concealer 🙂 I usually don’t wear concealer so this is new for me, just use my Dior Backstage foundation to conceal under my eyes a bit.

I’m also planning on picking up a couple of the small La Neige gift sets for friends, as well as the full size Grande gift set with the GrandeLash and GrandeBrow for myself. I’ve been using both of those for a couple of years now, and I love them ❤️

I’m contemplating getting the Nécessaire The Body Exfoliator - With Bamboo Charcoal Fragrance Free . I want a good body scrub and I really like that this comes in a tube rather than tub. Reviews appreciated if anyone has used this and Kopari Exfoliating Crush Scrub with Brown Sugar and Fine Coconut Shells or OUAI Cleansing Scalp & Body Sugar Scrub 8.8 oz/ 250 g

I got a sample of both scrubs - the drunk elephant and the necessaire, and I liked the smell of the DE one but overall I would recommend the necessaire! I have their body serum and it's amazing... So I was excited to see how the scrub was. Definitely not disappointed!

@lcss716 @Thank you for your thoughts!! I really like their body lotion and serum as well so good to hear the whole line is strong !

The #belif Aqua bomb cleanser is a great one ! I’ve been using it for years.

The Tatcha red lip mask is gorgeous and feels so good on lips. 

[2Jayne2]

I didn’t even know about the red Tatcha lip mask until I saw your comment!  I can’t wait to try it. 

[TonTonB]

Same!

[guyanesexgoldie]

That lip mask is everything 

[satinblaze]

You are looking at some good items. Love Pat Mcgrath!!!!!!!!

@Buootiful Oh, Ohhhhh! I thought the Tatcha  red lip mask was exclusive to their direct site! Thanks for putting it on my radar that it’s at Sephora now. Adding it to my basket for sure! 😁

[CookieGirl1]

@Buootiful Did you order the blush trio from PMG since she's having her sale?
