Girl, You Only Have One Face

First off, I'm sorry the pictures are upside down. I tried to fix it, but I honestly don't have the energy to fight with these things before work. On a positive note, I met all of my goals from last month! Here's the palette as a whole: You can see I've made some dips, but the pans are hard to see. Below I'll post a zoomed in picture so you can see the pans in Paris, Marina, and 5th Ave. They're not huge, but they're there! One of the looks I really loved this past month was to use Lula as a transition shade, 5th Ave on the inner part of my eyelid, and Violeta on the outer part of the lid and worked into the crease. It was really fast to do and looked polished. The mattes and warmer colors have been ignored for the first few months, so my goal for the next month is to make some dips. I specifically want to see some use out of Violeta, Isabel, Kim, and Muse. (Also have right side up pictures for the next update. Baby steps.)

As I mentioned in my last empties post, I'll be moving to a new city at the end of the summer to be with my fiance as he starts his new job. Let's be honest, I have a product problem, and I don't want to pack up all of this crap. I'm going to make an effort to use up as much as I can before I have to do that. I started with a big 'ol list, but now it seems more like it will be a rolling project 10 pan of sorts. I'm not going to do a super intense measure and take pictures of every single thing kind of project with this. I just want to put it out there to have some accountability for the things I want to work on. Here's the list I've been keeping in my phone: As you can see, I've already started doing this. You probably saw all of the checked-off products in the empties post. I did take pictures of the candle and perfume since I can measure it on the packaging. I forgot to mark the Ole Henriksen spray, but I'll try to include that in my n...

I went after a lot of my mini products with a vengeance this past month. My fiance participated in the Residency Match and we learned that we will be moving to another city over the summer. There's so much I want to use up so I don't have to pack it (project coming soon, probably later today). Without further ado, here are my empty products: Top - yes, I used up that brush. That brush has seen some things. May it rest in peace. ~ L'Oreal Infallible Pro-Matte in 101 Classic Ivory - This has a decently skin-like finish on me with a good color match once it oxidizes. I have already repurchased. ~ Maybelline Master fix wear-boosting setting spray - This is okay. I don't notice a huge increase in the longevity of my makeup, but I would buy it again since it's a good price. ~ Smashbox photo finish foundation primer - This gives a nice smooth finish for my foundation application.
