Finish 6 by Christmas - Intro

One of the Youtubers I watch regularly, LuciaTepperBeauty, is doing this as a collab, and I want to join in. I'm not at all part of the official collab, I just wanted to give credit as I follow along from my little corner of internet.

Here's a pic of the whole group, then I'll go through where I stand on all of them individually.


1. I've been working on my ABH Master Palette by Mario all year, but I want to focus on "Bronx" through the end of the year. It's the only shimmer I've worked on in this palette that doesn't yet have pan, and I think it's a great fall color. My goal is just to hit pan on this shade.

2. Buxom mini gloss "Dolly" - I think I can finish this little guy.

3. Colourpop supershock shadow "Fluffy" - I bought this around Christmas last year, so it's starting to get older, and kind of flaky. I'd like to see pan on this by the end of the project.

4. L'Oreal liner "highlight" - I use this in the inner corners of my eyes, and it makes a great base for any light shimmer shade I want to put on top. I feel like I've been working on this forever, so I'd like to see it gone.

5. Bite lipstick "Pepper" - this is a dual-ended mini with "Bronze" on the other side, and it's from holiday collection a few years ago so it's starting to get old. I only want to finish the "Pepper" side and then I'll call it done.

6. Too Faced HangoveRx primer mini - I want to finish this. This is probably the last individual picture I'll post of this one since the packaging is opaque and the formula is too thin to show progress by squeezing the packaging.

I'll post the next update in November. By that time, I'm hoping I will have been able to finish the primer. I also want to finish the lip gloss, but lip products tend to be a little bit harder for me.

December 2018 Empties

Y'all. This month looks pitiful compared to past months. I suspect it's because I've mainly been using full-sized skincare so I'm not blazing through as much as I have been. ~ It cosmetics secret sauce moisturizer sample - was a little too much for my oily skin. would not repurchase. ~ Mario Badescu herbal rehydrating serum sample set - this was a gel moisturizer, so it's no surprise that I liked this one. Might try it again in the future, but I have a lot of moisturizer to go through first. ~ 2 Sephora samples of Commodity Gold perfume - this is a warm, sweet scent that I really enjoy and I currently have a travel-size spray. ~ Living Proof perfect hair day shampoo - if you remember when I finished the conditioner, you'll recall that I hated this pair of shampoo and conditioner and I used it up as a shaving cream. Would not repurchase. ~ Estee Lauder sumptuous infinite mascara - this has a plastic bristle brush, which I normally don't like, but...

Empties - June 2019

This past month, I came for my skincare foil samples with a vengeance. So this empties is, as always, mostly skincare with a little bit of makeup and haircare. ~ Exuviance performance peel - This is a two step kind of deal with an activated pad and a neutralizer pad. This sample contained one use, and I didn't see much of a change. I'm also in my 20s and am probably not the target audience. Wouldn't repurchase at this time. ~ boscia Clarifying Detox mask - Clay mask that dries on your face - meh. My skin felt maybe a little cleaner, but no other improvements. It was nice to use, but I probably wouldn't buy this again. I bought it at TJ Maxx a while ago, so goodness knows how old it is. ~ Mango Coconut Guava lotion - I have two sets of mini lotions like this from my family. So you can expect to see more little bottles like this. It smelled nice and has a thin texture, which is nice for the summer. I have seven more of these, so no need to repurchase anything righ...

Pan that Palette 2018 Finale

My goal for 2018 was to pan the Anastasia Beverly Hills Master Palette by Mario. It's a limited edition palette from Christmas 2016, and it was a gift from my fiance (now husband). Since it's LE, I was hesitant to use particular colors and, to be honest, the palette as a whole - what if I run out and can't use it again?! Once you see my year-end progress, it will become clear that those fears were completely unfounded. Here's where I started the year: You can see some nice dips, and there are clearly shades I enjoy. There are no pans. Here's how I ended the year (please excuse the lighting): Over the course of the year I hit pan on: NYC, Kim, Muse, Marina, Lula, 5th Ave, Bronx, and Paris. I didn't have any goals for using Hollywood or Claudia. I didn't make much visible progress on Isabel or Violeta. A few notes about my makeup usage habits - I work three 12-hour shifts a week as a nurse. At the start of the year, I worked night shif...
