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.

Healthy Habits Challenge - February 2020

I have the habit of spending too much of my money on makeup, and spending too much of my time browsing for makeup and consuming makeup-related media. To counteract this, I make myself "earn" my makeup budget by doing things that are better for my mental and physical health. Here's how I did for the month of February: Purchases: ~ I bought a birthday gift for a friend at Ulta - does not come out of budget ~ I repurchased my husband some dental floss (does not come out of this budget) at Sephora and got a Bobbi Brown lip gloss as a point perk - $0 ~ I purchased a full size of YSL Libre perfume since I loved the sample so much (giving myself grace on this purchase this month) and got the UD brow enhancer brow gel in "Brunette Betty" on sale (counts as a replacement since I destashed my other brow gel when it went bad) ~ ABH Jackie Aina palette - it was on sale at Sephora - I used a $20 gift card so I spent $14.10 Books read ($1 per 100 pages) ~ Cress  by M...

November Empties (& 2 bonus pans!)

From top left: Ole Henriksen Sheer Transformation moisturizer (deluxe sample from Sephora Play): this was lightweight and didn't make me feel greasy. I would consider repurchasing this in the full size. Boscia charcoal sheet mask : it was relaxing to do a sheet mask. I guess my face felt softer afterwards? Might repurchase, but there are probably cheaper options out there. Elizabeth & James Nirvana bourbon sample: I love this scent. It's dark and sweet and kind of vanilla. I've already purchased a rollerball of this. Atelier cologne Sud Magnolia sample: this was nice at first. It's kind of an androgynous scent that was a little too strong for me after a while. I would not repurchase this in a larger size. Boscia makeup breakup cleansing oil sample: this was decent at taking off my eye makeup, but I wasn't a huge fan of the white cast it left over my eyes when it got in them. I probably would not purchase a larger size. Lancer face polish foil sample:...
