Weekly Makeup Basket - January 27, 2019


Welcome to another neutral week. This time with TWO neutral palettes. This picture just looks so...beige. The dirty Beauty Blender doesn't seem to be helping. Avert thine eyes.

Face products:
~ Bobbi Brown skin foundation stick "00 alabaster" - not my favorite, but I like having the stick for travel so I don't have to limit my liquids as much. I'm going to try applying it with a sponge instead of a brush this week, so we'll see if I like it any better that way.
~ Sephora Collection bright future gel concealer "04 buttercream" - I can see streaks on the side of the packaging and less product is coming out on the doefoot, so I imaging I'm getting close to the end of this. I think I'll be a little disappointed to see this one go.
~ Fenty pro filtr primer - decent primer. It's solid enough that there's a mountain of product around the edge of the bottle, with a hole in the middle. So I can't use the pump anymore - I have to scoop it out with the stick at the end of the pump. Dislike.
~ UD All Nighter setting spray
~ Tarte smooth operator setting powder

Cheek products:
~ Becca SSP "Moonstone"
~ Hoola Lite bronzer
~ Bite multistick "Gelato"

Eye products:
~ Tarte Tartelette in Bloom
~ UD Naked palette
~ UD waterline eye pencil "Walk of Shame"
~ L'Oreal eyeliner "highlight"
~ Clinique Pretty Easy eyeliner "01 black"
~ Dior Pump N Volume mascara

Brow products:
~ Benefit Gimme Brow "03"
~ ABH Brow Wiz "Medium Brown"

Lip products:
~ NARS Audacious lipstick "Anita"
~ Rimmel lip liner "Wild Clover"

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:...
