I picked some pretty ambitious I-just-want-to-see-some-progress kind of products for this project, so I don't have any new products finished up, but I do have some progress to show!
~ Tarte Tartelette In Bloom - When I added this palette, it was intended to be more of a last hurrah before I threw it out guilt-free. However, through this project I rediscovered how much I enjoy using this palette, mainly the mattes in the palette. I have a more noticeable dent in "jetsetter" and I actually used the dark colors in the far right column. At some point during the project I stopped using the sharp liner brush for my lower lash line shadow and started using a stubby smudger brush and I like the effect so much more. I'll be keeping this palette around - mostly as a companion palette for my all shimmer palettes - and I'm glad I took the time to get to know it better.
~ Becca shimmering skin perfecter pressed "Moonstone" - I re-pressed this after the last update and it's been much easier to use. Really thought I would be able to finish it, but I'm still working on it. I'll continue to use this, and hopefully you'll be seeing it in an empties post soon. I would repurchase this if I'm ever in a position to need a new highlighter again.
~ Rimmel lip liner "Wild Clover" - Similar amount of progress. Happy to have gotten use out of it, but also ready to use some of my other lip liners. They're all basically the same color, so it's really more out of fairness than color that I rotate them.
~ NARS Audacious lipstick "Anita" - My goal after the last update was to finish the "R" on the side of the bullet and make some progress on the "S" and I did that. I'm actually almost finished with the "S". Like "Moonstone" I'll probably keep using this so I can move it out. I recently looked at the "dupes in my vanity" section of Temptalia.com and I buy mostly slightly different variations of this shade. As much as I love it, I won't have any need to repurchase for a long while.
~ Bite multistick "Gelato" - I basically stopped using this after the last update, and the progress was minimal throughout the entire project, so I didn't bother taking a picture. Like all the blush I own, this will last forever. I don't think I'm ever going to be an expert blush panner.
~ Previously hit goals: L'Oreal infallible pro-matte foundation; NYX highlighter "Ritualistic"
And that's a wrap! I'm not jumping into another project, and I've kind of stopped doing weekly makeup baskets. I'm still using the basket itself, but I'm rotating things out as I decide I want something new for that category. There are a few things I'm trying to finish, but I'm not tracking progress, and that's working for me right now.
If I see another project I want to join, I will. So stay tuned.
