Favorites:
Born to Run palette - such diversity, love it.
Peter Thomas Roth Un-Wrinkle Turbo™ Line Smoothing Toning Lotion - seriously the name is redic but what it has done to my face is fabulous!
UD Sheer Slowburn - one of my favorite lippies, I wear it year round


Empties:
NYX Retractable Eyeliner in Brown - already repurchased, it's a staple and gets used frequently.

Favorites:
-Maybelline Full N Soft mascara. I rediscovered it when my CG clump crusher started irritating my eyes and I'm back in love. I feel like a younger version of myself in it, somehow.

-Benefit Dandelion blush
-MUFE Artist shadows
-One of the Bite lipsticks I made at the lip lab, it's the more everyday color.
-L'Oreal infallible eyeshadow single in Brass Knuckles. I think it was discontinued, I got it on clearance at Target a while ago.


Empties:
Paula's Choice Skin Recovery SPF 30 moisturizer. Already repurchased, but I'm trying out a different facial sunscreen right now (Neutrogena SheerZinc SPF 50)

Favorites:

Too Faced Born This Way foundation
A TF blush in a pink color that I found in my stash (I'm too lazy to get up to see what color it is)
Laura Gellar peach Gelato Swirl highlighter
Laura Gellar baked blush and highlight palette from Ulta
UD HD lip loss in Fireball
Dior Show mascara
DE C Firma
DE Framboos
DE Peekee bar (my skin does amazingly well when I use this)
Laneige water sleeping mask

Empties:

Laura Gellar hydrating Spackle primer (have backups)
UD all nighter setting spray (was using up my stash and filled the empty bottle with LG Spackle primer spray since the LG sprayer is not good)
DE Peekee bar (have backups)

Favorites:

I've been mixing the TF White peach palette with the Norvina palette. It expands the matte shades that make the norvina palette more work-friendly.
Joico Color Butters- my vacation hair is still hanging around, which was a bit of a challenge to hide when I had an important meeting last week, but for a temp color treatment it is pretty amazing staying power.


Empties:
Lash Paradise mascara
Skinfood eye cream * 18 in 2018 item
It's a 10- Potion 10 hair mask

This month is the least amount of empties that I've had all year. It's so weird. I wouldn't repurchase any of the empties.

OG Naked palette
Bobbi Brown Brownie lipstick
Bobbi Brown Telluride blush and lipstick
Benefit Rockstar blush

Empties:

UD Rockstar pencil liner (will repurchase)

[marissap]

Empties:
Algenist vit c serum (also a favorite)

Favorites:
IT cosmetics cc cream - tried for first time and really like
This is totally nuts but- NuFACE. I bought during Nordstrom sale and I like it. I can’t really tell if it’s doing anything. Also sort of an empty because I used one tube of gel already
Tom ford eye quad- I think the shade is nude something. It’s a bit shimmery for me but really like it

I forgot about the empty IT CC illumination - I won’t repurchase. It’s just as good as the original but it’s NMS and I feel just this side of disco ball when I wear it and as such do a lot of matte powder.

Yes, that stuff makes me look like I set my foundation with a highlighter powder!

Super excited to finish the Rimmel Stay Matte Powder and I used about half of both concealers but they were looking so dry I just decluttered them. I had backups of all the full sized skin care except for the snail cream. Not a bad month for empties. 

Favorites:
Huda Desert Dusk palette
Elf Blush in Glow
Covergirl mascara in the green tube
Josie Marian Vibrancy concealer
