SEPTEMBER RANDOMS

[secretlyevil]

[ESF]

This is a fun picture! I love vampy lipstick.

We move in less than four weeks. This weekend, I had packed most of my cosmetics. I kept out a small assortment to use until after the move...Naked 1, the Balm blushes, a couple smaller palettes/quad, and a few other odds and ends.

I did pack everything in a plastic tub, so if I need to pull out anything, I can do so somewhat easily. But I needed to just the stuff out of my bathroom to feel like I was making progress.

I still need to sort through the lip stuff, but I think I might take all of them in the car because I'm afraid they'll melt or leak in the moving van.

It is 9/6 and I haven't worn makeup all week (sick over the weekend and WFH all week) so I have not played with all my fall lovelies. WTF is wrong with me?

[calico]

I wish I could pull off a vampy eye/lip look like that. It just makes me look dead because I'm so pale.

I keep waffling between wanting to buy the Jackie Aina ABH palette and telling myself that the last thing I need is more makeup.

[Pippin]

The more I see the UD Naked Honey palette the more I want it. I’m thinking of purging some older palettes to justify it. I’m still looking for a good like swampy green palette to.

I just got a few things from the Besame Cosmetics Sleeping Beauty collection. It's my favorite Disney movie, so I had to. I got a beautiful hand mirror, a lipstick that is a replica of the color Aurora's lips were in the movie, a lipstick that's a replica of Maleficent's lip color in the movie, and a blush and highlighter palette because the case was so freaking gorgeous. I'm wearing the Sleeping Beauty Pink lipstick today and loving it so far.

Anyone else see the new LM caviar sticks that are coming? I'm loving that pink color.

Pics?

The LM caviar stick set last holiday was a complete win for me. So good. I could definitely go for a few more colors.

Yep, loving those!
Do we know when they'll be in stock? My birthday is in a couple weeks and these would be great to pick up.

ETA: never mind, looks like they are available in store

Question for the caviar stick fans: Are these basically like a grown-up version of colourpop cream shadows? How long do they last on the lid? How long does a stick last before it dries out?

I'm getting tired of my colourpop shadows drying out within 5-6 months. Yes, they are cheap, but seriously?

yep, that's a great description.  creamy, easy one color look.  i swipe on, blend the edge with my finger, done in 15 seconds.  i'm still working on the set i got from last year's holiday collection, i think i got it during the november sale time and they are still just as good texture wise as the day i opened them.  

this set repeats two colors from last year, which is kinda a bummer, but moonlight is one of my faves (it's really great sparkle without actual chunks of glitter), so i'll check my progress on the stick, it might be almost gone.  i love the amethyst too, but don't use it quite as often.  maybe will pass on to my sister or SIL.

Those are gorgeous! Definitely will be picking them up. 


calico, They last all day for me, I mean 7 am to 11 pm.  I've never had one dry out, in fact I still have a little bit left in a mini from 2 years ago and it's just fine.  I've been through 3 full sized rose ones and they've always been fine to the very end.

For anyone who wants the Tarte Paaarty blush today, Sephora price matched Ulta and it’s also on sale for 14.50 (even though the site doesn’t say that color is on sale).

[tiramisu]

The manicure I got today was totally inspired by the picture for this month's thread. I picked up Chanel Rouge Noir polish and now I have a fabulous dark burgundy manicure.

This new Benefit blush is so freakin pretty. I hate their blush packaging, but I do love their blush formula.

I’m trying to recreate this look. What eyeshadow would you recommend for the lid?

[kittycatlove]

blondemoment123, the crease color looks a lot like MAC all that glitters, but the lid looks to be a bit lighter, not sure what I would use for that pop, maybe MAC nylon?

[Pippin]

blondemoment123 You could dupe that look with the TF Chocolate Bon Bons palette if you have it.

[secretlyevil]

blondemoment123 - I think any neutral palette would have something very similar for you to pull off the look.

Did anybody else order the donkey milk 3d cream limited edition release a million years ago when fiddy snails posted about it? IT FINALLY CAME! Along with a sleeping mask and a nice handful of sheet masks. Haven't tried it yet though

So, I was today years old when I discovered that the Nars foundation pump will lock by turning the little pump head.

🤦‍♀️ And to think I bought other foundations to travel with because I thought the pump couldn’t lock.

So UD’s new naked honey palette. I’m very meh about it. Today I saw one picture and was briefly intrigued and then went back to my original opinion, there isn’t enough differentiation to really do many unique looks with the palette. With the exception of the green, all the colors look way too similar.

I saw Leesha's (xsparkage) review of it, and she actually really liked it.  It's making me consider it.  I need to see it in person to decide.

I started my new bottle of foundation— Armani Luminous Silk. I love it! It’s sheer and build able, light and perfect.
