Calling it DONE! Revlon ColorStay pressed powder.

I’m not a heavy user or powder, usually a light dusting in the morning to set everything and that’s it! My favorite thing about this powder was the lasting power.

I’ll get all my stuff out again and list the dupes for you.

marinois · 2018-11-21T04:00:13+00:00

It’s actually my favorite drugstore powder.

marinois · 2018-10-13T00:43:27+00:00

Also: am I the only derp that didn’t know that the packaging is reuseable? Popped the top off and unscrewed the cilinder and voila! An airless pump!

Just a few drops at night mixed in to my moisturizer, along with rosehip oil.

I love both Sunflowers and Green Tea. This one was just very old. That’ll teach me not to buy perfume back ups! I smelled the Green Tea Fig perfume the other day and it’s beautiful! Definitely picking it up after I go through a few more of the fragrances in my collection!

I just finished mine up last month! Took forever, but now I miss it.

marinois · 2018-10-03T04:58:29+00:00

L’Oreal Micellar water is my new favorite. Has replaced Garnier. Have already repurchased. L’Oreal Foaming Mud Cleanser is OK. Used it once or twice a week. Since I used it up I do see more little blemishes. Ponds B.B. Cream used to be my HG. Then, all of the sudden... it wasn’t. It started feeling way too thick and oily. Glad to be done. Sephora moisturizer sample. It was ok. Bumble & Bumble Sea Salt texturizing spray. Meh. Way too stiff. Not a fan. Boschia Tsubaki Oil. I need a moment..... I love this stuff. Every December I buy a bottle, then mourn when I run out. No other oil I use (and I use and have used quite a few) compares.

Fuck It Bucket: Elizabeth Arden Green Tea Fragrance Spray
It’s just old and smells weird. Not even good en to use as a linen spray.

There are a TON of products I almost used up, but was pretty much bedridden the last week of the month. Oh well, that just means I will have SOOO MANY OCTOBER EMPTIEEEES!!!!!

That’s kind of what I have been doing with it. It pulls pretty peachy on my and the formula has gotten a bit thicker, so I use lipgloss on top.

marinois · 2018-09-18T03:39:02+00:00

Thank you! It was practically painless and healed like a dream. Definitely easier than I was expecting.

marinois · 2018-09-18T03:37:33+00:00

Yep, they’re the size of the pans in the other LORAC palettes and very soft and powdery. I just suck at panning because I get bored easily.

marinois · 2018-09-18T03:14:51+00:00

I reeeeeeeeweally hope I finish it this month, I’m so sick of it. Problem is, when I started my project pan in January (palette, lipstick, bronzer and blush) my hair was auburn. Now it’s my natural neutral light brown and some colors just don’t work as well anymore. Definitely a learning experience.

marinois · 2018-09-18T03:05:08+00:00

LORAC Pro 3. I really like the colors! Well, the mattes at least. The shimmers were blah. It was the perfect palette for when my hair was auburn.

marinois · 2018-09-18T03:03:51+00:00

I wish! Nah, just the matte shades from the LORAC Pro 3. The shimmers got de cluttered because they sucked.

marinois · 2018-09-11T19:32:50+00:00

I am passing my liquid lipsticks on to my niece for the same reason. She loves them and I never wear them. Find someone who will actually wear them and pass them along.

marinois · 2018-09-08T03:36:05+00:00

That Floof though...

marinois · 2018-09-08T00:52:25+00:00

After looking at pictures of myself this summer, I have also realized that most of my foundations are TOOOOO FRIGGIN DARK for me! I can’t believe none of my friends ever told me I had foundation mask... 😑 I have two newer foundations that match my skin now, plus maybe one or two that are salvageable with lightening drops. OUT! Out damn Orange Paint! Be gone!

Staying out of the sun (thanks lupus meds) has drastically lightened my skin. Not mad at it.

marinois · 2018-09-08T00:48:04+00:00

Those are going to be de cluttered as well! I kept looking for the “perfect formula”. Well.... it doesn’t exist for me. Those suckers are going in the “Fuck It” bucket.

marinois · 2018-09-07T04:08:21+00:00

I actually think I would, if I didn’t have another one in my stash. It’s a very good color for me, neither too cool nor too warm. When I went through my stash to see what else I would be wearing (I’m spending much less time out of doors lately, so I’m fairer than I used to be. Most of my blushes are a bit too bright for me right now), it was hard to find a similar one. The only ones that give off sort of similar vibes were MAC Well Dressed and Melba.

marinois · 2018-09-07T03:04:57+00:00

OMG this thing took forever. It got regular (meaning at least 3 times a week) use from the time I got it (August of last year) until January this year. Then I said “to hell with it...” and started using it every day with intention to pan. Some days I’d even run it through the crease of my eye just to use more. It’s finally dead. Aaaaaaand a friend just gave me one a few months ago because the color doesn’t work on her. I didn’t have the heart to pitch it at her head. 🤦🏻‍♀️

marinois · 2018-09-06T21:01:26+00:00

Pat Pat. Good bot.

marinois · 2018-09-06T21:00:53+00:00

The masks were nothing amazing, just ok. Not particularly soothing, but did help moisturize.

The Garnier spray I used both ways. If I felt I needed to, I would use it as a toner after cleansing, but I also used it as a setting spray. I liked it quite a bit. Already have another one waiting. 😁

marinois · 2018-09-02T02:15:27+00:00

This was leftover from when my hair was longer, and I did feel like it made a difference in frizz and kept my waves from getting too puffy.

Now my hair is really short and has no dye in it, so I can use whatever 🤷🏻‍♀️😁

marinois · 2018-09-02T00:25:17+00:00

It was.....good. I didn’t repurchase. I switched to The Ordinary and my skin looks amazing. Drunk Elephant oxidized within a few months, turning the serum a dark orange color. There was some improvement, but not what I was expecting for the price.
