Shop My Stash July 2019 Results and Monthly Empties

Hi All! I’m back with my July Shop My Stash results! I enjoy dipping into my collection and using products I haven’t used in a long time, or just haven’t given much of a chance.

My rule with this is if I don’t like the item after the month, I will move it out of my collection to make some room and let someone else enjoy it! You can check out my first Shop My Stash post for July.

One product is already gone. The Colourpop Super Shock Cheek in Spoon was waaay to glittery for me. I tried it once and gave it away.

On the other hand, I used the heck out of the Buxom Lip Creams! I wore one with a lip liner almost every day! I still have a ways to go to use them up, but I want to use them up by the end of the year. I will be keeping these!

Here’s photos with the palettes open:

The Maybelline Lemonade Craze palette was my most used palette this month. I forgot how good it is! My favorite shade is Strawberry Lemonade because it is so shimmery dry, but very metallic wet! My least favorite is Main Squeeze because it’s so glittery. I wore it once and had glitter fall out all over my face. I guess you can use a glitter glue with it, but I don’t like to bother with it.

I am definitely keeping this palette because you can make so many different looks with it!

This is the Alamar Cosmetics Reina Del Caribe Vol.1 Eyeshadow Palette.

I got this last summer. I haven’t used it a lot before this. I used it a few times this months and I like it. The top four shades seem very summery and the bottom four are very fall-ish. The shades I used the most are Coco-taxi and La Costa. When I did use this I paired it with the Lemonade Craze palette.

Since I didn’t reach for it a lot, I don’t know if I will keep it. I might try using it in the fall and see if I use it more.

On to my July Empties:

I think this is the most empties I’ve had for one month! I’m pretty proud that I have used all of these up!

My favorite products here that I will repurchase when needed are the Mamonde rose toner, the Beauty Bakerie powder, the MAC fix+, the Urban Decay All Nighter spray and the L’Oreal Unlimited Length and Lift Mascara. They are all amazing products!

I won’t repurchase the Andalou face wipes or the Colourpop mascara. Neither of these products impressed me. The wipes didn’t really remove all of my makeup and the Colourpop mascara was so thick and goopy. And it made such a mess when I removed it.

The other products were all very good and I may repurchase if I run out of skincare. I have a lot now I am using and testing out, so I shouldn’t have to purchase new skincare for the rest of the year! LOL! I’m getting more in for review, too.

This was a really successful month for my Shop my Stash and for empties. I really used most of the products a bunch and I had a lot of empties.

Do you do a Shop my Stash? How’s it going?

Shop My Stash — July 2019

Hi all! It’s July! It’s time for a new month and a new Shop My Stash! I’m always excited to play with new (again to me) products that I either haven’t used in a while or haven’t used much at all! My goal is to get more use out of the products I have and to see if they are something I want to keep.

We are fully into summer now, and I wanted to choose summery products that would be fun to use:

This is the Alamar Cosmetics Reina Del Caribe Vol.1 Eyeshadow Palette. I received this in a BoxyCharm last year. It’s so pretty, but I haven’t really used it since last summer. Although it does look like a summer palette, the mattes would be nice in the fall, so I need to remember it this year!

This is the Maybelline Lemonade Craze Eyeshadow Palette. This is another palette that I haven’t used since last summer.

I really like this palette. The mattes blend well and the shimmers can be built up and made metallic with a little setting spray. I’m looking forward to playing with it and making pretty summery looks!

I forgot to take photos of the individual glosses and highlighter. But here are the swatches.

From left to right is Buxom Full-On Lip Creams in White Russian, Dolly and Hot Toddy. The highlighter is ColourPop Super Shock Cheek in Spoon.

I love the Buxom lip creams, but I have neglecting them due to receiving new glosses this year. I want to give these some love and since I’ve had them over a year, I would like to start using them up.

The ColourPop highlight is nice, but a little glittery. We’ll see if I like it enough to keep it after the month!

I’m excited about my Shop My Stash this month! Are you doing a Shop My Stash?

2018 Annual Beauty Favorites

Happy New Year! I am so excited to get 2019 started.

I haven’t done a monthly favorites since October — the end of the year has been so crazy! But I want to look back on a few of my favorites for 2018. I’ve chosen my favorite makeup in each category I use — and a skincare favorite or two.

Even though I am just picking one (or so) from each category, I needed two photos to capture my faves. And I am going in order of application:

The two skincare products I’ve chosen are the Derma E Firming DMAE Cleanser and the Elemis Pro-Collagen Marine Cream. I featured the Derma E Cleanser in my most recent Project Pan. I was proud that I panned it, but I’m also sad that I’m all out! It really cleanses the skin without drying it out. And it didn’t irritate my sensitive skin. I just started using the Elemis cream. It is so beautiful! I started out using it morning and night, but I’m almost out, so I only use it in the morning. It’s so nice under makeup. It’s smooths and hydrates my skin and my makeup applies smoother.

I then like to spritz some Smashbox Photo Finish Primer Water. I discovered it this year and really like using it before pore filling primer. My favorite has been the Cover FX Blurring Primer. I’m almost out of it, but I love how well it fills in my pores. I received it in BoxyCharm and am very impressed bye it. I want to try more primers from Cover FX this year. I next like to apply BECCA Under Eye Brightening Corrector before I apply foundation and concealer. It instantly makes my dark circles look lighter.

My favorite foundation this year is the Physician’s Formula The Healthy Foundation. I have it in the shade LC1. It’s a bit light for me, except for this time of year. I will probably purchase it in a darker shade for the spring and summer. It has a natural medium coverage finish which is exactly what I like in a foundation. I have used up a Flower Beauty Light Illusion Concealer and am working on a second one now that I found in my drawer. I think the first one I used was in Fair and this one is in Light, but they are both so beautiful on. It’s full coverage but looks very natural. I just panned the Maybelline Fit Me Loose Powder in 10 Fair Light. I have been using it for most of 2018. It sets the face so nicely and gives a hint of color.

After I apply my foundation and powder, I bronze with the Physician’s Formula Butter Bronzer. I purchased this in the spring and have been using it all year! It applies smoothly and blends out so well. And the smell is divine! The Natasha Denona Super Glow Highlighter in #1 Fair is one of my favorites of the year. I purchased this when I was trying to buy the Anastasia Amrezy Highlighter earlier in the year, but it was sold out. (I have recently purchased it and will be reviewing it soon). The Natasha highlighter is very blinding, but can be toned down with a little powder.

Speaking of Anastasia, I purchased a Blush Trio in Peachy Love earlier this year at an Ulta sale. I love mixing the first and third color to brighten up my light skin. I also love the bareMinerals Gen Nude Powder Blush in On the Mauve for cooler toned looks. To finish off face products, I want to mention the Urban Decay setting sprays, especially the Chill Cooling and Hydrating Makeup Setting Spray. I used it up this fall and don’t have the bottle, but it was my summer setting spray. It feels so nice on and my makeup lasts all day.

For eye shadow this year, my favorite is the Urban Decay Born To Run Eyeshadow Palette. I love the quality and the variety of colors. My honorable mention is one I just received in my BoxyLuxe, the Violet Voss Holy Grail PRO Eyeshadow Palette. I don’t know when this was released, but it’s new to me! I still need to review it, but spoiler alert, it’s gorgeous!

I have short, sparse lashes so although mascara helps, my lashes never looked amazing until I started using the L’Oreal Voluminous Lash Primer under my mascara. I received a small sample in an Ulta order in Spring and I purchased a full size. I think it’s time to get another one, because I don’t want to be without! The Buxom Lash Mascara works perfectly over it and my lashes look long and lush, almost like I’m wearing falsies!

Although my lashes are sparse, my brows are dark and full. As I age, they are finally thinning out and I have started to fill them in. I received the L.A. Girl Shady Slim Brow Pencil as a free gift the same time I received the L’Oreal lash primer. The words have rubbed off, so I’m not even sure what the shade is. I think it’s Blackest Brown. Whatever it is, it’s perfect for me! It’s very thin and easy to draw on brow hairs. And it has a nice spooly on the end. I’ts only $5.99 so I will be purchasing new one once I run out.

And lastly is lips. I am sooooo glad that gloss made a comeback this year! Light rosy and nude glosses are my favorites. I love a lot — Buxom, Lorac, Dose of Colors — but my favorite is the Fenty Gloss Bomb in Fenty Glow. It’s a beautiful nude-rose shade and is really hydrating, not sticky at all. My favorite lipstick is the Lipstick Queen Nothing But the Nudes in Nothing But The Truth. I also love The Truth and The Whole Truth. These are the original three in the collection, but there are now 6 more nude shades and I want them! These lipsticks are creamy and hydrating on. So nice if you like nude lipsticks!

Whew! That was a long post! What did you love this year? Any winners I should check out?

Ulta Fall Haul!

HI all! After Ulta’s 21 Days of beauty, which has a lot of higher end makeup deals, they had their more affordable products on sale in their Fall Haul. I picked up few and got some great deals!

I got:

BH Cosmetics Desert Oasis – 19 Color Shadow & Highlighter Palette

Maybelline SuperStay Matte Ink Lip Color in Driver

MEMEBOX I Dew Care Mini Meow Trio

Ardell Duo Brush-On Dark Adhesive with Vitamins

Physicians Formula The Healthy Foundation SPF 20 (LC1)

Clinique Dramatically Different Hydrating Jelly — I got a free deluxe size w/any foundation purchase

BH Cosmetics Desert Oasis – 19 Color Shadow & Highlighter Palette — Ulta had their BH Cosmetics palettes on sale for 40% off and I had my eye on this one. It was released in the summer, but I think it works as well in the Fall. It has mostly neutral shades with some pops of blue. BH’s shadows are such great quality. This blends so well and the shimmers and metallics are so buttery! I will be reviewing this.

MaybellineSuperStay Matte Ink Lip Color in Driver. I’ve been wanting to try this. The shade is pretty, but this is pretty drying on my lips. I usually don’t wear matte liquid lips, but I wanted to try this formula. I can wear it, but I need a gloss on top.

MEMEBOX I Dew Care Mini Meow Trio — This is such a cute little peeling mask trio! The masks are all shimmery and are so fun to use. I have tried the purple one because it is meant to be hydrating! It did leave my face moisturized, but also made my pores look smaller! I still have to try the other two, but so far so good!

Ardell Duo Brush-On Dark Adhesive with Vitamins — I haven’t tried this yet, but I picked it up because I have a few sets of lashes, but no glue. I don’t wear lashes, but it I do decide to try them, I have glue! I do have a lash review coming up, so I need to try them out!

Physicians Formula The Healthy Foundation SPF 20 (LC1) — I got this foundation on sale and got a free Clinique Hydrating Jelly.

I think I’ll review the foundation, too. So far, I really like it. Since I did purchase online, I guessed on the shade. They all looked pretty dark on the Ulta website so I bought the lightest shade. It’s just a bit light for me. So if I buy it again, I would have to go just a bit darker.

So that’s my fun Fall Haul! I got everything on sale and paid about $40 for all of this and tax. That’s a pretty good deal! Did you pick up anything from the Fall Haul?

Maybelline Super Stay Multi-Use Foundation Stick Review

Hi All! I hope you are having an amazing weekend! I’m back with a foundation review. I don’t review a lot of foundations, because I only have one face!

I was so excited to get the Maybelline Super Stay Multi-Use Foundation Stick for my honest review. I’ve been wanting to try this! Here’s a close look at the shades I received:

These are 110 Porcelain, 120 Classic Ivory, 130 Buff Beige, 220 Natural Beige, 312 Golden, 330 Toffee, and 360 Mocha. You can probably tell that I have been using 120. It’s a really good match for me.

Here’s close up of the stick and sponge:

And here are a few swatches:

The Maybelline New York Super Stay Multi-Use Foundation Stick ($11.99 USD) allows you to perfect the ‘no-makeup’ makeup look by offering a lightweight formula to create a flawlessly natural complexion.

This foundation is easy to use, I just swipe the stick on my face and blend in with a brush or sponge. It gives a natural look, I’d say it’s a medium coverage. I did try to blend with the sponge end, but it’s really rough and I didn’t care much for it, even when I wet it. It will work okay in a pinch, though.

I also want to say that darker and lighter shades can be used for concealer, highlighter and contour. They are so creamy and blend out really well!

I have to say that the only con in this foundation, besides the sponge, is that there is not a lot of product. It’s only .25 oz or 7 g. I do know that stick foundations can’t carry a lot of product in them, but if they removed the sponge there would be more room. I have used it exclusively for a couple of weeks, and there is only about half of the stick left. I am saving it for a trip I’m going on soon because I know it will travel so well!

I can say I will probably purchase this again, but I do hope they change up the packaging and add more product!

The Maybelline New York Super Stay Multi-Use Foundation Stick is available now at mass market retailers in 16 shades.

Have you tried this foundation? What’s your favorite stick foundation?

Keep Summer Going With Bright and Fun Eye, Lip, and Nail Products!

I am really looking forward to fall, but it’s still summer! And while the weather is still warm and the sun is shining, I want to wear bright colors!

Below are my picks for the end of summer. I received samples for my honest review of everything except for the Maybelline Soda Pop palette:

Maybelline New York Soda Pop Eyeshadow Palette ($13.99 USD) — I don’t have this yet, but I do want to get it because I think the shades are gorgeous! Here’s the info:

This is available NOW on Ulta.com

Wunder2 Wunderkiss Gloss Lip Liner ($11.95 USD) — This liner is created to be used with lip gloss! The liner is very smooth and easy to use. The claim is that it can be used to create a beautiful, long-lasting lip contour that keeps your lip gloss in place. I find that it does just that. My gloss looks fresh for longer. Available in 3 shades — Nude, Rose and Berry. I love the Nude, but the Rose is so pretty, too! The Berry is a little dark for me, but I might try it in the fall.

Purchase at www.wunder2.com

Sally Hansen Miracle Gel Sunset Splash Collection

I have been loving these Sally Hansen Miracle Gel Sunset Splash Collection for my end of summer nails looks. Give your nails a gradient summer splash with the “Sunset Splash” collection which features 6 shades. From glamorous sunset sky to glitter gradients this collection definitely has you covered. I love doing an ombre look with these or I use a cream like Smartease and add a shimmer or glitter accent like Metro Midnight. Plus since I use these with their gel top coat, they stay looking amazing for about a week!

What products are you loving now? Are you still wearing summer products or are you all about fall?

Shimmery Summer Lip Products From Maybelline!

I recently received some really fun lippies from Maybelline for my honest review. I received shades from three collections, Lip Studio Electric Shine Prismatic Lip Gloss, Metallic Foil Liquid Lipstick, and the Lip Studio Glitter Fix Glitter Lip Gloss. They are all a very reasonable $8.99 each!

The Lip Studio Electric Shine Prismatic Lip Glosses are my favorite of the three. This is Maybelline’s first ever holographic gloss. Radiant pearl pigments combined with a water-infused formula create an iridescent shine for a multidimensional lip look. Available in 6 shades.

They are so pretty on! They can be worn by themselves, or as lip toppers. My fave shade is the middle one in the photo, Moonlit Metal. It’s a gold and purple duo chrome. Here are swatches:

The shades are from left to right: Magnetic Ice, Cosmic Light, Moonlit Metal, Midnight Prism and Electric Blue. There is also a purple called Lunar Gem.

The first one is hard to see on my hand, but it’s a sheer pinky gold. It’s a really good lip topper. All of these are so pretty, but I can see myself wearing Magnetic Ice and Moonlit metal, and maybe Cosmic Ice. I’ll probably give the others to my daughters, even thought they are gorgeous!

The Metallic Foil Liquid Lipsticks are true liquid lipsticks as they dry down. The shades are very neutral and almost look like cream eye shadows! . The water-based formula includes suspended metallized pigments that fuse to lips to create a full-coverage, second skin lip color and a dimensional end look. Available in 6 shades.

These shades from left to right are: Zen, Trident, Luna, Calypso and Vortex. They also have a dark purple called Nemesis.

These are pretty and swatch really nicely. I only wear liquid lipsticks with gloss over them because I don’t like dry lips. But I do really like the pink Luna and the rose gold Zen on me. I love the Magnetic Ice gloss over both of them! They will be really nice for the summer with or without the gloss.

Lip Studio Glitter Fix Glitter Lip Gloss — Glitter is really hot right now, and is super fun for the summer. This gloss is carefully formulated with micro-fine glitters that adhere to the lips’ surface for a remarkably lightweight, full-coverage glitter look. One swipe is all you need for eye-catching sparkle that’s sure to light up any room! Available in 6 shades.

These shades are Gold Boost, Pink Smoke, Steamy Nights, Shadow Hunter. There are also two more, Spell Struck, a lavender and Wicked Tease, a dark purple.

This is a really smooth glitter lip gloss, not chunky or uncomfortable. Both these and the Prismatic glosses are hydrating and not sticky. I don’t know how much I will wear these, but they will be fun to have around!

Have you tried any of these Maybelline lip products?

Maybelline New York Lemonade Craze Palette

I love eye shadow palettes and also love reviewing them, too! I received the fun new Maybelline New York Lemonade Craze Palette for my honest review. I was so excited, because I really wanted to try it!

I want to show you the back of the palette. There are three different look tutorials:

I have been testing this for about a week, and have been using the same shades each time. So these were helpful in giving me new ideas!

Here is the beautiful palette before I dug into it!

Here’s the swatches:

These swatches are of the top half of the palette. The shades are Sherbet, Berry Ice, Strawberry Lemonade, Sunnies, Lemonade Craze and Main Squeeze. My favorite shade in the palette is Strawberry Lemonade. It’s so gorgeous and shimmery. I love the color. And I want to apply it every time I use this palette!

I first swatched these on my inner arm, but they didn’t show up because I’m so pale! So I swatched these on the top of my arm and the next ones on the inner arm:

These shades are Citrus, Ice Pop, Old Fashioned, Coral Punch, Sugar Coated and Sweet Tea. These are perfect for adding color to the look!

So now to the formula. The shades are gorgeous, but the formula isn’t the best. There is a lot of kickback in the pan, but luckily I don’t get a lot of fallout on my eye. It does take a few layers to get a pigmented look. And the shimmers work best when wet. I use a little Mac Fix+.

I am going to keep playing with this because I really love the shades and think it will be so gorgeous for spring and summer. Plus, the palette has a light citrus scent and I love that!

The Lemonade Craze Eyeshadow Palette is available now on Amazon at a suggested retail price of $13.99. It is listed at $10.99 right now, so if you want it, that’s a great price!

Do you have this palette or are you going to pick it up?
