Favorites:
- The Balm's What's Your Type "the bodybuilder" Mascara in Black- I got this sample in a glam bag and, depending on the price, would actually think about buying again! now if it is more than $10 which it probably is, then probably not but if it was $10, I might pick it up. I like the wet-but-not-runny formula and the brush is pretty cool! It can clump with too many swipes but I really enjoy the affect. The only thing they could change is making it hold a curl better.
- Rimmel Fix and Perfect Pro Face Primer- I finished up the primer that I was mixing with the foundation I am using up, so I tried the Pixi sample I got from Ipsy and when that did not suffice, I decided to use the Rimmel primer. This is so good! I do not need more than a pea sized amount and it keeps the foundation on for many hours more that the others!
- LA Colors 6-pan Eyeshadow Palette in Café au Lait- I finally used up one of the colors! I used the cream highlight but I have been literally wearing this everyday not just because I am trying to use it up! I have found many other techniques to use with this and I am a little sad that I need a new highlight but that's ok! It was only a dollar so I might repurchase but I will have to see...
- ELF All Over Color Stick in Pink Lemonade- I have been using this quite often this month! I put it on right before my translucent powder and it looks so natural but is a nice and bright spring color! I use my fingers to apply to warm it up but blend with an angled blush brush!
Empties:
- 99 cent Nivea Crème Tin- This stuff saved me in the super cold and dry months! I cannot live without this in the winter! I have two tins but I only used up one. Even though I am using a lighter oil for the spring, it was still very wintery here in the beginning of March so I was able to use it up!
- Makeup Essentials mascara- I got this is a travel kit and It has finally been used enough to not even darken my lashes a little. I am really glad I used this up because now I only have four mascaras...
- Lip Smackers lip balm in Kiwi Kooler- I finally used this up! I literally dug out the last bit because I love Lip Smackers...
- Estee Lauder Illuminating Perfecting Primer- I did not really like this. I am glad it was only a sample I had to use up. I got it at a consignment store along with a Lancôme lipstick for $3! It had gold glitter in it and actually did not make the foundations last much longer. I liked the lipstick though!
- Tresame Tres Two Spray extra hold(4) non-aerosol Hair Spray- this was a mini and I have two so I at least wanted to use one up. I actually would recommend this hair spray! Especially if you are a dancer, this will hold your hair in a sleek bun or pony tail or anything else you want smooth! The only down side is the smell but that is for all Tresamme products.
- Tresame Fresh Start Dry Shampoo- This was ok! I do not think that it is really worth rebuying but I am really picky about that! It is definitely something to try! It was really nice for holding soft curls or giving body to your 'do!
- Cover Girl Liquid Pencil Eyeliner in Onyx- I do not think they even sell this anymore but it is used up or dried out but it does not draw a line so its finally gone! And it turned blue so that was a little weird...
