Nouveau Cheap is Currently Craving: Paula’s Choice Resist 1% Retinol Booster. I love the idea that you can add a few drops of this to any of your existing moisturizers or serums for an extra shot of Retinol and antioxidants. I have so many “meh” moisturizers that I’m trying to use up right now–they could really use this extra boost!
we heartsters, name every beauty product you have in your purse right now…
I love questions like these!
Deep breath: Urban Decay Revolution Gloss in Liar, a mini Hourglass Canvas lipstick, one of the new CG Katy Perry matte lipsticks in Pink Paws, a black Sephora eyeliner, Benefit Sunbeam, Porefessional powder, and License to Blot stick, and Dinoplatz Dear. Brachiosaurus blotting papers.
@amity – I’ve been eying those Too Cool for School blotting papers with every Sephora purchase! I’m going to have to take the plunge. $8 is a steal too.
Here they are, everyone: http://rstyle.me/n/bqfwj6p37w
Basically, I have change and lip products. Seriously, I have twelve different lip sticks, gels, balms and glosses in there. All of the lipsticks are MACs so they all look alike, too. I have more lip products in my bag than I have in my makeup case at home (that might not be true, but close). I also have enough change for at least three frappuccinos (but I’m too impatient to ever count it out). @amity, I want your bag.
I never, ever have change when I need it, so totally down for a bag swap!
Ironically, I cleaned out my makeup bag over the weekend because my purse strap was leaving a deep groove in my shoulder! I’m down to the bare minimum today: MAC Select Sheer Pressed Powder, Lipstick Queen Frog Prince lipstick, bareMinerals Marvelous Moxie lipgloss in Rebel, Alba Botanica Hawaiian lip balm.
@amity, Brachiosaurus blotting papers! That’s great!
They are seriously my favorite blotting papers EVER–the packaging is super cute, and it comes with a puff that picks up each paper , so you never touch the icky used paper. Plus it has a big mirror; highly recommend.
They’re now on my shopping list. Thanks, @amity!
I have that Frog Prince lipstick in my purse, too! Did you know they just came out with a Frog Prince cream blush and lip gloss??? Consider yourself enabled!
I just changed my purse too! Not something I do often, and not because it was causing deep groves in my shoulder, my very own boulder-holder is famous for that. The pocket-book, just broke and that was that, forcing me to go thru the beast!
Good news is, it’s still loaded with lots of good stuff, here it goes!
Amore Pacific Moisture Bound Lip Treatment
Fresh Sugar Rose Lip Treatment
Clarins Instant Light Lip Balm- Rose
Two Faced Glamor Gloss-Barely Legal
Tarte Lip gloss- Blushing Bride
Sephora Outrageous volume mascara
Smashbox Limitless Eye Liner – Onyx
Smashbox Creamy Cheek Color- Untamed
Nars Goulue
Beau Skin- Invisible Pores Facial Foundation –Natural Light
And that is only 1/2 of what was in there before! OY!!
@irene – I think that’s more of a makeup bag than a purse!
I have Lipstick Queen Frog Prince and Eden, Dr. Hauschka Lip Care Stick, Clean & Clear blotting papers, a mini Lollia hand cream, a sample vial of Jo Malone English Pear & Freesia cologne, IT Cosmetics Celebration Foundation compact in Fair, and a Sweet Cinnamon Pumpkin anti-bac gel from Bath & Body Works.
Smashbox gloss, my new FAVE from Beauty Kind, a Juara sample lotion in Candelnut…seriously this scent is out of this world, Becca Cosmetics foundation powder compact, Too Faced Lipstick, it’s pretty sparse right now because I just cleaned out about a dozen Mac Lipglasses and Lipsticks!!!
