How I chose these items were based on two concepts: 1) Which items have I had the longest (as in years)? and 2) What have I started that is almost done? I'll show you the products and let you know whether I will repurchase them or not. I've used them enough to know that answer.
Here are my 13:
Face:
1) Mary Kay Foundation Primer: I will not repurchase this simply because I have found another primer that I am completely happy with right now. (More on that in a future blog post)
2) MAC Studio Fix Fluid in NC30 (summer shade): I will not repurchase this foundation because of the smell and there are others from MAC I'd like to sample.
3) L'oreal True Match Foundation in W5 (summer shade): I would repurchase this foundation. I like the coverage and that there are so many shades and tones to choose from.
4) Origins Silk Refining Powder Makeup in Camel 05: I will not repurchase this powder, it just doesn't do anything special.
5) MAC Mineralize Skinfinish in Perfect Topping: I will not repurchase this shade due to being limited edition but I do in general enjoy MAC MSF's so of course I will be buying more. I also plan on using this as an all over face powder because it's not super metallic or shiny in finish. It gives a nice, subtle glow.
Eyes:
6) Covergirl Aqua Smoothers Concealer in Light: I really like this concealer. It is very creamy, gives nice coverage and reminds me a lot of Benefit Boi-ing Concealer. I would consider repurchasing this in the future.
7) Laura Mercier Eye Basics in Flax: I love many Laura Mercier products but this is not one of them. I have product left on the very bottom and the applicator will not reach it. I much prefer eye primers in a squeeze tube or pot form. The actual product works great but packaging..not so much. Needless to say, I will not repurchase this.
8) Origins eye shadow in Copper Penny: I love the color not so much the texture. I will not repurchase.
Lips:
10) Rimmel Lip Liner in Addiction: Nice dark nude color and I would consider repurchasing this item.
11) ELF Lucious Liquid Lipstick in Maple Sugar: I love this color! It's a mauve brown, not sticky, peppermint smell / feeling and only one dollar. Yes of course, I would repurchase this. :)
12) MAC lipstick in Angel: I love this color but I also own Creme Cup which is very similar so I won't repurchase this until I finish both. This is a beautiful soft pink color.
13) MAC Dazzleglass in Passing Fancy (limited edition): This color is a beautiful shimmery peach but Dazzleglasses are not my favorite MAC glosses so I will not repurchase this item.
There you have it, my list of 13 products I will finish up this year. I will keep you posted on my progress. Do you have any beauty items that you plan on finishing this year? Let me know - I'd love to hear from you.
Thanks for spending time with me today!
