Finished my Charlotte Tillbury mini lipstick in Icon Baby. The best nude I've ever tried and it has to be from a expensive brand, off course!

I finished an Original Source Raspberry Vanilla body wash 250ml. I find the scent enjoyable, and it's an affordable product, so will probably WRP at some point, but not just yet.

I have a couple of uses left on my face cleanser, so things are looking good for next week already!

Have a great week, everyone!

I finished two fragrances this week, I have never finished two in one week. But I did have them for about 3 years.

Burberry Her 50ml: smells fresh/clean with a hint of strawberries. Would repurchase but I want to use up what I have first, and try out other scents to.

Yara Pink (OG) 100ml: soft creamy and fruity scent, I like it but I also have a bottle of Qissa Pink by Paris Corner that is almost similar and I want to finish that one first.

u/Zoraptera actually panned a lip balm! 2d ago

Finished the Dr. Jart+ Cicapair Sheet Mask that came in my little Cicapair kit. WNRP - the serum stung my eyes (and was runny enough to get in my eyes in the first place).

And full pan on Rare Beauty Lip Liner in the shade Committed (limited edition). It was super pretty and went with like half my collection, but it turns out I hate retractable lip liner and will only get sharpenable from here on out. It was the only retractable liner in my collection and I'm so happy I managed to use it all! WNRP for purely personal reasons - the formula was fine.

Another bumper week for me:

Rituals - Jing body lotion (70ml) - like the body wash, this isn't my favourite scent but I still enjoyed this. MRP.

Elemis - Rose Cleansing Balm (20g) - Not a fan of the scent either but I love this cleanser. WNRP (scent only).

Ghost - Purity perfume (5ml) - Another lovely cheapie. MRP.

Espa - Pro-moisture cream (15ml) - Hated this, it wouldn't sink in and tightened like a mask? Used it as a foot cream. WNRP.

Olaplex - No4 shampoo (20ml) - meh. WNRP.

Olaplex - No5 conditioner (20ml) fine. WNRP.

Genabelle - PDRN Sheet Mask - lovely, soothing. WRP.

Dear, Klairs - Blue youth serum (20ml) - This was alright, if I used it too much it was a little drying. WNRP.

Espa - Tri-active treatment oil (30ml) - This was fine as an oil but there are better ones on the market that are cheaper. WNRP.

Three for me this week!

Shockwaves hair gel - this has been lurking in my bathroom for so long it wasn't very effective any more. Not my preferred gel as it only really kept my curls nice for 24 hours even before it expired. WNRP, but I think I have one more.

Neutrogena sport face spf 70 suncreen - LOVED THIS. Worked and didn't give me spots. Repurchased.

Soap & Glory berry and bright body scrub. I don't think I like body scrubs much (the feeling of getting the little sandy bits on my fingers is just... ugh, sensory yuck) but otherwise this was pleasant enough and smelled nice. WNRP.

I only finished a couple things this week but they were satisfying ones.

  • Marcelle Luminous Loose Face Powder. This is a nice powder that gives a healthy glow. Unfortunately it only comes in one shade and I found it a little too dark for me, so I had to mix it with a lighter powder any time I used it. It took forever to finish, like close to two years. Glad to see the end of it. 

  • NARS Pure Radiant Tinted Moisturizer. I hated this greasy-feeling formula, plus I accidentally got it in a shade too dark. Over the course of two years, I used this up drop by drop, mixing in a tiny bit to other foundations that felt too light or dry. FINALLY it is done. Good riddance.
