Another batch from the past year :) In this one I decluttered a bunch of lippies I was not loving. I admit, I'm a bit of a hoarder when it comes to makeup. Even if I was not using or loving it, I keep thinking I will use it one day (I will like it again, or will use it for swatching purposes etc.). I suppose this is some self-improvement moving on now!
Not too much exciting products in this batch, but a couple of highlights...
Shu Umera Cleansing Oil Conditioner. For its price, it should have been amazing, but it sadly wasn't... won't be repurchased. If you have lots of money feel free to try and see if you like it as it does have good reviews.
Shiseido Ibuki SPF 15 Emulsion. I really liked this and went through two bottles and bought one for my mom. It's a runny texture but soaks into the skin nicely, leaves a bit of a sheen so may not be great if you have oily skin. My skin used to be combination but now is just dry dry dry, this is good for me :)
I have finished my last IOPE cushion refill! I really liked this product and used it almost daily for a long time. Despite it being great, I think I'm ready to move on just out of boredom and wanting to try other things. I may come back to it later, and thus would recommend it to anyone who hasn't tried it yet! It's glowy though so be only for those who like that.
Benefit They're Real mascara is one of my favorite mascaras. I have gone through a full size tube and this is a deluxe sample (I have many of these from Sephora, yay!). It holds curl and doesn't smudge on my bulgy asian lids :)
That's it for now, until the next batch :)
want to try the Shiseido Ibuki emulsion but maybe have to wait till the fall as my skin can get really oily in the summer. I love the IOPE cushion. I went through 2 of those last year and I moved on to Hera and Troiareuke(which is more of skincare than makeup). But think I will go back to IOPE once I am finished.
ReplyDeleteWait for the Nov Sephora sale to get the Ibuki :) I have not heard of those two cushion brands before will look them up! I think one day I will also return to the IOPE, no complaints at all about it. I also want to try the YSL Fusion Ink cushion one day, will see!
