June Empties

Guys. I used up a lot--A LOT--of makeup this month. And, when I say a lot, I mean A LOT. I used up so much makeup that I feel like my makeup bag is 10 pounds lighter. Just kidding, I don't keep my makeup in a makeup bag, it would never fit.

What could be better than that? Non-Acetone Nail Polish Remover by Ulta ($2.49) - There's a lot of nail polish removers out there. In my experience, they're all more or less the same.
