May, June, & July Empties

Image
As I've said before, I love writing empties blogs, but I haven't had a chance to write an empties blog in a while. So, I have a LOT of empties to talk about today. Let's get to it! Aventurine Crystal Setting Spray by ColourPop - At first, I wasn't the biggest fan of ColourPop's crystal sprays; I thought that they were just okay. However, after using the Aventurine Crystal Setting Spray up completely, I have to say that it did grow on me. The sprayer was not good at all; it left big droplets on the face. However, the formula itself was pretty decent, especially when layered with other setting sprays. I think ColourPop discontinued this spray, so I can't repurchase it, but I did like it. Amethyst Crystal Priming Spray by ColourPop - I have to say that I like ColourPop's crystal priming sprays more than their crystal setting sprays. They're very light primers, if that makes sense. I haven't really been into using a lot of primer lately, so I...

March & April Empties

Image
As I've said before, I really like writing posts about products that I used up. I buy so much makeup that sometimes it's nice to prove to myself that I can/do use things up and actually get my money's worth. It's weird, but I feel accomplished when I use things up, and, somehow, I used a LOT of things up this month (which is good because I'm moving this month and I'm trying to de-clutter things before I move). Anyway, let's get into this month's empties: Airspun Translucent Extra Coverage Loose Face Powder by Coty - Say what you want about this powder, but it lasts FOREVER. I think I purchased this product in October, I used it almost everyday, and I'm only now using it up. That's crazy, no? Anyway, I finally used up this powder, and I have opinions about it. At first, I didn't love this product because I thought it looked dry and cakey on my skin; however, I realized that I was using too much product. I think this is definitely a '...

Black Friday, Cyber Monday, and Cyber Fundays Haul

Image
Everyone and their brother has been posting Black Friday haul posts and videos over the past few weeks, so I don't think this haul needs a lot of introduction. Long story short, I took full advantage of the Black Friday/Cyber Monday sales this year. As you can probably tell from the length of this blog post, I got a *little* carried away. All the products mentioned in this blog are from Ulta, ColourPop, and MAC. Makeup Goodness Glows Liquid Foundation in Porcelain by Burt's Bees - I bought this foundation during Ulta's Cyber Funday sale a few weeks ago. I've already written an entire review on this foundation , so I'm not going to talk about it very much. Long story short, I like this foundation. It has fairly light coverage, a glow-y finish, and it's quite flattering on the skin. It's not the most long wearing foundation on planet Earth, and it has a weird scent, but those are pretty minor complaints. I f you like light coverage and have dry skin, ...
