Not me running to the description box to see what's on your eyes. So pretty! And it looks great with the black shirt. Great empties! Such a beautiful palette! I love it soooo much!! Your numbers look amazing!!! Love seeing those red numbers! 🎉🎉🎉 Thank you for the shout-out!! ♥️♥️♥️
The Urban Decay Naked Heat and Naked Honey have a hold on me! Love me some warm tones!! I am very happy with my numbers, but dang it I need to save up some money. Maybe a no buy/replacement buy in May.... 😄
remember to put some sunscreen on your ears as well. I've never tried the cleansing balm from clinique but I think you'd for sure be able to find some good more affordable cleansing oils in the korean skincare department
I was thinking about doing a Yes Style order for some skin care and some lip products. I do put SPF behind my ears most of the time, but when I know I'm going to be outside in direct sunlight, I do coat my ears. Do you have any recommendations from K Beauty?
@@erintaylorwrites yes definitely, i'm a yesstyle rat, my favrouite oils are beplain and man:yo, though skin 1004 and haru haru wonder are worth checking out as well. 200ml lasts me usually about to 3-4 months and I do share it with my mom. I could talk about my recommendations for hours, but since you mentioned lip products the newest "glasting color gloss" from romand is so good the formula is so nice on the lips, very moisturizing, when it comes to tints i recommend colorgram fruity glass tints for a strong stain with vibrant colours, for something more muted my choice would be romand glasting WATER tint (the names are really important because theyre similar, but the juciy lasting tints are amzing as well), if youre looking for a melting balm type of product the romand are really hyped but I'd actually skip them, theyre patchy and gloopy in that department I'd lean into the recent dasique ones or a classic flortte!! if you have any questions please ask away I'd love to help!!
@@salmonskinroll5817 OH that's perfect!! I watched Lauren Mae's video on the yes style lips and I am all over those tints!! I have a few things added to my cart. When I have finished building my cart, I'll comment again with what I have picked out!!
@@salmonskinroll5817 Ok, so I have these in my cart: romand - Glasting Water Tint, romand - Glasting Melting Balm, innisfree - No-Sebum AC Powder (I've tried this powder before and it is so good!), Anua - Heartleaf Pore Control Cleansing Oil, romand - Han All Fix Mascara - Hazel, seems like a cool color.
Innesfree has such a good spf moisturizer I just finished mine up the other month ! Also I’m going through the Clinique take the day off and I feel like that cleansing balm is never ending 😅 Fifteen dollars for shipping you have got to be kidding me Saving boxes probably like 28/30 lol
I love Innesfree products!!! And YES to the Clinique balm. It is a little more expensive, but I need such a small amount of it to take off my makeup and it last forever!!!
I would think twice with $15 shipping, but I dont lust after eyeshadow like some others and know there are other considerations that other people make. I would probably try to dupe it out of my own collection first or think hard about the % of shadows i would be willing to use up. Great update!
The shipping cost was hard to swallow, but the discount code I used pretty much covered it. I also understand that smaller businesses have to charge shipping. I love that you thinking about a % of pans to declutter to bring in new shades. I don't think I could dupe out the Cold Moon from my current collection since I don't go for cool tones often and most of the shimmers in the palette are multi chromes. I am glad I tried the formula, but I think I need to adjust my exceptions about shipping with indie brands or just order during sales.
You should try the peach and slices azelic acid serum. I used it all the way up late last year. It helped with my normal breakouts - during the time I used it I didn't get any deep painful zits. I only get some surface level zits anymore. It is fantastic.
That's awesome! I will look into it! I have a Rx cream at 15% that I use also. I'm seeing another doctor in May about my hormones so maybe that will help as well. Fingers Crossed!
Lmao!! 😂😂😂 I started saving ‘good boxes’ about age 40. 42 now and I get equally excited about the product inside, as I do about the boxes from Lancome!! They are shoebox style with a lid.
I’m tracking hair care this year out of sheer morbid curiosity. I have naturally curly hair and curly girls go through PRODUCT! Lol. Specifically styling products. So we shall see when I may be able to swap out for less expensive alternatives.
@@JourneyInBeauty 😂 I think we started when everything got so expensive and we are having so much taking out in taxes that we don't want to pay for packing materials! I ordered some dining chairs, and I saved the big boxes to cut up tree branches into, then be able to burn them in our fire pit. A good box can be used for so much! We also keep an okay box to throw things into for Goodwill.
@@JourneyInBeauty I have narrowed down my products pretty well. I want to find styling tools that will work for me. I burn myself on my curling wand every time.
I'm so tempted by the Flower Moon palette by Einsley Raine, but between the palette and shipping to Ireland I just can't justify it. It would be around 100 euro! The last time I spent that much on makeup I had received a little windfall and treated myself to an Hourglass face palette, which I ended up decluttering to my mother because it didn't suit my skin tone. That one stung! Just wondering why your eyeshadow category has -1 in the decluttered column?
Oh goodness! I can't even imagine international shipping!!! Even shipping from Lethal in Germany isn't that much! In the eyeshadow category, I have a -1 because I re-cluttered the ColourPop Super Shock in Birthday Girl (the one I "repressed" and brought back to life). I had decluttered it at the end of last year but then when the repressing worked, I put it back I my collection. ☺️
@@erintaylorwrites yes shipping is mad usually. I just ordered Alter Ego's Wildwood palette because I've lusted after the Yucca palette since it was released. That cost me 22 euro for the palette and 17 euro shipping. Still a lot but not anywhere in the region of the cost to get the Natasha Denona one shipped to me. Holo Taco has great international shipping. I wish they sold makeup too 🤣🤣 Thanks for clarifying about the eyeshadow category. I've definitely undeclutterel a few items in my time 🙂
@@LornaKelso Shipping is so hard, and I can see it from the business side. Like, do they lower shipping but increase the cost of the product? You will have to let me know what you think about the Wildwood palette. I love the Yucca palette! And that Super Shock was one of my favs, so I was so happy when I could save it!
Do you include palettes I. Your eye shadow number. If so do you could the palette as 1 or each shadow as 1. I am sure you addressed his in a previous.video. Also really enjoy your videos
Hey! Thanks for asking! In my main inventory I count a palette as one product, but also single potted shadows like Super Shocks, also as one product. But in my spreadsheets, I also have how many shadows are in each palette so I know my total number of shadows. ❤
The shadows are beautiful, but you are right...we "vote" with our dollars, so if so many people are passing on buying because of the price/shipping, maybe indie brands will change things up. I stand by my idea that smaller palettes than maybe more people would buy since it is hard to let go of $100 for colored powders.
I use the elf cleansing balm but I go thru it fast. I am so wanting to order from Ensley reign, maybe if they have a good sale they're so pricy. Good month for you overall
They are pricey, and the shadows are beautiful, but I think there would need to be another color story that blew my socks off to order again. There are so many other indie brands I want to try. And I never wanted to try the ELF cleansing balm because there is so little product in the tub. The Clinique Jumbo is $7.91 per oz and the ELF is $5.43 per oz. I got the Clinique on sale for $4.47 per oz, so I think that is a better deal and one Jumbo is the size of two of the ELF lager sizes, so maybe less packaging? 😅 Maybe I am just making excuses for my favorite products.
@@erintaylorwrites no I agree, actually watching you made me think about things, like yeah it might cost more, but it's it better quality and how long will it last. Like say I but elf eyebrow pencil I can go thru it in a month or so, but I got the precisely my brows in a giveaway and I've been using it for 5 months. So in this situation I'm not really saving by buying the elf. I started my collection with quantity in mind, now I just want a curated collection I love and know. I will one day buy Ensley right now tho I'm working on getting this makeup to homes who will use it. I would like my beauty room to hold more than makeup in drawers. I mean it is insane to think I have over 3000 products.. sometimes I say who bought this insanity🤣 but I get finding something that works and stick with it.
So I have a really bad problem with certain textures. I have oily skin (all over honestly), so the process of putting body lotion on makes me want to crawl out of my skin. Does body oil feel significantly different? Does it take a long time to sink in? That was my other complaint with body lotion, I don't have time to just sit somewhere while it sinks in or the desire to take a long time to massage it in.
I like the body oil better than body creams/butters. I ended up picking up the Palmer's Coconut Oil Body Oil ($7.68) and the Dr. Teals Shea Butter Body Oil ($5.87), mixed the two, and it smells like the Bum Bum cream!! The body oil goes on so smooth and sinks in, but my skin still feels a little oily for a while, but not in a way where my clothes are sticking weird to me. I only use it at night on my arms and chest and I will wear it on my legs during the day. Maybe try one of the two I mentioned so that you aren't spending a bunch of money on a high end one. I am a total convert to body oils now! I have not touched my body butter in months!
I've used the baby oil gel before and didn't like it, but I also don't like powdery scents that often come with the baby oil, but I will see what else they have!!
Yes! I was chatting with someone from New Zealand and she was talking about the shipping costs, and I could NEVER convince myself that I needed colored powders for the cost of that shipping. I do buy products from Nikkia Joy which has a 1% exchange fee, but she has a shipping center in the US. It always amazing me all the extra fees that countries tack on to imported goods.
If I have to pay shipping for something that’s over 30£ I am not buying it when it comes to clothes, skincare and makeup. It’s as simple as that for me. 🤣
