Shopping the Stash #5: A Full Face of Old Favourites

Shopping the Stash - A Full Face of Old Favourites

I haven’t bought much makeup lately. Mostly because I’m trying to be a responsible grown-up person with some financial restraint, but also because I just haven’t been in the mood. I’ve been much more focused on using what I have in my stash (which is considerable) so I thought it was time for another “Shopping the Stash” post. This time I’ll put together (almost) a whole face from old faves that I haven’t used in a while: Primer By far one of the drugstore’s most underrated brands is Max Factor.

Shopping The Stash

Given the abundance of makeup that I own, you’d think it would be almost impossible for me to fall into a product rut, wouldn’t you? Well, it ain’t so!

Here’s what’s been on my face for the past couple of weeks (in keeping with my ‘more is more’ mantra, there are lots of products):

USA Beauty Haul

You may be confused by the title of this post, given that I have not been to America this year (I will leave that to Jules). However, my mule (read: boyfriend) has been there for approximately seven weeks, and as emotional compensation I am allowed to order whatever make-up my heart desires and he will bring it home for me. Lush. Let’s dive right in, shall we: Lorac PRO Palette: I have wanted this palette for the longest time, but it was only after watching Sharon Farrell’s latest video showing how she created 5 different looks with this palette, that I decided…

2014 Beauty Favourites: Honourable Mentions

Best Beauty Products of 2014: Honourable Mentions

It was pretty hard to narrow down our ten Best Beauty Discoveries of 2014 so I thought I would sneak in a few “honourable mentions” that I also really enjoyed using last year. These are more favourites than discoveries technically, but let’s not get bogged down in the details: Smashbox Liquid Halo Foundation If you’re looking for a medium coverage foundation that is luminous but not shiny and has an extremely natural finish, then Liquid Halo could be for you. Application is smooth and silky and it wears really well throughout the day on my combination skin (even better with…
