Do you prefer products with names or numbers?

Do you prefer products with names or numbers?

I prefer names as they are easier to remember, but numbers tend to be a way for brands to stay out of trouble, LOL. For skin-toned products, like foundation, I like numbers and letters to signify depth and undertone over names, though.

Do you keep track of what products you've used in looks?

Do you keep track of what products you've used in looks?

I really try to! There are some days that I test and my eyes are being sensitive–too red or just feeling sensitive to light–where I won’t take photos of what I’m testing, but I do keep track most of the time since I need to keep track of wear times and the like!

I don’t think Mellan has ever destroyed makeup! I’m not recalling it, though he has become mythical and legendary with nary a bad memory in this household 😉

Powder Highlighters

I love them all! Subtle or glowing from space, I dig. Most highlighter formulas are very blendable and easy enough to work with, so I don’t find I have to worry about application and can just enough the effect. The only downside is when they emphasize skin texture, because it becomes a game of trade-offs for that otherworldly glow!

What's your current lip care routine?

What's your current lip care routine?

I mostly use Sara Happ’s The Lip Slip at night. I’m using ILIA and Biossance lip balms in the morning prior to applying whatever lip products I expect to test that day (I wipe off the balm before testing, but just in that time before).

Are you committed to your skincare products or always trying new ones?

There are a few I’m pretty committed to where I’ve repurchased multiple times over the course of years, like Biologique Recherge PIGM 400, Shiseido Eye + Lip Makeup Remover, Farmacy Green Clean to name a few. I’ll try other makeup removers, but they’re not something I feel requires a...
