How much do you keep up with new launches?

I try to keep up with the major ones and a select more indie/up-and-coming brands as there are a lot of brands around, so trying to keep up with everything is overwhelming.

Cream Eyeshadow

I love them for adding a shinier, more sparkly finish (with less falout) and just having a more intense finish overall.

If you had done more research, what are some products you wouldn't have purchased?

No answer is jumping out at me, but I’ll say that there have been times where a brand’s past performance has made me weary of future releases, and instead of buying six shades (out of 20+) to see how those performed… I’ve bought all 20+ and came away with a lot of disappointing/so-so reviews...

Has researching products before purchasing actually led to better purchases for you?

Has researching products before purchasing actually led to better purchases for you?

In general (not just in beauty), absolutely! Even reviews that aren’t super informative or the most in-depth/best reviews can still be more helpful than not in making a purchase.

What is your success rate on impulse purchases?

What is your success rate on impulse purchases?

I’ll be curious to read your answers, since most of the time I’m purchasing just-released products so there’s not much available ahead of time and my thoughts are more about whether it makes sense to review at that moment in time!
