What prompts you to get rid of products in your collection?

I try to sort through every two to three months, depending on my schedule and how much has accumulated. As I test and review products, I separate into bins to donate (new, lightly used powder-based products), give to family/friends (used creams/liquids, older products), and to keep. If a brand...

Rant & Rave: Urban Decay

Rant & Rave: Urban Decay

Tell us what you love and hate about...

Urban Decay

There are a lot of permanent products from Urban Decay that I really love (Vice Lipsticks and 24/7 Eyeliners are some of my go-tos, as far as I can have go-tos!). I’ve found that their seasonal/limited edition launches can be more hit or miss, and they can be repetitive, despite the brand not having THAT many launches per year (like why it is always the same cheek trio?).

How many beauty products are within your reach right now? (And where are you?)

How many beauty products are within your reach right now? (And where are you?)

At my desk; Jack Black Lip Balm and nothing else. I don’t usually keep much in the way of beauty/makeup products on my actual desk (the photo room is about six feet away and my makeup room is about 15 feet away, and I try really hard to keep my desk tidy).
