Last blush I wore was Ciate London Glow to Illuminating Blush in Baby Doll. I like mixing my highlighter with blush so these blushes work well for me. I feel like I get a better outcome on my older, dry and textured skin when I either mix traditional blush with highlighter or use one that is already mixed.
Last eyeliner I used was Nabla eyeliner in Crystal from the Freedomination release.
Last lip balm was Aquaphor. I ran out of the Nuxe Reve de Miel and since it isn’t sold at Target anymore I have to order on-line. I did hear that they are phasing out of the U.S. market so will have to see if I can still find it in the future. I have the Jack Black one but don’t care for it much and haven’t tried the Clarin one yet. Everybody says it is amazing.

Last lip balm you used? I actually wore Eve Lom Demure today for a bit of color, but my new discovery is the Fresh Caramel lip balm. Apart from smelling amazing, it lasts a long time on the lips (multiple beverages and eating) and provides nice hydration and is buildable for a thicker layer overnight. I like the Sugar balms, but I don’t think you can build it up enough to provide overnight hydration that will last.
Your skin tone/colouring: Mac NC 15, Nars Gobi, Bourjois 51
