Your skin tone/coloring: fair, cool
Three products you couldn’t put down this month? Elizabeth Arden lip primer, PUR Minerals mineral powder foundation (I still have pans of the “old style” stuff which I prefer to the newer incarnation), Dior Rosy Glow Awakening blush
Favorite cheek product this month? Dior Rosy Glow Awakening blush
Favorite eyeshadow palette this month? Natasha Denona Mini Glam. It’s not at all what it looked like in the photos from the company (thank goodness for Christine and Temptalia for showing it like it really is) but even so, I really like it and I’ve used it more than any other palette or e/s combo this month. Second place would go to the Dior Celebrate in Gold 5-pan.
Your skin tone/coloring: Under my name, (blue-green eyes).
Three products you couldn’t put down this month? MAC Lunar New Year Double Gleam highlighter, PMG Dark Galaxy MTHRSHP Palette and Decadence Mothership Palette.
Favorite cheek product this month? MAC Lunar New Year Double Gleam Skin Finish highlighter. It’s the perfect champagne beige for me during winter!
Favorite eyeshadow palette this month? Has to be a tie between PMG Dark Galaxy and Decadence Mothership. Both are superb in quality and very easy to get great looks from!
Dark Galaxy puts otherworldly into a look. I tend to go all matte and then punch it up with a shadow from DG or GG.
Your skin tone/coloring: Light-medium warm yellow undertone, dark brown eyes and hair
Three products you couldn’t put down this month? MAC Prolongwear Concealer (rediscovered love), MAC Photo lipstick and MAC Haux eyeshadow (as an all over one shadow look)
Favorite cheek product this month? MAC Harmony
Favorite eyeshadow palette this month? My custom made eyeshadow palette (since it’s the one I love).
Your skin tone/coloring: Tan with warm peachy undertones
Three products you couldn’t put down this month? Melt’s Amor Eterno collection especially the Muerte palette and the brushes
Favorite cheek product this month? a MAC blush that I’ve had so long that the name faded away… I think the word Sun was in the name
Favorite eyeshadow palette this month? Melt’s Muerte palette
Your skin tone/coloring: Light neutral skin tone, green eyes, s&p hair
Three products you couldn’t put down this month?
1. Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-On Eyeliner in Mushroom
2. Laura Mercier Caviar Stick in Burnished Bronze
3. MAC Eyeshadow in Grain
Favorite cheek product this month? Clinique Cheek Pop blushes (favorite shades: Rosy, Heather, and Peach)
Favorite eyeshadow palette this month? ColourPop Going Coconuts
P.S. Speaking of my favorite January palettes, has anyone noticed that ColourPop changed the name of the Smoke Show palette to Blowin’ Smoke? I wonder why. I’m really glad I got it before the name change!
Coloured Raine owned the name for one of their pre-existing palettes, so CP had to change it.
Thanks, Rachel R.! ?
Your skin tone/coloring: Under my name. Magenta/red hair; hazel/green eyes.
Three products you couldn’t put down this month? ColourPop Butter Me Up Palette; Sydney Grace Pressed Blush in Paris Skies; Milani Conceal + Perfect Foundation Stick in Porcelain.
Favorite cheek product this month? Sydney Grace Pressed Blush in Paris Skies and Wet n Wild ColorIcon Blush in Blazen Berry.
Favorite eyeshadow palette this month? ColourPop Butter Me Up and PML Dark Galaxy.
My intergalactic journeys continue as well.
It’s so pretty and was so hard to get a hold of. We have to get a lot of use out of it, don’t we? : )
Somehow the Butter Me Up palette got past me. The shade On a Whimsy looks amazing!
Seraphine, Whimsy is utterly beautiful, with a bit of a duochrome to it. I love the palette, and I’m finding it more versatile than I thought it would be. The color story is just incredible looking on the eyes.
Your skin tone/coloring: Below my name
Three products you couldn’t put down this month? “Couldn’t put down” sounds like something was really exciting. I don’t feel that way about any of my makeup these days.
Favorite cheek product this month? Becca Mineral Blush in Wild Honey
Favorite eyeshadow palette this month? UD Born to Run. I am spending the month in Florida and decided to bring only one palette with me. This one is perfect. Not only can I create warm and cool eye looks but Good As Gone works as a brow powder and Still Shot works as a blush. I rarely use highlighter but Breakaway would work for that if I wanted.
Your skin tone/coloring: Very fair with neutral undertones, grey hair and deep brown eyes. I have dry, mature skin.
Three products you couldn’t put down this month? I have worn Lisa Eldridge Rose Skyscraper at least 2 or 3 times a week. Not exactly a winter colour but I don’t religiously follow those rules. I have mostly been doing neutral looks and have been using a golden oldie, Benefits Natural Eyes palette almost exclusively.
Favorite cheek product this month? Still loving my Dior blush in 999.
Favorite eyeshadow palette this month? The above mentioned Benefit palette. I had forgotten how much I love the shades in that palette. Silk Teddy being a favorite.
Your skin tone/coloring: Pale, warm skin, blue eyes, tealish hair
Three products you couldn’t put down this month? Milani Soft Focus Glow Complexion Enhancer in Nude Glow–I have only ever seen this on Amazon so far though and never heard anyone talk about it, so I must be in the minority with this; UD Starfire eyeliner from the little holiday set a couple of years ago; Becca Moonstone
Favorite cheek product this month? Becca LE year of the rat Moonstone highlight!
Favorite eyeshadow palette this month? Lime Crime Venus XL, which is kinda the perfect Valentine’s palette for me
Your skin tone/colouring: Porcelain, with pink undertones

Pixi Beauty Reflex Light, Naked 2 and bareMinerals Soft and Smokey are the ones that I have used the most of in the past month, although I do try to rotate my palettes a lot.

Three products you couldn’t put down this month?
MILK hydro grip primer
Scott Barnes pressed powder ALABASTER
PMG highlighter trio
Favorite cheek product this month?
Tom Ford skin Illuminator FIRE LUST – I keep returning to this product periodically – it gives a lovely glow as well as hint of blush and when I set it with a lightly pigmented powder (SB), it darkens up beautifully for a subtle flush and sheen. I don’t know if it’s still in stock but I got a whole bunch of it in the larger 20mL size and have already gone through one of these, as well as the newer 15mL size (available on Selfridges). They are the same formula!
