Since I’m spoiled for choice, it’s hard for me to wear a single foundation every day, but I like to test a foundation over a few weeks so I can see how it applies and sits over my skin at different periods (many formulas have looked one way the first application and totally different on the...
I have to wear it for at least a week (consistently or else a week’s worth of wear) and see how it pairs and blends with other foundations and mascaras (I find that some foundations/concealers can make a mascara more prone to smudging!). I’m getting to the point where I sort of accept some...
Milk’s Kush mascara has a ridiculous weight to it, even though the price point isn’t as high as some mascaras. Guerlain Rouge Gs, Pat McGrath Decadence Palette, Pat McGrath LuxeTrance Lipsticks, Cle de Peau Lip Luminizers, NARS Audacious Lipsticks, and Hourglass Mineral Veil Primer.

Shiseido Benefiance Day Cream SPF 18! I really enjoy that cream, but I’ll be trying some other products before considering returning to it!
I ask myself these questions: 1) do I have time to review it, 2) is it worth reviewing, 3) are there more important things to review prior to this, and 4) can I delay the purchase until I’m closer to being able to review it.
