A great blush will also blend itself, while a good one is blendable, buildable, and long-wearing.
A great lipstick wears longer, fades better, and is more than a little hydrating.
A good mascara will lengthen and add a little volume, while a great one will length, add volume, and a bit of curl!
The tone. A good bronzer has a decent tone but great texture, blendability, etc., while a great one is just that perfect tone and depth for my skin tone.
A great moisturizer will have a lightweight texture that sinks in well but does heavy-duty hydration, too! A good one might not have the best texture but is still very effective.
A good eyeshadow palette will have a couple of combos that I see instantly, eyeshadow that’s pretty easy to use with little fallout, good pigmentation, and decent longevity. A great eyeshadow palette is when every eyeshadow is fantastic in quality, and there are lots of ways I can see myself using...
It’s been two months or so since I did a big organization/clean-out. It was shortly after formally announcing I was going to step back and work a little less on the blog, and it encouraged me to really start to tackle my archives!
It’s very seldom that I do, otherwise I would need even more space than my makeup takes up, lol! I might keep particularly interesting press kits or boxes for a couple of months on display and then eventually recycle.
I will be eagerly listening, because this is probably the longest and worst makeup rut I’ve ever found myself in. I opted to clean and reorganize the garage over playing with makeup last weekend, LOL!
