I just want to say most Melt Collections come close, because I still get the “value” out of purchasing that I expected (to swatch and to review), but Melt is so inconsistent.
I have been trying to cut back on skincare purchases, even backups, because I have a lot of skincare that I need to test out and get through first, so I think I have been successful there–especially in the last four to five months.
It is hard to admit, but I have become lazier with my routine and have not kept up with it as well in the last few months. I’ve been trying to be more mindful about taking the time, because my skin was in better shape when I was more consistent.
I hope we’ll see greater diversity in product offerings, e.g. more comprehensive blush ranges, from more brands. I’d love to see more satin and pearl-finish blush/eyeshadow products. I’d also love to see smaller-format eye palettes, like quads.
Eyeshadow is really my first love, so yes, absolutely! I am also someone who tends to get excited by high-qualify formulas, so even if the color scheme has been done before, but if it’s from a formula I love, then I am game. That being said, if the brand has already launched a similar color scheme...
Charlotte Tilbury and Tom Ford for sure; they seem to just redo the same thing over and over again with little variation in-between.
LORAC’s holiday palettes – something about those desaturated neutrals called to me!
There aren’t any that come to mind where I’ll be tapering down per se. There are a few brands that I’m not currently reviewing that I used to review, but I already stopped buying from this year (like Hourglass and Viseart).
They’re not totally new-to-me, but they haven’t been reviewed previously: Ace Beaute (which I shared swatches of a few weeks ago).
