Perfume, generally; I am better but there are days where I’m not wearing any (whether to test or for fun!). I’ve also slacked on my skincare routine, and since I have quite a bit of skincare stocked up, I need to be better about using masks and serums.

I need to use sunscreen on my body more often, I use it on my face no problem but then get lazy to apply it to my body. I also have so many perfumes that I need to use but since I don’t do it often I tend to forget. I would also like to use some of my eyeshadow palettes. Since I’m not very good at applying eyeshadows I just tend to forego it but applying it more often would help me practice so I can get better.
Mascara – I rarely use it (I know this is shocking to many)
Eyebrow stuff – I really like ABH’s Taupe Dipbrow but, again, I rarely think to use it – because my brows are pretty good but more because I rarely do use anything on them, I always feel like they look so heavy and “Groucho Marx-ish” though when I have done my brows (even with the ABH brown shade which I bought first), no one, including my own family has said “Wow – those BROWS”, so maybe I should do my brows daily….
Highlighter – it just looks “too much” for most situations I’m in and yet I love highlighters and have such a lot of them for someone who rarely uses them! Go figure!
• Lipstick shades that aren’t “nude.”
• Moisturizer, because I often forget and my arms really, really need it.
• Nail polish, because I’ve been very lazy about painting my toenails the past few weeks, so I haven’t worn sandals.
Like you’d perfume would be one of them. The products I REALLY need to be regular about is body skin cream (with SPF) or as a third product an SPF cream (but I haven’t found any near 50 rating in organic.). SPF’s are rated in various legitimate reviews as bad products for our health, so I’m hoping to find better ones.
NARS Laguna Bronzing Cream. I newly purchased this but I need to use it!
Patrick Ta Double Take She’s Blushing Blush Duo. Also a new purchase. I used it once but I need to wear it more!
DHC Cleansing oil. I purchased a while back. I’m working on my tub of a Wet n Wild Care Bear Cleansing Balm so I’ve used that more. I’m not crazy about the DHC but I’ve got to use it up before I buy another type product!
Just 3? LOL! In my case, it has to be getting into my entire stash far more often than I do. The pandemic has put an enormous damper on my even being inclined to do a look even 4-5 times per week like I used to. Also, over on this side of town there isn’t the same excellent level of public transit or even that many places to go to just to get out of the house.
Skincare (I’ve also been slacking a bit), Lethal Cosmetics gel pot eyeliners, and Menagerie Cosmetics Blush Palette.
1. Perfume. I actually own only one but it makes me feel happier when I wear it.
2. My eyelash curler. My eyes tend to get lost behind my glasses so anything that makes them look larger and more open is a plus.
3. Nyx Wonder Pencil as a lower waterline liner, for the same reason I should be curling my lashes.
Aveno Foaming Cleanser, I forget about it and love it. NARS powder Maldives, another I forget that makes me look pretty; and for some reason I have six bars of Claus Porto bath soaps that I will unwrap two of and bathe in them, something else that I forget that leaves me feeling pretty. All three coming out and being used!!!
Three products that I really should use more of include:
1. A wider variety of my lipsticks – I tend to use the same staple of three or four that are my favourites and ignore the rest. Of course, it would help if I actually got around to decluttering a few.
2. Not a big mascara wearer myself, and I have been using it more lately, but I should include it more often as it does make my eye looks better.
3. Foot, heal balm. My heals can get pretty rough at times and I should use a heel balm more often than I do.
1 – Lipsticks
2 – Lip colors in general. The pandemic kind of killed wearing all of it for me 🙁 Still haven’t really figured it out.
3 – Bronzer -If I wear it I do like how it looks, I just hardly ever take the time to apply some.
