I love that they’re all from your collab 🙂

For me it’s mostly been SG Tiara, SG Ristretto, and ColourPop Cufflinks. Honorable mention to my Thrive Causemetics shadow stick in Stella (champagne) for brow and inner corner highlight 🙂

Because I hardly ever wear the same look every time (although I do circle back to my favorites regularly!), it’s kinda hard to pick just 3!
But, probably been using: SG X Mel Thompson Fire Butts and Marvel, Nars Summer Moon the most this past few months.
Honorable mentions aplenty! SG X Temptalia Heart Dog, Phosphenes, Mielke Way, Menagerie Cosmetics Fruity Feast and Nocturnal, CP X Star Wars Space Pirate and Outer Rim, also Hello Happy from Botanic Panic, UD Get Down and Hot Stuff. Clearly, I’ve been in a green or purple mood quite often!

I am using up my Dose of Colors Block Party eye shadows.. I really love them.. people don’t talk about Dose of Colors much but I really enjoy the items I have purchased from their line.
I love my Pat McGrath Huetopia palette and I am also using many of my highlighters as an eye shadow when I use bronzer in the crease.. really makes for a uniform look – summer and pretty

“The Meilkie Way” …I see what you did there …haha..love that …and it looks like a perfect shimmer..
I’ve still been using Ilia The Necessary palette (warm) and love it.
I’ve been really editing down my stash due to an up coming move …
and jus a general shift in my buying preferences …
so love easy all in one palettes.

Ulta’s Beauty Junkie….thee most interesting eyeshadow I’ve ever seen!! Ulta’s Maple and MAC Naked Lunch. With Beauty Junkie I mix it in with my bronzer and it gives this incredible pinkish, copper color. Love it 🤍

Just three shimmers? Hmmm -Since I have been using my bareMinerals Soft and Smokey palette a lot lately it would be A-Ha, Eureka and In the Buff.
However, I do agree with you about Heart Dog, Mielke’s Way – from On the Horizon’s Light palette. These are divine shades. So too is Earthbound and Flying High. All beautiful shades. I wouldn’t be sorry either if I had created these…..

I just put in a big Dior order for my Dior Addict and a few lipsticks and I tossed this new Mitzah color in my bag. Michelle Wang made me buy it. I hope it’s as gorgeous as she says and the site shows it’s a keeper too!

Blaze from UD – Born To Run palette. Subtle and soft for inner corner highlight.

Mielke Way from Temptalia x SG Quintessence palette. Gorgeous shade! Honorable mention to Aurora, something about the undertones of these two shades is so pretty and versatile!

Bottom left peachy-gold shade from Viseart Solstice mini palette.
