I’ve purchased very little by way of colour cosmetics in 2022! There really hasn’t been much “in store” that thrilled me. Probably the most exciting thing was finding a BUXOM 24KT Stilettos eyeshadow at Winners for under $5! It’s a shade I wanted for years and never found at Sephora. Everything else worth mentioning was actually from 2021 (Chanel 5-pans, Charlotte Tilbury quads, Nars duos and a palette…MAC lipsticks which are now all discontinued…not just my beloved Craving but also Fully Fuchsia, a few others – RATS!)
MAC Face & Body Foundation (never tried it before so new to me)), Lethal Cosmetics Berlin 89 palette, Adept Cosmetics Amunet Light, Merit Lip Oil in Marrakech, NARS Bronzing Cream, NYX Bare with Me Serum concealer, Peach Slices Exfoliating Toner, Bareminerals Blonzer in Kiss of Pink, Givenchy L’Interdit perfume & Les Filles en Rouje in B.B.

Not a regular commenter but have to say that those Maybelline liquid vinyl inks have been life changing. It took me a week or so to get used to them but now I love them and wear every day. Apply and done for the day.
