Recent Beauty Purchases 7


e.l.f. Poreless Primer: - I thought when I got this it was the poreless putty primer, but, it is not. It smells of tea tree oil, which I hate. So just be warned if you try this it really smells of tea tree oil! It works okay. Not nearly as good as the poreless putty primer (below), but better than others.

e.l.f. All Day Stay Eyeshadow Primer: I've been using the Shadow Lock Eyelid Primer but recently ran out so when I was placing an order from e.l.f. I decided to give the All Day Stay Primer a try. I'm glad I did! It works so much better and my eyeshadow stays in place all day. Granted, it hasn't been humid here yet so I can't say how well it works if I'm outside in humid weather all day, but as far as I can tell it works really good! And at only $4 it's a great cheap buy!

e.l.f. Poreless Putty Primer: This is probably the best primer I've used. I have large pores so I am always looking to try something to minimize the appearance of them. While it doesn't typically bother me, I just find that sometimes foundation can seem to emphasize the appearance of them. Anyways, this primer works really great! You can notice a difference immediately after applying the primer. Unlike the regular Poreless Primer, this has no weird smell. Overall this is just a great product!

LaNeige Lip Sleeping Mask in Vanilla: This (as well as the next two items) were products I got for Christmas this past year and just though I would include! This has a greasy feeling and really doesn't have much of a vanilla flavor, but as a whole it works well. It even comes with a tiny little wand to use as an applicator which is nice! I won't buy lip balms and such where you have to use your finger to apply the product because that just seems gross and unsanitary, but having an applicator wand is nice because I can always clean it!

TARTE Tarteist PRO Glow to Go Highlight & Contour Palette: I like this highlight and contour palette. I have pretty fair skin, so this works well for me. It's a pretty cool-neutral palette, so no weird yellow/orange undertone. Overall just a nice little palette!

Tarte Tartelette Tease Clay Eyeshadow Palette: This is just a great little neutral palette. I'm not one for crazy eyeshadow colors, so buying larger palettes just isn't beneficial for me as they are usually filled with colors I would never use. The colors are pretty pigmented, so a little goes a long ways. But overall just a nice little palette.

Have you purchased any beauty products lately?

  1. I don't love lip products in pots either, but I did get the original Laniege Lip Sleeping Mask (the pink tub) back when K Beauty was all the rage, and I was pretty meh on it too. They do have a version in a tube at Sephora these days at least!

  2. I didn't realize there was a version in a tube, I'll have to look into that.
