So what have I purchased during the last three months - so much for trying to stick to a low buy. Small little temptations in Target, Sephora or online sales. Also a mini holiday haul - I think actually the least purchases I have made whilst on a holiday in years.
Shampoo, lip, eye products and pimple patches
Makeup brushes, eye masks and makeup remover wipes
Herbal Essences - Rose hips Shampoo (100 ml): This is the perfect size for travel, and with my summer vacation around the corner this was the perfect little pick me up at Target.
Elf - Liquid velvet eyeshadow in extra toasted (4.4 g): This came highly recommended on social media. It is a bit too warm for my liking though and still have not mastered how to how to use it.
The Inkey list - Hydrocolloid invisible pimple patches (22 patches): This I saw recommended on social media for bug bites, so I decided to pick one of these up - I got a bite of some sort after being barefoot in my garden in Iceland, and put one on before bed, and I think it worked.
Nyx - Fluff and snatch brow powder pen in brunette (1 g): I came across this in one of my trips to Target. It works ok, but not great, I do prefer other eyebrow products over this.
Versed - Lip frame defining lip liner in debut (0.5 g): This is supposed to be a dupe for The Rhode lip liners, so I did get tempted to purchase this in Target. The color is perfect.
BK Beauty x Nikki La Rose N17: This I grabbed during a BK beauty sale over the summer. The black side is supposed to be for powder and the white side is for creams and liquids.
BK Beauty x Nikki La Rose N16: This I purchased to use with cram and or liquid eyeshadows. Too bad BK launched cream stick blushes just days after I ordered. Otherwise I might have been tempted to order one blush as well.
Maskiss - Collagen Eye mask smoothing and cooling (2 x 6 g): A passenger gifted us these masks during one of the recent flights.
Neutrogena - Makeup remover ultra soft cleansing towelette (8 towels): Another passenger gift.
24K gold eye mask (7.5 g): This eye mask was also gifted to me while at work.
Korff - 365 protection sun repair SPF 50+ (40 ml): After I managed to leave all my sunscreens in a cosmetics bag at a beach in Montenegro I had to grab some sunscreen. This was the first I grabbed. Ironically about 30 minutes after I had purchased these my bag was found!! So I ended up only using this for one day, but I felt it slipping and sliding on my face during that day and has a very distinctive smell (somewhere between herbal and chemical - can not put my finger on the smell), and I have a funny susception that it will not pair well with my skin and my perioral dermatitis, but I will have to give it a try one day soon.
Garnier Ambre Solaire - Hydra 24h protect hydrating protection lotion 30 (200 ml): This I grabbed in the supermarket Voli in Montenegro, it was the one available in store that appealed the most to me. And this might be a good sunscreen. But again I just used it for one day.
Golden Rose - Mega volume & length City style mascara (9 ml): I came across this in a Cosmetics Market store whilst on a holiday in Montenegro, it was on sale, it was supposed to cost 2 Euro and some cents, but was on sale for 1 Euro and some cents. I had just finished my last tube of this mascara which I purchased in Turkey a few years back. So this ended up coming home with me.
Nivea Cream (30 ml): I have not used this in years, but one of the passengers gave the entire crew one bottle each. So now I can try it again.
Let's see how the low buy will go from here!
