Firsts
*b*color Velvet Nails Magnetic Powder Finish  A gorgeous lavender with a shift and silver sparkles, nails are medium length ballet tips.  They have lasted/worn beautifully.  HIGHLY impressed these were $1.25.  *b*pure Hydrating Night Lip Mask  SO excited to finally find this and SO happy that it lives up to the hype.  Daughter next day 'go back and clear the shelf!!!!!!!!'. lol  It is that good.
*elf Thirst Burst Pore-fecting Toner  This is magic.  Feels good, somehow exfoliates AND hydrates?
*elf Blush Halo Glow in Magic Hour  Pretty in moderation.  I'm old enough that too much is TOO much. lol

*Nue Skin Filter Serum  Feels good on skin, a decent serum.

Mar 13 Firsts and Finals

Firsts
*bPure Cooling Lip Serum  Definitely has a cooling feeling.  It's not super hydrating, but it's not bad.
*bPure Hydrating Night Lip Mask  SO excited to finally find this one!  Laneige who?  This is fantastic.  I get the hype.
*bPure Hydrogel Eye & Lip Mask combo pack  Eye masks were great, juicy, stayed in place as I moved around.  Lip mask fell apart when I tried to pick it up.  Eye masks yes, lip mask epic fail.
*bPure Sprinkles Face Mask  I admit, I bought it because it was cute.  BUT ... It was actually amazing.  SUPER juicy!  I spread it on, then spread excess goo over my neck.  This mask is SO hydrating!
*Soft as Heel masks  I am super impressed.  Went on easy, super easy to wear as I moved around (I did wear socks over).  There was a definite improvement.

Firsts
*Fenty Suede Powder Blush in Petal Poppin  Excellent blendability and wear time.  It's PIGMENTED, so just a tap on the pan is enough.
*Lorac Pro to Go blush in Coral  Good wear time, but the shade is too pale for me so I passed to my paler daughter.
*Power Stick Body Spray in Pacific Nights  Nice scent!  Smells more expensive than it is.
*stila Stay All Day Shimmer Liquid Lipstick in patina  Pretty shade, a smidge dark, but pretty.  The wear is insane!  Not drying.
