Your skin tone/coloring: Light neutral skin tone, green eyes, salt & pepper hair
Most used lip product this month? MAC Teddy 2.0
Go-to cheek products this month? Clinique Cheek Pop in Pink Honey
Favorite eye palette this month? I haven’t used a palette at all this month! Just MAC Paint Pots and single shadows.
I’m a big fan of the Paint Pots, what shades do you use a lot? I love Groundwork and Indianwood, which I just found out was DC’d 🙁
Groundwork is my favorite! It is almost a one-and-done, but I add a little Naked Lunch (MAC single shadow) on top of it on my lid. When I do a look just using an eyeshadow palette, I often use Painterly as a primer/base.
Ooh, I bet that combo is pretty!
Light-Med skin tone with warm undertones, blonde hair and green eyes.
Lip – ABH Soft Brown Satin lipstick
Cheeks- Clinique Aglow blush
Eyes – Teddy Bear quad.
Your skin tone/coloring: Above with freckles, green eyes, warm brown hair.
Most used lip product this month? Probably my e.l.f. cosmetics new satin lipstick in Standing Ovation. It’s such a pretty warm nude.
Go-to cheek products this month? Glossier Cloud Paint in Beam, Rare Beauty Liquid Luminizer in Enchant, and any combo of powder blush and highlighter over top.
Favorite eye palette this month? Probably any of my SG palettes, specifically Quintessence, TropiColor and Tiny Marvels with any combo of amazing singles I have.
Your skin tone/coloring: MAC NC 20
Most used lip product this month? Tower 28 Juicebalm Tinted Lip Balm in Mix
Go-to cheek products this month? MAC Warm Soul
Favorite eye palette this month? MAC singles Soft Brown, All That Glitters, Phloof & Wedge
I love Phloof (and All That Glitters) and was really dismayed to find it had been discontinued because I was thinkin of getting a backup! (that’s how I found out it was no longer available).
The story of your makeup life Mariella – everything you love is being d/c’sd!
I know! I should put out an alert…”hey, folks, I just found a fantastic _____ (lipstick, cleanser, sunscreen, eyeliner) so if it’s something you like, better get some backups because it won’t be around much longer…”
With regard to MAC, I just don’t know what they’re thinking. On the plus side, I picked up a Powersurge eye kohl for less than half price today (I’m guessing it’s being d/c’d too, which is why there were half a dozen of them at Winners). It’s one liner I quite like so it made sense to get a backup.
Really disheartening they’ve discontinued Phloof. It’s so pretty. Most of my MAC favorites are discontinued 😭
You and me both, Erica. They keep stuff like Carbon (ugh) and get rid of so much that is really good and products that have been mainstays of the line for years.

Most used lip product this month? once again, it’s MAC Craving, followed by Shiseido Bloodstone (I realized I had to move a few of the lipsticks I keep in a kitchen drawer because they were getting “warmed up” when I used my slow cooker on that particular spot of the counter).

Favorite eye palette this month? ABH Sultry.
Your skin tone/coloring: Under my name (blue-green eyes, dark hair)
Most used lip product this month? Truthfully, it would have to be my nightly use of Laneige Lip Mask in Gummi Bears! For color products, though, I’d say that I have used many a dusty coral lip just because those go with so many of my eye looks: MUFE Wherever Walnut and Nyx Earthtone lip pencils, MAC See Sheer lipstick, PMG Labs Flesh 3 Lip balm, Fenty Gloss Bomb in Fenty Glow.
Go-to cheek products this month? Huda Tan Light Glowing Bronzer, ABH Amrezy highlighter, and Nars Afterglow Blush palette, Benefit Wanderful blush in Crystah.

I love the Rare Beauty in Happy! It’s one of those colors that kind of just works with everything.
Your skin tone/coloring: Pale olive, dark brown hair and hazel eyes.
Most used lip product this month? Fenty Skin Cherry Treat Lip Oil. I like it, but it runs out fast and the Nyx lip oil is close enough for lot less money, so I will just keep using that instead when this runs out!

I apologize for the double post! I thought the first one got lost. Then I changed my mind about favorite eye palette.
