Well folks, it’s time for a new stash. And I won’t lie, I fear I’ve bitten off more than I can chew with this one. It’s easily the most stuff I’ve ever had in my stash. But there has been so many new and exciting launches, it was hard to exclude anything. So, let’s get into my Winter Stash!
A winter stash means winter primers. The two primers I’ve picked out have yet to steer me wrong. I have the ERE PEREZ MORINGA ALL BEAUTY CREME to nourish and the GLOSSIER FUTUREDEW to add a necessary glow to my soon to be very dry skin. For the foundations, I’ve taken the ballsy choice to pick three for my stash. I have the MAC COSMETICS STUDIO RADIANCE FOUNDATION (which will be my next review after the DIOR), the MADE BY MITCHELL TRUTH TINT, and the PRADA BEAUTY PRADA REVEAL FOUNDATION.
Because I have that Made By Mitchell One Brand Recommendations post in the works, I have quite a few products from his range in my stash. I have the MADE BY MITCHELL MINI COLOUR CASE – THE CORRECTORS as my colour corrector. I’ve heard great things about this formula and I can already vouch for his cream products. For my everyday concealers, I picked the TOO FACED BORN THIS WAY MULTI USE CONCEALER and the MECCA MAX OFF DUTY SERUM CONCEALER.
For powders, I have three. Overkill? Probably. But when I mentioned that I had the new KOSAS CLOUD SET LOOSE SETTING POWDER, I had so many people request that I have it in my stash. I also have a mini of the ONE SIZE ULTIMATE SETTING POWDER which I’ve been meaning to review for ages. And because I still wanted a pressed option, I have the TOWER 28 GET SET PRESSED POWDER. Finally, I have the RIMMEL LONDON MULTI TASKER SETTING SPRAY that I forgot to add to the picture. But It’s here in spirit.
For the brows, I’ve bought back the GLOSSIER BOY BROW ARCH. While I enjoyed it the last time I had it, I didn’t use it as much as I should have. For a relative newbie, I also grabbed the MAYBELLINE BUILD A BROW. I’ve seen this one around and have liked the idea of a felt tip pen to fill my brows. I also remembered that I had the RIMMEL KIND & FREE UIVERSAL CLEAR BROW WAX. So, I added that too.
Time for the lashes. And again, ballsy choice to have three in the stash (that Rimmel review from my last stash will be coming soon). I have the new TOO FACED RIBBON WRAPPED LENGTHENING MASCARA, which is their new tubing mascara, the MADE BY MITCHELL LASH LACQUER MASCARA, and the also new REVLON ALL IN TUBING MASCARA.
Ok, here’s where I’ve started to go overboard. Because who needs six bronzers in their stash? Me, apparently. For the creams, I have the NUDESTIX NUDIES MATTE ALL OVER COLOR in BONDI BAE, the LYS NO LIMITS CREAM BRONZER STICK in MED, and the TOO FACED CHOCOLATE SOILEI BRONZING STICK in CHOCOLATE MOUSSE. For powders, I have my beloved HAUS LABS POWER SCULPT VELVET POWDER BRONZER in LIGHT 4 (mine is in the original formula, it’s since been revived), The REVLON SKINLIGHT POWDER BRONZER in CANNES TAN, and the MECCA MAX SUNLIT SKIN POWDER BRONZER in LIGHT.
And here is where I hit the water face first. What can I say, I crave variety? For the cream/liquid blushes, I have the HUDA BEAUTY BLUSH FILTER in LATTE, the AUSTRALIS DEWY & DARING BLUSH in EX-GIRLFRIEND, the GLOW RECIPE WATERMELON GLOW DEWY FLUSH in WATERMELON GLOW, and the MADE BY MITCHELL BLURSH in POSEY ROSY. On the powder side of things, I have the CHARLOTTE TILBURY CHEEK TO CHIC BLUSH in PILLOW TALK, the TOWER 28 GET SET POWDER BLUSH in PALI PUNCH, the RARE BEAUTY SOFT PINCH LUMINOUS POWDER BLUSH in HAPPY, the PATRICK TA MAJOR HEADLINES CREME & POWDER BLUSH in SHE GOES TO THE GYM, and the VANI-T MAKE ME BLUSH CREAM AND POWDER DUO in SWEET CHEEKS.
And we are done! Yeah, I certainly have my work cut out for me with this one. I skipped over some of the eye things I have in this stash because I was worried this was getting too long. As always, let me know in the comments what you would like me to specifically review. And I shall see you Tuesday with my picks from my last stash!
Cheers and love
