When I cheated a couple weeks ago to get the 100pt samples of the BECCA Ever-Matte Poreless Priming Perfector & Pure Radiant Tinted Moisturizer Broad Spectrum SPF 30 may be a wonderful little cheat. I used both this morning and so far I am about 3 hours in and NO oily t-zone! As we know these damn products always work the 1st time beautifully so will continue to use up the samples just to make sure but if they continue to hold up these are so on my BDAY List!!!!

So far the primer is PERFECT, I did exactly as it said; warmed in my fingers and PATTED on face instead of rubbing. For me to be this far in the day and no oil is pretty good I am usually blotting way before now!!!

See all the little gems you find when shopping your own stash!!! I love Anna Sui's packaging. The only thing I have purchased though was some blotting papers ages ago. lol. I just tried my Hypnose Doll lashes the other day and I like it (it gives more length than volume though so my lashes were hitting my glasses haha). I think I will stick with regular Hypnose for now! I tossed my Better Than Sex mascara. I loved how black it was but it was getting clumpy and kind of irritating my eyes.

I also have the blush which I have yet to use!!!

My friend tried it out, and she said it dried out her skin a bit. But hopefully it's the perfect balance for your crazy humidity!! I remember when I was in Florida, the minute I stepped out the door, I felt like I needed a shower. P.S. I think I'll either be returning or exchanging my Lazy Sunday Morning. To me, it just smells like soap. I was expecting more of a clean scent, but there's a bit of citrus to it, and that's not really what I'm looking for. I did really like Flower Market when I smelled it at the store, so I'll probably test out that sample next, and if it works, going to trade it in next time I'm in LA

Besides the impulse buy of an LED light and 2 items from Mac's Aluuring Aquatics (thinking about the eyeshadow. What? I have a Nordstrom gift card!!!) I think I'm doing well for my no buy, but it might be from my swimming circumstances of paying for pool entry fees and saving up for team dues. And paying parts of gas (planned). I haven't drank since April, that's good. I have no alcohol cravings either.

hackneyfl if you check my blog you will see I cheated a little and got a lipglass from the Mac alluring aquatic launch lol. I will say, my spend total has been a 50:50 ratio on what I have spent on me vs what I have spent on my bf beauty product wise! (I am doing well, so happy for this challenge cause it has cut the beauty spending down immensely!!)
