Five on Friday - October 30, 2020

Happy Friday everyone! Hope you all had a great week! I took today off, so I had a nice short week! (Although, I was sadly planning on prepping for a Halloween party and clearly that isn't going to happen this year - Alberta lowered our indoor gathering numbers to 15 people due to our covid numbers shooting up the past month!)

Even though I'm wearing far less makeup lately, I'm still keeping up with my Monthly Makeup Baskets just so I can use everything in my collection! The products I focused on in October were:

November 2019 - Monthly Empties & Month in Masks

Time to dig in to my beauty garbage from November! 

Some products were received as PR - this post contains affiliate links

Too Faced Hangover Replenishing Face Primer ~ sample shown (full size is $45.00 CAN). A replenishing face primer that hydrates, smoothes, and brightens skin for a dewy, healthy looking finish.

This was a really hydrating primer - I liked the faint coconut scent and it was really nourishing. With my combo/oily skin I could probably only get away with using this in the Winter! 
Repurchase: Probably not

October 2018 - Monthly Empties + Month in Masks

Time to look at my monthly Makeup Garbage! 

Quo by ORLY Instant Artist White Polish ~ $13.60 CAN. Bring out your inner creativity with Orly Instant Artist Crisp White Lacquer Based Nail Lacquer and take your designs to the next level.

This was a really good nail art polish, but why is it almost $14 now?! Also, where did nail art polishes go at the drugstore?! I've been to a few and can't find them so I might have to pay to get this one again! 
Repurchase: Likely 

June 2018 - Monthly Empties and Month in Masks

Time for a look at my beauty garbage:

Make Up For Ever Step 1 Skin Equalizer Primer ~ $45.00 CAN. A makeup primer that assists with balancing the skin's texture and tone for smoother, more even, and longer-lasting makeup wear. 

This was a pretty good primer - I thought it worked well to smooth out pores and make foundation application easier. This actually made my favorite products back in Feb. 2016 and I still like it. This bottle still has a bit in it, but it's getting old and I found it wasn't applying to my skin the same way so time to get rid of it! 
Repurchase: Yes, eventually...

Happy Friday the 13th! Hope you all had a great week! Ours was good and busy! It's hard to believe I only have one full week left off before I'm back to work - I feel like I have so much left to get done before I go back! Ack! I have a feeling next week is going to be really busy!

I have started prepping for everything next week and I had to get some birthday shirts made for Elliott's birthday! I actually photoshopped the pictures myself with special fonts, clip art etc. then printed them on iron-on transfer paper and ironed them on! We are doing a cookie monster cake smash (really only because we got a free one!) and a minion themed birthday party! (I am also making a shirt for his actual birthday too; but, I managed to mess up printing that one!) Anyways, can't wait to show you guys more details over the next 2 weeks!
