Life is Short. Buy the Makeup.

It's time for empties again! I have quite a few this time, many of them deluxe sample sizes. I've been trying many new skincare items and using up some staple items in my routine.  Let's get in to what items I would and would not re-purchase. Here are my thoughts and mini reviews! 

Makeup & Beauty Favorites! I have used up quite a few beauty products in the last month, mostly due to the harsh cold weather outside.

This retails for $72 in-stores and online at Ulta. Full size is 2.6 fl ounces.
