Milani- Silky Matte Bronzing Powder (# 01 Sun Light)❤️ My favourite drugstore bronzer, the shade is light enough to be used in the winter and the tone leans more cool so it doesn’t look too orange on the face. The texture is silky and smooth, product picks up nicely with a brush and doesn’t look patchy on the skin. Will try to pan this compact completely in 2026, bought it in 2022 so it’s time to finish it. Will definitely repurchase. Please give suggestions if you have a light bronzer with cooler undertone.
Elf-Poreless Putty Primer 🍥 At the time it came out I think it was a dupe for the very expensive Tatcha primer (btw what is Tatcha doing now, I remember when every influencer was using a primer and a spray from them), but now I think no one really remembers Tatcha anymore and this is a cult classic product. Everyone probably tried this product at some point, so no need to describe the texture or performance. I personally found out that grippy primers work best for me, so I would purchase those in the future (Elf grippy primer is great in my opinion, want to try the one from NYX that is in a glue bottle). Will use this one up (not a lot of product left, the edges are thin) and I have a trio of mini putty primers (classic one, matte and luminous ones) so those ones will be also used up. This is a product for my 2026 project pan.
The Balm-Mary-Lou Manizer Highlighter ✨ Cult classic product that I don’t see a lot of people use anymore (at least on the internet). Gives beautiful golden sheen, texture is smooth, lays nicely on top of other products. Will keep using in the future but wouldn’t necessarily repurchase if I ever be actually able to pan it completely. There are so many highlighters on the market with new formulas and diverse colour options that I want to try, that I feel like I wouldn’t need to repurchase a product in this category.
Fenty Beauty- Killawatt Freestyle Highlighters (# Hustla Baby) 💫 Product has the tiniest pan in the middle (middle up corner to be exact). Compact is very cute in my opinion, it’s a mini that I got in a set with lipgloss mini a long time ago. The shade is a bit deeper, works for me only in the end of summer so there is only a small window of time to use it. I wouldn’t purchase this exact product, but I’m interested in diamond bomb highlighter from Fenty.
Wet n Wild- Color Icon Single Eyeshadow (# crème brûlée) 🍮 I got this because someone on YouTube recommended (what can I say, I’m easily influenced). So this is like a beige lid setting shade, don’t really know why own it as a single when pretty much any palette has a similar shade or regular face powder works for the same purpose. But I have it in my collection and had for a long time, it didn’t get much use (shockingly) cause why would I use a single eyeshadow when I can use the same shade that is in a palette with all the other shades I’m going to use. But I will make it a goal to use it up completely cause the product is not bad, it just feels unnecessary to my collection. I will use some colourful palettes with no lid setting shade so this eyeshadow going to get used. Wouldn’t repurchase for the reasons mentioned above, but I don’t have anything bad to say about the product itself).
