Agreed. This was in my first ever order from SN, and my tube's still going strong. Just a gentle, natural-looking wash of soft neutral pink. Not too light or cool or dark, no shimmer. I go back to this when I tire of fun or interesting lippies.

I've actually never finished anything other than samples from SN - I had to chuck my Aria because it went bad, the same with Vit C & P serum, and I very nearly finished the small size of BHA before I spilled it. I think I'm pretty close to finishing Ingenue and Maiden, though.

I have two more dearly departeds to add to my list. Breathless, finished yesterday, was in my second ever order from SN. My very favorite grown up adult person pink—the one I wear when I'm trying to convince people that I'm mature and responsible. And it's with a heavy heart that I announce the valiant end of Mimosa, the sheer peach that has become one of my very favorites. They will both be missed (until they're reordered).

I vowed to work my way through my lippie collection in 2012 and I'm doing that but I only seem to be finishing my favorites. :lol: Might be a slight hiccup in my plan...

I am such a makeup whore I never finish anything (and there are very few things I would repurchase, one day when I finish them I will definitely repurchase precious and homecoming queen (and probably a couple of other things, but that's about it). I have sooo many of everything though that generally all I use up is foundation and skincare.

hiya!
Besides finishing my foundation and my hg zinc powder I am just scraping the last little crumbs out of my jar of Adorn.
I never before understood the concept of a *one color wash*. I thought you either wore eye shadow or you didn't......which meant the whole thing....primer, highlighter, lid color, crease color, liner, yadda yadda yadda.
With Adorn, I just lightly dampen my brush, apply a tiny layer of Adorn from lashline to just below my brows and .....poof....magic!!!!
On me it does this cool thing where it gives me a really really subtle lid color, crease color, and highlight, and all without me doing a thing.
Some mascara and brows, and I am good to go.
I would marry it if I could.
joking,

Adorn is the only shadow I am considering buying a back up. I have used half a jar. It really is the shadow I reach for most often.

Besides skin care (cleansing oil, Vitamin C serum, AHA toner); cleansing conditioner, finishing powders (Blur, PP, TT) the only thing I used up completely is the lemon salve balm. Great idea and easy to use on cuticles.

I have purchased 4 Rare Berry lippies. Perfect colour for me. One is in the fridge as a back up.

Au revoir, Creampuff. I didn't even realize I was getting down to the nubbin on it and, suddenly, it was gone. Nice cool pink even for the warm girls who can wind up looking like a Barbie doll or a porn star when wearing a too-cool pink.

Just finished Darling! At last! Good thing I have a backup! *phew*

Besides that, Awesome Sauce Serum and Oatmeal Serum. And lots of skincare samples.
