Flashback Beauty Friday 91: Stila Pivotal Skin

Sticking with foundation again this week after the genie bottled Urban Decay Surreal Skin last time. I've been rummaging again and discovered yet more great things for these posts. I really need time to photograph everything so I can then sort through and decide what can be thrown out and the things that regardless of age, I just couldn't part with (i.e. the covetable and collectable). Why I was still hanging onto this one, I don't know.

Alongside the limited edition packaging I feature in my weekly Flashback Beauty Friday posts, I also share discontinued products or packaging evolution of a product over the years. Last week, I posted a fragrance for the first time, with the limited edition glass bottle of Anais Anais and today I have a discontinued foundation. I think I've only featured foundation once here; the beneFit record compact, as generally speaking, foundation tubes and bottles aren't that interesting to look at, but this bottle certainly is.

Back to a limited edition item this week after a couple of variations of BeneFit lipgloss last time. Something a bit different too, as I've never shared a fragrance in my Flashback Beauty Friday posts before.

Flashback Beauty Friday 88: BeneFit Gloss

A quicker post today after the mammoth Hard Candy Eye Shadow Quartets last week. I had the optician's the other day, my first time out of the street in 2 and a half years and the first time I've been outside since a dentist appointment in January (exciting life I lead eh?) and I wore the HC Moody palette. I've fallen in love with those palettes all over again, so I couldn't resist. The green is so pretty; a soft muted colour but it has this sheen and brightness to it that make it stand out without being garish.

Warning, there's over 40 photos in this post, so grab a cuppa! This is the post I've been teasing for weeks.  An iconic oldie and one that I just couldn't resist photographing in a big way, especially when the swatches started. I'm not kidding when I say they brought a tear to my eye, they are sooo good. Firstly, last week was the second of my lip stain pens, this time Urban Decay's offering, so click that if you have time to read it later. If you've already seen that, then read on for the mega post.
