Such a nice collection! Definitely inspirational for someone who has been a shopping addict and is now dealing with the aftermath 😸

Thank you! For years, I just used SPF, the Benetint, and some lip balm. I added the Ruby Woo and a mascara when I worked a corporate job, but dropped them both unless I was going out after I left that job. I had to look a little more formal for some events last year so the collection grew and I was happy to see that I could get a mini Ruby Woo! I feel like I have a lot right now but as long as it all fits in the bag, I'm good.

What is the texture and finish of the serum? I’ve not tried this one.

Like a thick serum, and the finish is dewy, but natural. It's a nice light coverage for me. I know the company recommends half of the dropper but just a few drops is all I use.

Well that sounds like a perfect product!
I’ve noticed the shift going back to more matte finishes, and that just does not work for me. Dewy finish for life!
I’ll have to check it out. Thank you!

Oh yeah, I'm the same way! It's a really nice product. I feel silly admitting it but I love the smell of it, too. Lol. It's like Play-Doh! The smell doesn't last long at all, though. You won't smell like anything when you're wearing it.

So, most of the time I'm a moisturizer and SPF kinda gal, with a little Benetint applied so I don't look like death. Sometimes that's not enough to not scare the villagers, though. So here's my minimalist makeup collection that gets pressed into service when I have to go out in public.
