Forever Repurchased #1


You know the drill - you find products you know you cannot live without, and you will purchase them over and over and over till the end of time.
The first product that made this list was the NARS Casino Bronzer. I used it every single day once I got it, but never thought it was anything spectacular. Cut to when I finished it and started trying out different bronzers, I just could not stop comparing them to this, and everything fell short. I needed it in my life so badly that I practically cried until my friend got it for me. Dramatic I know. Worth it? Totally.
Next up, the Chanel Vita Lumier Aqua Foundation, with all the hype surrounding this, I was very skeptical, but alas, it is probably my favorite foundation till date. Speaking of which, I need to buy a new one, ugh, the price. *weeps in a corner*
MAC Strobe Cream is a more recent purchase (been about 3 months?) but it has made it to this list. It was actually my review of wonderful product that spurred me on to write this post. Head here if you haven't seen it yet.
I never thought I'd ever have a lipstick on a list like this, because you know me, not the biggest lipstick person. But there is just something about MAC Rebel that I can quite put my finger on... is it the formula that sits on the lips so beautifully, or the colour that when blotted out looks oh so natural and lovely, perking up even the dullest of faces, or downright sexy when its full on opaque and wonderful. No matter what season or time of year, this rebellious lipstick just works. (See what I did there?)
And finally, another product I have not stopped talking about in the past few months/weeks.. Chanel Poudre Universelle Libre. The powder that doesn't look like powder on.. that just makes you glow while keeping the oils at bay... but more about this here.

What are your forever repurchased products?

  1. Bobbi Brown color corrector. Not quite sure HOW I went for so long without this. Other than that, nothing. Don't have a HG anything yet!

    1. I tried a sample of it really long ago, but it didn't do anything more for me than my moisturizer :/ Maybe I should try it again?

    2. The Beauty Flash Balm is more of a moisturizer/primer while the Strobe Cream is an illuminator/highlighter! :)

  3. Iv found a new HG product Sleek Contour kit in Medium. Initially I bought it for contouring, but the highlighter stole my heart. I would repurchase it forever.
