Loved this bag, definitely keeping!

Doucce Posh Powder Palette ($65.00) - Love this palette, I've used it quite a few times since it came in and it's a gorgeous highlight and blush palette. The highlights are a bit on the shimmery side so I'm having to come to terms with the fact that my pores are shining through but I really love all three highlights and the bottom right blush the most!

Wander Beauty Staycation Hydrating Mask ($38.00) - This is interesting for this profile since this is an oily profile, but I'm getting into my dryer months so I'm not irritated about it. It's a good mask and I'm definitely keeping it to use weekly to keep my skin moisturized.

Viseart Petit Pro Un 1 ($30.00) - I really love the taupe shade and really just the palette in general. The mattes blend out well and the shimmers are so shimmery and gorgeous. It's just a good palette for home or (if we ever get to again) travel.

RealHer Power Wear Ombre Bronzer (You Are Golden) ($30.00) - I don't see an ombre effect here but just as a regular bronzer, it's good! It's not too warm so it'll work on me and the subtle shimmer is nice to add a bit of glow without being overly glowy.

111Skin Nocturnal Eclipse Recovery Cream ($280) -  Holy crap on a cracker, this is expensive. I've used this a bit and while my skin is moisturized after using it, it's no more moisturized than when using my Glow Recipe moisturizer, and that's so much more affordable. Now that I've tried this and it didn't do a world of difference for me, I'm going to give it to my mom to see if it does anything different for older skin. Will update if it does.

Swatches: Doucce, Viseart, RealHer.

This bag was valued at $433, which is ridiculous but that's only because of the moisturizer. Without that, it's still a good valued bag and I'm pleased with the contents. Even with the non-choice items, they were a good fit for me and I'll get good use out of everything.

As always, let me know what you thought of this month's bag in the comments below!
