It was well-loved, thoroughly adoredd (as you can tell by the state of the pot), and nothing yet has come close to the texture, finish, or wear. Unfortunately, the current version isn&#8217;t the same. RIP(erfection).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.marcjacobs.com\/\"><strong>Marc Jacobs <em>(Brown)ie<\/em> Highliner Gel Pencil<\/strong><\/a>: Another discontinued product, and one I&#8217;m genuinely heartbroken over. I&#8217;ve tried every (brand-proclaimed) waterproof, smudge-proof, budge-proof, long-wear liner (pencil, gel, liquid, hybrids) and none last more than a few hours on my eyes\u00a0<em>except\u00a0<\/em>the Marc Jacobs Highliners. This matte brown was flattering, too: velvety and rich, nearly the same color as my irises.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/3KeEJhS\"><strong>Clio Sharp, So Simple <em>03 Cacao<\/em><em>\u00a0Brown<\/em>\u00a0Waterproof Eyeliner<\/strong><\/a>: Unfortunately, this pencil smudges but it&#8217;s not nearly as bad as others (American ones) on the market. A drier formula lends longevity to the finish, but what makes this pencil reign supreme is the shape. It&#8217;s about 2-3mm: precise, ultra-fine, and perfect for defining the inner corners and adding lift to the outer edges (a game-changer for anyone with monolids, in particular).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/3AkQdf0\"><strong>Anastasia Beverly Hills <em>Dark Brown<\/em> Brow Definer<\/strong><\/a>: This is my second pencil. I prefer it to <a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/2VSZkDi\">Brow Wiz<\/a> because I&#8217;m lazy; Definer boasts a generous, triangle-shaped tip that makes shaping and filling a breeze. Less than five seconds are needed per eye, seriously.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/3AFm37M\"><strong>Fresh\u00a0<em>Ros\u00e9\u00a0<\/em>Sugar Lip Treatment<\/strong><\/a>: Are there better balms on the market? Absolutely. But none are as nostalgic as this unscrew-to-reveal metal tube because in high school, this is what\u00a0the\u00a0<em>That Girl\u00ae<\/em> of the 2000s had in their tiny Coach bags and Louis Vuitton pochettes. (I was still in my EOS and tinted Blistex era then.) This petal pink, however, is one of the prettiest tints I&#8217;ve tried.

The texture of this moisturizer is lovely: midweight and melts into skin beautifully. No tackiness or slickness is left behind, just a hint of dewiness.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/decortecosmetics.com\/collections\/moisturizers\/products\/aq-cream\"><strong>Decort\u00e9 AQ Brightening Cream<\/strong><\/a>: I have a few Decort\u00e9 products and while I&#8217;m scrambling to repurchase them at this point in my life, there&#8217;s nothing negative to say either. If you don&#8217;t mind fragrance, this is one of those creams that just smells\u00a0<em>rich.<\/em> Points must be awarded for the packaging, too: it&#8217;s a welcome change from the usual &#8220;luxe&#8221; look.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Boiron-Calendula-Sunburn-Moisturizes-Ingredient\/dp\/B00DEYERDU\/\"><strong>First Aid Calendula Cream<\/strong><\/a>: I bought this because of a semi-viral TikTok. While I can&#8217;t definitively say I agree with all the healing claims, I did find it comparable to the Etude House moisturizer in how it felt protective, barrier-supporting even. Love the texture of this too; there&#8217;s a little more slip that makes it great under makeup.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/3CxBmRr\"><strong>Kahi Wrinkle Bounce Balm<\/strong><\/a>: Also on my second one of this moisturizing stick. I absolutely bought it because of its prime product placement in every K-drama ever and am pleasantly surprised. Is it wrinkle-smoothing? Not really; moisturization is doing the legwork when it comes to ironing out dehydration-induced lines. The overall experience though? Exquisite. I love anything in a stick, the balm glides across effortlessly, and product sinks into skin for a silky-smooth finish. The fragrance is incredible, too. I want it bottled up as a perfume and infused in a full bodycare line, now.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/3wqh2xl\"><strong>Cultus Artem Moisture Milk<\/strong><\/a>: I have the full size of this. I&#8217;m still trying to figure out of this is causing my skin to break out, but I almost don&#8217;t care because (1) the texture and finish are beautiful (2) my skin looks like glass immediately and for the first few days of use (3) the scent is to die for. Beautiful brand, beautifully executed skincare.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/3dUBIat\"><strong>Cultus Artem Moisture Cream<\/strong><\/a>: This is about 1.5x richer and just as gorgeous as the lighter milk. Loved this as a neck and d\u00e9colletage cream.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/3wqjBiZ\"><strong>Embryolisse Radiant Eye Stick<\/strong><\/a>: I&#8217;ve exhausted my stash (I cleaned out a Parisian pharmacy during my last pre-COVID trip), and it&#8217;s taking more willpower than I imagined to resist ordering another online. There&#8217;s something about buying beauty products from a French pharmacy (and not just because the European formulas are elite and the prices notably better)&#8230; but I digress. I&#8217;m enamored with this teeny-tiny stick. It&#8217;s perfect for a late-night or post-flight refresh., and a must for insomniacs.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/3PFlcbq\"><strong>La Mer The Eye Balm Intense<\/strong><\/a>: Pictured above are tiny samples because I have\u00a0<em>very<\/em> nice friends who are generous with deluxes; not pictured are the five? 10-plus? tubes <em>and<\/em> tiny pots <em>and\u00a0<\/em>full-sized jars I&#8217;ve gone through over the years. It&#8217;s my favorite eye cream of all time. Texture&#8217;s immaculate, finish is sublime. It perfectly primes the delicate under-eye before concealer.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/3chkl3c\"><strong>Versed Smooth Landing Advanced Retinoid Eye Balm<\/strong><\/a>: I love Versed, period. Product, point of view, price point\u2014all of it\u2014and this eye treatment is no exception. Those tiny fine lines under my lower lash line are noticeably softer, as are the ones around my neck (yep, used this as a targeted neck treatment, too). A tip: warm up the balm between your fingertips to pick up and apply product more smoothly (it&#8217;s like a super-firm Vaseline in weight).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sulwhasoo.com\/int\/en\/products\/essential-lip-mask-moisture.html\"><strong>Sulwhasoo Essential Lip Mask Moisture<\/strong><\/a>: Would repurchase for the packaging alone, but in terms of treatment: worth it. Even the lightest swipe adds cushiony softness and a plump bounce to dry lips. Loved this as the last step of my evening skincare routine, but also as a moisturizing gloss over lip liner, too.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/3AFniDY\"><strong>COSRX Advanced Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence<\/strong><\/a>: I was resistant for so long, but yes.

The brand has stunning presentation and formulations from what I can see so far, and I&#8217;m fairly certain that this was what kept my skin clear at the top of the year. (L.A.&#8217;s hard water and heavy pollution are still wreaking havoc on my skin, two years later.)<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/3Kw0SZj\"><strong>Up &amp; Up Maximum Strength 10% Benzoyl Peroxide Gel<\/strong><\/a>: Re, skin in terrible condition (as noted above). I&#8217;ve not used an intense acne treatment in at least a decade, but I found that this was actually helpful in getting rid of tiny, under-the-surface bumps.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/3CqVggI\"><strong>Zitsticka HYPERFADE Dark Spot Patches<\/strong><\/a>: I&#8217;ve tried Hero&#8217;s brightening patches and probably needed to give them more time. These, however, make a visible difference after one wear. Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation isn&#8217;t erased completely even after a few consecutive nights\u2014let&#8217;s be realistic, here\u2014but Zitsticka HYPERFADE definitely speeds up the healing time.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/2VIRPyy\"><strong>Sunday Riley Good Genes<\/strong><\/a>: What can I say. When my skin isn&#8217;t on this stuff, I know. And when it&#8217;s on Good Genes, <em>I know<\/em>. Countless bottles of all sizes have been loved &#8217;til the very end. This is a forever favorite for me.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/3ciUmIA\">The Inkey List Retinol<\/a><\/strong>: This is my first product from the brand, can you believe? It&#8217;s often compared to The Ordinary (given the price point and hero-ingredient-focused products) but I think if you&#8217;re looking for more &#8220;active&#8221; formulations or gratifying results, The Ordinary is a better bet. From this experience, but also from looking at the ingredient lists, The Inkey List is best suited for anyone who is just getting into skincare and curious about buzzy ingredients or product categories. This serum was neither here nor there for me (my skin isn&#8217;t reactive, but it&#8217;s responsive\u2014and years in beauty have allowed me to know what works for me well within a week).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/3wryB02\"><strong>PCA Skin Pigment Gel<\/strong><\/a>: I purchased this on recommendation and was expecting noteworthy results. I didn&#8217;t see those, unfortunately, but when I passed it to my brother to try (he has drier skin), it worked like a charm. Post-breakout marks were virtually gone within a few days of consecutive use.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/sonaturalusa.com\/products\/dia-effect-whitening-aurora-serum\"><strong>So Natural Dia Effect Whitening Aurora Serum<\/strong><\/a>: I despise &#8220;whitening&#8221; products on principle (please note, I know this blanket statement doesn&#8217;t address the complicated nuances). I don&#8217;t usually take recommendations when shopping in stores, but I make an exception for specialty boutiques\u2014like French pharmacies or a Korean beauty store, where this was suggested. This didn&#8217;t whiten (thankfully), but it did bring out a natural brightness while diminishing light hyperpigmentation.<\/p>\n<h1 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>SUNSCREEN<\/strong><\/h1>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"16220\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/kimberlypearl.co\/blog\/the-review-beauty-empties-so-far\/empties-sunscreen-spf-review\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kimberlypearl.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/empties-sunscreen-spf-review.jpg?fit=2100%2C1575&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"2100,1575\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"empties sunscreen spf review\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;empties sunscreen spf review&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kimberlypearl.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/empties-sunscreen-spf-review.jpg?fit=840%2C630&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-16220\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kimberlypearl.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/empties-sunscreen-spf-review.jpg?resize=840%2C630&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"empties sunscreen spf review\" width=\"840\" height=\"630\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kimberlypearl.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/empties-sunscreen-spf-review.jpg?w=2100&amp;ssl=1 2100w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kimberlypearl.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/empties-sunscreen-spf-review.jpg?resize=300%2C225&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kimberlypearl.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/empties-sunscreen-spf-review.jpg?resize=1024%2C768&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kimberlypearl.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/empties-sunscreen-spf-review.jpg?resize=1536%2C1152&amp;ssl=1 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kimberlypearl.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/empties-sunscreen-spf-review.jpg?resize=2048%2C1536&amp;ssl=1 2048w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kimberlypearl.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/empties-sunscreen-spf-review.jpg?resize=1680%2C1260&amp;ssl=1 1680w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kimberlypearl.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/empties-sunscreen-spf-review.jpg?resize=600%2C450&amp;ssl=1 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 840px) 100vw, 840px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vacation.inc\/products\/sun-screen\"><strong>Vacation Inc. Classic Lotion SPF 30<\/strong><\/a>: I prefer higher SPFs, but aside from the sun protection factor, this was a great body lotion for quick errands in the neighborhood. Affirmative on the &#8220;world&#8217;s best-smelling sunscreen&#8221; claim, too.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/3AK8cNi\"><strong>Nivea UV Super Water Gel SPF 50 PA+++<\/strong><\/a>: ALL CAPS, BECAUSE THIS IS WORTH THE HYPE.

I want a vat of this stuff, now.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/3PJzjwo\"><strong>MadHippie Luminizing SPF 29<\/strong><\/a>: Again, the protective factor is a little low on me\u2014and this one\u00a0<em>feels<\/em> like a mineral sunscreen (if you&#8217;re darker than a warm\/olive medium, you will be blending for a\u00a0<em>long<\/em> time). It was pretty though. Luminizing; true to its name. If you have normal to dry skin, you won&#8217;t mind wearing two (proper) fingerfuls, but if you&#8217;re combo to oily, use it as a neck and chest moisturizer. Slather it all over your d\u00e9colletage for a beautiful glow.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/3PFKfeB\">COSRX Aloe Soothing Sun Cream SPF 50 PA+++<\/a><\/strong>: The Japanese Nivea SPF above was perfect for spring\/summer; this Aloe-infused cream was a dream for winter. Another superb sunscreen.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/3CtQgrI\"><strong>Thank You Farmer Sun Project Silky Calming Sun Stick 50+<\/strong><\/a>: I love this, too.

MAKEUP Glossier Black Boy Brow: It was revolutionary at launch, and though newcomers have since surpassed the iconic grooming gel-pomade, I still come back to it (this is my third tube)\u2014specifically for their shade of black, and because this was the first brow product that made me understand why eyebrows make all the difference. Glossier Stretch Concealer: The original, pre-reformulation. It was well-loved, thoroughly adoredd (as you can tell by the state of the pot), and nothing yet has come close to the texture, finish, or wear. Unfortunately, the current version isn&#8217;t the same. RIP(erfection). Marc Jacobs (Brown)ie Highliner Gel Pencil: Another discontinued product, and one I&#8217;m genuinely heartbroken over.
