I love mini sized makeup. I’ve been putting off buying things so that I can take advantage of all the mini sizes that come out around Christmas. I do most of my makeup on the go so I love being able to toss all my makeup in a small pouch. Another bonus is that you can actually get through your makeup before it goes bad!

This is my mini sized Amazonian Clay busk from Tarte in the shade Paaarty! It was part of the birthday gift set from last year. I absolutely hated the lip product it came with but this blush is so great!

I have been using this blush every day for months. This little thing has really lasted a long time. It’s a super natural pink colour that goes with everything. I have some exciting news today….

I hit pan!
I actually picked it up in November of last year. I didn’t start using it until December so I managed to hit pan before the 12M mark on the back. In general I use makeup long past the expiry date but it’s nice to get pretty close for once.

Here is what it looked like when I first started using it last year.

Here is the before and after side by side. I also have a photo from a month ago:

Panning is s satisfying! After I finish this blush I have a large size NARS Orgasm that will probably take years to pan. Blushes are one of the hardest things to get through. If you are going to go sample size with anything, you should do blush. This little mini blush will last literally over a year (since it will take a few months to finish it off).
I agree with you that sample sizes are amazing. They are one of my favorite things to receive especially lip samples. I really like to purchase those mini kits from Sephora all the time.

Right? Now that I know how long it takes to pan a lipstick I really don’t want full size lipsticks anymore at all.
