You've noted here some fun ways to experiment that I'll definitely try out. :)<br /><br />Loved the posts about the alphabet blush! Such an original idea, really. I don't know if I'm brave enough to rock it on the street, but I'll definitely try it out at home, haha.Carla @ Blush Paradehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14915666311512586975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7589727970044632991.post-3227327938183175402015-03-14T14:52:22.600-04:002015-03-14T14:52:22.600-04:00Coral Reef is so preeeetty!

I c...This post is chock-full of great suggestions!! I can't think of anything else... hmm, I do use blush as shadow, sometimes, e.g. I saw that coral/pink e/s are making a comeback (like Burberry spring) so I usually just find a blush shade in my stash that kinda match, or match with layering. Usually I'd find one. <br /><br />Putting things in frequently-reached spaces also help. All the lip balm/gloss I put in my purse always got used up first, ditto with anything with sunscreen (hand cream with sunscreen can be used in a pinch to cover face before going out). I also decant things and spread them around the bags (gym, diaper, purse) such as cream blush, foundation, concealer, etc. Clairehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18179420902933819052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7589727970044632991.post-48913595490778599342015-03-14T00:51:30.377-04:002015-03-14T00:51:30.377-04:00I've been mixing my foundations in an effort t...I've been mixing my foundations in an effort to use up my NARS sheer glow which is a part of my Project Make A Dent. But what I also find very effective is carrying only one lipstick in my make-up bag. I tend to re-apply lipstick multiple times a day and if I only have one option, then I tend to use it up.ahhhsoNeohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11308961353635087232noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7589727970044632991.post-32744266195079383192015-03-13T01:21:05.864-04:002015-03-13T01:21:05.864-04:00Love all the new ideas in this post, many that I&#...Love all the new ideas in this post, many that I'd not thought to do with my own stash.

And I've also tried mixing them up. In my honest opinion I only like the classical usage of lipstick. The other techniques were too dry for my lips (speaking of lipliner or powdering it!) or they disappeared after a few minutes xD Concerning blushes and Bronzers, I use some of them as eyeshadows ;-)<br />When it comes to placements I totally aggree to Japanese fashon and beauty magazines. I don't get used to the western way of smokey eyes, cut crease and stuff - I like the Asian way much more! It's the way I wear eye make up every day.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7589727970044632991.post-19864114635484662712015-03-12T12:42:34.731-04:002015-03-12T12:42:34.731-04:00Your adherence to Project Make-a-Dent is truly adm...Your adherence to Project Make-a-Dent is truly admirable, and I love these looks, especially the gradient lip. I don't usually layer my lip products because I want each shade to show up in its "purest" form (i.e. I'm completely neurotic), but you've inspired me to try some gloss layering. I rarely wear my glosses anyway, so I might as well experiment with them. And sigh, I miss Kate's posts on Japanese beauty. :(<br /><br />By the way, I can't believe your tube of Coral Reef is still good!

I have been trying to use up a lot of stuff too for the past many months now and while I actually wear very little makeup day to day I have been trying to be better with eye makeup without looking too made up!

I like to mix foundations as well, but I have a hard time using up any of mine. Seems impossible. Lipsticks however, go pretty fast if I remember to reapply a few times a day. Too bad I'm staying home most of the time now, so I don't even need to apply makeup. There goes any dent I want to make.
