What's Inside The Bag
So Susan Limited-Edition Makeup Bag, December 2022 - Retail Value $12
1 of 3
I love that we are still on animal-themed bags. This beta fish print is gorgeous! The colors and style remind me a little of pop art, and I love how the bright fish are off-center. These bags are easy to clean and perfect to stash any touch-up products on the go.
Jelly Pong Pong Cosmetics Nebula Eyeshadow in Planetary - Retail Value $18.oo
1 of 2
One of my absolute favorite eyeshadow formulas is cream to powder, and this performs a lot like those. Jelly Pong Pong describes the formula as an "intensely foiled spongy eyeshadow," and they are right on the money. I've had the most success applying this type of shadow with my fingertips. You can apply a very sheer wash of color or build it up to almost the shade you see in the pan. It is a lovely dark coppery red, perfect for a festive holiday look.
Trifle Cosmetics Jelly Juice in Twinkle Berry - Retail Value $12.00
Twinkle Berry is a perfect name to describe this lippie; it has a gorgeous berry pink glow with some blue shimmer that creates some cosmic dimension. I love lip products that you can swipe on and forget about them; this one is especially great because the color does not require any touchups, and it provides a glaze to your lips that makes them appear full with added moisture thanks to shea butter and vitamin e.
So Susan Cosmetics Lip Dew in Berry Burst - Retail Value $19.00
1 of 2
I received this product in a different color in October's bag, and here is what I had to say about it:
Tinted balm is 100% my jam. I love wearing a moisturizing and glossy lip, and this formula is phenomenal. It smells a little like candy, and I can't complain about the taste, either. I was so impressed with how this applied, that I actually multitasked and dabbed it on my cheeks for a monochrome lip & blush look. This shade is much darker than October's, and I really love it for a vampy, 90's look.
Jelly Pong Pong Hummingbird Palette - Retail Value $35
1 of 3
This isn't a palette I would normally reach for; I can easily say I have all of these colors in different palettes, but I was surprised by the quality of each of my swatches. This lot of pigmented neutrals could be a staple product for someone who likes to keep it simple. You have everything you need for a complete eye look, and if you're looking for an all over lid shade or to smoke out some liner, you can't go wrong with this pick.
Swatched above: Jelly Pong Pong Hummingbird Palette, Trifle Cosmetics Lip Juice, So Susan Lip Dew, Jelly Pong Pong Nebula Shadow
Verdict
This month's So Susan Color Curate has some great picks. I wasn't stoked about this month's palette at first, but it is something I will get use from. The other four products, bag included, were all winners. I especially love the So Susan Lip Dew and the Trifle Cosmetics Lip Juice, and they even look great combined. You're getting five products for $20.95, and that in itself is a great value.
